OMG I CAN'T WAIT
should be epic, the most bm protoss around against the least bm protoss around
(Z)YellOw<Outsider>(P)Stork
might be a good match too, considering how poorly Stork has been playing lately
|
EffOrt vs. Bisu is definitely going to be the game to watch this week.
|
^ nah. Stork vs YellOw definitely.

Stork is going to roll Yellow.
I'm just curious whether Kal can manage to beat Hoejja and his burrow rush on Destination.

Time to make my trades :D.

HONG JIN HO HWAITING!
Some tough liquibet choices to make this week...hmm...
|
10 matches, 40 games, 21 non-mirror. That's statically different from the expected value (I'm in a Stats class right now), but much better than I would have expected.
SKT1 versus CJ on the 13th is going to be really good.

God's Garden's shaping up to be a zerg map too. Overall, of the 20 lineups, 11 contains 2 zergs. The swarm's taking over the recent maps.

Well they were made for them to take over.

Regardless of map-maker intentions, having to watch gazillion ZvZs on Raid Assault and now Battle Royale sucks. For BR you might as well shrink the map by half because no one touches the outer portion anyway.

Neither do I. But that hasn't prevent the map to dominated by zergs.

Bah, us Zergs have a good map once in a blue moon, just let us have our morsels.
We sat through Rush Hours for all those seasons, you guys can sit through a couple seasons of Battle Royale @_@
|
The Anytime v Backho match has an interesting back story. For those of you who didnt see the Anytime interview, Anytime basically said backho has no game sense and even directed curse words his directions. Right after leaving Oz he publically stated "Backho is trash andsucks at pvp. I raped him 100000 times in practice." So this may be a semi-grudge match cause I doubt Backho enjoyed hearing his former teammate thrash him like that right after he left.
|
I wish they would play fantasy more in the top 3 rather then 4th spot

Huh? Rush Hour was even more imba TvP than TvZ. While there have been tons of TvT maps in the past, it's not like us tosses get any bone thrown our way.
Whenever did we have a proleague map dominated by PvPs?

Here's the excerpt from that interview:

I mean I didn't practice for a couple of months. If there is one matchup I actually care about, it is PvP. In PvP I believe even Stork will have a hard time taking a game from me even if we play right now. Backho and every other lecaf protoss have NEVER taken a game from me. This frustrates me but at the same time makes me happy. -What if you meet Lecaf during proleagues?I would hate to fight jaedong, but if I meet Backho I will beat his ass. I even told him "You better practice if you want to beat me in a live match"

wonder if the torch has finally been passed on to the younger CJ members, no Iris, Much, or Savior for the second week in a row
|
I have a pet theory that Oz's management is kind of fucked up, and Anytime and ForGG were benched and then left because they were getting tons of shit from the coaching staff, who showed favoritism towards Jaedong and Backho.
|
Is there any actual proleague standing somewhere?
|
Seriously this is getting fucked.
There are way too many mirror matches.
Kespa should do something about this, it makes Proleague less exciting. Bring back Winners League or something.
|
Stork vs Sea, I bet no1 is going to cheese in this game!
|
the amount of mirror matches is getting quite ridiculous
|
STX hardly using by.hero makes me sad

ForGG was benched, because he sucks.

Do you know how good that is for zerg? Thats 6 easy gas. Against P you only need 2 sunk/spore lurk sets ups and youre set for the game lol. Against T al you need is the bottom choke and defilers our and you're gonna have 6 gas. Of course its not that simple but it sure does make playing zerg a lot easier when its that easy to take bases.
Also, about the mirrors, this happens every single proleague season..it shouldn't come as a suprise.
They should have winners league format only in my opinion. That was soooo much better for the fans.

Lol.. Almost each team's matchups will have ONE ZvZ.. And Jaedong is only placed for ZvZ..

This is EXACTLY what I thought as soon as I saw the lineups. I don't like their chances vs Khan (no gorush ), but the Hwaseung matchup is definitely winnable.

Disappointed at the distinct lack of manliness in this weeks lineups!
As a consolation, Storm Zerg vs Dino Toss should be helluva match, Yellow hasn't played in a while, and with the success Gorush and Oversky have been having lately, he should be fired up to win his spot back.
Ace fighting!

SKT1 has turned into Lecaf from a few seasons ago. There's no subtlety, just "we're going to ram Bisu/Best/Fantasy/Thezerg down your throat, you're going to know it's coming, and you're going to lose anyway."
Really wish Anytime hadn't had to go do army service Hope he starts doing better with Ace again soon.

They got terrible draws this week - no zergs for Casy to devour, etc. For the Hwaesung game, HiyA's TvT isn't wonderful, but I'm willing to bet Casy's is probably worse, and despite the improvement they've shown lately no one on ACE can take Jaedong. So as sad as it may be, the prediction in the ACE/WeMade LR thread about Jaedong knocking around oldie cripples may turn out mostly right.
On the other hand, I suppose Casy could pull off some crazy BBS cheese so he can use his ridiculous marine micro, and ACE could take it 3-1. Edit: Looking at the match list, Casy <Destination> Hiya. Nice map for Casy to cheese on if he wants to. Guess that improves their draw a little.

YellOw vs Stork is scary T_T

YellOw<Outsider>Stork
THE WAR OF 2nd PLACE

Note that it wasn't actually Casy vs Hiya.
Cloud vs Hiya is the first game of ACE vs OZ.

Sites such as Dailyesports and FiFo do text releases. Nether the less, it is a real disappointment how there have been obvious mistranslations left and right for the past couple of weeks.

I dont blame the translator nor defend him. I was trying to find a reasonable explanation. Maybe fomos post the lineups faster? I dont really know.

Mistakes happen. It's not a big deal, so why get all worked up about it? If someone decides they can do a better job then they should try to translate.

Ya I'm sorry for the mustranslations. Ill double check them after I post. I'm not Korean so I'm not perfect.
|
A little while after the big schedule is posted they add them to the calendar so ill just use the progamizer the next day after my original translation.

Seriously. Yes, mistakes are mistakes but the hard work put into getting these translations out should override any disappointment.
