    Is MVP really top echelon like DRG or MMA (or even huk?) anymore? Haven't seen him do much recently?
    He's definitely not playing so well recently, but neither has Select or Kiwikaki so I think he'll take his group regardless.

    Whoever it was, his giddyness of getting so far was fun to be a part of.

    If you're ever unsure which one is Haypro, he's the one you just saw lose.

    Tanner if Machine wins that group in that manner I will be willing to pay you to be my personal lottery number consultant and refer to you only as "The Oracle". I will also enjoy watching the craziest group ever.

    Apparently HayprO was using some 3rd party software that enabled additional observer features but also has maphacking and automining functionalities if you enable them.

    So he accidentally left it running during literally one single game, which imprinted the replay with "Hey this guy had software running that may have been used to maphack."

    Haypro is frustrating because he will give a great player a hell of a game and you think, man this guy could be putting it together. Then by law of nature within 2 minutes he will move command 30 mutas over stimmed marines and you'll go back to being less than excited about the guy.

    So I just realized DRG cannot lose his group. He has to play 3 liquid members and as such should be in classic all kill team league mode.

    I'm pretty excited to see how Destiny does at Anaheim.

    He's been beating code S players with some consistency in his Korean ladder games.

    I meant the insinuation that performing that build gives you Plat level skillz. I could do that build in my sleep and I'm only gold. That's what I meant.

    I don't mean to be offensive.

    Doing that build with good mechanics in ~70% of my games got me to diamond when I had no idea what I was doing, to be perfectly honest.

    If you're not in at least platinum your mechanics need work much more than anything else, and doing one decent build over and over helps to build those better than being mediocre at 4 or 5 builds.

    In Nov or December I was silver. Dhal posted the Dhalgate build order and at the time people were still saying you could 4 gate to diamond. I practiced it 5 or 6 times and then started laddering with it. By the end of Jan I was Plat.

    10 pylon
    10 gate
    cb 11th probe
    13 gas
    core @ 100% of gate - gas should be done by now, I usually put 2 in and the core building probe is #3
    16 pylon I usually scout with this probe or gas probe
    stop probe production at 18
    Should have 100 gas when core finishes WG + stalker, CB continuously on WG
    +3 gates once you have the money, use stalker to clear out immediate area and then rally to front
    20 - stalker (second) CB rally to proxy pylon location
    proxy pylon
    warp in 4 stalkers at front ~5:45
    build proxy pylon near ramp for warping up if they FF, warp in 4 zealots at top of ramp if you can

    I used it PvP and PvT

    I love how this new forum saves my half-baked not-posts and embarrasses me every time I come back by reminding me of the dumb thing I almost said last time.
    For serious though, saving your text is a cool feature that will probably save a lot of people a lot of rage over real lost posts.

    evo is a fighting game tournament. it's my first time ever watching, trying to learn enough about these games to spectate... they are easy to watch like starcraft as opposed to most FPS games where you're isolated view-wise from most of what's happening.

    mostly because I like watching/playing mortal kombat and at least this year it's being played.

    Wow I should really get back into SSF4...Street Fighter is a game with amazing depth and excitement (from what I gather). How is the PC version? I have a PS3 fightpad from vanilla SF4, I'd look into it if it's compatible with my computer. That MLG schedule is awesome though.

    I grew up with MK and it's the only fighting game I ever played.

    I love the new one though it's not at the level of other fighting games (from what I'm hearing) but while I can watch kung lao and kitana and sub zero fight at a high level I damn sure am going to.
