No mention of the 1hr+ delay thanks to Blizzard's decision to not include LAN? We really letting them off the hook that easy?


AFAIK HerO could not log in. As long as you have to be logged in the LAN actually does not help because how the hell LAN helps if you cannot log in to use it?

HERO!!!!! YEAH! I'm so sad I could not wathc because of the delay After the work vods ^_^ Yaaaaay
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

No, not really for everyone. And this isn't balance whining, Jaedong made such stupid mistakes and decisions that he lost easily won game because Yaonsu is Protoss favored map, and such mistakes are heavy punishable.

Gratz HerO !

A bit sad for Polt though, seeing him winning against Rain gave me so much confidence in him winning the tournament...

Oh and what was that drama I missed ? (Wait, I'll get my pitchfork).

Jaedong losing game 5 to HerO after beating his all in and being up in army/worker supply? It was quite disappointing to say the least but Jaedong shouldn't have throw away his lead by losing 15-20 roaches on 2 gateways and an immortal.


Oh okay. I missed quite a few games of the semis (I'll check the VODs then).
Thanks

EDIT: Ooooh I knew about it in fact, thanks to R1CH hahaha !



Thats so funny and so sad at the same time...

I usually hate Protoss as much as anybody but this tournament was just about great players making great games. Hero might be a bit cheese but who would blame him? Rain, Polt, JD would have also deserved to win.

IEM delivers again!

Well, only mistake I saw was building Hydras. That game was the showcase game to DK for planned Hydra buffs.

The hydra buff would give JD 10 more hydra but he would still lose and the immortal would have 80 kills.

dont hate my ass, but Im not happy about hero winning this, someone should tell the kid to calm down or seek help, it was a pain to watch these camera shots where he was about to cry after a game he won = wtf


How do you know hes not seeking for help? He has stated many times that he has. Some health issues havent been solved by medicine you know. You will grow up and feel this first hand, although I wish you wont have to. Especially after 35yo you'll see.

On a second note, the tournament had very good games, but I DO NOT UNDERSTAND in ANY WAY why they dont START the tournaments EARLIER FFS. They lost 30k viewers because of the time, maybe more. The delay played little part. Start the damn tournament earlier Im at work having 4 hours of sleep and its not the first time.

Oh I would have stayed up for the finals if it had been JD vs Polt and I am sure tons of others would have done the same thing.
Sure you can blame the time for some of them, but its no surprise that viewership peaking in the JD series and fell after he lost

This has been a really nice tournament, starting with the stacked Dual Tournament until the final bracket plenty of great games. Also a nice cast imho. HerO is such a good fighter, even when his level is at times below expected, he always comes back to show he's not done winning tournaments. A very few players can do that honestly.
