Let's see... Best vs Sea for the semis... on the other side, think it'll wind up being Flash vs Stork.

No matter what happens, the Finals will be a TBLS member vs a good second-tier guy who's currently playing out of his mind.

Best received total of 50,000 balloons from fans when had advanced to round 8. I wonder how many he will receive today.

What's the conversion rate?

50,000 balloons equal 5,000,000 Won. Since Best is BestBJ, He receives 70%. Which is 3,750,000 Won (3115.33 USD)

Guys, he did pick up the hydras and dropped them out of BeSt's base. I'm pretty sure about that.

Game 1 was extremely wonky 9pool speed vs 1base 2gate into 2h lair vs 1base P paly, into beSt taking natural.

Game 2 was 3hatch spire (far 3rd) vs FFE 2 stargate (Hero completely failed to deal with corsairs and got rekt hard by DT as a result)

He means right when he killed the nexus. Hero stayed a bit.

1 balloon = 100 KRW
1000KRW = .80 dollar so 10 balloons = .8 dollar.
50k balloons = 5 million won
5 mil won is about 4200 USD so damn thats a decent amount of money.

I wonder how big this ASL is in Korea right now? Is it getting coverage, now that the big boys are back?

Game 1 was a huge mindgame play from Best. Best had shown Gate-first in both his PvZs vs Jaedong, Hero wanted to punish with the 9 pool gas opener, so best went 2 gate instead. pretty weird game but it worked for him.

apparently from bisudagger on stream, koreans used to not cover tournaments that much and teamliquid was actually the biggest site for korean brood war for a good amount of time. now that TBLS is back and theres more hype around starcraft, a lot of his korean friends are even talking about Sea's interviews and stuff with other sponsors and people.

Enjoy the game

Hero needed to kill the templar archives and then control the ramp with those hydras. The main was 95% mined out, I really don't understand what was the point of killing that nexus.

It really doesn't matter. Hero lost when hydraling all-in failed.

I'm not sure. Best also had a failed attack from a semi-all in... I mean if you go for 7-8 gateways from 2 bases, and you don't kill a zerg, you're not in the best shape.

that wasn't semi all-in. Hero had 3-4 drones at his third with no lair tech. That's all-in. Best had all his tech up with 3 gate ways and highly saturated probes. Plus all the pro gamers watching this said it's impossible for Best to lose this bc all in failed.
