Introduction to the Team + Week 1 | Week 2

This week we went up against L'Escale. On the HSL site, none of their players had their leagues visible. From what I remember though, Newking was Silver and SquilleX was Gold. I don't remember the others.

Aiden decided to try to stream this week. The quality was really bad, but if you want to watch the VODs, you can find them at www.twitch.tv/averageadeeen/b/302907662. The game times on the VOD are in brackets below.

Also, since you haven't met our coach yet, here is an interview with him! He offered his coaching services to us after reading the first blog.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKh8Hzw3dbU


Without further ado, here are the games!

TvT - WreakingBall (Pink) vs eScNewking (Green) on MLG Xel'Naga Caverns [15:00]
+ Show Spoiler +
Replay: http://drop.sc/75702

WreakingBall spawns in the top right, and eScNewking spawns in the bottom right. Wreakingball opens a standard 12 rax 13 gas, while Newking opts to go for a gas first build. Newking decides to build his second barracks inside Wreakingball's base using his scouting SCV.
[image loading]

Noticing that the scout hid in his base, WreakingBall rallies his first marine to go check out what it's up to, shutting down the proxy.
[image loading]

WreakingBall transitions into Blue Flame Hellions as he gets his starport up, while Newking goes into a 3 rax build, still not using any of his gas.
[image loading]
[image loading]

Both players decide to move into Siege Tank production at almost the same time.
[image loading]

WreakingBall moves out and lays siege to Newking's base, using his Raven and Vikings to spot the high ground.
[image loading]

WreakingBall's Blue Flame Hellions are able to make their way into the main. Lacking an army, Newking pulls all his SCVs to try to hold the push, while making cloaked banshees.
[image loading]
[image loading]

Newking loses all his SCVs, and is forced to leave the game. The cloaked banshees would not have done much, with a raven and vikings flying around.
[image loading]

WreakingBall had no comments.


TvZ - Erzz (Green) vs eScSquilleX (Yellow) on MLG Metalopolis [27:50]
+ Show Spoiler +
Replay: http://drop.sc/75701

Erzz spawns in the North while SquilleX spawns in the East, making it close air positions. Erzz spots the scout overlord with his SCV, so both players are aware of this. Erzz chooses to open with a reactor hellion expand, while SquilleX goes 14 hatch 14 pool.
[image loading]
[image loading]

SquilleX quickly tries to expand to the gold.
[image loading]

Upon getting 4 tanks, Erzz moves out. When he takes the tower, he spots the gold base. Erzz takes out the gold, and SquilleX is confused. Erzz tries to explain as he moves into SquilleX's natural.
[image loading]
[image loading]
[image loading]

Erzz sieges outside of SquilleX's natural, and Squillex attacks the force from both sides with his zerglings, killing two tanks and some marines.
[image loading]

SquilleX cleans up the push with Zerglings from the back and banelings from the front.
[image loading]

Some of SquilleX's drones are sad to see Erzz's marines go, so decide to follow them home.
[image loading]

The Terrans give the drones a warm welcome.
[image loading]

Erzz pushes out again. This time, SquilleX has some mutalisks.
[image loading]

SquilleX manages to get some nice banelings hits, but Erzz still has enough forces to destroy the natural expansion of SquilleX.
[image loading]
[image loading]

Erzz moves up into SquilleX's main. SquilleX's banelings kill most of the marines, but two are still left to spot the high ground.
[image loading]
[image loading]

With no units and his main under siege, SquilleX leaves the game.
[image loading]

Erzz's comments on the game: "Glad I could pull off a win for my team, but I'm still terrible. Floated so many resources."


TZvZT - AveragePanda (Yellow) and AverageFeds (Purple) vs MegaKingMars (Blue) and eScNoGGSkill (Playing on eScSquilleX's account) (Orange) on Khaydarin Depths [1:13:30]
+ Show Spoiler +
Replay: http://drop.sc/75696

Note: You may have noticed that NoGGSkill is using SquilleX's account. NoGGSkill was having problems with logging into his account, so I told them it would be okay if he played on one of his team mate's account. eSc talked to the admin and were allowed to do such, and SquilleX let him on.

The Average team spawned in the top right, while eSc's team spawned in the bottom left. The two Terran players go for standard openings. MegaKingMars went for an 8 pool, while AverageFeds did a gas pool opening.
[image loading]

MegaKingMars sends his first 6 zerglings to AverageFeds's base. AverageFeds defends with his drones...
[image loading]

...and doesn't lose anything except mining time.
[image loading]

Meanwhile, NoGGSkill was building bunkers in the main of AverageFeds.
[image loading]

AverageFeds decides to ignore them, and runs his zerglings past...
[image loading]

...and into NoGGSkill's base, since the depot turned out to be down.
[image loading]

NoGGSkill leaves almost instantly.
[image loading]

AverageFeds starts to attack the bunkers, while the Average team starts saying EZ into chat.
[image loading]

MegaKingMars decides to leave shortly after. That other orange building in AverageFeds's main is a barracks.
[image loading]


Rules regarding BM: + Show Spoiler +
BM is fine, as long as the other team does not tell you to stop. Since eSc didn't say anything about it, it is fine for the Average team to be saying EZ. Specific rules:

In-game chat should be limited to pp, ppp, or related (for PAUSING the game) and gg, good game or related (for ENDING the game). Players can ask to remake the game in the first 30 seconds if there are latency issues. Note: This rule is not meant to be strict; however, if a player asks for chat to stop, his request must be obliged. Continuing to chat will result in a set loss.

PROCEDURAL NOTE: To claim a set win, please request politely: "please stop chatting or I am reporting you for a chatting violation," and then do not respond to further provocations by other players. If the other player continues to chat and BM, it would be perfectly acceptable to, at that point, leave the game and send us the unfinished game replay to claim a win.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember, results will stand if you play through the game. If there are problems or issues (lag, chat violations, etc) that call for a regame or forfeit, please pause the game and ask for an HSL admin in IRC or b.net chat. If you play through the game, you CANNOT retroactively request regames or forfeits (unless both teams agree on a regame).

You can read them on the HSL site.


AveragePanda's comments on the game: "We played good. Good APM. Their failed rush let us win, 6 pool EZ" 'It was 8 pool' "EZ"
AverageFeds's comments on the game: "I prefer cheddar cheese. Bitches."

No other games! (anti-spoiler)


That does it for this week. Our next game is January 7th, and it is versus Winchester High School. They have a Master and three diamonds, so we'll have to practice hard over the break to prepare!

Nice post, good to read. It is pretty cool that HSL is doing well, as SC2 can be just as constructive as football or tennis for team building and socially communicating (though, maybe not as good for your health )

If you guys ever need some extra practice partners let me know. Manny (140, Plat)
