			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another <span class="caps">MLG </span>event played out over the weekend.  By all accounts a fantastic tournament and huge grats to Realz&#8217; SK-US team for pulling off a win.  I caught a few of the Saturday matches (including the <span class="caps">RLS </span>mirror<sup class="footnote"><a href="#fn1">1</a></sup> between EG and fnatic, pretty interesting even if both teams played kinda flat) but I&#8217;m eagerly awaiting the VoDs being posted so I can see the whole thing.  Vhell is still an awesome commentator.</p>

<p>There&#8217;s coverage of the various days all over the place including Gameriot (<a href="http://wowriot.gameriot.com/blogs/World-of-Ming/MLG-Columbus-Friday-Night-Ensidias-Arrogance-Cost-Them-The-Opening-Round">Friday</a>, <a href="http://wowriot.gameriot.com/blogs/World-of-Ming/MLG-Live-Blogging-Saturday-Can-Ensidia-Bounce-Back-From-Underdog-To-Favorite-Emazing-Is-For-Real">Saturday</a>, <a href="http://wowriot.gameriot.com/blogs/World-of-Ming/MLG-Final-Day-Live-Coverage">Sunday</a>), Gotfrag (<a href="http://www.gotfrag.com/wow/story/44241/">Saturday</a>, <a href="http://www.gotfrag.com/wow/story/44251/">Sunday</a>) and WowInsider (<a href="http://www.wow.com/2009/06/06/mlg-columbus-day-two-concludes/">Saturday</a>).  As usual, Radikal has <a href="http://www.radikalnoise.com/2009/06/mlg-weekend-wrap.html">some entertaining opinions</a>.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m not sure you can take anything meaningful from the results regarding class balance since it&#8217;s a really tiny sample size.  Still: <strong>buff paladins</strong>.  Payce is a total beast and their team did do pretty well, but I don&#8217;t want to have to play some horrible <span class="caps">PHD </span>team to be successful.  It&#8217;s worse than cleave, really.</p>

<p>Unrelated: is Paladin/DK supposed to beat Shaman/Ret?  That matchup makes me rage more than Rogue/Shaman vs Warrior/Druid.</p>

<p class="footnote" id="fn1"><sup>1</sup>  I&#8217;ve decided my favourite <span class="caps">RLS </span>mirror strat is go on the rogue, because then instead of the game being decided based on which rogue can kill a warlock faster, it&#8217;s mostly decided by how well your shaman can lock down (see what I did there) an opposing warlock and avoid CC as well as how quick your bloodlusted warlock can backdraft chaos bolt somebody into oblivion.  And my shaman/warlock will crap all over yours :]</p>]]></content:encoded>
