You get overly defensive a lot. There was no malice in his question. | ||

Nobody really, we just fear that it will lack massages and thus won't live up to expectations. You can't recapture that glory. Still great though, I might tune in despite the late hour. One question, do you have a fixed winning goal (like holding a Xel'Naga tower at 60 minutes or so) or are you doing it on the fly? I feel FFAs have a lot of competitive potential. | ||

I feel FFAs have a lot of competitive potential. Man no tournament will ever match the hype of the GSL so we should just limit tournaments to the GSL only. I think it's the only logical conclusion, just like FFA w/o Hyun massage is no good right? | ||

I feel FFAs have a lot of competitive potential. Well in my opinion they're only fun because you have at most 1-2 people tryharding and the rest doing fun silly builds. | ||

![[image loading]](http://misc.team-aaa.com/perso_Marien/photos/naniwa.jpg) + Show Spoiler + Jk :D Nani is my fave player ever <3. He was actually 100% calm and joking about it, albeit slightly spiteful. | ||

He was disappointed because he has been trying to play HotS but it crashes constantly for him. Thought he was actually going to get a chance to try out the new units. He was a bit pissed but he definitely wasn't serious about everything he was saying. | ||

"Your Battle.net account does not have any games that can be upgraded with this game key. Either you have no games that can be upgraded with this key, or you have already upgraded them." Then I checked my games library and there's Heart of the Swarm beta. WTF where I got that from and when??? Im soooo happy and shocked, lol. HotS weekend incoming.  | ||
