I wonder if she just missed it, or just plain ignored it confident in her abilities to defend yeah, wouldn't mind hearing her thoughts.. it was a pretty good defend afterall. | ||

But it is like this: Imagine a football game where one side (I'll call them Bombers) has the lead, but the last time the teams played it looks similar, and the other side (Scarletts) made an awesome comeback and won. So the Bombers have the lead, but Scarletts have a great quarterback capable of making a comeback, we know that because it happened last game. Tense game, very exciting. Then the Scarletts quarterback trips over a linemen and breaks his ankle. Bombers go on to an easy victory, game over. That is what happened, and it is anti-climatic. I'm not sure you know it, but each widow mine of terran is actually a part of the terran army, not some random occurance. Infact WMs are probably the most vital unit in that army composition, since terran can't really deal with mutas and these insane number of banelings anymore. I won't disagree that I'd rather want rine tank back, but that's besides the point, without the WMs terran pretty much sucks in TvZ. Edit: And ontop of that, those WMs didn't really matter, the game was over already unless bomber failed pretty hardcore, which while possible is unlikely(to the extend required to actually loose the game). | ||

Plenty of people have tripped and cost their team the game. It is a pretty anti-climatic ending compared to what could have been, because it is a simple stupid mistake. Flying your Mutalisks into Widows Mines is the same thing. And you illustrate the problem well. Widow Mines are not only the most vital damage dealer for Terran, but a very important one for Zerg too. They eat Marines alive, and that is what sparked Scarletts comeback in Game 4. | ||

That is what happened, and it was anti-climatic. It was a great series though, Scarlett made one mistake, which cost her the game because units exist that can punish someone like that. Did you miss the part where Bomber had 3/3 and a fully saturated fourth orbital when Scarlett had barely anything at her fourth? "trips over a linemen and breaks his ankle". It was over within a minute or two anyways. She got outplayed, stop crying and deal with it. | ||

I don't think shaking hands with the winner afterwards adds or subtract to that. It's just good sportsmanship and shows appreciation for their skills on both sides. | ||

No I didn't miss that part, which is why I said the Bombers have the lead. And maybe she wouldn't have made the comeback. Maybe not. How many people said GG in this thread after Bomber roasted all the Drones in Game 4? And that's the point. It could have been more epic and showcased skill. But instead the game ended in a silly way. We've seen amazing comebacks in football and SC2. And we've seen anti-climatic endings. This was the latter. And I had no horse in this race man. I like Bomber and hope he wins it all. | ||

Oh well, time for next season. having two foreigners advande to round of eight in a tournament as stacked as this? I dunno Im fine with the top being korean as long as the other regions can take games from them (and they can, Scarlett was close to a semifinal and Naniwa took down Innovation and Duckdeok (wich he lost to earlier but anyway)) | ||
