EPTBut to draw the same thing randomly three times in a row is simply unlucky. That's the definition of bad luck... random things swinging against you rather than back and forth. I think Machine just gets nervous at LANs, and under performs. I'm hoping he can change that around this time, since I really think he's in the top 3 zergs in NA.

I mean did yuo see how easy it was for Machine to Win? Scouts 1/1/1 banshee, okay, make a bunch of banelings, GG. All this is because terran is unable to put on early pressure that can diminish the Zerg's opportunities. Again all this is as far as I can see, I am not provoking QQing but simply analysis. | ||

You should watch FoxeR vs FruitDealer. SeleCT was outplayed. | ||

If you care about the integrity of this or any other tournament than team affiliations should NEVER influence seeding. Invitational tourneys may be an exception. I am really surprised that so many people seem outraged about teammates facing each other. Congrats to Machine however for doing so well to this point. | ||

Remember that select has publicly announced that he didn't have any zerg practice partner leading up to DC just a few weeks ago and that zerg vs terran meta game is very highly developed (since there is no protoss representation in the gsl herp derp). Zergs have figured out how to pick apart terrans and I think a lot of terrans are still used to being ahead in the mid game because of pre 1.12 "abuse" and now that the play field is leveled, a lot of terrans are struggling to figure out how to deal with mid-late game zergs. | ||

Too true its been happening a lot the only people members of team liquid have lost to are other team liquid members. But when 2/3s of the seeded players (made up statistic but its still A LOT) and about half the entire field are split between 3 or foir teams its gonna happen. EG Machine FTW | ||

There are like 7 EG players in this tourney, and a bunch of Liquid, Root, etc., when it is acceptable for two players on the same team to face each other? Ro8? Ro4? Finals?

Congrats to Machine however for doing so well to this point. read the thread? hes unlucky because he faced incontrol early on for the past 2 MLGs as well. | ||
