Goswser came up with a counter build to Life's play that centers around a Roach/Bane bust at a specific timing. Life lost twice, then adapted and crushed it every time.


That's not a bad strategy to use. Kudos to Goswser for the planning.

I couldn't plan, I had to play the match 1 hour after I beat MVP, because I was leaving for Vegas.


Well then sick run! Such an imba player! :D Look forward to seeing you do well at some LANs next, hopefully this can be the year you get a ton of deep runs in tournaments!

goswser, please stop posting in LR's, you're making up excuses again, and whether you meant for it to be an excuse or not, doesn't change the fact.

Everytime you say something in a LR, it will spread, and possibly twisted, and it will only end up giving you a bad imagine.

I also guess most players played fast after their first match, as MKP played MC on the same day as HerO.

It's not to keep you "hanging in," they're putting it at a better time so more people can watch it. -__-

Nice dick move moving the only non-zvz match even further back.

"relax"?

he is absolutely correct, moving a match further back after already announcing it, is a dick move.

If I only wanted to catch the one of the matches, then I would assume minimum 1 hour per Bo5, and plan my schedule accordingly.

it was actually planned but didn't get the info before posting the OP, since things are pretty rushy I didn't ask about it before hands, sorry about that.

Keep in mind that you're provided with a 100% free HD stream, switchin a game is not a "dick move" since it's not to drag the audence but rather to have the most peoplehaving the games they want to watch (8pm is closer to a prime time)

regards

The HD stream looks fantastic btw.
Besides the ZvZ, for which you are not to blame of course, everything else has been perfect: schedule, casters, organisation, layout and so on. Good job, I hope for many more IronSquids to come!

Did he or did he not have to leave for Vegas? Why are you calling him out for making an excuse? Excuse for what? For you? Is he not merely stating the particulars of his circumstance?

Ah, that blows. I'm sure you would've adapted better in the last three games if you had more time to feel out the series. Still you had a great run in the tournament and barely lost to (arguably) the best player in the world.

Fair enough, so I guess that means its is expected to be the most anticipated game of the series today?

If it was rushed, then it's all good, but replying with "relax" just sends the completely wrong message, should just of replied with what you just told me.
