Seriously, starting with mid march to mid april, this has to be the best time for SC2, here's just a few of what has transpired, and will transpire.


BTW SPOILERS INCOMING.


GSL Season 5 ro8 +
ST_July vs oGsMC
Although July didn't show his best in the Finals, he sure blew us away vs Nada and his ro4 opponent. The finals were something I was really excited about, it got a little too one sided. Definitely though I was most hyped for these finals, the experience may have been alright.

GSTL Season 2
SlayerS vs IM
Need I say more? Hype + living up to it + cattle bruisers + defeating a legend.

GSL World Tournament
I mean, Dimaga, whitera, and morrow vs the GSLs best, along with the current foreigners that are already there? and a TEAM BATTLE.... Team battles have been by far the most exciting because the drama adds. Now picture the best 8 koreans vs some of the best foreigners. (Note: It's hard to say who is the top 8 foreigners because there isn't a consistent league that all the foreigners play in, but I would say a lot of the people in the world 8 are definitely some of the best SC2 players.)
The world championship will also be amazing

MLG Dallas
IdrA returns... is he gonna crown himself as best Foreigner as he did in DC, or will another player take him by surprise. Though it can't be Jinro (because of the world championship), there is plenty of other players he should worry about, most of all is Tyler.

NASL.
Supposed to start in April, so it' coming soon. As players continue to be announced one can only expect the hype to rise and rise. I have faith that it won't dissapoint.

ANNNNNDD.......The best for last

TSL
The TSL has just been amazing, in terms of production quality, games, and professionalism. Even the dramatic way Boxer one game 1 was just a fun experience in itself, it also gave way to show how awesome the staff and their decisions are. Not to mention ridiculous upsets that transpired on only two days. "WELCOME TO THE FOREIGN SCENE.", Though its possible that things are different in the LAN environment (like gsl) and results would differ, it doesn't change the fact how exciting the games are and it will hopefully bridge the gap between foreigners and Koreans. It's not as bad as MyM Cloud said in the NASL Foreign thread. I can only imagine the Finals of the TSL, 100,000 viewers anyone? It's a possibility.

Personally I'm most excited about the TSL and the world championship team match, korea vs world. Hopefully it's on an epic level past Slayers vs IM

LAN environment? I don't believe GSL has LAN, otherwise people wouldn't be making fun at the last GSTL where the games were crashing.

Do you even know what he means by LAN Environment?

By LAN he means Offline tournament.

The thing is, that term isn't literal anymore, since there is no lan feature for SC2. GSL is played online., but on location.

But for reals, this is the biggest couple weeks I've seen in starcraft 2, and it lands right on my next Ochem test xD.

Happy days....I kinda just wish they did nothing but GSTL now though over at GOM.

Lol thanks for the one star rating. LAN environment doesn't necessarily mean it's actually using LAN. It's about proximity

LAN may refer to:
  • Local area network, a computer network covering a small local area, such as a home or office
  • LAN party, social happening on a local area network

I think it's pretty funny that SC2 not having LAN has caused people to try and change the definition of LAN. It may not actually be a LAN party but what else are you going to call it?

Well. If anything I said environment, and that basically the fact that the players are very near each other in their own booth. Plus, that assertion isn't the point of the blog it's mainly the fact that there is so much going on soon that there's a lot to be excited about
