Hi guys,
I just wanted you to know about that upcoming Showmatch, Testie.MYM vs kOOlam. Here is the news about it on out site. I interviewed both of them and I think everybody should see that 
Logo: by BaboToss & News by X-MeN-lOki
kOOlam and Testie will be facing off each other in two best of 7 series, one entirely on BGH, and another on several low money maps. The matches will be on regular BGH as opposed to on 6v7, and the low maps will be decided between kOOlam and Testie.
Every starcraft player who has followed the non korean scene, or watched WCG, will be aware of who Testie is. He is undoubtedly one of the best current non korean players, and has the following notable achievements:
2nd place, WCG Canada 2004
Top 16 WCG Grand Final 2004
Longest running KOTH at GG.net
Most wins in a row on WGT (58-0)
Top 8 WCG Grand Final 2006

The interviews can be found on our site. Have fun reading.
Greetings

lol  .
GL Testie, I actually am REALLY looking forward to this BGH stuff..
This is so cool to have BGHers start joining up. Maybe they would be gosu RW'ers~

Lets get it on The replays will surely be hot.

Good to see people trying to make an effort to bring the two communities closer to each other (instead of the usual mindless hatred). Nice initiative.
I'll still be rooting for Testie as the representative of the low community though.

=S ?
why announced separately from the actual TL vs BGHers showmatch? I thought their games were supposed to be part of the larger ordeal instead of being a separate entity. Oh well I suppose a little bit of hype never hurt anyone.
Both players very mannered in their interviews.
Oh, btw I found a typo:
Babo:
What do you think about the upcoming showmatch TLT vs BGHers? Who will win?
TLT --> TL.net
|
Hard to see anything else then 7-0 on normal maps, and I guess Testie can win some of the bgh:s too
But stilI ... I have no idea how good the other guy is.
Go Testie!

Testie probably has the advantage here..
I doubt he'll have much trouble on low money maps, and kOOlam is mainly a 2v2 player apparently, plus it's not the 6v7 version, meaning he has to play against a random player on a map with 8 spawn locations.

This is a great idea. Testie vs kOOlam is a very interesting matchup. Much more interesting, than, for example, testie vs mondie, or really any other non-money vs non-money matchup. The reason it's so fun to read about is because all of TL.net (Z, P, and T players) can get behind testie. Most of the people here are or were competitive SC players. Similarly, with the BGH community, they can all get behind kOOlam.
Personally, though, I'm hoping kOOlam dominates testie on low money.
|
By the way, when is this? Today hopefully?
|
Any other score than 4-0, 4-0 for Testie is unlikely.
|
from what i know, koolam is the boxer of bgh comunity...
im sure this guy has good SC talent, anyone knows how old he is/where from etc?

TL.net vs BGHers and Testie vs kOOlam are really two different entity. Testie vs kOOlam showmatch was planned months ago in BGHers.com News Forge, while TL.net vs BGHers.com was initiated only recently by Manifesto.
Both showmatch will be arranged on the same day. A secret channel will be held for Testie vs kOOlam and only some respected admins from TL.net, BGHers.com, and GG.net will be invited.

The best BGH player on earth couldn't take a C+ PGT rank on his own maps (guy could probably use one hand at that). Entertaining, maybe, but pointless.

. If Koolam is good enough to beat Testie on normal maps (assuming Testie plays his best!) then he ought to be a famous BW player as well.
