its not a mechanical game in the way BW is so no i dont think it can be chalked down to that. shaky decision-making and hesitation in critical moments has been a recurrent theme


drg losing because of mechanics frankly doesn't seem likely.


you do realize the top kespa players most likely have better mechanics or equal to DRG right? It is practically a requirement to stay near the top in BW

I think one reason why sometimes it seems like the other player is playing bad is because the winning player forces situations that are tricky. If the other player lets you play your game, then of course you will look good, but if the other player does not let you, then chances are that your play will look worse.


Yeah, it seemed that whenever anyone played Savior they just made lots and lots (and lots) of stupid mistakes. And then you look at the game more in depth, and you realised he caused the player to make those mistakes. Although Effort has a lot less finesse, he still learned a lot of tactics and playstyles from Savior.

Aren't MVP, Nestea and MC actually a part of the Elephant? Especially MVP who was a young and promising BW terran. They just came earlier.

I think so too. I thought DRG played well, maybe not as best he could, but still playing against multitasking like Effort, DRG was plainly pushed to the limit.

I completely agree, but I disagree that drg lost simply to being mechanically outclassed.

They were doing well about a month ago. Roughly around the time of Symbol's surprise loss to Seed, things have been going almost uniformly downhill.

Until effort starts dropping drg like mma does, then I respectfully disagree.

Because zerg drops are obviously as good and often used as terran ones right?

Unless you meant dropping as in just beating.

I think it's quite hard to argue against that Effort really did outclass DRG in game three. Game one and two might have other factors as well, but game three was almost pure mechanics. And it's not like DRG didn't put up a good fight, he did, but Effort was simply better.
