lol wow Cloud was one of the only r3 people I voted for to advance. I am a little surprised but mostly impressed. I would of been happy with either player advancing. The games G5 just put up were quite simply amazing timing and army control. Although it must be said that cloud played rather sub-par for some of it especially when losing his first reaver in game 2 for basically nothing.

But GL G5, I can't wait to see you PvZ.

It was very frustrating, I play so bad in tournaments. My preparation this time was far superior to g5 but I get too nervous and make shitty decisions, like making 4 templars before researching storm in the first game or even forgetting to research storm in the second one. I won't congratulate to g5 because I think he actually played bad (going for blind, unsafe builds without having a clue of what I was doing), but well in the end the mistake was mine trying to think I can compete in tournaments even though I always get nervous and ansious to the point of not being able to think logically at all.

Man game 2 was VERY exciting, i was shocked when Cloud lost. But why didn't he cast storms? No research? :/
I guess with storms Cloud would have been in way better situation, especially when 2 reavers were near each other with attack at his nat. But gotta say - G5 really made a good job with his last attack.

I'm going to let cloud finish here, but G5 had one of the best PvP probe cuts of recent TSL2 history.

I hate that kind of unmannered posts. Ok, you lost. Just stand it. He played better than you. Talking about having a "far superior preparation" or not congratulating, because "G5 played bad", is simply disrespectful. You won't win any friends talking like this.

I am not gonna state he played good if he played without scouting at all, nor I am gonna state he had a better preparation when he obviously didn't. Why is it unmannered? Have you even watched the replays?

G5s timing in game1 was nice... he hit cloud right before storm was finished. i'm not sure, if he would have won the game 30 seconds later (as storm was finished as he crossed clouds bridges).
but it seemed to me that storm came pretty late for cloud though...

ggs & congrats to g5!

both of u were going blind game 1 (thats alittle part of the charm in pvp). none of u really checked out each other alot so g5 decided so cut probe and 2base while u mass probe and 3base... so it wasnt really just him who played unsafe. its pvp there is not really any "safe" build if ive understood this correctly from other toss users. g5 played better than u and he deserved to win and if u get nervous we still shouldn't take any credits away from g5

if ur nervous u should figure out a way to get past that instead of giving up at playing these tournaments if u enjoy them so much

Grats to G5, though I think there was a good deal of luck involved (more specifically, unpredictable mistakes from Cloud's part). Cloud having a bunch of templars out but late/no storm research was something G5 couldn't possibly have known/worked into his strat, but it was a big factor in both games. Seemed like Cloud was definitely having a bad case of the nerves . Not to take too much credit away from G5. His army positioning was really impressive, particularly the game 1 concave at Cloud's bridge third. Good stuff.

yay g5!! lets go usa! I don't like cloud response in here cause even if it is 100% true its lose lose and still makes you look like a jerk regardless. Might as well just say u were nervous instead of taking something away from g5. EIther way.. Lets go usa!
I may not be the best player right now but I think I can beat any 'best' players. I'll beat all the best players and become the best player. Watch me. - Jju

G5 making blind decision? Wtf are you guys talking about? he had perma observer scounting every single move that ClouD made... (note the obsever following the shuttle)
I thing G5 had better ingame instinct decision, those reavers sniping made the GG.
HeLL yeah!

You do not play pvp like that on destination because when you attack on the other side of the map the opponent has a better unit count than you and can defend on the bridge mid map (and even if he cut probes I did have same units as him plus 4 templars without storm lol, but I even failed to move these 4 decisive goons on my third along with my army). That's why I said he played bad on game one, because I think that's an obsolete tactic that can eventually work if your opponent pretty much fails at macroing or having their units together. Game 2 was even more ridicolous, nexus before robo on that map is totally meaningless because any reaver push or dt build rapes it pretty bad (especially because it's easier to scout on outsider and it's not a big map). The fact I played worse than him and he deserved victory more than me as how bad I played is a fact I am not denying at all. It's just hard to bear the frustration of playing at half your capabilities in tournaments you should do better than you do in your standard practice games. That said I still wish g5 good luck against Flaf in the next round, I obviously just felt like sharing my opinion about this and it's not meant to be a personal attack against him.

If Flash has a good timing is because of his skill, if a foreign has a good timing it is because of his luck.

G5 won, it means he is better at this moment. Results matter.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.
