I remember reading something about a retarded Infestor somewhere...

Spoiler

The others have no such excuse though

Well, 50 minutes to go.
I'm sure this thread will "improve" then

 

[Bloodcount]

We probably should only use spoilers for results and when discussing a particular game. Then again, if you feel like posting everything in spoilers, do so : P

 

[celerisk]

The important thing is not to miss great Zerg action from Stephano! (match ongoing at time of posting)

HuK vs MarineKing in about 10 minutes!

Shakuras plato. When you do this build you go for 4-5 spines, not one, because else this can happen. The variation of stephano is a lot more macro orientated - He cloud expand much faster and had more drones, which is always good, as well as have the mutalisks up a bit faster (because he took the other 2 vesps faster. If boxer had desided to take a fast third instead of attack, the game would be in the bag for stephano.

 

[celerisk]

Never attribute to luck what can be adequately explained by flawless execution.

 

[Bloodcount]

That is a pretty solid argument, however in starcraft II some builds are just made to kill other builds. For example a good marine-tank push is meant to kill a zerg who has taken a fast third and has delayed his gas and roach tech. Or the forge first expand a 6 pool and so on and so on.



They were pretty good games. Let's see what huk has to show.


EDIT: Gogo Sase !

 

[celerisk]

Certainly.
Then again, on hindsight it's always... well, it's neither "very" nor "simple", but it's still very simple to see what went "wrong" or so.

The classic argument would be "If only the Colossus were coming out 5 seconds sooner...".
Point being, it didn't.
When stuff happens, you have to deal with it now. Not in 5 seconds.

Anyway, while, on the one hand, the greatness that is

Boxer

can not be denied,
you also, on the other hand, can't deny the impressiveness that is

Spoiler

Stephano

Great games.


> Let's see what huk has to show

[Jedimindtrixxx]

im not sure who i want to win the tourny... Idra is a zerg, but HuK is canadian...

they should merge into Hidra. that way i could be decisive.
but they wont.. yet... so i will continue to be happy with

Spoiler

huk being in the winners finals!

and hope for

Spoiler

idra to advance to the championship finals.

anyway, Idra v BoxeR, idra up 2-0 from the start! go idra!

also, Day[9]/Husky is the best commentating combo out of any e-sport commentators imo. i also like artosis, but not tasteless. if you swapped day[9] or husky for artosis id be happy as well. also cant stand J.P. i dont know why but i just dont like him. As for Wheat, i dont really have an opinion

 

[celerisk]

Well, it's somewhat sad to see

Spoiler

Boxer

go. But, damn, he certainly delivered.

As Artosis put it:

Spoiler

I don't understand how. But it's Boxer

I agree

 

[Bloodcount]

that game when

Spoiler

he moved to the gold and won

wrote history.

 

[celerisk]

In other news, while I most certainly don't ever want to see

Spoiler

the last Zerg go,

I must, though, say that, this time, I'm making an exception to that rule.

Well, we'll see.
