But I wanted to see Larva instead of s2 or Miso. Also I have high expectations from Soulkey to perform well. He's been sauroning many A class progamers recently on ladder.

more like derping hard in every tourney he play since his VNSL win long ago. kill the shuttle then leave the morphing archon there at the 6 clock. stupid..
lol Hoejja 3rd goes down, should have morphed lair there edit: gg, decisive game on CB 9 pool speed, Sky opts for forge+cannon before nexus(1 gate opening) Hoejja being smart with 2nd gas at 3rd base which goes unscouted Really laggy right now but i think it's over, Hoejja wins
Watched Soulkey's games. Seems a bit rusty but something's still there. The game vs Hiya with all the cheesy stuff (ebay block, proxy fact into floated proxy fact, then 2 port wraiths) was quite entertaining

Hiya is the best! Okey maybe not, but he abused the opponent's weakness really hard. Not long games and entertaining. The gg timing by soulkey says to me, that he wasnt fully prepared.

I know its pretty pointless but I missed the matches live last night by like an hr b/c I was playing on iccup, I came to this thread to ask for vods or a resteam which I found at the same time I found out the score. I know im not the only one looking to watch this afterwards and those ppl are most likely to come here than the VOD thread if they wanna watch the TSL. thanks anyway to ppl who comply. Also thanks for the resteam post

Yeah, that's understandable.
Although, we have Small VOD Thread exactly for that purpose, so hopefully we get more people to contribute to it so it's always up-to-date .
To be fair it's hard to keep the VOD thread up to date if the organizer suddenly decides to do halfass work. Any impatient viewers will likely scroll the tourney thread in hopes of VODs. Pro tip: don't be impatient or improve your google skills
Right now BJ Thrill hasn't (yet) bothered to upload Ro8 to YouTube like before, so I opted to wait for him to pick up the slack, for sake of keeping the same format. (This is why I prefer to only upload the bigger leagues. They're much more likely to be a consistent/reliable source.)
I feel kinda bad for Hoejja. He was looking in good shape vs Mind on Match Point, then after a brief pause and save he got dropped. I think chatting while the game was paused or pausing alone might have broken the save game, because they restarted from scratch.
Shuttle needs to hand his pro licence back after losing game three to zero. Why he delayed his cannons after scouting the hydra all in I'll never know.
It would be nice if we could get a translation of the winner's interview later. It shouldn't take much time as it's short anyway. Anyone who can speak Korean, please help. Interview starts on 1:02:20

EffOrt's was just not aggressive enough in that last set vs 
Sky :/ Glad to see another Zerg advance into the Ro8, though
PianO make it through and
