BJ Ssabi is hosting a round of 8 tournament with our favorite ex-pros. The tour is sponsored by [NeOx]Shabang and takes place daily over this week. The bad news is we missed three days. Good news is there are still four more days to go. Another good news is the tourney starts 7 PM KST, that is two hours earlier than Love's sponleague. Yet another good news is that Ssabi is uploading VODs to his YouTube channel.

gogo Sea!

I always miss Mist games. 
It doesn't look good for Jaehoon, his nexus is going to get demolished.
|
Japan11286 Posts
|
Norway25712 Posts
Sea's pulling back to defend though. That's a lot of carriers and not a lot of goliaths.
nvm there's more than I thought.
Looks good for Sea no

nice try by Jaehoon
Unfortunately, Sea too good
|
Japan11286 Posts
I guess there were too much goliaths. The wraith were a nice touch from Sea.
|
Norway25712 Posts
hah, this music
Wouldn't be too surprised if this is a 3-0.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Nah, Jaehoon's better than you think. JAEHOON HWAITING!!!
Sea at 5, Jaehoon at 7
|
Japan11286 Posts
Siege expand for Sea. 2 gate core range for the Hoon
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea's nat is set. Jaehoon's nat finishes a bit later. Shuttle inc.
|
Norway25712 Posts
Prefer Sea's opening by far. Let's see how he deals with shuttles tho
|
Japan11286 Posts
DT drop incoming but Sea has turrets.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea deals with the DTs with scans. Sea with another cc at his base.
|
Japan11286 Posts
3 base arbiter from the Hoon. Sea pushes, can Jaehoon hold long enough?
|
Japan11286 Posts
|
Norway25712 Posts
Nope! Jaehoon's wrap-around fails.
ez 2-0
make it 3 in a row pls
|
Japan11286 Posts
Wtf, Jaehoon attacks from a really awkward angle to GG.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Jaehon at top right, Sea at bottom left. Blue Storm

Jaehoon then gas steals, gets 1 kill from his probe.
|

Sea lost all but 1 marine there.

Goon arrives but Sea gets a bunker up. The hoon retreats.

Norway25712 Posts
Idunno, Sea might've lost a couple SCVs too many there.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Jaehoon took an expo and dives through the bunker to snipe a tank, where Sea pulls workers to help. 2nd tank deals with the goons
|
Japan11286 Posts
It all depends on Jaehoon's follow-up I guess.
Sea has nat expo now and pushes with a small force.
|
Norway25712 Posts
Well, Vulture getting pretty much full scout and some kills sure helps.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea doesn't bother with extra aggression and expands instead.
Fleet beacon just finished...
|
Japan11286 Posts
Here comes the timing push.
|
Norway25712 Posts
Base to the north probably going down. Not enough carriers to defend.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Well, there goes Jaehoon's 12. Weird place to put up an expo.
|
Norway25712 Posts
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea takes another expo at 11. Sea keeping Jaehoon's 5-6 carriers away from his bases well.
edit - spoke too soon
|
Norway25712 Posts
We going for a replay of g1 now?
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea neglects his bases to go straight at the toss base.
GG lol
|
Norway25712 Posts
Ends too soon, gg tho. 3-0!
|
|
|
Japan11286 Posts

Three terrans, one protoss, no zerg.
Seems about right.
|
Norway25712 Posts
Means guaranteed terran in finals. I don't mind that ^^

Let's go 1st 2nd 3rd Terran Pride hwaiting!!

Not that I have a problem with Mong but Shuttle, you must prevent a TvT finals.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mist, Shuttle at left, Mong is at the right.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong might've lost a little too many scvs there.
|
Japan11286 Posts
|
Japan11286 Posts
I like Mong's plan of walling off the middle and harass the vulnerable expansions.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Recall at Mong's 2, then recall at Mong's main. Shuttle has little income though, don't know how he'll replenish his army.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle at 110, Mong at 147 supply.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle tries a defensive recall at his 1 expo only to hit a lot of mines. Shuttle hasn't been dealing well with these drops.
Mong finally strolls to Shuttle's base. Shuttle just had nothing left and ggs.
|
SSabi apologizes for the map choice ^^
Mong agrees it's a Terran map.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Why?
Next game. Mong at 11, Shuttle at 1
edit - looks like it. first mist game i've watched.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Rax expand for Mong, zealot first gate core for Shuttle.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle takes his third base at 3 o'clock shortly after getting obs.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong takes the min only.
Citadel going up.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle takes his min only, getting arbiters.
Mong at 9 factories.
|
Japan11286 Posts
That 12 o'clock area is going to be a real hotspot as Mong takes it and threatens Shuttle's min only.
Mong cancels his CC as he loses 12 to Shuttle's troops.
|
Japan11286 Posts
|
Japan11286 Posts
LOL, large vulture army vs a mostly zealot toss army. Looks legit.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong who's been turtling for quite a while moves out.
Meanwhile, Shuttle has taken bottom right.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle's zeals power through the mass of vultures and the toss army utterly decimates Mong
|
Japan11286 Posts
130 supply for Mong, 144 for Shuttle
|
Norway25712 Posts
Made it back in time! How's the fightin been?
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle expansions sprout like mushrooms all over the bottom.
Recall at 9 deals little damage due to quick response.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Either the game's weird or I'm feeling weird right now. Mong still at 1-2 upgrades despite an already long game.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong shelling 7, his army blocks the way for Shuttle. Shuttle's 3 has also been taken out.
Shuttle tries to break Mong's tank line but falls short and retreats.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Half of Shuttle's supply must be probes. He has a supply lead of almost 40 but his army is smaller than Mong's.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Hallucination recall at Mong's main, his forces are all the way at the bottom of the map.
|
Norway25712 Posts
big recall into Mong's base
that hurts D:
|
Japan11286 Posts
Another recall on top of some tanks!
|
Norway25712 Posts
That was so close to being a recall onto mines T_T
IT KINDA WORKED
|
2 base vs 2 base, tho Shuttle with some bank. Mong was low on resources and needed every unit. As Ssabi notes, Shuttlr seems to be thrown off by the Mist game. Maybe he can make something happen with this double recall.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong 90 supply
Shuttle 160 supply
|
Norway25712 Posts
I'd be surprised if Shuttle can't close this one out.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong is trying to hold on, he's running on fumes.
|
Japan11286 Posts
That'll require a big time miracle.
|
Japan11286 Posts
|
Japan11286 Posts
Gotta buy food. Just hoping for a long game.
|
gg. Shuttle did well with the double recall, tho Mong was fighting an uphill battle already.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Both players at 3 bases. Carriers incoming
|

Mong secures his plateau.

Neo Electric Ckt
Mong at 7 with his third at the back expo just finished.
Shuttle at 11 already had 3 bases earlier than Mong. He gets a reaver
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle defends with 2 reavers as he takes a 4th at 12. Mong sieges up and takes out the backdoor block
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle swings behind Mong's push and obliterates the force tailing the main push. Arbiter is out.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle pauses for a few seconds then continues upward, cleaning Mong's mech handily.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mong's in trouble, another mech army falls outside his nat. Its completely open to attack.
There you go, GG from Mong.
Shuttle advances to the finals 3-1

Weeell, I'm ok with Sea v Shuttle in the finals.

Sea's first wraith is out.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mind with hidden 2 port at the mineral only of 1.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mind's wraith surprise attack worked wonderfully, allowing to him neutralize Sea's hold on the high ground near his base.
Sea took 9.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mind's 4 wraiths die to a lone valk as Mind takes 3 o'clock. Tanks split the map at the middle.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mind takes 1 o'clock.
Sea tries to engage at the upper part of the middle area but Mind ends up wiping Sea's tanks off the map.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea, with his pushes always getting killed ggs.
Lackluster games so far. Its just one side getting an advantage that snowballed into opponent GGing. (Don't bother with the 1st game.)
Blue Storm now.
Sea at top right, Mind at bottom left.

Japan11286 Posts
Mind with a barracks inside Sea's main.

My laptop restarted.
Tuned in in just in time for Mind dying to Sea.
Is this the shortest Bo5 TvT with 4 games already played?
|
Japan11286 Posts
I don't think I'm LRing right now, just commenting a little on the games.
FS. Mind at 7, Sea at 5.
Barracks for both.
|
Japan11286 Posts
After barracks, CC goes down for Mind. Factory is Sea's choice.
Both guys with wrong scouts at first try.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea lands his barracks near Mind's nat and trains rines. Is he planning a push?
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mind is contained by Sea's push but eventually breaks free thanks to early wraiths.
Sea going to give Mind his own medicine with hidden 2 port.
|

Forgot this was happening today! Thanks for being around cerb.
Will surely watch all 5 games. Sounds like they were fast and furious.
|
too fast for a TvT, not sexy at all.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Did I make them sound that way? The series did have the feel of a ZvZ series. Its kind of unusual.

As I tune in, Shuttle is defending from an early push from Sea in the terran haven of Mist.
|
Best part is that sea is expanding behind this :D
|
Japan11286 Posts
Aaaaand Sea takes the first set.
|
Japan11286 Posts
I didn't see the details behind this because I'm trying to watch IriS make that Moscow LAN, COSL and this.
Anyway, CB now. Sea at 7, Shuttle at 5.
SHUTTLE HWAITING!!!!
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea going to push out to counter toss' third expo
|
Japan11286 Posts
But Shuttle manages to neutralize the push!
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea scrapes some more units and drives Shuttle's 4 goons back. Sea starts to bombard the third at 3
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle destroys Sea's units at his third. Sea expanded behind the push.
Shuttle, who went arbiter tech decides to copy Sea and attack his third. Stasis goes down on the tanks.
Sea's stuff is too little to resist and GGs

Sea spawns at 11. Shuttle spawns at 1.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Shuttle took his min only. Sea going for FD.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea's taken his min only and his nat. Shuttle is in a contain and can't expand to his nat.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea's contain didn't last too long as Shuttle's goons run over it with a shuttle overhead.
Shuttle then continues to Sea's nat and kills most of Sea's units but some scvs and buildings block the way. Shuttle pulls back before he takes too much damage himself.
Sea takes 12.
Carriers for Shuttle.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea pushes and sets up shop near the backdoor block. Shuttle tried to break the push but Sea has too many units.
2 carriers are out during the battle.

Sea is at 7. Shuttle is at 5.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Sea's ahead in expansions again.
Shuttle with 2 base arbiter only getting a 3rd now.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Mines and high ground tanks really hurt Shuttle there.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Just as Shuttle clears the vultures at his new expo site at 1, Sea decides to push towards Shuttle's natural.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Even when half of Sea's army in stasis, Shuttle can't break the slow push.
GG from Shuttle. Sea with the overwhelming advantage.
|
|
|
Damn i missed the games Is it over already? Results?
|
Japan11286 Posts
