If by that you mean Mid-West > West Coast then I agree. Lol I remember back when PC Gamer did the Showdown LAN, the midwest one in Peoria, IL sold out and they added 100 seats and then those sold out. The one in California sold about 300 of the 500 available seats. Also, Sundance said that MLG Columbus broke almost every record they had. I'm calling it right now that MLG Columbus will trump MLG Anaheim as far as turnout goes. Mid-West fighting!!!!!  | ||

I think thats why my harass play works. I find this quote really elegant and interesting, even though I'm not exactly sure what he means by it. I think he's trying to say that players find dropping easier to defend or react to with the larger control groups, or that the streamlined nature of the game and macro in general makes players lazy about micro as well (when it seems like it would do the opposite)? Therefore his heavy drop play works because it's already strong and forces a reaction, but he believes any Terran can (and probably should) play this way? Really interesting quote. Thanks Milkis, MMA FIGHTING! MLG was great. | ||

Thanks Milkis, MMA FIGHTING! MLG was great. he means people are 1aing to much if he drops 8 marines, zergs sends 50 ligns to clean up the drop instead of 20. which gives him more map control to move around freely etc. | ||

I think he feels that way about other Terrans too, simple one hotkey syndrome, as well as the enemy reacting too strongly like you said. | ||

Also something to ellaborate on that, in the majority of TvZ most players stop heavy drop play after mutas. But when MMA would send a medivac out it would almost distract the mutas. I mean whats a few marines + medivac if you now can reposition your army without fear of mutas picking off things? | ||

Anaheim is their only west coast event cause they used to do more but couldn't even fill out the player rosters. | ||

every MLG employee can sleep very very very good for the next days and i had alot of fun this weekend rooting for players i like. MLG looked so solid and its so awesome to hear koreans want to come back and play again. thanks america delivering so good content. europe/ESL really has to step up with the IEM ! ! ! observer wise of course. its sad to see the ESL does not seem to put the same amount of effort into the scene (besides take/homestory cup). i think MLG and GSL should even work more together. bringing more koreans to MLG and more foreigners to GSL. <3<3<3<3 just awesome. | ||
