yes, yes, yes, I thought I got a heartattack but it was just an orgazm. This demo is good, really good

lol

during watching 10 minutes i thought i downloaded a wrong demo or something ...but when i saw the last 4-5 minutes i saw the best actions on fatal1ty ever! big gg to socrates (i didn't know he could be so strong to beat fatal1ty from the 2:10 and 5 minutes to the end...)

as much as I hate t2 - this is an awesome match and should become a classic...

jesus ./.. t2 is the best map .. no doubt :)

omg

/me gets horny

tried to stall way too early

hm
i feel really sorry for fat on this one
he really played perfect for about 10 minutes, but he was too self-confident as he tried to camp it out for the last 4-5 minutes
he could have had success, but he didnt just run away as he probably have should
instead, he tried to kill soc with RL in the narrow sideways, but he simply couldnt do it because soc always had 100 200 and a very good shaft
too bad, i would have liked it to see fat in korea, but it seems not :(

thx to magician for the demo, also to mr. lemmy de if22 for the others - nice work!

spoiler!

spoiler ?

spoiler = giving away result/info on the game

llama0r|!!!!!!!

uhm, stfu all, i dont care, the results were posted in the news anyways

;)

I was watching this on gtv and got disconnected - with the scores at 11-11. AAAARRRRGGHHHH!!! FUCK YOU 56K MODEM!!!!

Oh yeah and if fat had delayed his spawns he'd had won easily.

that's a n1

That was CLUTCH. Socrates played perfectly for the final 5 minutes. I give it a 9 because it's fat's pov.

Will this influence the price he asks for his 'pro-gaming' lessons?

yes socrates fee now starts at $500

(oh you meant fatality? oOoOoO)

g1 rofl

i think he had some kind of mental meltdown ? ?

Not spawning and hiding so early .. then towards end when he should have .. he spawned right away ... fucking bizarre tbh :))

maybe nerves?

;o]

hes a pro ? ?:) im sure hes been in more nervous positions then that .. but your right

heh tru ;), but still probs nerves

What if fat would have got 4 seconds to finish soctrates in the end? :) Why am I even thinking that. It's the fucking end and there are no 4 seconds :P.

Very unfair win :/

unfair ? ? :) soc worked damn fecking hard for it ... not his fault fat blew it tbh :)

He didn't deserv the win, nor did he work hard for it, fat handed it out to him. soc got pwned in the 1st 10 mins, then Fat must of had a 'blue screen error' in his brain, cause there was no way soc would of been a serious threat, tbh. =)

Yeah you could say the same for soc
he was playing shitty at the start just as fat was playing shitty at the end
thats the game

@ stony this was the first off 2 matches to be played to see who's in the winners or losers bracket for WCG USA . Of the 4 contenders who are playing this final round only one doesnt get to go to korea . Fat still has a change

didnt know that
cool

fat had a nice strat goin, but soc was too strong. fat shouldve started that strat after he got tired, but he didnt.

fat still had energy, which goes to show, be aggressive till the end.

Hhhmm, i just watched the demo and fat started playing defensively with 4 minutes to go and an 8 frag lead. To me that's a good strategy on T2 (if you look at the fazz vs cooller demo that was posted on ESR recently you'll see fazz stalls for 5 minutes with a lesser winning margin) but failing to delay the respawn cost him the game.

For instance at 12:30 minutes he still had a seven frag lead so if he'd delayed the respawn (you were allowed 10 seconds in this tourney i think) every time he died from that point on he would have given socrates only 1:30 minutes to get those seven frags back, which would have been a near impossible task.

Agreed.

I don't understand what was going on in his mind... should have kept going for as long as he could control the map, THEN start running. There was one point exactly where he could have gone for the YA but seemed to say to himself, "Hmmm... I think I'll just run now". Yet another match to go in fat's book of biggest failures.

too much pressure on fat lately... you can't play when gaming is your job and you always have to prove you're l33t

Well, all pros have to prove themselves constantly in any sport/game. Hopefully fat can pull himself together and play like we all know he can =D

Thats to me the hardest skill to master, getting up from the floor and unleashing the fury
after 2-0 on t2 i give up most of the time :(

Yeh whilst i said that fat should've won, socrates did make some great shots to come back. Crucial one was an air-rocket after both had just respawned with scores at 11-6 and a couple of minutes to go.

I cum in my pants :/

dunno why there are so many comments here, this demo was horrible. especially from this POV; fatal1ty played incredibly stupid. and there was no 'awesome' aim or anything like that, either. fatal1ty screwed up worse than HORWINKLE, does that make this a good demo or something?

socrates did play well for the whole game, and fata just sucked at playing defensive.

Hm, don't know what happened there, maybe just a miscalculation on fat's side. But being a book-keeper of a winning-margin was never a good policy IMHO

D00d, how can you just say "fatal1ty played incredibly stupid"? He's one of the smartest players I've ever watched, and I think he knew exactly what he was doing. Well, maybe he didn't know that EXACTLY ;p (miscalculation!). Oh, and he had a really unlucky spawn about 14 min!

Also, his aim was VERY impressive for me, especially the shaft. Socrates had nice RL and quite often fatal1ty was flying in the air, but he was always able to hold the crosshair right between Soc's eyes.

Of course Socrates played very very good, but IMO fatal1ty should have won this match.

Well but he lost. So his "exact" tactic wasn`t that exact. Since his 10th frag he somehow played as if he did not want to got to korea. Pherhaps his sponsors told him that they will not pay his journey ? and when you watch his moving, you can easily see that he got fuckin nervous at the end ..

I agree that fat should definitely have won this match, but he really messed up his strategy at the end of the game and he knows it. He didn't even bother saying "GG" at the end. I can just imagine him wanting to scream.

clearly i am touching myself again :/

Any demo from Socrates pov?

This demo proves that you can't give a pro even a sniff of victory!

Fat must have made some mistakes, socrates took advantage of this..... nuff said!

They both fucked up watch how socrates was playing stupid at the beggining and then fat was at the end
Doesnt mean fat should have won this

I think he intentionally lost this, and I think Makaveli intentionally lost that 28-0 game. not sure why they would, but that's what it looks like.

I agree totally... it looks like there's one point in the match where fatal1ty suddenly says to himself, "I think I'll turn OFF now...", and does...I'd like to see an interview with him to see what he says about this.

I don't see the point in start running when Fat has map control,, bad decision as far as I'm concerned :P

/Tiny

Same bad decision he made against socrates.

socrates demos make me nervous. incredibly nice demo.
