I can't wait to see Major Incontrol and Illusion play! I don't really care about Scarlet IMO she is a a step above these players.

Scarlett so pretty on that pic :3 (and on Liquidpedia)
|
Illusion has surprised me so far.
|
The games have been pretty good. But I really don't like Destiny, and really wish he would disappear from the community....I know this isn't the place to rant about it. But for MLG if they see this just know if you want to improve casting get rid of him. Bring back Slav and Toss <3.

I like Destiny and Catz because they are entertaining but not the most professional, anyways this is off topic and wow that was a very surprising game, I didn't expect that.

Scarlett is just warming up

I love you Catz and Destiny! No srsly 4 real

I thought she had a big lead after killing those SCVs.

She had a 20ish harvester lead and a slight lead in income, but harvester count and income aren't the only factors that determine a lead in the overall game.

ilussion making some not standar moves...im impressed

man scarlett is just a step above these players, wow

Wow Illusion is cleanly dsimantling her, wp. Dayshi and him are really impressive today!

Yeah, me too I wasn't sure how he would play. But, we can tell hes been practicing his TvZ a lot.

That Muta/Bling style is so precarious.
|
That was unexpected. Good game from Illusion.
InControl vs Major next!
|
Scarlett will still make it out, imo. InControl will lose all 4 maps and afterwards... another ZvT for her 
|
seems like that muta ling bling style has been figured out, terrans know to do dmg early and rush 3-3 and it's over

Time for godmode Incontrol.

How where the first games? Did not expect Illusion to beat Scarlett at all, and after watching JD get stomped by Dayshi and MMA earlier...are terrans figuring out how to stop muta/bane/ling?
|
One of my best memories from WoL is the time where MLG poolplay was completely fucked and incontrol was still seeded. Major came out of the open brackets, incontrol did a one base voidray all-in, major a rax-cc-3rax, held the all-in and just kept expanding till like a 4-5 base while holding with his 3 raxes. So much fun.

Illusion was all over her. Good macro, micro, harassment, etc.

First game was the same thing, but Scarlett was in a worse spot earlier on, which resulted in her losing bases and crumbling.

So basically yes, muta ling/bling is now figured out. I'm honestly not very optimistic about her chances now, she will likely have to survive Incontrol's cheeses and then either a rematch with Illusion or Major's mech, both of which are probably likely to beat her.
It will be interesting to see how zergs adapt to this.

Dayshi and MMA pretty much tooled JD earlier today. It seemed like just standard zerg play which ran into a brick wall. Something changed.

I don't know why incontrol still bothers to play competitive sc2. I thought he switched to casting already.
Edit: sorry, did not know that this would generate so much criticism.

I reckon he should have gone for the bunker bust than trying to retake his natural. Oh well.

I don't know why people bother to make these shitty comments. It's not like Incontrol participates in a thousand lan events as a player. If he wants to play an online event for kicks, let the guy.

I think part of the problem is that players stick on it for too long without transitioning to ultras or infestors. Once thors start coming out it's harder to make it work, and you kind of have to make the terran make marauders

Your odd post suggested otherwise.
It seems like incorporating earlier Thors and forcing trades to keep the muta count down is how to counter the very heavy muta play of players like JD and Scarlett. This sounds a lot like Scarlett's predictability getting scouted and exploited by Illusion. I could see zergs going for lower muta counts and faster ultras if this becomes the norm in TvZ.

I know they say it can't be fixed, but the low audio is really a shame. Other than that, thoroughly enjoying this small tournament

If he beats Major and Scarlett back to back he would have a fairly solid claim to best NA terran, if not best player period. I fully expect him to beat Astrea if he plays like this.

I sincerely doubt she can change her style up enough on the fly to beat Illusion if he just does what he did an hour ago. He has a good read on her style. I see Major and Illusion making it through.
It's kind of odd that Scarlett seems to struggle in these NA competitions, but I guess there haven't been enough to draw any conclusions.

She's is probably the most incosistent player there is. She's always either completely on point and beating koreans or losing to random NA nobodys.

vs Canada: In these games, Scarlett is 34–5 (87.18%) in games and 16–1 (94.12%) in matches.
vs USA: In these games, Scarlett is 80–21 (79.21%) in games and 36–4 (90.00%) in matches.
vs Mexico: In these games, Scarlett is 5–1 (83.33%) in games and 2–0 (100.00%) in matches.
losing to the NA players is pretty rare and this already includes the Illusion match. He's the first person from NA to 2-0 her in a tournament. So I don't agree that she's either beating Koreans or losing to nobodies as her two performance modes. People have occasional slip ups

She's always either completely on point and beating koreans or losing to random NA nobodys. vs Canada: In these games, Scarlett is 34–5 (87.18%) in games and 16–1 (94.12%) in matches. vs USA: In these games, Scarlett is 80–21 (79.21%) in games and 36–4 (90.00%) in matches. vs Mexico: In these games, Scarlett is 5–1 (83.33%) in games and 2–0 (100.00%) in matches. losing to the NA players is pretty rare and this already includes the Illusion match. He's the first person from NA to 2-0 her in a tournament. So I don't agree that she's either beating Koreans or losing to nobodies as her two performance modes. People have occasional slip ups
Hitman's win was not a slip up, it was destiny

Holy shit. But Scarlett's ZvP Late game plan seems rather odd :-P
But there's still a chance... InControl can't win a Bo3 against Scarlett... he just... can't :o
|
Catz is sooo happy :D! Good game by Incontrol!
|
That was actually really impressive play by Incontrol. Normally I feel like incontrol gets too caught up in trying to do something tricky then fucks it up and that's why he loses, but that whole time he just reacted to what he saw, stayed calm and played really well.

Inc got two chances to do sick 1 base all-ins now and if just one manages to snag the win he can lock down his place as the last great American hope!

Scarlett certainly made a few key mistakes there too. She didn't take out the proxy pylon that sniped at least one of her hatcheries with zealots runbys, she didn't make any spores or spines to stop the dark templar harass, etc.
Really glad to see iNcontroL taking that win

Was it MLG where Incontrol almost managed to beat Illusion? I actually cheered for him then, too. Maybe I'm a bigger iNcontroL fan than I thought.

There a grand total of 2 players in this game that really interest me, JD and Scarlett. I watched JD get rolled by a foreigner in macro games earlier, and I'm about to see Scarlett get knocked out MLG by NA players.
I'm not asking for you to feel anything but joy if you cheer for Geoff, just a little sympathy for my plight.

I don't know what happened in the first game, but afterwards Scarlett dominated as usual :-P

That was pretty good. He was so close to glory. It could have happened.

Incontrol should feel proud, he won a macro game in a convincing manner

Incontrol is looking quite decent considering I thought he was semi-retired for casting etc

I wish there was a good way to watch this stream on my tablet. Need to go to bed but don't want to miss a rematch between Scarlett and Illusion :|
|
Well now it comes down to Scarlett being able to change it up vs Illusion. I just don't know if she can do it. I know she has the potential but we'll see what happens.

Anyone else get the website loaded but all i get is a grey or black screen? cant seem to load the player.

She looks rusty as all hell tbh. Out of practice possibly. I don't know, I'm kind of ok with her losing to Illusion, I'm just glad she didn't crash and burn completely.
The most annoying part would have been all the stupid trolls crawling out of the woodwork, TL is always unbearable for weeks after a big name player loses in a bad way.

Well, he kinda has to be over-aggressive. Scarlett is the better player overall, Illusion absolutely can't let Scarlett rest for a few minutes or he's just screwed, imo.
It worked out twice, didn't work once so far... lets see what's happening next :-P

Well, I hate to armchair coach, but it was a shame when he lost those two cloaked banshees. He could have done a lot of extra harass damage with them.
Of course, missing the drone stack with his hellions also was unfortunate

If Scarlett wins and gets out of the group over Illusion it's going to make me hate 4 player groups even more. I really don't like that two players can play each other twice, and the person who won the first set can still not make it out because of the second set. ttttttttttttttttttt

Well, Scarlett won 2 Bo3s, and Illusion only won 1 Bo3. Since they aren't tied in that sense, head to head shouldn't matter

It does feel kind of strange though when someone loses 2-0, then wins 2-1 in the rematch, and advances with 2-3 score over the other player. I understand the other guy didn't win enough Bo3, which is the point, but it still strikes me as somehow wrong.

I try to think of it in terms of the entire set of matches for the bracket, rather than just looking at two players' head-to-head in a vacuum. There may very well always be small oddities when looking at a fraction of the bracket, but the bigger picture usually provides more context

I understand the other guy didn't win enough Bo3, which is the point, but it still strikes me as somehow wrong.
that's how playoff series work in any sport though. there's a famous world series (1961?) where the pittsburgh pirates won four games out of seven by like one or two runs each but the yankees blew them out of the water for the other three games
the bottom line is, the rules of the sport mean you have to complete a match! winning a map doesn't mean you "deserve" anything unless the rules say it's a bo1

Oh it is wrong. Totally wrong. Round Robin is a much better system, which is used in most other sports and where people are actually comparable to eachother, becuase they play the same opponents. But in Starcraft people seem to favor this system and I still am not sure why.

because of obvious match fixing that happens every fucking time round robin is played
round robin also tends to force ridiculous tie-breakers, ridiculous map advantages that often allowed lesser player to advance (in sc2 bo1's tend to be quite random while bo3's quite less but in RR you still count single maps so one cheese can make a difference) and also takes more time to play out

The main page feature description notes this as a career defining match..

I figured it was about being up a game.
