How in the world did Roof qualify?


After game 1 I guess you spoke too soon? -_-... He did quiet well.

not really. he took massive damage from 2 banshees, couldnt handle drops, got 1 half-decent engagement in the midgame, and then a-moved infestor/BL to victory.

nothing particularly impressive about that. if anything, just showing that he can win without any multitasking.

He came back from a terrible position by engaging really well every time. Quite impressive imo.

1 good engagement. Not every time. 1 good engagement. Every other engagement was either a walkover or he lost.


No, he actually engaged quite well over and over again. Was very cost-efficient with the muta/ling/bling vs marine/tank wars, which allowed him to get to BLs safely and stay ahead of Rain -_-

I thought balance whining wasn't allowed in LR threads anyway.

On another note I really like the analysis after the game, although I am not too too interested, but I think it will help some people. From a TV perspective the guy on the left from Complexity needs to talk to the audience and not to Mr. Bitter, it gets annoying.

Saying I don't think a player is good isn't balance whine, lol. Wtf?


Talking about how he shitted up the game then a-moved blord/infestor to victory is.



Good thing I only said the second half of that sentence. Also no, that's not balance whine anyway. It's saying I'm surprised that such a bad mechanics player was able to win.


Bolded the important parts for you.

I really don't understand, Terran wins a game and people still complain about TvZ balance? Why do I even spend time in these threads -_-

I didn't say anything about balance. I said that there wasn't anything impressive about what he did. He caught Rain with his pants down in one instance. There was no massive outplay from Roof in this series. I actually haven't said anything about TvZ other than that I don't like the way it's evolved now. At no point did I say it's imbalanced.

He's a foreigner who prepared interesting builds for the tournament he isn't as good mechanicly but has a verry interessting and unique style.

Yeah, he totally 2-raxed those first two games. Totally. It was a calculated strategy he delivered in this strategic game.

To be fair, these MLG arena threads are worse then the usual LR threads are. Dunno why though :<



MLG appeals to the casual audiences, while NASL and GOMTV are more of a HC SC2 fans tounry.

Some players have very map-dependent builds that sacrifice SCV scouting for timings. MKP has quite a few of these.

Call it whatever you want, he does 2 rax 80% of his games.

I'm not trolling, it genuienly displeases me that Rain if playing a game on stream, I can count on it not being entertaining. I understand people cheese, it's part of it. But this guy.. my goodness.

The metagame is surprisingly moving towards less and less scouting... previously everyone scouted in TvTs and PvPs, now a lot of players skip it in order to get the extra 40 or 50 minerals or whatever it is.

Scouting is a way to definitely stay safe, against someone like Rain they should really be scouting, but if you're playing MKP in a ZvT probably no need since it's almost 100% guaranteed 1rax cc or cc first (exploitative play)
