I think iNcontroL can be perfectly happy with his overall performance in the qualifiers. He made it further than I thought he would.

Well, I play the opposite way that you play, but WOL ended up stale because Blizzard and map makers went to far in hurting all-ins and refused to accept that it should require skill to hold all-ins.

HOTS will end up in an even worse state with things like Photon Overcharge and Widow Mines unforunately.

This makes no sense to me....making all-ins easier to deal with prolongs games, expands windows for displays of non-game-ending skill, and removes a lot of opportunities for lesser skilled players to knock out better players with dice rolls.


Photon Overcharge doesn't take any skill, which is why it is bad. And it goes too far, denying almost all Terran 1 base all-ins.


You mean all those amazing builds that involve building a ton of marines and some other crap and charging cross map? I think we are better off without those, personally. Also, build bunker and slap units into bunker is not the paragon of skill either.


Well, I got to Masters in WOL being able to hold all types of Terran all-ins. It is difficult and it takes skill. And it is enjoyable to hold a Terran all-in as Protoss.

Photon Overcharge makes the game boring for me. I hated WOL PvT, 15 minutes of build up for 30 seconds of action decided by HT and Ghost micro.

The guy above is right, if you don't want viable 1 base plays, then just start the game with everyone on two bases and a basic infrastructure.

There are still one base timings that are out there and I am sure people will find them. Like everything else, it will take time. The overcharge means that people can't just walk across the map with a mob of marines and hope that the protoss doesn't have enough to hold them off, which I am ok with.


As I said, no good player was having issues with the mob of Marines. It took skill. Now it doesn't.

And no, Photon Overcharge counters all early 1 base Terran play that isn't worker harass. It is way too strong.


Well the game I am watching on stream is showing its not really a problem. Unless you are better than incontrol, which I am not sure.


Really? You can't read?

Yeah, I don't know what to say. I think it is fine and there is nothing wrong with it. The terran can still be aggressive and make the game hard for the protoss and I don't really care how exactly that is accomplished.


Well, I enjoy having fun, not just winning. Holding early Terran all-ins was fun and took skill. Now it doesn't and is boring.

And since no one does them anymore, there is now less variety in PvT, which is boring and bad.

They could have come with an ability that allows for more skill than Photon Overcharge.

An awful lot of abusive amateurs at the top of gm league these days, right? You guys are unbelievable.

He didn't beat anyone I wouldn't expect him to. So should be a standard performance for him.

These should be fun games. Mech TvP is always fun to watch as a meching Terran myself, but I can't root against NonY.
Who's the bigger scrub, the scrub, or the scrub who loses to him?

First Incontrol v T, now Nony v T. Let's see if the USA old-guard can survive against the up and comers.

You could potentially say "Oh yeah me and Nony lost to the same guy." Works out nicely for you.

Same. People saying "Drunkenboi won't even qualify"...lol, and you think Incontrol would? Not every personality in the SC2 scene is someone with actual competitive viability. InC is very valuable to EG, but not as a player. He had some fun trying to qualify, but you guys really think he expected to do much better?

I think it is a pretty well established fact at this point that iNcontroL is more of a community figure than a progamer at this point. I believe he have said this plenty of times himself.


he should probably give up his pro spot on EG and give it to some up and comer tbh, maybe be a rep for monster or whatever company wants him to hawk their products to kids

That's really unfortunate. MaSa is quite an impressive player, and did really well last NASL.

Looking at that window before this game, I said to myself... Hey, is that a park there in the middle? And then unbidden came the voice of JP McDaniels.

+ Show Spoiler +
His voice told me, "Bitches love parks."


Hey, it's Mario!

And NONY!
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?
