Here's the VoD with my commentary. Unfortunately, I was not expecting to be casting for 4+ hours, so I dropped out 3.5 hours into the cast just before the Bisu/Flash/Jaedong matches. If the matches were any good, I may revisit them and cast them anyway, but I was just wiped out yesterday morning.

Best games (imo):
BoxeR vs YellOw G1
Reach vs Nada G2

lets duo the TBLS games <3

It's not a case of form. Jaedong is not the best zerg and only got invited because of his part in TBLS.

As mentioned above, Jaedong is the best Zerg of all time. As is Bisu/Flash to his respective race.

BTW that Boxer v Yellow G2 map with the ridge overlooking the natural expo looks imba af against Zerg - as imba as Obi-wan holding the high ground.

Is this one of the reasons why some people accuse KeSPA for being biased towards Boxer?

So remastered is out in pc bangs right? Can somebody who knows about the pc bang scene, etc tell me when to expect the stats?
If i check it now it doesn't make much sense to me: http://gametrics.com/

3.78%, that looks like the normal range of bw. That surely cannot be the actual % right now?

Even tho i hope for the best for bw scene i dont get the good feeling by watching these crippled graphics take over my favorite game... The thing still looks ugly, so ugly i have hard time watching more than 15 min of gameplay.

Not a bad event overall. Glad to have seen some of the older pros play the game. I have some concerns about how certain things look etc... so depending on how I find rm, I might just play on the original graphics. Was never really bothered playing on them before so this doesn't change much. Glad to see such a large turnout and support from KR and the foreign scene ^^

Not entirely sure but from the graph it looks like it s calculated over the past 7days?

Nah i think the % is daily based. I am just wondering if these are actually remastered numbers because if so then that's a bit disappointing. I guess we have to wait and see

It's also entirely possible that SC:R will simply cannibalize and "absorb" the old version of BW (while also hopefully attracting people who haven't played in a while / ever).

Does anyone know if SC:R comes out on OSX on day 1? Or at all?

Man i cant stand the LOL moments where they zoom up archon for all to awe to its merging animation and then we see a poop emerging to our screens. New archon is much worse than the original but the commentators say "omg its so beautiful" reminding me of the tale of "the kings new clothes" where the king was naked but no one had the balls to say it, because its the king. Why they change the perfection when they said it cant be changed? Im not saying its perfect im saying they made it worse than original in many areas. Zealot death animation looks like zealot soul is made of smoke?!? Warping vortex of the protoss buildings looks like a dozen of pencil scratches in a chaotic movement which is out of any logic. Siege tank is like hand drawn fan art from non professional artist... Units look bland on screen, there is much less distinction between them making it harder to watch and play. Im not buying this disaster for sure. I just hope Korean pro scene will be revived and sustained, even if i dont watch as much as before il be happy with it.
