MLG Spring Arena 2[Day 2]

GSL only lasts more than 3 days because they make it so;
They make the rounds in different weeks but they could just as well make it in the same day, and don't forget that the players that play in gsl live in Korea, Mlg had to gather all the players which is expensive.

Are you seriously implying that this spring arena has anywhere near the amount of content that an entire GSL season has? Last time i checked Code S, Code A, U&D and GSTL is ALOT more than a weekend tournament that starts with a bo3 bracket without groupstage. And dont even get mer started on the level of play either. Not trying to be a bitch about it, but no one in their right mind would call 20$ for spring arena a good deal compared to GSL. Just sayin'.

Rooting for Dream.

I pledge myself to conquer all the foes who stand before the mighty gift bestowed in my unworthy hand

The first matches of the day will be free.

Thank you.

He qualified in the NA qualifiers, which was filled with Koreans for some reason. In fact he was the only non-Korean player to qualify from the NA qualifiers...

I'm not sure why MLG let so many Koreans compete in the NA qualifiers, it ruined them in my opinion. The EU qualifiers had no Koreans, and we had some lower pro EU players qualify which is pretty cool, and give more people a chance to break into the scene.

I'd be surprised if the fellow koreans haven't told dream to cheese idra in the first game, put him on tilt etc

Yeah it was well done by IdrA to qualify, but his play after qualifying is :|

Goody up 125 supply vs MMA's 100.

MMA crushes the attack and moves out on the map.

Goody defends the counter push.

You know what, that really upsets me. Instead of playing IdrA in a straight up game, Socke used all ins to put him on tilt and such to knock him off his game. I know its all apart of the mental side, but its still kinda wrong.
