How can you whine about blink in PvP?

Blink Stalker whine and some cheese, because you know, cheese and wine. xD

Both these players deserve to be here and it should be a great final.

4 years and people are still this off. There is nothing in a macro game that makes it more legit, more honorable or w/e than any other type of game. Even though people like to deny it, this game is still fairly decently balanced given how hard it is to achieve that in a RTS. There will always be a strongest race in the current meta and it just happens to be protoss, both players deserve to be in this final and the better play will win today. People seriously need to tune down the QQing and man up.

I'd just wish the guy going second wouldn't have wasted an entire weekend of time... For once I actually hope a prize split was agreed upon, I hate to see these young men who sacrifice their 20s for a shot at being the best in the world wasting a full week of practice.

sOs is the greatest protoss on earth, people who don't like him probably didn't like Da Vinci or Mozart either

I'm an sOs fan. I'm not even mad he beat JD, who I am also a fan of.

But Mozart is a shitty and overrated composer.


Mozart is overrated? WTF? Requiem mass? String Quartet in Dminor? Clarinet Quintet? Don Giovanni Overture (penned in under an hour???) Ummm yeah Overrated ...lol goodwork

Requiem is the only thing by Mozart I consider worth listening to, a swan song of sorts. The string quartet and clarinet quintet are far too refined and self-restricted. Might be just a product of the classical era of the 18th century, but there's a lack of any real emotion in either one of the two.

I don't care if Don Giovanni took an hour or a year to write. Composing isn't a race. At least this one isn't banal like a lot of his other works, but it's still not anything like the huge reputation we give him for some reason.

Mozart wrote most of his work to a formula, and it survives because the formula was in style at the time. He was the child pop star of his day, and wrote for anyone who would pay him money because that's how he made his living. His art wasn't primarily for the sake of exploration or discovery or beauty, it was for bread. Maybe he was a musical genius, but it's not evident in most of his music.

Beethoven is a brilliant composer of the Classical era. Haydn is a brilliant composer of the classical era. Mozart is not.

Also lol wut


Schubert for me is the ultimate composer...and the String Quartet in D minor including the string quintet in g minor by mozart were both huge for Schubert... 1) they push the texture possible for chamber music and 2) they are highly emotional and force the sonata model to bend to emotional tension.

Beethoven agreed, Haydn was a very good composer,,,but only that - not genius.

As for composing as a race...that was not my point...my point was: to produce music of such a high quality in such a short time is an apt example of why Mozart is a giant still today.


The jealousy of Salieri is purely fictional - Play by Peter Schaeffer...


PS: gooooo sOs!!!

Schubert is a wonderful composer, but he took Mozart's music and carried it somewhere. He and Beethoven are really the ones who started the Romantic era, which I have to admit I'm biased towards.

I like Haydn's music because it's happy beyond just the neutral-happy in vogue at the time. The trumpet concerto for instance shows off the trumpet player's skill while still offering a lot of emotion.


Why Mozart is a good composer:


I can understand this hate though, I used to have prejudices against Mozart myself when I first started listening to classical, but with time I am beginning to understand more and more why he was so great. Albert Einstein said “Mozart’s music is so pure and beautiful that I see it as a reflection of the inner beauty of the universe.” I acknowledge him as the third greatest composer of all time after Bach (#1) and Beethoven (#2).

I can't view the video atm but isn't the 40th symphony the one that has been called "eight remarkable measures surrounded by a half-hour of banality" by Glenn Gould?

Agreed. It has to suck to get nothing but... points... for a close second place.

i don't really care about viewer numbers. i was talking about the fact this match is for 100k dollars. which is silly on IEM's end imo but that's been talked to death anyways. i'm not bitter, i just don't care to watch this
