Please try not to bash players, casters, countries, races, users, balance, apple pie, etc. in the Live Report threads. These threads are not meant for bashing. |

ok the first day was a joke, at least hope for some better games tomorrow, please do something with this pc's work all the night if you have to ( if the problem is actually with the pc's ), if it's a b.net 2.0 issue then go and trow a granade at blizzard's central office

It's a pity for Nightend, but it would be unfair on Zenio as well
On another point, why do Koreans play so much worse at IEMs than almost every other tournament out there? Zenio is playing half as good as he was in Code S (which still wasn't his best), JYP did pretty badly at the Changzhou [sic] tournament etc Zenio's playing pretty close to how he plays in GSL. He played a few bad sets there, but also some pretty good ones. I am not some high-level analyst but his play here thus far has been far, far below what we've seen from him before.

Gotta love Nani man, think he's going to take this tournament actually, but we'll have to wait and see.

I don't think so personally. His games today remind me of his play from code A matches, up n downs and code S.

The lag has been really bad the whole day and for example Nightend didn't go though his group because of it. Naniwa got mad after losing his first match vs Strelok because of the lag and said he would forfeit the tournament but he later got it together and went into beast mode and just crushed WhiteRa and TITAN thus getting first in his group. All his haters are mad as fuck right now because they got so happy when he said he would forfeit

Either way, it sucks for everyone so let's not try to start arguments. Some interview is going around, apparently Naniwa's computer has issues as well and he was experiencing far worse lag than anyone else.

Incidentally, I missed some of the early stages and now feel silly for buying into some of the Titan hype, at least looking at his results. How'd he actually play?
