Can someone explain me why Taeja lost so easily? he's been so scared of 6-7 gates that long that he easily lost?

okay, just came home from weekend.

Taeja wins yay

day9 explains MLG system, i dont get it lol, dont even get the liquidpedia page, wth is wrong with good old group stages into KO system?


The problem was that the winners and losers brackets converged on the finals which meant that the finals were almost always bad because the guy from the winners bracket has to have an advantage.


He already had the advantage of playing less rounds so he really didn't need anything else. Not sure why this is so hard to understand for some people. Anyway, this is somewhat overdiscussed lol. But thx for clarification! MLG just to stubborn to get a good system. lol no wonder they get along so well with kespa.


lol

Just flood the mlg commissioner's twitter if you really want.

As for me, it's their problem not mine so I'll be doing nada.

sc2 really needs a new impulse, all matchups are so boring/terrible to watch nowadays.


or maybe just more foreigners in top 16?

oh ok (no idea)

Basically they're screwing around.

So it's not a real final? or are they that unserious in LOL?

This tournament means virtually nothing, TSM and CLG (The two main NA teams) didn't even go. The teams here are only interested in points for the season 2 finals and since dignitas and curse are already in for it they don't care about the finals.


Isn't there money at stake though?



They agreed to split the money since they do not want to show strats for season 2 tournament next week.


Is this confirmed? This is ultra disrespectful, seriously.


sounds almost illegal too..

Sounds very shady, are the organizers really okay with this?

Isnt that what got the super smash bros people in trouble?

Ye two best players got booted. For a starcraft comparison imagine if jaedong and flash split money and were permabanned from the starleagues and that's what happened.

Seems so, they're talking about it in the LoL thread, too. Incredible disrespectful and unprofessional, along with splitting prize is supposed to be illegal isn't it? They shouldn't get a dime when they refuse to finish the tournament.


Yeah hopefully, sounds like that badminton scandal in olympics. I hope they don't get a dime and fail utterly in the upcoming big tournament.


The LOL fans on reddit seem to be mostly okay with it.

HerO finally found an answer to TaeJa's super greedy play?

Yeah Hero played that beautifully, he scouted the CC first very early on, went super greedy double expand on 1 gate and used a tower + a stalker to completely shut down any scouts and then cleanly outmacroed him. Very nice game.

Well that depends on their viewership. I wouldn't hold my breath for LoL viewers who prefer a "close skilled game" than a "trollfest". I mean, that's why they are playing LoL and not Dota 2 in the very first place.

I don't think there is a legitimate 3 fast cc build for TvP at the moment. Taeja should play standard.
