Reason #345903 why UCSD Owns?We just reached 100 members on Facebook!
[image loading]


Aside from the fact that UCSD has the most baller pedigree of any team in the CSL (2nd place Season 2, 2nd place in CSL Individual tourney, 1st place Season 3... not to mention the coolest coordinator in the history of coordinators), here's why we own the CSL:

To introduce SC2 to the team, I decided to host an officially unofficial SC2 tournament "Testing the Waters," we had approximately 32 participants in the event, after the group stages we arrived at the Quarter Finals. On top of that, I decided to organize a pre-season meet up at our local watering hole, Joe's Pizza.

The turnout was great - 27 of us showed up. I arrived at the meet up on campus to see a big circle of people already there. At that point I knew it was going to be a good year! We also arranged to have the Semi Finals and Finals of the tournament played LAN-style at Joe's.

Here's the bracket from the quarter finals onward:

Pfft. Who needs gateways anyway.

That is an impressive turnout though.
Nothing worth having comes easy.

Wow. The second-best player at UCSD forgets his gateway? This season looks like it should be a piece of cake then!

PS - we have the coolest logo in the CSL. Better than anything coming out of the Xeris school of design.

Haha I played cheese a few times awhile back on the ladder, and he certainly lives up to his name.

Game 1, I took him out with a hellion drop rush so nothing interesting happened.
Game 2 on LT, he went 3 gate proxied void ray allin and just barely managed to break me.
Game 3 on scrap station, he went 4 warp gate allin with a proxy pylon under the side of my main, allowing him to warp zealots behind my wall O_O

By the way, you kids are getting crushed by Michigan this year. Hope you're looking forward to it.
