I'm going to turn it off soon. Like I was saying earlier, I can have it set up to stream the games later (before I go to bed), but I won't be listed on the sidebar.
Urrrrgh really? I was really hyped for this since I can only watch games that start relatively early (compared to the norm). And I love ACE games too =/
Edit: We should like totally fake the entire live reporting.
Yellow vs Baby! OMG!!!!
Yellow is yellow zerg at 5'o clock, Baby the blue terran at 7'o clock. Oh shi Yellow 4 pool, Baby scouting the wrong way!
Zerglings arrive and only one marine out. This looks pretty bad, wall-in attempt intercepted. LOL Marine surround. This is so over.
Kind of weird the way the scheduling is done. The 13:00 games are obviously bad because that's when a large part of their fanbase is in school, but it seems like the later games would also be a bad idea schedule wise just because you don't want to compete with the SC2 viewers. Is there a particular reason they don't start their games at around 17:00 when, I'd imagine, most kids are off from school? Is it even harder to compete against certain primetime shows on other channels?
I'll be streaming starting this at 21:30 KST, approximately when MBC vs KT ends. Even if it ends earlier, the scheduler is set for then, no negotiations.
haha, i'm hoping for that, with the exeption of the first match needs to be switched for MY FPL. I have a soft spot in my heart for ACE, but I traded for fox this week so that I could get lots of points when they curb-stomp KT and ACE. Will be trading them again at the start of next week.
Much moving out with his first three carriers, hitting baby's expo, carriers move away to meet up with three more carriers.
More carriers in the making, templar archive warping in.
Baby moving his large force into the center of the map, zealots/dragoons move in, zealots all go down, what's left of the dragoons back off carriers retreat also
More goliaths coming in to back up those tanks, tanks bust through the pylon wall, meanwhile Baby has tanks hitting another nexus. DTs are out to kill some goliaths but the nexus goes down before the dts can do much damage. Tanks snipe the other nexus. Much only has two functioning bases.
Carriers being overpowered by goliaths. Gates go down to tank fire. Carriers are also been blown out of the sky.
Yellow not in yellow but in orange at 1, Midas in white spawning at 11 Midas building his rax first at his nat Yellow's overlord scouting in the right direction Hatch first for yellow, scouting scv arrives just as the pool goes down.
Second marine out, snipes the overlord, Yellow slightly shocked, drones pulled to take out the scvs at the nat building a bunker, bunker sits half finished. One drone down as they try to snipe the marines but Midas is microing well, bunker finishes and marines enter, it's too far away from the hatch. second bunker being built now, marine en route. zerglings out and do a run by
Zerglings take out the marines at Midas's nat, bunker going up. Bunker finishes and the zerglings back away. Meanwhile at Yellow's nat, the hatch is in deep red, zerglings surround the bunker and take out the bunker and the units, hatch is safe.
Zerglings on the counter attack. Midas narrowing his nat entrance with a supply. Zerglings sit patiently outside. More zerglings being made. Midas should be careful
Midas starting his CC, Zerglings move in pass the scvs, bunker surround, bunker down, scvs pulled, lings do a run by into the main where they attack scvs and a lone Marine
More lings made, Yellow going to lair tech. scvs fighting zerglings, more lings running into the nat, unfinished cc being attacked, scvs guarding the ramp, a few of them fall. Rax is lifted
Midas starting his acadamy. Yellow adding another hatch. Lair is finished
Zerglings hammering away at a supply depot in the main, it goes down, at least one full control group of lings inside the main attacking several buildings. Zerglings attacking the gas now. Midas is microing his marines hard.
Spire is half way done. Midas just starting his ebay, Spire is finished. Midas with only a handful of marines.
Mutas pop, midas with some marines and one med, ebay almost finished.
Yellow does his muta dance around the marines. Midas picks off an scv building another rax. Midas picks off another marine, one med, another marine. Midas's forces are being chipped away, they retreat to the safety of a bunker in the main. More mutas joining in, they're targeting the rax
Mutas killing marines left and right now Yellow has this game for sure
three terrans in a row, this is why fox has the fewest fans . At least we has all three matchups for terran, but somehow I wouln't be surprised if major came out next
Completely missed the opening because my computer decided to reset itself. Both players have taken their nats. Both adding two factories (total of three)
FBH has no machine shop, Mind does. Small vulture battle outside minds nat, it's kind of back and forth atm. Mind taking the battle eliminating all of FBH's vultures.
Both sides seige up and there's a small battle, FBH coming out on top, he's moving to the center of the map where he's met with vultures. Mines take out some of FBH's tanks. They're both contesting for the middle.
FBH expanding to 9, Mind expanding to his min only at 12.5? Mind rebuilding his rax, he also sends vults to scout 9 and take out the scv before it finishes the CC
FBH making some wraiths now. He has two out on the field. Mind getting his own starport
vulture drop at fbh's nat (and main?) doing a lot more damage than it should
wtf - FBH's vultures leave his main before finishing mind's lat vult dropped there? his wraiths chase away mind's cloaked wraiths which just finished off one of his tanks
mind with a lot more forces attacking the few remaining tanks of fbh's early "contain"
FBH adding a base at 7.5? he's also moving a small attack force towards 12 mind moving a dropship and a few ground forces to try to defend - lsoing some scvs though
Mind loses his expo at 3, meanwhile FBH advances on 12 where mind has barely any units to defend that area. Dropship arrives for mind and drops two vults and one tank. It's not going to be enough to stop this attack though. More units arrive at 12 for mind to back up his initial force.
FBH's wraiths arrive and start attacking tanks. 12 still mining though, Mind rebuilding an ebay at 12
fbh's 2 wraiths picking away at the defending tanks at 12 maybe a turning point
mind lets out a breath he has to rebuild his ebay before he can add turrets - fbh moving a bunch of tanks slowly across the middle of the map - drops mind's new cc at 3
mind lets out ANOTHER breath clearly of frustration this time
Mind loses his CC at 12, and goliaths attacking his floating CC at 3!
Mind reclaiming 3, most of his units are sitting tight at 12 though.
CC relanding at 12 to resume mining. FBH with the larger amount of dropships drop 3, forcing yet another lift. This time Mind brings his troops and wipes out FBH's drop units.
FBH has the left side of the map, Mind does not have as many expos. Mind spots the nuke silo with his vults
First ghost is out waiting at the rax
FBH taking the 4 o'clock expo, Mind still has a lot of tanks sitting at 12 Mind just moving his dropships around. He's building a CC at 3 in preparation of taking another expo
Mind removes whatever buildings were at 4 o clock, FBH making a lot of starports, he has the eco for it I guess. NUKE LAUNCHED Nuke falls and hits cc and some tanks, he also loses some scvs. Mind purses his lips together
More goliaths show up and the wraiths back off. Mind making his move again, advancing towards 7.
FBH seiges up two tanks on the higher ground and takes out some units before they die. FBH running his scvs as goliaths hit 8. Tanks seige up at begin attacking FBH's cc at 8
Meanwhile FBH attacks Mind's 3 expo but Mind is quick to respond with a drop
FBH expos to 5, mind is holding on and slowly making his way back to this game. Cloaked wraiths snipe some goliaths. They're not attacking Mind's CC at 3.5
mind doing some meaningless tank/dropship micro against two of fbh's tank midmap only to have the 2 tanks he saved crushed by fbh's reinforcements towards 3 fbh sieges up
FBH seiges up his tanks in the middle of the map and Mind walks his units right into them.
Mind barely mining from 12. Tanks drop there anyway and the scvs die. Mind with barely any units. He micros them with a DS to take out some of FBH's tanks.
To no avail though as FBH has more and moves to take out Mind's 3, Mind pulls scvs to attack the tanks. Suddenly Vultures appear and lay mines stopping any reinforcements

The truth is that JD absorbs the aura of all the players he lives in close proximity to. That's why he's so good. Once they leave, they're once again free of JD's ability-drain and can show off their full range of abilities! + Show Spoiler +

Oz didn't need a 3rd/4th zerg player, JD + somebody else was enough last season. Killer/Hiya/BackHo/PerfectMan usually managed to get a single extra win and then JD took it in ace.

i guess he can get more confidence playing on ace, he seems more calm and solid

overconfidence? trolling?
No, I guess it was just to allow everyone that retires one last game. They are in a position where they can do that, especially if they are leading 3-1.

lol for the villain he sure plays his part well 6 pooling on the last televised game of cloud on ace after he didnt play for 9 month!!! hmmm all we need now is a white cat sitting in his laps lol
Shine used his OL to spot the mineral count without showing his OL to cloud's workers and cloud failed his scout - wtf he saw the creep, why did he continue to scout north to 12?

I realize that the match was on the line and everything but Shine finds a way to play without dignity in every single game. It's just tiresome.
scv sees the pylon between 9.5 and 10.5, dies at pure's nat one ranged goon shooting at the bunker outside ruby's nat 1 tank out 3 scvs repairing siege done!

Why would you recommend a game with Shine in it?
Because he's at least a top 4 zerg in progaming right now?
Haha, good one. I've actually been watching his games, though.
Really? Because so have I. Which one of his 10 wins in a row did you feel was "without dignity", as you so eloquently said? His sweep vs Bisu?
Yeah, let's not. Because I'm going to say "all of them" and you're going to scrunch up your face and ask for an explanation. It's not worth it.
yeah yeah hydra bust cheesing noob so bad lolol
lol, Flash used to be a "cheesy noob" too. I actually like that guy. Remember, the point of game is to win. -____- He is one of the few Zergs that actually do so. =/

Flash was a "cheesing fucking noob". So was Boxer and Nal_Ra. Yellow and July both had no late game. People just hate on Shine for no reason - I get that it's his last game and he deserves a better sendoff, but Cloud played (literally) like a blind idiot that game.

2 goliath 1 tank drop at 12.5 - 2 defending zealots destroyed - many more zealots responding now and the dropship picks up and leaves
ruby moving out with tank/goliath and a few vultures now - across the middle of the map where's he trying to go? goons linger to pick off the vessel before pulling back
Looks like carriers were the big lose button today. In both games we saw a carrier attack get paired with a big overcommit with ground forces. Losing all bases to your carrier placement ftl.

Much could have won with his carriers if he didn't have his entire zealot force trapped behind his goons. By the time his zealots broke through a lot of his goons were already dead T_T

I was talking about Stats vs Sea. I wouldn't have bothered with spoilers in the LR thread for this match. EDIT: Wow. Didn't see the much game, but that's actually the same thing that happened to Stats. Exact same... Uncanny.

Just saw a game in a highlight on the XsebT's Channel with a TvZ where the T made a lot of wraiths, sniping everything, anyone knows what game is that ?

I. Love.This.Game. I just back from my work, and what i see? Another win for ace! Yes! I WANT MOOOOAAAAR!!! And i read and what? FBH WON WITH A NUKE? Give me vod now!!!
Always happy when ACE wins. I was completely shocked that Ruby won a TvP though, and on top of that, the protoss involved was actually a known player. I'll definitely need to look for that replay.
I remember pple here making fun of Ggaemo when he first applied for ACE, questioning whether he's even good enough for ACE etc. He's proven everyone wrong. Go Ggaemo!
nikon, please to make a more concise lr post? so many spoiler tags, and spoiler tags within spoiler tags, and needlessly repeating information ... so confusing! thanks still.

Random stats: Ruby was 2-0 against Protoss in Proleague. Pure was 1-2 against Terran in Proleague. Benzene was an 0-4 PvT map.
All in all, it's actually not that surprising, though I have no idea why Pure is so bad at vs Terran.
Extra stat: ACE moves up to 9th in Proleague, by virtue of a 5-game lead over KT (both have 4-9 match records).
Those who doubted ACE, shame on you. They're on fire ever since the end of last season and sometimes this season. They're way better than last season, that's for sure.
