Leader and high performing player of what many consider to be the number one clan outside of Korea... Game is a monster and has a variety of play styles and meta-game tactics. Shimy tells me that Game is the best player outside of Korean until proven otherwise by a show match, well here it is! Game also went 8-0 during Nation wars up till taking a loss to the.WK in the Semi-Final.
Fox.Bibiane
Bibiane's play is very strong, he is the spitting image of the Korean pro-gamer style. His micro especially is very strong, however, we also see Bibiane use the map design to his advantage which makes him a difficult opponent even in PvT. In order to beat Bibiane, good map preparation is required... He is not to be underestimated. Bibiane recently All-Killed team China in the Gambit's Cup.
LRM)Choosy is and has been one of the best foreign players in the scene for some time, however, his lackluster performances in individual leagues may have often put him down, however, he generally does not fail to impress in clan leagues such as Gambit's Cup. From Day 1 of the Twitch.TV Gambit's Cup to the All-Star break, LRM)Choosy had by far the top rating of any player. Choosy is such a great clan war player, now is the time to see how he fares in a Show Match situation in one of his best match ups.

reps)Defi reps)Defi has been a long time supporter of foreign Brood War and now has a chance to demonstrate his personal skill. Defi is mostly known as a 2v2 player, however, his 1v1 play has shown some excellent peaks. What potentially makes Defi's game knowledge is his constant race swapping between Protoss and Zerg. With sufficient knowledge of this match up, Defi is sure to put up a good fight against the protoss hero, dOTY.
SJ.dOTY
SJ.dOTY was the finalist of Altitude's International Starleague and currently known as the strongest foreign Protoss player. His great play stems majorly from his macro in PvZ/PvT and his solid Zealot micro control in PvP. dOTY offers a large arsenal of several effective builds in PvZ all with variant aggression timings which is sure to keep reps)Defi guessing.

Cool, seems good, I am pretty sure bibiane is going to win this though, i'm pulling for him. I also didn't know about Game being the best foreigner outside of korea, when did this happen? ... I would have chosen a different player but meh. :-p
GL HF I hope there isn't any TvT's to be honest.
God bless~

When you do this in a thread that is supposed to be about a different showmatch, it just looks like you are starving for attention, so you post about an incoming showmatch, in an incoming showmatch thread. Bad taste in my opinion my friend. -.-;;
And regarding Game being the best foreigner, it's just showmatch hype. I don't think anyone is seriously gonna argue he's better than someone like Sziky.

Might I recommend you spoiler your post on this thread just so you don't potentially right and spoil other people.

What happens on ladder vs what happens in Show Match are in no way related.

This sounds like it'll be great. Interacting and playing with bibiane's stream last night was loads of fun, so I hope these games show fun sides. I also really believe we should set up: Gosu v Team Mele cept they'd have to be streamed live since you can't have team mele replays ):

Those are horrible because everyone essentially stumbles over each other trying to do different things, and someone's always like "We need to go reavers so I can micro the reaver, trust me." and then they lose the reaver and the macro people try to build stuff, and other people cancel their stuff and waste money on other stuff and it's just ridiculous and doesn't really give an advantage to the people playing on the team melee side.
>: Y u no like Team Mele ]: Yes that all does happen, but its precisely why we should encourage more Team Mele play, because teams and teamwork would develop and people would learn to mesh better. I've found that having one strong player to carry the team, handle all the macro and building decisions, and just give the army and harass units works out OK.
Also, team mele teams can have someone specifically dedicated to distracting the opponents (chat), and can stream snipe easier. All in all .... I should make a different topic.
They did a bit of team melee in TL-Attack with BW. But I s'pose the gap between top players and not so top players isn't that big anymore. One exclusively macros while the other exclusively micros. It really wasn't that calamitas.
I'll just take the liberty to post the stream link, I had some trouble finding it at least. And with only 5 viewers I think more have the same problem..
