Machine is also the guy that went tit for tat against WhiteRa in a series of showmatches back in July or so, when WhiteRa was really more on the top of his game. I don't think it's fair to say he's just mediocre (even just as a top player) given that he won the first showmatch against WhiteRa 4-1. And sure, it's random seeds so it's inevitable he'll hit a teammate eventually; nobody is disagreeing with that.

But 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.

Some person i know can say It's a good skill toi be a top 3 zerg in NA:D

Update 2: Machine beats iNControL and SeleCT 2:0, looks like he took all points out of LCK and into STR when he made his character.


I almost pissed my pants laughing when I read this.

Fun fact: I often lift my left arm when playing to try and summon Machine's skills, ever since I saw him play back in the broodwar days.

For machine to be confirmed as unlucky he sure is rocking the brackets.

Best of luck to him, hope to see him in the finals.
Jinro vs. Machine finals. Calling it.

I think we can all agree that Machine has now been confirmed to be most baller EG player at MLG Dallas. After all the bad luck he's had in the past with MLG he's been a force to be reckoned with so far in Dllas.

A battle of two unlucky players, Jinro not qualifying for GSL twice and Machine not having the best of luck in tournaments. IMO they deserve this, both players have improved a lot since the start of SC2 and I can see both doing well in Korea now.

Still I think Select or Ret will take the tourney, they are the strongest players left.

The problem lies in the fact that Machine as a top player is mediocre. If he isn't even good enough to beat Incontrol, who is mediocre too, he won't get anywhere.

This is not intended as a flame but just stating the facts derived from tournament results.
