Acer.Nerchio 2-0 CreatorPrime

PvZ is Creator's weakest match-up, contrasting Nerchio's best. Now, best match-up vs worst match-up doesn't mean anything if there's a significant difference of skill between the players, but there isn't. MC and YongHwa, two players with what I view as a little bit better PvZ that Creator, really got schooled by Nerchio.

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/players/1771_Nerchio/games#tblt-7665-1-default-0-creator

heh :D

Doesn't say too much though, remember how this looked before certain LAN tournaments happened.

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/details.php?section=sc2-international&type=players&id=1771&part=games&league=standard&vs=P#tblt-7596-1-default-0-mc

MC had a rather noticable drop in results, while creator has only improved since a few months ago

nerchio can upset creator, and i agree pvz is creator's worst... but creator's worst is a fair amount better than almost anyone else's. creator has top3 PvT and PvP, having a top5 PvZ is no shame haha. i'd still favour creator.

he did reach the finals, couldn't have been that bad haha

Hrmpf, so I rewatched the Vods just for you, he died to a maxed out blink stalker immortal push, to a blink stalker allin and then completely fell apart in the lategame in the last game, Creator complained about lag and Nerchio whined about stalkers or immortals at the end of every game, Creator played somewhat decent games but I've seen Nerchio play way better. Hopefully it'll look a bit closer on LAN, these games were quite onesided and not fun to watch.

Hey Opterown, I think you should add Adebisi's twitter as well since he is observing the games (on the main stream I guess)

https://twitter.com/AdebisiSC

Just because you added all the casters twitter as well ^.^
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.

Would love to see IdrA gets out of his group, anything can happen if he does! Very much looking forward to Hero vs IdrA though, last time they played it was a fun series.

lol! You should follow the GSL!

It may be his weakest matchup, but it still takes the very very best zergs in the world to beat him here. And no, Nerchio and Scarlett are not among them

So, the 1st seed from Europe meets the 3rd seed from Korea in a first group match. How the hell does that make any sense?

Seems illogical after three months of qualifications, but maybe Blizzard is afraid of playing favorites.

I hope there will be fast VODs or a rebroadcast for this, because the times are pretty terrible for EU viewers. Starting at 03:00 (CET) and ending at 13:00 on both days. Without completely wrecking your sleep schedule you can only catch the second half of each day.

It's one of the worst systems for group drawings I've seen, they basically only care about not having too many players from a region in a group, removing any advantage for players who did well at the regionals is ridiculous.

Fitting sentence I heard on some show this week: There's good seeding and there's bad seeding but the worst thing is no seeding at all.

Watching esport is watching an endless array of terrible tournament-formats.

I do follow GSL. It's the only tournament I make it a specific point to follow.

Creator recently beat Curious in GSL, which is cool. I legit think Nerchio has some of the best ZvP in the world. It's probably about equal with Stephano's at this point.
