C'mon, what's with the sudden change of confidence? You guys have FLASH ffs.
If flash was playing sc2 for 2 years full time of course he will take you guys down in a minute not a problem .
Oh but rumors say that he reached Masters league without even knowing how the units in the game work in SC2. If that's not an indication of his supposed greatness in SC2, I don't know what it is. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
If they do send them to mlg right now they must be pretty dumb all right ...
If they send them to compete in the main event and expect them to do well they are pretty dumb that's for sure. There's really no way that's what is going to happen.
Flash losing to a random NA player who came to the event as a spectator but signed up to play in the open bracket as well would be the biggest hype kill in the history of hype kills, and it could happen too considering he has barely played the game at this point. Replace Flash with any other name, It's just an example.
It wouldn't kill the hype, only the irrational hype. It is what it is.... if he's going to play SC2 its, better to know where he stands than try and hide. Thats what sports is about, testing your level. If he loses to some scrub, that's just motivation.
I'm not going to argue this, no one wants to see them come and try to compete in a big event if they are not ready, and It's not going to happen so don't get all excited about it. They are not even officially switched to sc2 yet.

If these announcements don't shatter the earth, and up being something like "MLG is going to have live bands playing during the games", then I expect alot of shit to be thrown their way.
It's actually getting really tiring hearing all of these announcements of announcements and I wish that the effort given to hype it up like this was used just to make the coolest trailer possible. Really, I feel cheated everytime they do this. It's like someone tells me Christmas or my Birthday might be coming or might not be coming to tommorrow. But I should be excited. And they've been telling me this for over a month now. Just tell me already or I'm going to stop caring.Last edit: 2012-04-27 13:14:47 |

To be honest I can't sympathize with this mindset anymore. We had a couple things that everyone got so incredibly hyped for, and it backfired. If nothing else this should just mean take all this type of thing with a grain of salt: be curious, be excited, but don't let yourself get so invested you wind up disapointed at something that would otherwise be a great thing. Enjoy the speculation, be excited, not invested.

| Flash isn't going to throw an easy OSL win to compete in a SC2 tourny. But I think Bisu and other BW pros might go to MLG to compete. They have a month to train, right? |

Which bw pros will be at anaheim? Will they be actually playing in the tournament or just making an appearance for show? If they are playing in the tournament, will you give them a direct pool seed, such as last year with gsl and expand pools to 20 players?Last edit: 2012-04-27 13:19:51 |

mlg anaheim is june 8-10? Considering ro24 of osl ends 4/29 and ro16 -> finals is played pretty consistently over 1 to 1.5 months timespan (jinair osl ro16 started 7/13 and last semifinal was 9/9. I included semifinal date of 9/9 instead of the finals date 9/17 because there was a week break or so in august) that seems a little early for the high level brood war pros to go (anticipating osl to be running during the time, and teams may want their players to help practice).
I highly doubt the very top top bw pros that are in the OSL would commit to june 8-10 since that should be primetime OSL.
Not to mention that would be primetime proleague, and I would be skeptical of a MLG/Kespa agreement before anything actually happened.
Now blizzard did have players go to blizzcon (fantasy, jangbi, bisu, jaedong) just for the experience so it's possible they are just invited to play hots or something (I don't know if hots is in mlg anaheim, but following posts in the thread).Last edit: 2012-04-27 13:25:31 |

Who's coming? Will the prize pool be bigger? Your thoughts on BW switching to SC2 MLG's expansion plans - where will be seeing them now that they are partnered with CBSi? And what is the smoke monster? |
