IronManSC, stop posting. 3 times now? once was enough.


When a pro forfeits a game, people scream for a ban, suspension, etc

When bling is wasted and is disgracing the face of one of the biggest, professional tournaments, people find that ok?

sigh...

Professional? Disgracing? What are you smoking?
Homestory Cup and the word "professional" cannot be used in the same sentence together. It's just impossible.


Yeah like idiots on stream spamming "stop having koreans casters they cant speak english and they are drunk!" Well if that's how you feel just watch your IPLs or MLGs but I will stick to my homstory cup :D


Are people actually shitting bricks over this? HSC is not a 'professional' tournament by any stretch of the imagination. It's a bunch of dudes sitting around enjoy some brewskies and playing videogames. It just happens to be streamed over the internet.

The people who run the tournament are professionals. They just want a relaxed environment and Take has been doing this for years already, so even if it not might look professional, the people behind the scenes know their stuff VERY well.

Only because there´s a clear focus on the players and their interactions it doesn´t mean that HSC isn´t professional. It´s just a completely different kind of tournament.

You don´t have to wear a suit to be a professional.

MVP lost to Ret in MLG before patch. Why would Ret not be able to beat again MVP after a few months, considering Ret is doing really well and MVP is not?

Stop complaining about balance, jesus.

Winning GSL a month ago = not doing well?


Well, you could argue in terms of skill he wasn't the best player in that GSL + he dropped out of current GSL + his play has been really shaky this tournament.

Why is Bling so hawt?
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

Ret beating the current GSL champion, and no one is too shocked..

yea, beating 4time as well as current gsl champions 2-0 is so standard

ret is ret, he can beat anyone when he plays well, doesn't mean hes going to continue winning.

Two things would actually make this tournament absolutely 100% perfect. 1) Have Huk, Stephano and Apollo there and 2) Have one stream dedicated to filming all over the apartment, like everywhere, even with no sound.

It's not too shocking, Mvp loses TvZ to worse overall players all the time. He goes for really weird/risky builds sometimes.

I don't like MVP particularly but I feel pretty bad for him right now. It's a very fun/laidback tournament but he doesn't know anyone but maybe the Koreans and doesn't really seem to fit in. He seems somewhat introspective. And now losing like this. t.t

Kinda like Kawaiirice last HSC

I somewhat agree, MVP has not played well all tournament. Kinda sad that this further encourages balance whine.
I think this is just not MVPs tournament and environment.


LOL what a joke, the guy has played in front of thousands of people under pressure, you think he can't handle playing around a bunch of random nerds?

Why does MVP look so scrubby this tourney?


Koreans generally do not do too well outside korea. MC obvious exception

DRG and MKP all would like a word as Alicia walks awkwardly in the background.


Lol forgot about those. Was just thinking about last time when MWP and Nestea was over for that blizzard thing and didnt look so hot. Maybe its an IM thing

There are other factors besides nerves in a tournament.

MVP needs Ret to 2-0 Golden and to beat Naama, or for Golden to win 2-1 vs Ret and to beat Naama 2-0.


If ret wins and mvp win no matter score mvp advances. Mvp would be 2-1 and gold 1-2

If MVP doesn't do well this tourny, I don't think he come to many more foreign tournaments... He seems to much prefer the rest and preparation time in GSL format.

Risky play is the best chance to win TvZ right now o.O

You could say the same about DRG in Season 2. The game is just really random.
