Nanashin I love you <3 Canata's valkyrie fleet is sitting idle, while Soo attempts a doom drop, but them proceed to crush through it 86-158 supply Canada favored
Hive is up, ultra cavern also Canada going to go overlord hunting Attempting to get some vultures into 1 oclock main +1 air attacks 1-2 ground both for Canata
Valks get plagued and some fall, not many I believe Canata intercepts another drop, 12 oclock is going to get destroyed by mass vultures 12 oclock hatchery that is 3 oclock is up and running for Canata now
Crackling drop at 6 oclock, doesn't accomplish very much 12 oclock survives because of some nice mine drags and lings, but not for long it seems Dropship, landed 4 vultures in the main of Soo 55-171 Canada heavily favored
Canata a-moves tanks and vultures into Soo's nat GG from Soo Canata takes the first match making i t1-0 in favor of ace Take that Soo, just a taste of the OSL

so damn weird seeing that happen....and wrong..
ur a KT fan, should be normal in ur wildest dreams.
not like this...this hybrid season.
I think I want to do an analysis eventually where we evaluate teams based on BW games alone. It would be interesting to do a comparison of team rankings in BW, team rankings in SC2 (with and and without ace match), and team rankings overall. I wonder how inconsistent it would all be.

I wouldn't bother to care. I believe that watching the invitational requires a premium pass or something, right?
its free, only HD is paid.
Well I had difficulty working their stream earlier, hopefully I can catch some of that Over pool from Princess Iris scouts correctly with his initial scv 3 hatch build out of Princess
Third fact, on the way as is ebay Three vultures right outside of Princess' nat One vulture sacrificed to try and get a scout off Iris sees the spire, goliaths being produced, and turrets are being erected

Mutas are out now The single turret at Iris' mineral line barely unable to finish Mass goliath pushes them back though Ebay is researching something? Armory is spinning

Princess expanding to the 6 oclock as his 3rd Muta ling push into the goliath army Mine drag, takes out quit ea few golaiths Mutas just amoving into the turrets scvs being surrounded by scvs Bunker at the nat, but no marines inside Iris looks in trouble
43-43 supply Iris pretty far behind now Iris added 2 rax behind his three facts Hydra den just now planted down Looks like he was upgrading +1 bio attack
Looks like Iris was going for a m&m-goliath timing attack, but he's still upgrading stim (or range) and will probably still go through with it. But now it's pretty delayed and Alone has much time to prepare.
Mutas going to come in from behind the nat mineral line again Two speed vultures run into the 6 oclock, snipe off two drones Mutas get a turret, one scv and a golith for one of their own Two lurkers out on the field now
Stop lurkers! Princess stops them over the golaiths though, the majority of the bio forces are still in the army Iris you'd better have scans 1-1 for both bio and mech
Iris on the high ground, just outside of Princess' nat Hive is morphing Princess looking to sandwich the force Mutas fly over head to snipe the tanks, and Iris' army looks a hell of a lot weaker now
Iris is out for blood, headed for the 6 oclock Lurker ling haulting that for now 77-100 Iris in the lead Iris' reinforcements are getting caught, and the main push hes trying to deal is getting delayed 5 oclock main had a hatchery morphing in, but it gets killed off, not canceled MnM group at 5 oclock gets killed off 81-94
Defiler snipe attempt at the 5 oclock Iris goign to push there Alone goign to Doom drop though One overlord falls, two Defiler gets sniped in the drop though! Drop gets cleaned up with relative ease Vultures get into the 6 oclock and the dones get destroyed
Iris pushing into Princess' nat The hive and defiler mound are exposed Doom Drop headed up towards 1 oclock, with three overlords full of units No defense there
Dropship headed down to 5 oclock Princess attempting one last doom drop, but Iris spots it with his goliaths drones at 5 oclock get killed, all of them are dead
Iris doing some pretty fancy micro on his goliaths to rip apart a huge pack of cracklings Beserker <3 Princess mining out of 6 and 5, hardly out of his main Spire falls now
MLG streams, why you no work for me. ace gonna take scToo, I hope If Princess didn't mess up his initial stop lurkers, he might've had a better outcome
The MLG thread will be a fucking lynch mob. They will tear apart every imperfection of the BW pros because of their resentment and jealousy of their dominance of the "outdated" but more enjoyable scene and game. Never mind that they've been playing for a few months and are forced to 2 games. Also existing is tension from that Elephant in the Room TLFE. There are people rooting for Kespa players to fail. I myself don't expect much.

Sc2 fans opinion means nothing to me they can talk trash about our players but they will never ever achieve the level of our bw players have done for the broodwar scene .

Apparently an announcer for MLG just claimed that these kespa players "chose" to switch to SC2, and that SC2 is what really started esports.

I sincerely wonder if all the Korean fans are watching the MLG KeSPA tournament instead, since at least there's star power and a large crowd to make it feel exciting.

Well that's what im doing and the hype is quite huge.

Nope. SC2 isn't worth it. PL is pretty much dead to me now for that reason.
Yeah I get it ... but it has become a routine for me to cheer for my team and now it isn't just the same . Once bw is over proleague will be dead for me too.

You have to keep the crowds busy and have a little interactivity you know ?
Uhh, by the way it's sun vs kal kal snipes robo kal makes huge attack but gets rolled by thermal lanced war of worlds things. sun with 8 colossi kal with quite a few but still a smaller army sun destroying destructible rocks in path armies collide sun colossi > kal colossi gg from kal

Hyped enough to do so probably.
So is this the BW MLG thread or an LR for a game no one cares about?

didn;t really watch the game but looked like fbh did something sang like (from opening day matches sang vs best) trying to break forcefields with archons.
Again and again, just like ace vs stx, stx vs khan, khan vs cj, khan vs 8th and now, win the BW set, lose the sc2 set and ace match. Should've made the ace BW . Everyone from every team should just practice SC2 to win this PL season, unless they're still playing in the OSL.

It's kespa way of making the transition to sc2 easier for the pro's.

Yeah. Good thing OSL is going out with a bang while BW in SPL goes out with a whimper.

Would you have rather had them just do the full switch to SC2 like the OSL did instead of getting a little bit more BW?

TBH, yes. I'm probably asking for too much if I want them to have another BW PL but either way they could've just delayed the start of the SC2 season after the last BW season giving everyone time to learn the game, unlike what's happening now(players learning the game DURING the season and tons of cheesing in BW). In a full switch scenario, whether or not SKPL1 is the last BW season, BW will still end with high quality games. Watching BW lost its meaning during the current season anyway(see KT vs Stars BW games today).
WTF isn't soO supposed to practice ZvT for the OSL ? And he loses to Canata ? I love to see Canata winning, but this hybrid Proleague is crushing my hope of finishing in the liquibets top 5 :'(

Some of the games are still exciting, but the split format is really not working out so well. It's turning out to be a terrible way to try to get people to watch SC2. The Kespa exhibition event at MLG was perfect, but I don't think anyone is content with how proleague is now.
