I reckon there will be a huge crowd from tomorrow onwards. It's actually suprising that there are quite a few people watching. You have to remember that today is press only, which means these guys should actually be working and checking the booths while they are by themselves without thousands of people around.

That is my point right there ^
throw does NOT imply its intentional. its a really common word used in dota/hon/lol etc.
Yeah it can also be used to describe someone completely fucking up a won game and losing it, at least I thought so
Is that a Bop?
If I recall correctly a 'bop' is when you do a little poke, some light harassment or something, and win the game outright.
HerO vs Effort was the biggest bop ever.
Not really.Hero hit a 3 base timing and Effort got too greedy.That was not a bop Yoda vs Supernova where the bop is first coined if i am not mistaken. Yoda winning with just 2 hellions and few marines when he was just poking.
MKP/Yugiho was cool too. 6hellions/1banshee killing a Z
Jinro vs Mc on Steppes of War in i think open season 3 when Jinro basically died to a zealot/stalker poke. Beat that.

Targa may have thought the middle was basically mined out, and that they were both basically distance mining. That's the only way the turtle makes any sense.

2. the equation of making hydras=lose the game still stands. even though in this game the hydra making wasn't the key mistake.
Point 1 is pretty interesting to me. I mean, Targa didn't spread creep, didn't defend Grubby's harassment at all well, but was still in the position to win that game pretty comfortably.
Not saying OP, just I thought spreading creep and defending harassment was a pre-requisite for playing Zerg at a decent level no?
I agree. Grubby didnt even try to use warp prisms. He might have won that game easily if he did. Targa was moving his whole damn army to kill a single zealot over and over.
I'm seeing this more and more though. I saw it with JRecco vs Major the other night. I mean he pulled his entire army to deal with drops, and once the Zerg lategame was out Major couldn't even push with him out of position. At least Recco spread creep and stuff, giving him the speed boost to get back in place, but Targa didn't even do that

Hey, look at the top of the thread!
There's no crowd today because Gamescom isn't open to the public until thursday
MAYBE YOU READ MY POST. I NEVER CLAIMED THAT THERE IS A BIG AUDIENCE RIGHT NOW!

Ok I read your post again, you say " the audience at iem is always fucking boring " " maybe he can get the people the next days to show some emotions "
this doesn't imply there is no crowd currently, just that the people that are there tomorrow might be more lively
