Seriously, life winning would be so fucking sick. A repeat of fruitdealer without him sucking afterwards would be amazing.

Not true, but I understand your happiness of bogus winning.

Yeah, wheter Bogus is on another level or not (he was already better than MC at the end of WoL) you will not take my taking joy in him dismantling MC

2-1 is now a dismantling? Bogus looked pretty weak in game 2...

This type of statement is always so dumb


So basically, to win MC has to trick Bogus with new and innovative builds. Stuff like that only works for so long before everyone catches on, see MC at the end of WoL.

You mean placing high in most tournaments? Even when everyone said he would basically dissapear? He almost beat the GSL champ Roro, was actually the one closest to doing it

People always forget MC has a good late game protoss play.

Indeed, protoss just is a bit of a gimmicky race sadly, or well in WoL they were, so they had to catch their t/z counterparts somewhat offguard. MC has always been a really good toss, infact the pillar of WoL toss.

does mlg finals usually have this many viewers or is this flash effect

Hots effect.


Last MLG also reached 100k views during Flash vs Life.


really? I don't think it was even close to that.


It was for Flash/Naniwa not vs Life tho.


I don't think that was even close to 100k either, although I can't remember if the viewer count was showing for the last mlg, probably not..


Pretty sure it was but over two streams and only just hit it (so realistically it didn't)

Why do they have these long ass breaks between all games?

I wouldn't call it a robbery considering they earned their spots (well sort of). Not much different than what the foreigners went through. This is sort of a norm. Other guys have to step it up.


If we have non-region locked qualifiers, not a single foreigner will qualify.

You know the games MC won against Roro required a lot of luck. That timing he hit in game 4 was not pre-planned, if anything it was delayed. He was behind all game and hit a 5 second timing window before Roro had broods complete. Every game MC lost, he was completely dismantled- just look at game 5. MC's play is very timing based, because mechanically he's not as strong as a lot of the other player. Timings only work for so long before everyone figures them out. See all the MC vs Nerchio, Stephano, or DRG games. They had him figured out and in turn dismantled him at numerous tournaments. There's a reason why he started to fall off as WoL matured.

Why the fuck is the third place match a bo3? every other match was a bo5? It is a very odd decision for it to be a bo3 if not bo5. MC could have made some magic.

nobody cares about 3rd place matches, everyone is waiting for the finals

MC fans do

I think MC would be fine if they give him the 1,5k extra and cut the match

If the tournament structure was like that beforehand, sure. If it's scheduled to be played, I'm sure MC would prefer the longer matchup. It also suits him better.

without the 3/4 match, the second semifinal winner wouldn't get a break to the next match. if the semi-final was grueling, the previous guy gets a break but not the second finalist. unless you want downtime

Did foreigners win a series? Which one?


None. He is taking about place 1 to 10. Korea 1-9, foreigner 10


Places 1 through 8. You can't differentiate places 9-through-16.

Because europe wants to sleep

I get that but the 3/th and 4th place is kind of a big deal compared to all the numerous other Bo5's that have occured.



This exactly. It makes absolutely no sense from a competitive standpoint to have a best of three determine a 3k difference in prize money, when a best of 5 determined a 1k difference in the round of 32.

From a competitive standpoint there should be no "final" for third or fourth. They should just give them an equal amount of cash and not force them to play an uninspired series for money, because that is what it is; there is no glory to play for only hours or minutes after losing in the semi-finals.

Also it slows down the momentum we as spectators carry from highly competitive semis into the grand finale.

yeah... watching MC fall was sad....
