I'm totally late on this - but I was lucky enough to be at the MSL prelims doing my photography stuff when they also did the CS between Lunatic-hai and eSTRO - it was my first FPS event (I've been dying to go to one for months.) and I sat in the audience for the first time since April 2008.

I couldn't help taking a few photos though; It was a fun series of games aside from 30 minutes of boredom during a server problem and almost an hour of setbacks due to some questions about the legitimacy of Lunatic-hai's play. I definitely want to cover it again as soon as possible.

It was regarding the Lunatic-Hai team using flash bangs/bombs and exploiting a bug in the map as far as I'm aware. It took forever to clear up -_-; I was so bored, but the remaining matches made up for the wait.

taping: ogn attached mics to enemy (lunatic) and solo (estro) to record what they were saying on the actual in-game mic

controversy: oh, silent planting/flash bug is gay.
i'm happy that lunatic still won though.

what day is it on? because i know it isn't live on thursday nights.

I was sad for eSTRO, but it was still awesome to get to see two teams like that going at it. I can't wait to see more. The match I went to was on during the MSL prelims - so I think it was a Thursday night - but I know it's usually Sudden Attack Master League played at Yongsan on a Thursday. Finding out the schedules is harder than for SC so I'm going to keep track of it by asking my co-worker - he is the eSTRO team's manager

Do the CS team practice in the same house as the Starcraft team? Or maybe it isn't built up in the same way at all. :o

I actually asked their manager this - they have their own separate apartment in Seoul. He said jokingly that they're too loud to be in the same house as the SC players

No, actually it's another co-worker of mine who currently looks after the team. He's a really nice guy though so if you have any questions about the team I can definitely ask him

eSTRO's CS manager is someone else and he can speak English sort of. He can't speak it fluently since he has to think and take his time to talk in English.

I know the guy and his english is fine

He's getting more of a chance to use it with all of us foreigners in the office though ^^.
