scarlett is better than youd think


Scarlett is currently the best player in North America. So I guess she stands better chances then almost anyone else qualified for this tournament.

I probably won't watch too much of this tournament, so few Terrans and none of them really stands a chance against the best Korean players.
I guess I'll only watch if some player has a sudden breakout performance, that could make things a little bit more interesting for me.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

scarlett is better than youd think


Maybe, but there are a lot of Koreans who are much better than her.


Name 10.

I would think it would be less than that if you were already down 0-1? cause you have to win 2 in a row, and then 2 out of 3


Well I know I am right so you dont have to worry anymore. It's a simple probability calculation

if you're down 0-1, the chance of winning that series and then another is 12.5% not 25%

Poor Startale. That makes 7 silvers in 2012 now, 8 when MVP beats Life.

is this a joke? lol

Well there aren't 10 Koreans qualified for World Finals, so I assume he meant in general. Which would clearly be a joke.

MVP would never stomp rain, the series they played was so close it might have gone to rain

It is still a coinflip match-up.
It really depends on who get the better build order.

Just that Sun is so good at flipping coins.

What am i reading?


I wasn't meaning the top Koreans but the pretty awful other players there (not Sen)

You're wrong actually ._.

omg if this doesn't get figured out, I'm gonna have to write a program to run a simulation a million times and count the results....

Well his calculation is assuming he has 100% chance of winning the second Bo3, that obviously isn't the case. I'd say the chance for that is 50% so total chance would be 12.5%. Kind of cheating by not going through individual games but.

So MVP beating Sun 3-2 in a close series is considered stomping?

Well three lessons learned at these finals:

1st: Rain has cemented his claim to be one of the very best players in the world with his win here.
2nd: Koreans only go out to other koreans. They defended their pride with a HUGE domination beside some very close games.
3rd: Star Tale is all about 2nd places. Marineking should join them! xD
