Ret won, but he's not the better player. Congratulations to him though, looking forward to see him play against Polt

We should be rooting for Ret people, not complaining about balance! These are exciting times!

I love to see Ret play solid and win. Even game one, I was so happy up to the 16 minute mark. I completely agree with the way Ret plays ZvP! As long as he can make the correct reads, he has an answer for everything.

Dno Game 1 was the only game I didn't like. Superfast broods is nice, but if Protoss scouts it and drops a stargate around 150 and gets a mothership quick enough, the protoss should have an unkillable army.

Yes, he won this match, but no he's not the better player.


Sorry he proved today he is, tomorrow who knows.

I really hate this logic:

-Player A wins a game today: oh he's the better player!!
-Player A loses a game tomorrow: He's no longer the better player!!!

You people have to learn how you write what you want to say, when you say someone is "better" than another one, you're talking about a career long thing, you're talking about trajectory, achievements, and skill shown over a long period of time. If you want to say someone was better in a specific game, then say "Player A was the better player on this specific game or match".

MC can lose a game to Huk, does that make Huk a better SC2 player than MC? No way in hell, MC has proven himself in much greater leagues and has remained relevant to the Protoss lineup. Does that mean Huk played better on that match? well of course, he won, duh.

As usual, since Ret is in TL, he is awarded right away to be the better player than Genius, after one series.

Can anyone actually say that Ret > Genius overall with a straight face?

there are tons of really good poker players on this site.

Well I'm not atleast. I only all-in.

i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Games first, accomplishments second. bitbybit was a code s players.

Games first? Aldelscott and Goody are better than Mvp and Nestea it's official !



no, i mean look at the games and examine how the players play.

He played better in this series, he is not the better player. Wtf is wrong with you guys? Because of bullshit like this we have a new "best player" every couple days.

Did I mention how much I'm missing HerO here? He'd be crushing every face in this tournament about now. Now that Genius is gone I really see Polt winning it.

It's been a while since I've seen Ret's ZvT. Does he still like muta-ling?

I'm happy Ret won but wtf was that Genius, what kind of play did he expect Ret to play.. No early harrass, the typical strategy is that roach push and he plays right into it.. Just bad play by Genius..

No early harass? he did a stargate opening, wich is pretty much the only viable "harass" that isnt an all in.

Care to enlighten us what Genius could have done differently? he reacted perfectly to Rets build but its not possible to get out enough colossus/units to hold that stephano push.


Stargate play on that map is highly outdated and Stargate opening plays perfectly into the current meta of three hatch roach push, which is what ret did. He got three Overlords? While I will correct myself and say sure that was early harrass, gimme a break. I would hope Genius would know that it wasn't going to work unless he highly under valued Ret.

Blink stalker heavy warp gate/robo with immortal's would own that opening then getting Archons/high temp and he crushes ret's roach push. (He probably wouldnt have got Hyrda's because there would be no stargate so even if he went for spire, high temp still works)

sorry, its stephano.

nerchio and stephano are pretty comparable vZ I'd say

Man, FINALLY A GOOD, IN DEPTH, KNOWLEDGEABLE INTERVIEW WITH THE WINNER OF A GAME IN ANY SC2 TOURNAMENT IN HISTORY OF THE GAME!

That's what happens when you let someone that knows whats up do the interview instead of some airhead chick. Not a fan of Incontrol, but he's good at commentating and doing interviews like that.


Guess now we only need to give Incontrol a decent boob job and he will tour the SC2 tournaments forever...

Dreamhack really lucked out that foreigners that could actually win games vs koreans made it to the top of their tournament bracket.
