    They're pretty bad against vZ also, since there's no production buildings to throttle the amount of AA zerg can make to react. Plus the issue of upgrades in vZ. You can skip ground upgrades for you mech in TvT, but you can't really do that in TvZ with your main army without getting absolutely crushed.

    *Idra sends his broodlord/corruptor army against a thor/viking/raven composition that is specifically designed to hard-counter broodlords*
    *He bunches up his broodlords to make sure the Hunter Seeker Missiles and Thor shots do massive damage*
    *He watches all his broodlords die within 10 seconds*

    Idra: "this game is so broken"

    Yup. IdrA's on a downswing, unfortunately.

    Did Idra just ragequit because his opponent made a bunch of Phoenixs? I get that he is leaps and bounds better than me, but why drop so quickly? Was he thinking it was going to be a lift micro, kills Queens, kills drones, ground army rolls him ending?

    Well, with Idra tilting and Huk tilting, are there any other hopes for NA?

    He spent all his gas/eco getting to mutas on 2 base, with no progress towards a 3rd. Obviously an early gg and who knows what can happen, but with that many phoenix and zero anti air, he's basically screwed. That was enough phoenix to lift hydras/infestors/queens at the amounts he would be able to build them after going 2 base muta.

    huk is losing games but is he tilted like idra?

    well, no one really tilts like idra...

    I'd say jinro's tilted from things I've seen on his stream. not sure who else but I haven't seen much from huk except that he lost games.

    I've been getting several PMs about this, so I'll make a specific announcement. You can report results to me (full map count please!) in the thread @ me, or by PM. Replays need to be posted so as to be available to everyone in the league. Actually, it occurs to me that people have talked about doing webspace, etc, for the league; a place to have all the links to the relevant replays would be very nice.

    Jinro's about as relevant as Haypro at the moment. Tyler even with the *gasp* name change still is worse than incontrol. Hero is a baller but foreign. Sheth? He's an underdog but I don't see big things coming from him (har har). Isn't that all NA has teamwise? EG and Liquid? Which by the way, EG and Liquid I think are facing off in the IPTL sometime this week, so that should be a fun jimmy v timmy match. ;-)

    Speaking of replays, here are the replays of the games Mvrck and I played:

    code a as well I think has JYP lined up against... maybe hero? iirc there's a liquid vs. eg game coming up.

    anyway, they're all about equally as relevant as far as I'm concerned (everyone you listed). no one you listed is a threat to win any tourney. I was more addressing the idea of 'tilting' vs just losing games for any given reason. huk falling out of gsl isn't the same as falling out of gsl while complaining about balance, throwing a show match while complaining about balance, and playing like shit on your stream while complaining about balance.

    I mentioned jinro because I've seen him play not-too-well on stream but also do a lot of complaining. tilting = negative head space to me.

    not that this is a big deal by any means I just want to explain what I was getting at.

    Man, the poster of the replays is total spoiler city. As in, it's generally the winners that post, right?

    Real spoiler for people who haven't been noticing Dhal's posts.
    I would expect "I lost to Tanner because of XYZ" to be a somewhat bigger spoiler, though.

    I think the biggest giveaway on that match is the pig flying outside

    Yeah, actually, it has been something like 6 months since Dhal lost a ZvP CSL-related series, I'm pretty sure.

    I hate when you send in a Warp Prism for a DT drop, and it makes that beep at you saying you're at 200/200. Especially embarrassing if you've already transformed the prism.

    If we really wanted to solve the whole "Replay poster spoiler" problem, we could just have everyone send their replays to invictus and have him make the post.

    We are excited to reveal that second player that will be competing in the invitational is Tyler "LiquidNonY" Wasieleski!

    "As a resident of the Lone Star State, it is my sacred duty and privilege to defend this land. Ain't no foreigner gonna come to Texas and show me up. There can be only one victor in the Lone Star Clash and you can bet the ranch it's gonna be me." - Tyler "NonY" Wasieleski

    I enjoyed reading that statement from Tyler, and I just hope he crushes through the competition.

    It was funny imagining him with a Texan accent since he doesn't have one at all.
