.... wow that was beyond terrible. I really dislike player bashing but what the hell. I can understand he was losing some mutas here and there, but head on engaging the stalker army, why? He could have gone back to his main, clear the 4 stalkers and 2 colossi and still have 20+ mutas.

Also 5000 minerals, just do make 5 hatches, 5 queens inject 1 time and build a ton of lings, he would have won handily. I cannot say that this wasn't horrible.

Phamuts muta control and then his decision making totally cost him the game. I've not seen much Phamut at all but he seems to just do really funky things a lot of the time.

Why don't you go and play infront of a live audience for the first time ever.

Artosis with the deep insight: "If he had spent those 5000 minerals on something like spine crawlers or units, things would have been different."

I think it's just too much pressure. I can tell from personal experience, when I play an important match I just shake like freaking crazy and can't think straight for the life of me.

Yeah, I think that's it too. I mean the Zerg basically has only his Mutas to look after, yet his reactions on them always took 2 or 3 seconds.

Must have been shaking with adrenaline at that point.

That game was so awful I'm embarrassed to even be a starcraft fan right now holy shit. I wonder how red all the UK fans are right now.

Well, that was about as bad of a choke as you can get.... almost feel bad for the guy. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he normally plays better than that.

Not very.

You must be easily embarrassed.

Why would people be embarrassed that a non-pro UK player crumbled under the pressure of thousands watching?

Demuslim and Bling represent the UK decently abroad and they're not exactly crushing the competition here. The UK scene isn't great, but it's not terrible.

Bling lost to DeMuslim, no surprise, but then a guy who lost to both Phamut and Ourk? Lol.

Jesus christ what a choke, not seen any choke on that level ever.

I think the problem is he went into the game fully expecting to lose, probably so much that he never even seriously considered the possibility that he could win? Some definite impeding psychological crap going on there.

Pretty awful game all round.
