Select is simply outmacro'ing Remix.
Good bye billy !

So I guess nobody can argue ConbraVenom is masters and just has nerves now. He lost 0-2 against a platinum player. Something is weird about him, not his account maybe.

I guess they didn't get 128 players?

Is Filoleg the next zerg bonjwa??

Yeah either boosted account or borrowed. Level of play was probably around gold league, but very entertaining :D

Gold don't have 6k bank on 1 base.

Platinum Zerg beats Master Protoss in completely one-sided games? Clearly Zerg is imba.

No, it comes from people who buy products marketed at tournaments. You think Redbull put up 25k and a whole stage and cast because they just liked SC2? No.

No. Normally people aren't really interested into sports they don't play, or didn't play in the past. Amateur scene allows people to "experience" the competition and meet a lot of people. I don't know this generation, but mine (i am from the early eightys), almost everybody i knew was on a football club. Guess which is the most popular sport on Spain by far. Do you think it is just for watching it ? Or because generations after generations play football ?
The money, is a byproduct of how well the amateur scene has managed to capt people interested into the sport.
Edit - yes, wrong quote xd

And even if it was, if you are going into a tourny as a craptastic low-level player isn't your only focus to "Right Shirley, you are building probes and buildings and units, if you ever macro like an ass and have cash coming out of every single building, just raining, you build more buildings so you can macro still crappy but in bigger chunks! YES! SPEND MONEY!"
Not spending your money just never makes sense.

Arguing with foreverkul is a fruitless and frustrating experience. For your own sake, it is best to just avoid getting sucked in.
