naymlis vs ah! q2rdm2 Feb 2009

True

but I still say that it was poor play for naymlis or perhaps it is just not his map

[haunted]

I can see where both of you are coming from... but does everyone see where naymlis is coming from in this duel? Naymlis doesn't play conservative tournament-style like your life depends on it defense. He's not going to wait for opportunities, he's going to create opportunities.... Even against opponents that aren't that defensive, he will often make them adapt a defensive strategy for the duel. This is because his outlook on a q2 duel is to pressure your opponent, from as many points possible and as fast as possible, into a position that they're not as comfortable in.... because it's more fun and it's the way you SHOULD duel, imo... but bottom line, yes naym was a little sloppy but he was playing his fast-paced game that works even when he's not on. Sometimes he is on.

Also I doubt either player took this game seriously.

I would say that is a good assessment
