I guess it's worth noting that it's live NOW.

AAK · Aug 10, 2012

Cool, thanks for making the thread.

I thought PL couldn't make it due to his flight or something

KingItachi · Aug 10, 2012

Hope Brady gets to gf.

It seems like MLG got him a new flight but it had issues or something. Going by his twitter it seems he got on some sort of plane at least.

And seconds later she's destroying him....lol

KingItachi · Aug 10, 2012

Dat perfect.

Doomshine · Aug 10, 2012

I wonder what Kayane will do if France bans Viola. They've been discussing it.

AAK · Aug 10, 2012

Is she really that broken? There wasn't a single Viola in Top 8 for EVO. Or was some new tactics discovered?

lol really? Is she really that good that she deserves a ban?

SC community hasn't changed at all haha.

Doomshine · Aug 10, 2012

I honestly haven't been following the new discoveries for Viola, but apparently she has some really ridiculous combos.

EDIT: from 8wayrun:

They're considering 3 options: Complete ban, banning certain combos (such as B+K BE → 6B+K → 66A → B+K BE loops), or not banning her at all. Currently the general favor is to ban her, and is being backed by players like Malek and Akire.

AAK · Aug 10, 2012

Great Match b/w Link vs Kayane.

Since I never played any SC since SCII, how bad is Viola compared to SCIV Hilde?

Seems like it actually takes some effort to do the Viola stuff. Both Kayane and LP have dropped the newer combos.

SCIV Hilde had a guaranteed RO combo. Viola has to earn her wins.

Doomshine · Aug 10, 2012

The character selection is so weird for this tournament.

AAK · Aug 10, 2012

Is Keev out?

I...think so? Not sure how they're doing this but losing 2 matches can't be good.

The match was amazing though, clutch as fuck JGs and GIs by SomethingUnique

Hex · Aug 10, 2012

Ouch.

AAK · Aug 11, 2012

Real talk, Tom Brady is hands down the best commentator for their respective game out of anyone in the FGC, period.

KingItachi · Aug 11, 2012

MLG did ok looking forward to the next MLG.
