No americans and almost half the field going to end up being Protoss. Thats pretty lame. I hope the Terran meta game gets better soon...all these PvPs suck (not the match quality...just there is not enough variety deep in tournaments). Im sure TSL4 will still be fantastic still! | ||

Seems like a fine comparison, and yea I know this and I knew it before my other posts. I'm just following your twisted and arbitrary rules for determining a players exact skill right now. Huk didn't qualify therefore those who qualified are all better. Stephano didn't qualifiy either therefore Lalush, babyknight and jonnyrecco are now better than him. This is what you're advocating right? Say it for me please, say "by my logic, Lalush is better than Stephano." I'm going to quote it for my sig. Edit: Stephano actually has 42 points. Guess you don't do your research. Yes, I said he got 21 in both, I should said he got 21 in each, sorry for not being native English speaker and allowing this nitpicking. Nice try. You're putting words in my mouth which I never said. This is definitely not determining the exact skill of a player. My whole point was that Huk isn't showing the very top tier play in TSL4 Qualifiers that he is hyped for. It's the top post up there which started it all. I never said he plays bad or he's slumping now. I noticed other players, including for example Bly which was mentioned earlier, play better by getting more points and beating him in Bo3 too. Yet he still didn't qualify. There are simply a lot of really good players. It doesn't mean they're all on another level but it certainly means they are able to consistently play so well that they managed to qualify. That's after all the beauty of TSL4 qualification system, it rewards really solid and consistent high level play. More details on Stephano. His ZvZ matchup isn't stable. While his win ratio is still pretty solid, he often falls to who would be considered lower (but still pretty good) players. In both his runs he was eliminated in ZvZ. Does it mean his other matchups aren't that good? No. Does it mean he doesn't have all three matchup on really solid and consistent level? Yes. So let's conclude that Huk wasn't steamrolling everyone according to all the hyped posts and I think we all (yes, including me) expected him to do better. Other players succeeded with help of their excellent play and they can now prove they're indeed top foreign players. There is no point arguing further as this is going in circles and no new arguments appear besides silly suggestive questions. Good night. | ||

That's literally part of Avril 14th looped for however long that "track" is, with half-assed drums thrown beside it. Oh, and that remix that was played on-stream took the simple yet absolutely beautiful Avril 14th and made it boring. Kids these days. Congrats to majOr. Nice to see some North American representation, especially someone who's worked so long towards making the spotlight. i like the song, no need to shit on it -_- | ||

Tons of Swedes for me though Still a lot of variety that can be added in the last Korean qualifier. Man, that's going to be an insane qualifier! So many great names already. And in TSL itself, hopefully we can get most of the PvPs out of the way early ;DIf you enjoyed Axeltoss by the way, you should check out his stream! He has casted several of these qualifiers and he's done a very good job. I've really enjoyed his casting, calm and analytical but still fun and personal. His stream pops up here on TL when he casts and he deserves a lot more viewers! | ||

Very enjoyable For constructive criticism, I think you could be more conscious of the dynamics of your casting. There was a reddit thread about Day9's casting yesterday where many complained he shouted too much. You're at the other end where sometimes huge battles take place and you sound like you're worried you'll wake up someone in a room next to you. But maybe that's intentional and I'm fine with that style. Otherwise, certainly don't fake emotion but don't be afraid to be less reserved and restrained. | ||

Yes it was enjoyable, it was like 1/2 AM so .. was just laying in bed, and my screen is quite far away so I was more listening then actually watching. I want to point out 1 little bit off critisme, try to not always 'bash' on players when they aren't doing the most smartest thing ever. some times it's better to try and figure out why a player does something, rather then saying "this is abit dumb." I am not quoting anything here, it's just that i find it much more enjoyable + respectfull to a player to not point out every single 'mistake' and much more try to embrace the decision he made and try to let us know, why he wanted to do that. This is ofcourse a little bit hard because every player is diffrent, but just in general. You said yourself if u want to be a good caster u must be at a good level (wich you are as far as i remember correctly;p) so you might be able to fill in those, things.. I am sorry that I dont know how to put this well, english isn't my mother language. Aswell fun fact about the game between Illusion and Fraer on daybreak, Illusion lost 2 full medivacs off units wich the observer saw and both you and djwheat missed it ^^ found that like, well... funny, because in the end fraer pushed illusion and he didn't had enough units (aswell had 2 medivas trying to deny the 3rd base;p) ^^ Keep on going tho, you got my support! | ||
