I wish mlg would hire a pair of vintage korean casters to fire shit up over there because it was boring to no end to listen to this week end.

The axeltoss kid sure looks nice, but i'm not really sure he's fit for casting starcraft. I've never seen him before, maybe he had a bad week end tho.

Not 'a bad weekend'... But it felt they weren't pushing the volume of their voices too hard cause of the echo.

Jesus Fucking Christ, I know this is just a rebroadcast, but do they have to spam the shit out of me with adds? I turned addblock off for TL to support streamers, but this is tempting me to turn it back on. Not only are the adds horrible (Mom life wtf?) but I just got 3 in a row during an important engagement that I would have really liked to see.

Edit: Thankful for Day9's recap, got to see the seekers missiles that cleaned up the Infestors.

Haha yeah the Korean commentators are a lot more fun. Often times I prefer it to English commentary even though I don't understand what they're saying.

Such an unfair comparison. Best korean casters vs random no name shoutcasters. At least use Deman/Kobe clips if you're going to berate English LoL casters.

Interesting how Mvp, Polt and Taeja all won tournaments recently. It's a return of the old guard Terrans minus MMA.


Time for Jinro to come back and make another GSL run.

Fruitdealer is still the 15th most earned money worldwide. Very few who has passed him. I think you underrestimate how much money his first win gave him.

relatively speaking, for someone who has been playing and attending as many tournaments as naniwa to just have passed fruitdealer who hasn't played in years, isn't that impressive

Well it's not exclusive to Naniwa. You could say the same to all sc2 players except for a few who managed to beat Fruitdealer quite fast.

Some tournaments gives a lot more than others.

He's one of fifteen who has managed to break the 100k dollar milestone, that is an accomplishment. He did it before players like Bomber, Squirtle, Taeja, Violet. Are you saying they aren't impressive as well?

Only 2 foreigners have won more than 100K, Stephano and Naniwa. Most of Fruitdealer's money came from the first season of GSL which gave an absurd amount of money (87.5K), while Naniwa has been consistently winning money. But you're right though, Naniwa is definitely pathetic.</sarcasm>

So BM, using that HotS units... he should have made a factory and then kill it to simulate upgrading siege mode instead.

huh thought the final was bo7?

no it was announced as bo5 when mlg released their rules for this tournament but everyone was too busy looking at the extended series rule


It really should have been Bo7 though. Hyun didn't lose a series all weekend until the finals. Its supposed to be double elim. At least make it Bo7 rather than shortchange Hyun.


Agreed.

Hyun was the only loser who was not double eliminated.


This tournament isn't a good indicator of the flaw in this format, because both finalists were undefeated going into it. I have no problem with two undefeated finalists playing a single elim finals, because both players have performed equally.

The problem is when one finalist is undefeated and the other finalist has dropped a series. Having had to play one series less is not an adequate advantage in such a scenario. But I guess that's just the tournament format, and it's not a huge deal, compared to the pain of producing and marketing a double bo3 final.

What I think would be cool for this format is a bo7 grand finals where undefeated finalists start with a single win. So if HerO had gone to finals, it would start 1-0 for polt, giving him a small, but real advantage for not dropping a single series. The finals we saw would have started 1-1 (or 0-0 if you want to just null the advantage for those cases)
