Honestly, MSL and OSL >>> Proleague in terms of importance. I don't see how someone as smart as NaDa would want to throw his chance in the individual leagues just to 'help' his team. It wouldn't even be really helping his team, since having your star player getting booted out of both leagues is not what anyone wants. Also @ Wasabi: Savior does not have to play T vs all other Zergs in MSL, I see you are not very well informed. | ||

So what, multiple-OSL champion NaDa can still win a match against the #11 on the PR ? Wow. Amazing. Big friggin' deal.

I am not saying Nada should've stayed this month, but for the NEXT month, and that's if he continues a good record in Proleague. Pantech still has a chance to make it in the playoffs if they win all their games AFAIK. Again, the odds are a shot in the dark, but that, to me, is a feat worth of a spot, no matter how low, in the PR. We all know NaDa alone is keeping his team alive and if there's anyone who'll be noticed there, it's him. How is that reasoning specific to him ? NaDa isn't even on his way to be the best Proleague player yet. Any player who'd dominate ProLeague so much as to get his team to win by himself could claim to be PR-level material. Except maybe if he choked so much that he couldn't pass through the first levels of OSL and MSL. Ahem. On June 11 2007 17:25 Wasabi wrote: This isn't what I'm arguing. It isn't speculation: READ THE INTERVIEW. READ THE INTERVIEW. READ THE INTERVIEW. Copy/paste of part of the interview (translated by LosingID8): What is the cause of your recent losses? >There are a few. Within in my team, including individual leagues my schedule is the busiest. Because of this, I don't have full grasp of the maps and my amount of practice is insufficient. I have to try harder. Your team has 2 consecutive wins. >In this proleague we have barely grasped the feeling of improving conditions. Although we have won 2 in a row, our winning percentage is not good. In the future, I will become more greedy in order to raise our win rate. Anyone who's copy-pasting three times the same three words sentence probably shouldn't be worth replying to. We're at the heart of the debate though - you're willing to accept everything NaDa said at face value, which fails to impress me as a mature and logical way of seeing things. Yes Virginia, people do sometimes have to lie ! I'm a NaDa fan AND I am indeed speculating his reply is an excuse. If you now excuse me, it's 3:00AM here - I think I'll do like NaDa said and actually quit. You, sir, are a winner. | ||

To say that sAviOr is "throwing" away games not just against GoRush (he has to play Terran against all Zergs at this point in MSL AFAIK), but to ALL Zergs he will meet is ludicrous. I have read several times that him playing terran was only for that one game (although he said in an interview that he wanted to try again in the future). Can any one confirm? I still think he really wanted to win that one though, but the 9pool on Monty Hall was pretty much a throw away. | ||

Why would he then think that he lost the trust of his staff if that was his intention? | ||

The guy just preformed poorly, was disappointed after and promised to focus more on Proleague to make up for his recent preformance and because his schedule was now not as full after his MSL faliure. | ||

But I'll be damned if it didn't make me laugh. =D 4 Protoss to be top there... has this ever happened? Toss were the BEYOND underdogs. Terrans only ever reigned, and then Zergs started to get power with JulyZerg, then Savior. This new Protoss dominance, along with Reach coming back up there, and old veterans like rA still sticking up there can only mean one thing... Garimotoss has secretly been training them all and will soon conquer all the progamers. But in all reality... <3 MANTOSS!!!~ | ||
