lots of great games...
castro has some damn swarm usage and micro.
Yan is a cheesy fucker. i loled how he lost 50 supply when recalling into a minefield
incontrol manner, good games vs shaman. that guy remined me of boxer when he went overlord hunting. good preparation.
also, germans owning :O
|
nooo avi! nooo g5 wtf! and avi, you could've won g2 by owning that single canon so easily with your 9pool speed... :S Well, shit happens... grats to all the winners!
Btw, gl to ret on his upcoming zvz... hope you've been practicing. :D
|
yeah Yan was definitevely the worst player in top 48, totally underserved, that guy just knows how to proxy -_-!
|
i was seriously impressed with infernals pvz - quite sick play compared to many other games played today/yesterday
tt1 with clean well executed builds looked solid too, this is his best game
probably have to mention ghosta, he played super safe and still managed to outplay yan everywhere
the rest didnt look as good as these 3, maybe because of their matchups
|
i actually played really sloppy pat's games looked solid.. apart for 1 small macro slip in game 2 he played really well
|
fuck TSL2 is like WCG germany lol. I feel bad for Inc thats some gay shit to get knocked out of the TSL by lol. Whats the correct way to stop that anyway? Just throw down like 4 sunkens and hope they finish?

I am disappoint, though. Well that's what you get for overhyping your players, I bet it tastes bitter now. But nice of inc and G5 to be so well mannered about everything, I would have expected at least some sarcasm, if not BM. Look, it's only natural to praise someone when you are friends with a player, that you've played a ton with, a player whose strengths you've all seen lots and lots of times. They've seen tons of games of them, you might only have seen games from them for the first time now. Also, ret is not American, he still talked about how great players like nyoken are, surely that's not blind patriotism then, is it. Oh and, another player they hyped up a lot: Infernal. Why? Because they know him well and know that he's capable of much more than what he's showed in the past when it mattered. Can't just be Americans hyping players up just cause they're American.
While what you say is mostly true, the SC "media" went farther than just saying that they are good players, which indeed they are, no one said otherwise. They said that, since they don't know Flaf and almost never heard of him he must be a worse player than G5 and will surely lose. I find it hard to imagine how any person can make such a statement, without knowing what each side is capable off. If that isn't blind patriotism I don't know what is.

Flaf an upset ? I was posting from the start that flaf will win both cloud or g5 who ever goes through r1 you just overestimate known nicknames -.-; just stick to hyping korean games cz some of you have no knowledge of the foreign scene whatsoever -.-; 90% of the games i predicted came to happen tho flaf and shaman wont pass imho through r3 castro might tho -.-;
|
hell EVERY SINGLY qualified german player has won both rounds (everyone exept  Kolll of course)! even  HoRRoR! 
and  GhosTa did a great job defeating  Yan, even though he lost the second game, which was completely unnecessary. i mean he scouted the cheese almost instantly - and then...? trying to defend 2gate zealots with 1 marine and 1 scv repairing the depot...?!? i dont get it.
and  CloseR... winning the first zvz with guardians and devourers! epic 8)
|
infernal, in game 2 i wondered, if you didnt +1 on purpose or if you forgot/misclicked. I think this could have cost u the games. Grats for winning anyways

Just watched Flaf vs. G5 game 1. Flaf has amazing macro, he is definitely for real. He plays really well lategame, which says alot, though he did have a shaky start. I definitely recommend that game, it's 50 minutes
|
 MikOeL vs  XiaOzI was really impressive. Game 1 and Game 3 are were the best.
I really liked  MikOeL's playstyle. Very aggressive in TvZ, lots of harass, and great decision making. Unfortunately he slipped up on the lurkers attacking his nat in game 3 which was a gamebreaker for him. I expect great things from him in the  Future.

After watching most games, I think many players have no clue how to play outsider. It's just so different.

you not gonna be laughing when idra wins the tournament son First of all, I'm not laughing, I'm just happy  As to the matter of Idra, I don't think he even belongs into this tournament because a) he's in a motherfucking Korean pro team and b) he should be excluded from every tournament for his unprofessional and disrespectful behavior towards other players. I agree with a) but b) is pretty stupid. Let's just hope another german will pull a kolll. Maybe kolll himself

what ever, he makes good decisions and that gave him the victory vs arew and almost vs xiaozi

germany = korea of europe :O
I'm surprised by group g's results. I was sure dreiven would definitely make it out of that group
|
G5 Inc Avi
GJ to everyone who qualified!
I really want to see how Yan played against Ghosta, I've never seen a single game of his 1v1
