So far nothing mentioned yet but hopefully they find someone to cast
|
Heh, I will probably watch this. I really want to see Scarlett play more / commit to more Brood War. She's the type of talent we desperately need more of. Her success would be so huge for the scene.
|
Nyoken and Scan would be a hype cast duo
|
Wow, I am surprised Scarlett picked up BW so quickly, I also really want her to commit fully to BW, these are exciting times.
|
this starts 4 am cest? Terrible time for me :/

I think this will be close. Scarletts superior multitasking won’t be as good in pvt.
If Scarlett wins, then we need Eon to be the next challenge!

Terrible time indeed. I'm looking forward to watch it... next day in YouTube -_-

Scarlett hype!!! Artosis might win a game but Scarlett should take the series.

Niice! But Nyoken with a too busy schedule? Would be perfect. P and T, Tasteless has played against her.
|
Really excited that Tasteless volenteered to cast. Maybe if Cadenzie is not busy she could help out too. I thought she did a fantastic job casting ASL.
|
|
I'd be impressed if Scarlett takes this. I think Artosis is the favourite, because he is an experienced Terran player. Should be good games nonetheless (especially considering Artosis hates Protoss)
|
When does the match start? This thread says 10am KST, but matcherino says 11am KST.

I hope Artosis wins but I think Scarlett will :/ Anyway this will be so fucking fun, THANKS TASTELESS!!!!
|
Hyped! I'm very happy that Tasteless will cast this showmatch. Even though I have work tomorrow, I'll still get up at 4am!
|
Great work everyone for helping support the event!!!
If we are able to raise a couple hundred more dollars this will become a BEST OF 7.
Scarlett originally wanted to 9 games (like vs Denzie) but Arty said he could not commit to that long of a series. Sooo, the longer the series the more favored Scarlett should be.
|
Been loving seeing Scarlett's rapid improvement (her games in ASL Qualifiers were also pretty impressive). Rooting for Arty as my bud but also hoping Scarlett goes far in her BW stint!
Thanks for putting together this match, should be good.
|
|
I think Scarlett is going to win pretty easily vs Artosis, she has improved so much it is insane, I am actually pretty shocked watching her play as she is coming from SC2 to BW. Let's hope for some great games though!
|
Artosis makes great commentary but Scarlett is the better player. I just wonder why Artosis dodged a BO7.
|
Why did Scarlett move from SC2 to BW?
|
To confirm, match is at 11:00am KST, starts in 90 minutes. Artosis confirmed so on stream a moment ago.

Its a best of 7 !
|
|
Wow Scarlett's getting good quickly. This has been a bloodbath so far. That first game was rough.
|
1st game: that was rough but to be fair it happens even to pro terrans, see Best vs Hiya ASTL
2nd game: Scarlett goes for a super dirty 2 shuttle with DT drop, Artosis holds and goes for a 2 base push which fails and Scarlett rolls him.
Artosis needs to get to a macro game without going behind in early-mid game if not it's going to be bad!
|
This has turned into a fantastic series. Tasteless' casting is great.
|
Game 3 on Eclipse: Scarlett goes for a gas steal into 1 gate expand, Artosis hides a 2nd barracks on the map and pulls scvs, manages to get a bunker beside the gateways and manages to kill the gateways + core before range finishes. Scarlett tries to rebuild at her nat but Artosis pulls scvs a second time and takes it.
Game 4 on Polypoid: Scarlett goes reaver, Artosis defends pretty well and takes his 3rd, pushes out at 2-1 and manages to sit outside Scarlett's nat. Game descends into chaos but Artosis manages to clinch it, great game!
|
What a nice series so far
|
Game 5: Scarlett goes forward gate and kills like 3 scvs going ahead, Artosis goes FD but screws up his micro at Scarlett's nat losing everything, Scarlett first reaver drop does ok, 2nd reaver drop does ok as well but loses 1. Scarlett then busts Artosis's 3rd and killed most tanks. Artosis decides to push with 3 base but Scarlett just has more and Artosis ggs.
Game 6: Scarlett goes proxy gateway into gas steal, zealot doesn't do much, Artosis holds and goes into 2 fac while Scarlett has 2 gate. Artosis gets a medic with his marine army and pushes out and manages to contain Scarlett.
Awesome series so far and game 7 just started!
|
I love these showmatches and hope they continue to happen. So many viewers tuning in, this is great for BW
|
|
That was a really fun series!!
|
|
what an absolutely sick series, i love it

The reason Scarlett struggles to close late PvT is unit comp. Her early-late game (or late mid-game) is very strong with a shitton of gateway units but that's good only to hold off a 1-0 140 supply tank push at around 12 minutes. Once the game goes to 16+ minutes and she's on 4ish gas with the Terran on 3 base 2-1 you can't go 1 stargate arbiter gateway anymore, you need to augment the army comp with something.
She put herself in a difficult position by playing the late-late game like it was the early-late game when critical mass tanks and upgrades make it a very different situation. Once the Terran gets to late-late game you can't break a push with gateway units and 2 arbs, you need mass arbiter, storms, or carriers.
Artosis exploited that weakness decently and had he not thrown game 7 with an antitiming push into the middle I think he'd have won it.
|
Yeah I'm interested to hear his thoughts on game 7, that was a weird timing to push out.
|
well on polypoid the main issue was starting her citadel at ~8:10, you might as well go double forge into storm if your arb timing is off
|
Was a really fun series to watch, thanks for casting it Tasteless! Your casting was amazing!

Hey Dante, here's a link to Tasteless' cast on YouTube in case you want to add it to the OP. Should be a more accessible VOD for the viewers!

It's always very weird to see to me since facebook era ended in the west around 2015-6 I would say you guys still going on strong though. Nice.
will there be any YT vods from that?
|
This was a great series, it is fun to see things like this happening in the BW scene.
Kinda sad that Scarlett is leaving Korea for a while, it would've been so much fun to see her continue to improve, it is hard and less fun to play outside Korea for her I assume.
I hope she decides to play in a BSL or something while she is in NA...
|
Artosis will be casting tomorrow (29th @10pm KST) as well ~

Great games! Thank you Scarlett and Arty for this bo7! GG Scarlett,looking forward to watch you more often playing BW! Really hope to see Day9 vs Artosis or at least Day9 to cast some games at least!
|
Wow Scarlett showed some pretty damn good play here. Also much more aggressive than in the games vs Cadenzie. Not indecisive at all, definitely liked seeing this better. I do wonder why in some games Artosis played so aggressive with pushes that could never work, I guess he didn't know Scarlett was already maxed out or felt his chances were gone. I felt in some cases taking some bases and turtling coulda worked tho.
Although I don't watch Artosis' games that much, from the games vs Kwark, I guess we can conclude he is somewhat weak against protosses that expand really fast and get a great eco going really quick. I feel that was his main weakness in this series as well. I thought he would be able to beat Scarlett on decision making, but in most games he never got into a great position aside from games when Scarlett's plan failed.
Anyway, great play from Scarlett, will be fun to see her play vs F91, hope she can show a bit more of her PvZ play, esp since she said she considered it her strongest mu, but from what we've seen in these two showmatches I felt it was not nearly as good as what she showed here.
GL Scarlett.
|
really great news
will watch for sure ^^
|
Really great match. I was very impressed by Artosis. On his stream he often has trouble with reavers, dts, and proxy gate but he held all three of them very well in this series imo.
|
Just thought I'd drop in to say how great this showmatch was to watch. Hoping for many more to come!
|
That was a fun match. I didn't expect Scarlett to be that solid after such a relatively short amount of time playing BW.
|
Is this the beginning of some new great thing to breath more life into the sc scene? This was popular wasnt it?

It was popular, Tasteless had 4.1k peak viewers last night. For comparison, his previous viewer peaks were 2.1k (Tasteless vs Catz showmatch) and 1.5k (Tasteless vs Scarlett showmatch).
Scarlett is moving back to Canada soon, where it'll be a lot harder to play with tr24. We'll have to wait and see if location prevents her from playing brood war.
|
That was an amazing showmatch, 4-3, best timeline.
Also, I just wanted to point out that Tasteless' commentary was excellent, he pointed out all the small interesting details of the matchup/plays for people who don't play bw and made it exciting too!
|
So Scarlet vs F91 should be starting really soon right? If im not confusing timezones (edit soon as in 50 minutes from now xD)

That storm in the first game....Scarlet's HT were up to their task! Edit: vs f91 that is. Wish there was a thread for that match as well :/
|
Holy shit what a game this is!
|
I thought she would lose that last game with that hold lurker but she pulled through. Unrelated but Scarlett really does not like merging HT to make Archons.
