lol

OH MY GOD QXC HAS LOST TO

Puzzle, a Code S Protoss
Polt, a former GSL Champion with great results in international tournaments
MorroW, one of the top foreign Zergs who has beaten some great players ZvT
Sheth, someone who has taken Bo3s ZvT off Code S players
MC, the most accomplished Protoss in the world and 2 time GSL Champion

MY GOD HE MUST BE TERRIBLE! HE HASN'T IMPROVED AT ALL SINCE 2010! WHO CARES ABOUT ANY GAMES HE'S PLAYED RECENTLY, WHO CARES THAT HE HAS ONLY JUST STARTED TO PLAY FULL TIME AGAIN (last time he played full time he all-killed IM), NO, LET'S FOCUS ON THE FACT THAT HE IS 1-5 IN BY FAR THE HARDEST NASL GROUP. BY GOD, I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW MUCH THIS GUY SUCKS.

White-Ra is only just better than qxc at 2-4! White-Ra is a horrible player too! What a scrub record!

rofl @ all the qxc fanboys popping out as of sudden.

Looks as funny as with the IdrA fanboys, when you dare to criticize where criticism is due xD

Yes I do think qxc is a bad player, now cry on pls...

I'm not a qxc fanboy. If I was a fanboy, he would be in my signature. Sign of someone who can't come up with any decent rebuttals is someone who just says "LOL LOOK AT FANBOYS! THEY DISAGREE WITH MY UNINFORMED OPINION SO THEY MUST BE RABID FANBOYS!"

I'm simply calling you out on your utter idiocy. You have yet to form a coherent argument for why you think qxc is a bad player. Using his 1-5 record, especially when half of that was played when he hadn't been committing to the game for months, is not a good example.

well bad in comparison to top top players, isnt exactly "terrible" right?

Iam sure he can compete with guys like Jinro, IdrA, HayprO and most of other U.S players.

A poll won't settle this because most people check this thread for results and don't read the posts. Plus there's also the high possibility for troll votes (much like the people who vote "No." in recommended games after insanely good games. Like 900 votes for yes, 20 for no.)

It is fairly accurate in most cases.

But about 100 people would be way more accurate.

Jinro, how can you be 0 and 6? Its so epically sad. From your play early in the season you looked pretty strong. I'm hoping the new team house atmosphere will suit you and so you'll come back strong soon.

What? qxc might not be a Marine King Prime, but he's pretty solid, he had a great run recently for Col in TAC3. I think he beats Jinro fairly easily. MC, Puzzle & Polt for the other 3.

No MorroW today makes me sad T_T

I think it's up to the rest of the division to decide if he makes it to the finals, I don't think he can beat MC next week so he's gonna be down to around 5-3 next week. Although I don't think it's possible for him to reach top 2 at this point unfortunately. Does actual division score affect the wildcard playoffs or whatever it is this season?

Yep, top 2 from the open bracket get something, and it isn't a direct seed. That alone shows something has changed.

really? I kind of dug the old format where top 2 got a playoff spot guaranteed and then the 4 below them battled for a seed. Worked out pretty well but if they feel like they have something better than I'm all for it. Should be some good games tonight!!

EVERY series except for the last one was a 2-1 loss. Even against MC. So while qxc technically is ahead in the standings, Jinro actually has a higher win % per game. That doesnt justify Jinro as deserving the place above qxc in the standings, but it should show that he isnt necessarily as bad as his score shows.

Aww Sheth vs MC first probably means that it's not an exciting 3-game series (or even not that exciting at all)? not sure whether NASL still moves the best series to last though

Okay now MC is way ahead in supply after crushing that attack

Stephano is the best ZvPer outside of Korea, and undoubtedly one of the best overall. He goes for the same build in ZvP and has great success. Tell me why don't players like Seth and Idra simply copy his build? It seems really strong.

I'm no good with SC metagame/theory, but maybe it's because their macro simply isn't as good? Foreigners besides Stephano do use his general strategy/build on occasion though, just not as much as he does.

Stephano wins because of crazy good game sense. If the only reason he won is because he had good builds, all zergs would do it.

He's talking about the Open Bracket. The top 2 from each group still goes to the finals. But the open bracket winners go to the wildcard round where they play against the middle finishers in group play. I like that format better. Don't let an open bracket winner win one weekend online qualifier to bypass everyone who played 9 weeks of group play.

Indeed, he has it all basically. His game sense is impeccable, his macro is superb and he actually micros his units, which zergs don't do nearly enough.

stephano does the same 'build' every game, which is basically an opening from which he reacts very well to the various protoss openings. Stephano is the best because he reads and reacts the best, the challenge of zvp is that if you don't react perfectly to any 2base play you die immediately, and if you overreact to anything you end up maxed on roaches without having a chance to tech to broods.

I'm no good with SC metagame/theory, but maybe it's because their macro simply isn't as good? Foreigners besides Stephano do use his general strategy/build on occasion though, just not as much as he does.

It's not hard to max out on Roaches at 12-13 minutes if you aren't pressured much. MC took a risk taking a third off 1 Stargate and 3 Gateways and Sheth just let him take it and hit that Colossus timing that he loves so much. Couple that with really late Broods and over-droning and you just have bad decision-making from Sheth.

I hear ya, but I still think his build is superior to most builds Zergs seem to use. I don't watch SC2 nearly enough to speak anything more than my own opinion, but this build seems really robust and seems to give the zerg control and the ability to dictate the game.

Ah I see :/ and well yeah obviously it was mostly Sheth's suboptimal play/lack of pressure that lost him that game ><

Wow, MC is playing sort of weird, lost a ton of stuff early game for almost no reason :< that random sentry attack was okay I guess? Lost soooo much gas but brought the drone count down quite a bit.

6 sentries + 1 zealot destroying an entire mineral line because sheth was 3hours supply blocked costed him the game.
If he had 12 lings and his drones he would have crushed that but with only drones... Not so much.

Well rather if he had not played risky and brought his zlings back rather than trying to force the nexus cancel. That were like 8-10 lings up there(or I'm reading anyway, if he had made fewer drones, if you meant, if he had those lings then nvm ).

yeah well he did go to korea and play in team league there. plus jinro is one of the most talented players in the scene. how can he not be good any more? it doesn't make any sense that he can go to the meccah or whatever it's spelled and somehow not be one of the best players

Well its not that easy to become one of the best players but i guess you go to Korea with the hopes to improve, some ppl stay for a few months some stay for year(s) and you SHOULD improve why else would you go there?. You will most likely attend less tournaments with going to Korea unless your team has insane amount of money and can send you everyone they want. It might also be that ppl lose their motivation when they dont get better while being in Korea and they start slacking / focuses on other things then playing. wall of text ends.

One thing I don't like about NASL wanting to do every game live is these no show.. you never know if you will be able to see the game you're waiting for. T_T

btw, any reason we have idra vs ret instead of Polt vs WhiteRa ?

They didn't tell you ahead of time the previous seasons (when they did know ahead of time), which is why I stopped watching them all together. At least they have a good reason for not doing so now.

Ye, NASL has done the best it could with scheduling failures on the part of the players, but this component of live matches is just unavoidable, I guess. MC is so boss as always, so fun to listen to his interviews ^^

NASL dont' force the players to play live, plenty of the games are from Replays, Idra vs Ret is a replay which is why it's easy to move it up the schedule rather than forcing the players scheduled to play live later in to show up early.

They already stated and I posted this thread that White Ra and Polt is postponed because White Ra couldn't log into the NA server for some reason.

Also it'd be just terrible imo to complain about them doing MUs live(and therefore taking a hit when things go south), when that was I'd probably say the 2nd biggest improvement this season from the others.

bitter's brother is apparently a wealthy oil trust fund child or something, but he met with an unexpected and tragic accident and became a paraplegic. bitter inherited the money after that or something (different parents were the initial difference). anyway for bitter's sake i hope that no stem cell cures emerge in the next years

also what happens to non-korean players in korea? i thought they were supposed to start dominating because of their exposure to the korean culture, but jinro is 0-6 and qxc is 1-5. what's the story there


qxc isnt in korea and he has been studying, jinro is idk just not good anymore.


yeah well he did go to korea and play in team league there. plus jinro is one of the most talented players in the scene. how can he not be good any more? it doesn't make any sense that he can go to the meccah or whatever it's spelled and somehow not be one of the best players


He (Jinro) unfortunately has a terrible mindset as a progamer.


Jinro is probably possessed of some laziness that prevents him being a truly strong player. The talent is there. It's just something holding him back. If Jinro adopted the Korean back-breaking work ethic evinced by some Starcraft pros (Jaedong being one), I'm sure we'd start to see the results you'd expect from a player of his potential

I think IdrA might have a shot to make it to the finals, right? Many people get to play for the last few spots. Only the bottom 2 or 3 don't from what I remember.

Maybe, but they are shaking up how one qualifies for the finals, so its not certain. If Ret gets second in his group though, Im almost certain that no matter what the new rules are he will get in

Ret has got to be feeling pretty confident after securing that win with fairly little effort. He hit the timing just right.

Except of course it's not, and they clearly said they had 2 segments in a row because they were missing a game due to Jinro being a no show.

I'm just bummed IdrA didn't play that out so we could have more SC2 to watch. He was way behind, but I'd have enjoyed watching a longer IdrA/Ret game. I know that's not his thing, but it's too bad.

Also, Jinro, you should see if you can hop in now before the night is over! I imagine if Qxc isn't busy he might be willing to play some games.

Although it's pretty rude to ask someone if they're willing to play after you've missed the time, you're forcing them to be the bad guy if they want to take the WO.

I guess. I don't think anyone would blame qxc though if he was busy or didn't want to play in this case. Idra and Ret had the same problem yesterday and agreed to play the games later so we could enjoy them.

I'm so confused, no Polt or QXC games or did I miss them already?
I saw the post Jinro made, but he is listed as the last match, so I thought it would still be okay.
Or was it scheduled to be earlier and the person in charge of making these lists just does them in a random order?

They haven't said anything despite people asking in every thread.

That sounds pretty weird/stupid.. so they will randomly decide who will advance?! -__-


They must have a plan already, why they aren't telling us the plan is beyond me.

Or, maybe they are just making it up as they go.

I'm so confused, no Polt or QXC games or did I miss them already?
I saw the post Jinro made, but he is listed as the last match, so I thought it would still be okay.
Or was it scheduled to be earlier and the person in charge of making these lists just does them in a random order?


White Ra had a problem logging in to NA servers so the game was postponed, Jinro slept in so qxc got a walk over win. They aren't too active updating the first post.

Woooo smashed on NASL TV!

That was such a weird map.

I was bugging them on chat about it, sounds like there are a few things left to finalize. but we should know the exact format very soon.

So frustrating.... I set my alarm 1 hour early, went to bed early, and then I slept right through it anyway..... Don't know what to say.

2-0 MC
2-0 Puzzle
Walkover for Qxc
Polt-WhiteRa got rescheduled/delayed I believe. They didn't show the match yesterday.

That's the problem actually. The final results are nearly there and still no rules/format on whose advancing means they will make up rules (accordingly to the final results) to make ppl with big fanbase advance, even he performed poorly the whole season. Just throwing out one of many possible scenarios.. it just doesnt feel fair to me.

Idea for the next NASL Season (if its still alive): Buy 50 alarmclocks and hand them in packs-of-two to all those players who overslept.
--> 1. Set alarm on the mobile phone, put it near bed
2. Set Alarm 5 min later on NASL Clock#1, corner of the room
3. Set Alarm 10 min later on NASL Clock#2, opposite corner

(i tried this setup on my first uni year, it works till like 2 promille of blood alcohol/ or >3h sleep)

If you're anything like me you learn to deal with any alarm-tactics in your sleep after a few goes.
I don't sleepwalk but you can be damn sure that when I put the alarm in the opposite end of the room, I learn to sleepwalk my ass over there to kill off the alarm and go back to sleep. Even through selfmade booby trapped obstacle courses. My sleepy alter ego is amazing at developing skills like that. True story.

I have to completely overhaul my alarm-tactics at least once a month to keep one step ahead of myself.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.
