[WCS] Playoffs Day 2 - Season 3 2015 - Page 236
| Forum Index > StarCraft 2 Tournaments |
Senseless bashing of foreigners and WCS game quality is not permitted today. Criticism is fine, but let's not repeat yesterday's mess. Games can be enjoyed without the presence of constant vitriol. 14:18 GMT (+00:00) Edit: This is your friendly reminder that whining about Protoss is an old and tired thing. Don't. -Zealously | ||

Being 100% sure you won't lose to someone requires to be so much ahead of him. Lilbow isn't a great player in the grand scheme of things but in a bo5 there is not many players I'd be 100% sure they're gonna win. How biased do you have to be to claim that because someone had close games vs mkp they have a snowballs chance in hell vs byul? You realise Byul is the top 1 zerg atm? Still not out of gsl and in ssl finals? Beat so many strong players to get there. But lilbow won vs mana and had close games vs marineking. Edit: oh you politely called him a trash player sorry I didn't notice. I still stand by my point that byul would beat him 9-0 in a bo3 | ||

I don't think anybody here called that the hardest tournament ever, except the same people who try to mock those who are happy for Lilbow? | ||

Yup it's going to be hard but not impossible. I don't really like Lilbow, i don't like that he the Protoss version of a meching terran. I don't like that he is going to Blizzcon while players like soO are not. But he is working wonders, he is performing really good and he uses all the tools he has to win. People should not hate him for doing that, he is doing what most P's are doing at the moment and what's working out best. If that's a good thing is another discussion | ||

I'd definitely add herO to that list since Lilbow is almost pure blink stalker in PvP. And no way in hell does herO lose a blink war | ||

I think general consensus was that they were disfavored against both CJ and SKT. The point is that people look at how teams and players have played in the past and assume that rapid returns to form are out of the question, even when such returns have happened to the very same teams/players before. Predicting KT to be shut down by SKT is just as iffy as thinking a slumping 9-time premier champion wouldn't regain his edge in 8 weeks of concerted practice. Just a pet peeve. | ||

But lilbow won vs mana and had close games vs marineking. you just don't understand the point i'm making. If lilbow was in Korea he'd be at best code A. There isn't a lot of players that I'd say are 100% invulnerable to code A players. You just need to look at PL to be sure of that with people like departure or panic getting good wins. And lilbow vZ is like his only chance at blizzcon atm. | ||

I'll have to get the exact words he said to believe that. Yes if he said that it is false and stupid. Still not a reason to constantly remind that GSL is higher level than WCS. | ||
