I wonder whether they can even have Polt vs viOLet Bo5 in 40 minutes. Seems impossible, so they either delay GSL WC or third place match.


Oh shit its an allkill format?

I thought the other one was the only one?

Omfg thats awesome


If the foreigners win there will also be a Ace match bo3 as a final event to see who becomes the champions.

So that makes it 3/10 from the previous Blizzard Cup, Mvp, DRG and Leenock

If Polt can make the finals it will be 4/10.


Hero was in blizzard cup too

We like to pretend he wasn't


his hype train got derailed pretty hard in that one. this was before he ever made code s for the first time.

He won DHW, foreign community says Hero is the best Protoss in the world > gets destroyed in blizzard cup

The write up had him come first and beat MVP his only dropped map could only be in the ~crazy coinflip~ that is PvP

Well that didn't work out at all.

He just wanted to play macro games, but those meanies didn't want to.
Lucifron vs Life should be quite interesting.

In my book he already is the best (just my personal subjective opinion). If his gameplay so far in Hots exhibitions shows anything too I think he's going to dominate more in HotS.

It would make me so happy to see him become the most accomplished player ever.

The actual final of IPL will end up starting like 2 hours later than scheduled.. 40 minutes till WC, where there is a potential of 12 more games, then LB finals, with a potential of 5 games.

haha i love leenock too but i don't think that's quite representative of his skill in hots ;p


Think of it this way then: who has the most builds in all match-ups: Leenock. Who has the most innovative and bizarre builds at the Code S level: Leenock. Who has the best general use of a variety of units for their respective race (imo Leenock or MVP). I know i'm REALLY biased but I just see him dominating more and more he's way too good.

Violet come to think of it is probably the most consistent player relative to peak level. He rarely underperforms, but also rarely overperforms either

Whoever it was talking about MVP at IEM influencing Lucifron's mech I'll definitely have to check it. I'd assumed MVP's most recent influential discovery was better figuring the transition to super late game with ravens etc. Time for some digging methinks

God hate being on mobile Internet so do much


At that IEM, Mvp really set the standard for hellion banshee openings and the transition into mech play.

Interesting clarifications guys. Cheers. MVP is actually the master of refining transitions, probably because he has to. He can't really coast on the strengths of his mechanics with dem wrists.

How do the games look thus far that are on ATM fellow LRers? Regardless of results, are these games looking even?


Btw, all the replays from IEM are publicly available if you would rather watch that instead of VODs. After the tournament ended every Terran copied his build and started using it.

also I think I was wrong earlier when I said no cloak banshees, it was actually with cloak.

http://drop.sc/packs/1309 all Mvp's games there.

Awesome, cheers. Writing a big article/blog so trying to find both resources to validate/challenge the central hypothesis. Don't mean to derail!

Explanation done, back on topic. today is shaping up about as well as I could have wanted. Peak Bomber aside, think Polt has a better overall shot to push on. Fed up with racially unrepresentative latter stages of tournaments, so hope this happens.

Having strong periods for races is fine, especially in terms of winning stuff. I don't really care what race wins a tournament although. In this case I'm rooting for the manliness of Polt to prevail. Tournaments stagnate when there's not a good mix, BWC was a PvZ fest, Gom TvT era, etc etc

If leenock wants to be the most accomplished player he needs to not choke away his best chance at a GSL again next time, he really should have won this season when you look at his foreign tournament placements in the last few months.

God damn it Sniper.

I guess they won't have many viewers for the rest of IPL5, finishing deep into Monday night.

It's ok IPL 4 finals didn't finish till after midnight local time. I think IPL 5 is still safe from going that far over, unless world goes the distance and the last 2 sets go the distance.

He's still young too, can't forget that... He can only get better imo.
