Wait a second, they just said there is NO extended series, why is everyone saying now that there is?

have to admit, the factory burning was odd. But chalk it up to such an odd beginning to the game for both players. Both were a bit tilted but Alicia less. Also surprising no tears and head bow by MKP. Much better now taking the loss with a smile. Too much of a wuss last time.

Ugh... two of his opponents have brain fart base races...

Seriously MKP? Base race vs DT is bad enough... but then you lift your only source of detection?

Is this a Bo3 or Bo5 or Bo 7?


I believe if DRG wins the first bo3, then he wins the tournament. If Alicia wins, then it gets extended to a bo7.

Yes--DRG has to lose 2 back-to-back BO3's to get knocked out; Alicia can only lose one.

Extended series applies if Alicia wins the first Bo3. If alicia wins the first series, it goes into a bo7 with the score of the first bo3 as a starting point.

DRG can finish it in a bo3, alicia has to win a bo7.

old rules. Read above the page. It's a bo5 and if Alicia wins that it's extended to a bo9.

Oh sorry, same principle tho, except for the bo5 instead of a bo3.

SICK FUCKING TACTICS :O


Tactics ? you mean make DTs and win ?


Hold terran all in, lose workers. Use tech available to deter Terran from expanding, and to gain map control in order to expand because Terran 1 base is better than toss 1 base.

Then snipe scvs building turrets and prevent an orbital with enough energy to scan from landing.

Yup, simply make DTs and win thats fine lets ignore the stalker blink to prevent a scan of the dts in his main when MKP had engaged his base trade.


Then happen to walk around his third as his opponent happens to walk down a ramp, both completely blind.

It could have been. Had MKP sniped both nexi and alicia under 400 mins, its a draw. On TDA at least.


Looked up rules--we're both wrong. It's a BO5 turning into an extended BO9.

depending on how many resources alicia had at the time of his 2 nexi going down it could have been a draw.


1300 minerals. He decided to stop making units when he realised that mkp couldnt see his dts at all.

y no scan?? WTF MKP


All OCs were dead


No, he landed his last OC and had time to scan, he just didn't.

so he scans and picks off those 3 DTs, alicia warps in 2 more and carries on, wouldn't have made a difference.


He was supply blocked, I think.

And if he was blocked, he wouldn't have been after the DTs were killed.

I don't think not hitting the last scan mattered too much. His army would have been able to stay alive longer, definitely, but Alicia was coming back with a sizable army, and the ability to make more DTs. Good play.


All gates unpowered, whole force right next to Dark Shrine, Scans available, and MKP had the better standing force as a Marauder ball vs Pure stalker. MKP just threw away a possible win with a huge blunder.


Possible draw not a win. Alicia army was bigger and MKP didn;t ahve stim

Keep in mind the we avoided extended series in the finals. DRG is up 2-0 against both MKP and SaSe, so this outcome is actually the best for having the greatest finals ever. Alicia is such a manly baller it's unbelieveable. ALICIA FINGHITNG!~!!!
