I had to leave after I saw the cocky blinks and the 2-1 advantage. Part of me is glad he was punished for his arrogance. Part of me is glad Losira won a tournament. Part of me is sad he didn't win. | ||

I've been very impressed with his play throughout the tournament and was cheering for him (you can see my post history saying things like 'DROGOD'). But I had to turn off the stream and the last thing I saw was him exhibiting levels of overconfidence. I felt like he could be punished for this, and he was. | ||

I do understand that; and I've been critical of Parting for the same reasons (which doesn't stop him being one of my favourite players, like Drogo is fast becoming) - but there were other things, like the losing of all the sentries in the first game (again, this didn't lose him the game, but it was demonstrative of overconfidence). My fear was that overconfidence, arrogance, would cause him to be blindsided and end up doing things that can be costly. Sorry if I caused offence; it wasn't my intention to come off as 'hating'. | ||

G1 if you want to see good Force Fields G3 if you want to see a pretty nice game G5 if you want to see Losira act cool under pressure G6 if you want to see Drogo pull the advantage bit by bit then throw it away with bad army positioning and offensive blinks. | ||

Blinking onto hydralisks and their insane DPS is a risky move at the best of times and Drogo did it at completely inappropriate moments. Despite that and despite losing 2 colossus that likely could have been saved with some extra care, he still almost won. He'll be kicking himself for that game, 100%. Yeah I still am unsure what messed up his decision making on MM, but it was sad to see | ||
