I'M PRETTY SURE

if you won the game

you outplayed your opponent

pretty sure

I mean I could be wrong

Yeah better bet on that last one. With outplaying your opponent not the same as winning is meant. So yeah...


But if you won the game you played better than your opponent did, isn't that what outplaying is?

By outplaying generally it is meant that one player (generally the winner) showed clearly across the board better play.

For example if you have a very close TvP, and the toss manages to sneak in two HTs with a flank and storms the entire Terran army, then that was clearly a good move by the protoss, but he didn't outplay the terran. Build order wins are also not outplaying. Outplaying is more like whatever you do, your opponent is doing it better.


this is just semantics, because it's a video game and there are things that are strong and can quickly turn a game around you will have these moments where one player messes up and the other takes advantage like with the storm example. Even if It's just for a moment it is playing better than your opponent because if your opponent was playing better they wouldn't have let it happen.

outplaying in your definition can't exist in this game unless two players of the same race do mirror builds

ZvT example:
You try to drop, he intercepts pretty much every drop. You attack, he flanks you. You try to deny one of his bases, you fail. Then you are being outplayed (assuming the zerg doesn't screw up his macro behind that). Really this isn't rocket science. And it is not my definition, it is the general definition used by everyone who doesn't randomly use the word...


no It's just your subjective bias as to what constitutes as " outplaying "


Objectively, you would agree that Stardust tied for worst player in the group in a bo3?


objectively I would say stardust was the player with the 2nd best win/loss record in the group so he advanced in second place.

stardust 4-3

I'm not taking your question at face value because it makes absolutely no sense. Happy was the worst player " in a bo3 " in this group because he went 0-2 in bo3's while the other players didn't go 0-2.

I'M PRETTY SURE

if you won the game

you outplayed your opponent

pretty sure

I mean I could be wrong

Yeah better bet on that last one. With outplaying your opponent not the same as winning is meant. So yeah...


But if you won the game you played better than your opponent did, isn't that what outplaying is?

By outplaying generally it is meant that one player (generally the winner) showed clearly across the board better play.

For example if you have a very close TvP, and the toss manages to sneak in two HTs with a flank and storms the entire Terran army, then that was clearly a good move by the protoss, but he didn't outplay the terran. Build order wins are also not outplaying. Outplaying is more like whatever you do, your opponent is doing it better.


this is just semantics, because it's a video game and there are things that are strong and can quickly turn a game around you will have these moments where one player messes up and the other takes advantage like with the storm example. Even if It's just for a moment it is playing better than your opponent because if your opponent was playing better they wouldn't have let it happen.

outplaying in your definition can't exist in this game unless two players of the same race do mirror builds

ZvT example:
You try to drop, he intercepts pretty much every drop. You attack, he flanks you. You try to deny one of his bases, you fail. Then you are being outplayed (assuming the zerg doesn't screw up his macro behind that). Really this isn't rocket science. And it is not my definition, it is the general definition used by everyone who doesn't randomly use the word...


no It's just your subjective bias as to what constitutes as " outplaying "


Objectively, you would agree that Stardust tied for worst player in the group in a bo3?


objectively I would say stardust was the player with the 2nd best win/loss record in the group so he advanced in second place.

targa 4-1
stardust 4-3
welmu 3-4
happy 1-4


and if welmu had won one game it would have been...

Stardust 4-4
welmu 4-4


then I would say stardust went 2-1 in bo3 series' while welmu went 1-2 in bo3 series'.

he tied with welmu in bo3 series', while he won his other bo3 series and welmu lost his other bo3 series.


But that's not what I asked.

Can you clarify your question?


Given that outplaying is here being defined objectively as synonymous with winning the game, I am asking if he would agree that in best of three game series, Stardust tied with the worst player in the group since they both went 1-1-1.

Stardust and Happy ended game 3 of their series in a draw. They had to play a fourth game to determine who would move to the final series.
