MVP is out then because he lost to the other two.
EDIT: Sorry I was wrong, since Golden did not win 2-0 it is undecided. Dunno what happens then.

I used to think buffing Fungal was a good way to make the Zerg midgame more solid back in 2011. In retrospect, I should've predicted it would result in retarded crap like this.

they are saying it happens far less often, which makes it more meaningful

Jaedong's overall winrate in BW is 68.5%, MVPs in SC2 is 64.66%.


If Jaedong played in the BW equivalent of HSC, his winrate would be 100%


I'm intrigued as to how you would translate HSC into a BW equivalent.


Did foreigner ever take a game off korean in WSG ? I actually don't know if it happened but I guess it didn't


There would be no BW equivalent. The scenes are too different to make a meaningful comparison to a hypothetical BW HSC.


I'd say WCG is pretty close, actually.

I agree, a game where someone can dominate and then lose to random players loses interest fast, and is usually just a bad game. Theres a reason why there's no such thing as rock paper scissors tournaments.


Game is a joke if the best player in the history of the game can lose to someone like monchi, sorry...


so the game is a joke if the best player plays bad and can lose games? seems legit.

Did Jaedong drop games to random foreigners like Feast, Monchi or Titan? No.

He lost a game to Incontrol.


as far as I know that was way before he ever started his reign as tyrant

Still, he never should have lost anything to a random foreigner, ever. Period. End of Story. There is nothing else. If a great, championship winning player loses to another, lessor player because he was having a bad day or played poorly, it is clearly the games fault. Why can't people see that?!?

Because the foreigner scene in BW was anywhere near the foreigner scene in SC2?

If its a three way tie who makes it out? MVP won against Golden, Golden won against monchi, and monchi won against MVP...? And they would all have the same map scores... Do they just play again?

Pretty sure that if Mvp wins 2-0, he and Golden make it out. If he wins 2-1, it's a tie. If he loses, it's Golden and Monchi.


Ya I understand that, what I'm trying to say is that if MVP wins 2-1, what will happen to
decide who make it out?

No. Storms don't root you in place. Fungal roots so you can cast chain fungals till the vikings/... are dead. You can dodge storms...

Getting them low and making them run would have the same effect. If they closed the distance to HSM the a second storm would have finished it.

Every single air unit was literally in around 3x3 area.

My mind is fucking blown by that rock paper scissor championship

I know man. And there were people who consistently placed high as well. How does someone be consistent at rock-paper-scissors.


I read an article on how to be decent at it and beat my wife like 6-0. apparently Humans suck at being random so scissors is least played and rock is statistically most played (by males) so it's safe to go paper usually when in doubt. Also playing the item that your opponent would have beaten you with his previous move tends to win. If an opponent goes for the same choice 2x in a row the chance of him giving it a 3rd try is extremely low as he is "trying to be random" as opposed to actually being random.

Sounds awesome :p do you have a link to said article?

MentalGNT rock-paper-scissors bonjwa 2013


Here's the article that I read...
http://www.worldrps.com/how-to-beat-anyone-at-rock-paper-scissors



Same one I linked to as well =P I am guessing you also found it through dignitas' article.


Actually no, I just stumbled onto it one day. I have to admit, using RPS to determine things feels a lot like cheating these days...
You know what unit really has balance problems? Colossi. Why, they look like they could be blown over in a stiff wind!
