Viper turned on hax after g1. But really in all games their economy was really close. 1 bad move and it was done. Score may not reflect that.

Yeah i think when g3 there was this bug patrol nicov must have been upset and then he couldnt control his emotions and got out of the game. But nicov is very closed to viper lvl, Pretty sure if he works on his emotions he is even slighty better than viper.
In terms of skills they are kinda similar.
G1 was also amazing from nicov, viper had a arena map and nicov played it so perfectly being very aggressive,
gg both.

Hope the next UserPatch will fix patrols once and for all

Nicov played amazing game 1, thought it would be a very closed series. Sadly no.
Viper takes advantage with the variety of maps, specially in water ones.

the patrol bug really kills nicov he had small to large leads in all 3 land maps, but after the patrol bug in g3 blew his lead he wasn't focused. he had a big lead in g5 even at the end when he gg'd, he could have let viper go to town with kts for another 30s and still been ahead in eco

Viper was aiming for Fi+trebs judging by the way his resources looked like on the stream, pretty hard for a meso civ to counter that, esp with 3 tiles gold left and no access to any other gold.
Nicov had a eco lead though, would have been fun to see how he would have countered that.

Yes, that patrol bug is fixed in UP 1.5.

Still, Nicov should have stayed in. He had a chance to win it. And if he wins, Liereyy needed to win Mbl 4:1 to throw Nicov out.
So now Liereyy just needs to win this last set vs Mbl, which is not that unlikely given his last results

Ah, good call, totally missed that. when I saw the low eco and aggression I thought it was cause Viper was trying to do serious damage, not buy time for FI. That's why you pros are around :lol:

This is not true at all! In g3 Nicov was 2 vils behind and had less arch and scouts. If you watch the game closely you will see that Viper was ahead in both economy and army, plus he had more secured map.

G5 looks like Nicov was in control, but if you understand the game you would know that Viper would most likely win that game. Viper was about to click imperial and he had forward castle on Nicov and Nicov would lose his castle since he was way far from clicking up. With his castle gone he would have no defence vs spanish.

Try give Viper some creeds instead. I dont care about anyone's emotion when you lose 1-4. Patrol is just as much bugged for Viper as it is for Nicov, difference is that if something happens Viper (bugg or not) he try to readept instead of start to type and crying while playing.

If viper was 2 vills ahead in g3 it's only because nicov cliked 1min before viper.... actually without that patrol bug nicov was ahead in eco macro and uptime. But who knows what would happen.

Thats so idiotic, this whole topic is only about how Nicov would´ve won if there wasnt this cheat and if he would keep on playing, then someone actually looks and the games and says, hey maybe Nicov, current top 5 player, was maybe right, and maybe he knew better than any of you if he could win or not...
and you call him fanboy etc... :-D
