Get off the bandwagon and worship someone that you are actually famaliar with. He's not a god, or really a good sc2 player comparatively, more often than not seemingly anymore all he does is cute cheeses.i want to see him crash hard. on the other hand if he plays brilliantly and straight up. tear yourself a path all the way to the finals! something mushmushy i <3<3<3 everyone something On July 25 2011 04:07 cavalier117 wrote: So i havent read every single post in this thread (about 16 of the 25 pages) But i got to say that I'm really liking the intelligence of this thread. i expected this to be primarily a flamefest (to IdrA mostly) but its not. everyone is being smart and making choices with logical reasoning and people arent being trolls. The Internet wins this day. let it be recorded. So just because not a lot of people want to see IdrA fail this is a victory on intelligence for you? Since I'm reading you trolling about Tyler and Boxer and EVERYONE in this thread seems to differ on you opinion about them. | ||

IdrA: Big fan, and has shown amazing gameplays. DRG: Phenomenal Zerg player. Definitely will do well. Boxer: He is, the Emperor, so I wish that he can win with a trophy in his hands again. | ||

DRG MVP IdrA Fail: Tyler - he doesn't practice or make serious attempts at playing Destiny - incredibly overrated. Also, I hate his fanboys more than any other group in the SC2 community. Incontrol - shouldn't still be in the groups; he was grandfathered in from easier MLGs | ||

HuK - He's just been doing great recently, from his dual title win, to playing as the ace for oGs, his skill level has just skyrocketed. I can't wait to see his games vs. NaNiwa and DRG. Plus, GO CANADA! KiWiKaKi - His results have been sort of lacklustre from the recent tournaments that I've seen (Columbus/IPL2), and he is still great. Also, I'd love to see Reign make a good showing in their first major tournament as a team. Plus, GO CANADA! DongRaeGu - He's great, and of all the Koreans, he is my favourite to win. He quite deserves the Code S slot, I believe (Not saying that BoxeR and MMA don't, I just like DRG right now  ). He is definitely quite a powerhouse! Plus, GO ZERG!Failures: IdrA - He's good, but I've really just never liked him. I've always been all for honour and respect, and IdrA is definitely not that. Destiny - Likewise. MajOr - See above .There are others that I'd like to see do well, (BoxeR, SLush, iNcontrol, Choya, TL, etc.) but these are my tom 3. | ||

DRG, Boxer, MMA, I'd like to see any one of them win the code S spot Fail: Foreigners, I don't care for the foreign scene at all and I personally think they are nowhere near the level of Koreans | ||

To Succeed DRG The guy has been giga clutch in GSTL. While some people in this thread say that hes "Overrated" Because he hasn't had the results in the individual tournaments. These people memories are quite selective given he just won LG 3D Cinema tournament. Personally i feel that DRG might have stamina problems hence the reason he hasn't made it through Code A qualifiers, given the format of MLG a big part of it is about stamina we'll see how he performs. To Exit Early Boxer Unfortunately this really doesn't have to do with Boxer at all. Its the hype that surrounds him, thats what drives me crazy. Boxer won a game in GSTL a couple weeks ago, where he proxied 2 Rax vs a 1 rax CC build. Though people were actually excited about this silly win, though it was completely irrelevant in terms of skill. Its those kinda of blind, supporters that turned me against him. MMA I was very neutral on this guy for some time, but this guy literally wins every time i want him to loose. And Looses every time i want him to win. So now i'm just kinda annoyed with him. | ||

1. Boxer for champ need to see him in code s 2. Huk cause he is Canadian 3. Dongraegu dude needs a code A spot to prove himself 4. MMA needs a reset to prove he can hack code A To not succeed 1. Team EG 2. Protoss (because I can't beat them and it makes me sad) | ||

Destiny: First stream I started watching back in August and it has been seemingly a storybook development since, he has really developed as a player and has soared to new heights. With his new popularity, people tend to sling shit at him for seemingly trivial reasons (like people citing that he is an attention whore and sucks @ the game etc) which really is bullshit. He seems to be that of a common man's story, unconventional, but sincere; also he is an underdog in the majority of people's view so that has the making to be a great story. MVP: Extremely good Terran, seems to be in a slump recently which is a shame because of the success he has had in SC2, we all know he is a good player, just look at how he could play Brood War (yeah he wasn't a bonjwa, but he was pretty damn good at the end of his BW career, a time where BW is laid out to a science). He is also very fun to watch (one of the few Terrans I enjoy watching). I just love to see this guy succeed considering his background and all. DRG: He is zerg and he is a beast, and that much many people are willing to deny. But I say it is time for him to prove himself and prove all the naysayers wrong. (also all the anti-koreans, i don't understand the ethnic fanboyism whether it be only wanting Koreans to do well or only wanting foreigners to do well; just a trivial concept imo). Also I would love to see him in Code S, as he is definitely good enough. Boxer: I know this is 4, but this has to be mentioned, one of the most charismatic faces in all of gaming. Everyone wants this guy to do well. Hope to fail Major: I don't need to explain this one. Huk: Never been a fan, never will be. Haypro: Never understood the hype behind him and I don't think I ever will nor want to, because he just seems uninteresting as a player. Prove me wrong and I may think otherwise. Honorable mention: Team EG | ||

He said he wanted to take a break from traveling to catch up on practice. He said he was missing too much practice time with all the jet lag and flying time. However, this was before the SK deal, so he will probably be out and about to everything after Anaheim. He'll probably be at Raleigh etc... | ||

Especially for Spanishiwa - So.... you're hoping he fails just because people like him? Really, dude? It's the OP's personal opinion, relax. My hope of succes is Idra, hope of fail is major. Seen him acting like a little kid in streams of other people. | ||

DeMusliM - Fellow Brit, would be awesome to see him do well after his injuries. MVP - Hasn't been doing particularly well recently by his own high standards, one of my favourite players so I hope he uses MLG as a springboard to re-establish his old dominance. IdrA - I always like seeing IdrA do well, as long as he doesn't get knocked out by a foreigner I'll be happy. To lose: Choya - His play doesn't impress me at all, a lot of the stuff I've seen him do is cheesy or some all-in timing. To me he's a bad version of Inca without the sick PvP skills. TLO - With his injuries he's unable to practice and/or play to his full potential. So I would rather see someone else advance over him. DongRaeGu - Nothing against him personally as he's a fantastic player, although seeing as he'll be playing HuK and Naniwa I am forced to hope he loses! | ||
