Who else here watches the Tournaments? MLG is on now and IdrA and HuK are playing!
I feel I have to be up for IdrA this tournament.
Should I buy this game or not? I might if there was some sort of ragezone clan, I love RTS games as they dont require much time as MMORPG's.
yes you should, it's an insanly good rts, there's so much dynamic, no game is ever the same, ever.
and don, im watching, rootin for ret and idra. as i play zerg and idra is a total baller while ret coming from broodwar and just rapes everyone
IdrA just played amazingly well, LastShadow was all about the cheese.
Yes buy it, the storyline is fucking epic.
And yeah Asians and Zerg can kiss my ass. HOW THE FUCK ARE THEY SO GOOD?
IdrA is definitely a contender but I don't see him as a clear cut winner, top 5 no doubt though unless in an upset he gets knocked out. I believe he's playing qxc in the winner's bracket tomorrow morning, which will probably be the early highlight, with Drewbie vs HuK which should be a pushover really.
That stream quality was HORRIBLE, their game settings are way off :(.
Btw, that KiWiKaKi vs WhiteRa game was pretty epic. DT rush into nexus snipe into epic stalker micro. That would've definitely been completely different pre-patch. That nexus would've died the first time and possibly quite a few drones. That hallucination warp was just epic.
IdrA rage is epic lol. He's a completely cocky elitist asshole but I suppose when you're one of the best players in the world you have a little room to be elitist. A friend and I laughed earlier that it'd be hilarious if he lost to a reaper harass, post-patch. I would've lol'd so hard. I heard in the warmups he was destroying everyone.
Zergs aren't too big of a deal, you just have to keep up in macro. If they pull ahead too much, you'll lose every time. If you can delay the expo and force a 1-base, it's pretty easy to overwhelm them early on. Well timed 4-gates can also do enough damage to end the game early against zergs that don't scout it and respond appropriately. Terran can do similar with hellions/banshees for harass into a nice fast bio push to snipe down the expansion hatch.
And the hardcore Koreans are playing 12+ hours a day, that's how they are so good. :o
I've had this game, Collector's Edition no less, when it was first released... playing it often since, and I've YET to play a single League game, yet got 700+ custom games.
i.e. - I'm a UMS fanatic for it, so no I don't watch anything Tourny related as I got no interest with the Melee [normal] aspect of the game... :P
I fucking love custom games too Daedius lol. But yeah Dan. Worth buying.
meh ill order it later then maybe.
Yeah last nights came where seriously top notch, my personal favourite was probably Gretorp vs HuK and IdrA vs LastShadow.
Loved how LastShadow dared to cheese IdrA every matchup, I believe he did this so IdrA would lose his rag and through away a game. However he did play well the 2nd matchup, beating IdrA with the Thor cliff drop.
Hopefully some of the matches tonight will be even better.
Where are these vids at? the SCII site?
mlgpro.com - there is a free low def stream. I paid for the HD one.
Wow the guy in blue looks high as fuck...haha
idrA isn't really a rager anymore, he had a good reason to rage back 2 patches ago
Now with Zergs being the prominent race he won't have to rage? ;)
Roach Buff is a great addition, although with the speed any competent Zerg can get them out a little too imba imo.
