Haha nice OP. How to watch?
|
Can anyone be a TL hero and translate some talk? pleeeeeeaaaaaseeeeee.....
|
So many STX members almost 1/3 of the tourney is STX, that team is going to have some serious sway in how things playout.
|
First OP for me! Am the only TL user from Lebanon (so I think!) so you must take special care of me
|
Please edit your op to make it decent at least.
|
What's the little (*) ? Possible royal road ?

this might be the best OSL in quite a while imo. Even though I don't particularly like bisu, it seems that with his recent addition almost every good player there is is in the league (apart from my favorite, Backho though). Ok, Tester should have been Jangbi or Mind, but otherwise, I'm sooo hyped for this!

Kal and Tester are also potential Royal Roaders if you do the Ro16 = OSL rule (Ro36 is defined as a qualifying tournament not officially OSL IMO)

Basically, whoever is picked gets to pick the next player in their group during the next round of picks.
i.e. A picks B. B picks C. C picks D.
Well, at least that's how it worked in previous OSL group selections.

Stork mentioned something about F4 (Boys Before Flower)????!?!?

Haha Stork looked embarrassed at the end of his intro.

Stork: Hello this is Batoo OSL group selection
1st theres a lot of good players here today
2nd Bisu made it into RO16 through wildcard. I wonder how his relationship w/ 2 other STX members (didnt catch the names) will be today. Group selection will be starting soon
Thats the jist of what i got. Wasnt paying attention
|
Wow the stream can't even survive for a second before it freezes.
|
Does Bisu have crap w/ STX members? I didnt get what Stork was trying to say.
|
woot, watching on LIVE TELEVISION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bisu and Hwasin have a bit of a rivalry since Bisu called Hwasin "insurance terran" when Bisu put Hwasin in his group and I THINK he proceeded to kick Hwasin's butt to move on.
I THINK the other guy would be JulyZerg because of that game where Bisu disconnected and Bisu thought the game should be replayed and they awarded the game to July (though it really looked like July would win). Correct me if I'm wrong tho
|
VLC stream:
mms://liveongame.gscdn.com/L1
should work. Edit: beaten! Avast!
You can also watch it on yaoyuan, clicking the "WMP(800K)" link to the right of OGN.
Any games tonight, or just koreans talking?
|
Though they might have mentioned Hero, not July, because Hero beat Bisu in the ro32 in this OSL...

oh god hwasin wants stork hwasin bisu jaedong group
|
Hwasin puts it into himself, Bisu, and Jaedong into group A vs Stork
|
|
|
Hwasin: i picked tihs because i wanted to face strong players in the beginning.
Bisu got lucky qualifying, even though he had a tough time coming up. I want to beat him to teach him a lesson. I hope this gropu doesnt change.
|
So... no games tonight? Maybe there are some rerun streams on MBC.

BISU AND HIS FANGIRLS! He looks like a retard with that outfit, though

hwasin basically wants to play strong opponents first, and also kick bisu's ass because he lucked into osl
bisu wants stork hwasin jaedong(LOL NAME UPSIDE DOWN)
|
LOL Bisu puts JD's name tag upside down
|
Bisu picks the same as Hwasin, he was about to pick up Flash but he just brushed by it like. "psh"
|
Wow...thats a pretty pimp outfit for Bisu.
Bisu picks......himself, hwasin, and jaedong (BACKWARDS) in group A
Bisu: Stork wanted to pick me so i just put it there. I want to get friendlier with these players. We'll see what happens from here.

We came so close to a ridiculous group of death.
|
When Bisu said in a recent interview that the new maps favor Zerg, not a lot of people took him seriously. But the Zerg players got chosen very late today, and when Bisu chose his opponent he said he's picking the easiest among the Zerg lot. I wonder if the progamers know something we haven't quite realized yet... (Actually, I'm pretty sure they've noticed something during their practice sessions that is not quite obvious from the map statistics yet.)

A1 - B2 \ ---- \ B1 - C2 / \ ----- C1 - D2 \ / ---- / D1- A2 /
For this bracket we might see Bisu - Flash vs Jaedong - BeSt Final Four
|
@Dyno: Can't decide which one is more unlikely, Bisu > Jaedong or Leta > Bisu...
|
I don't like Stork and Bisu chances. It's like have guaranteed one loss already:-/
|
dammit, I really wanted to see that group of death in Group A of Stork, Bisu, Flash and Jaedong..... why Bisu why?!?!?! If you only picked Flash... he would have picked JD...... Bisu chickened out... =(

Things do not always go as they are supposed to.
That said, I predicted Bisu over Jaedong because lately (last month or so), other than a few setbacks, Bisu is doing better than Jaedong. I also took his "I have a secret weapon against zerg on Tears of the moon" to heart.
I picked Leta over Bisu because Leta is a great player who is virtually untested in starleagues. Truth be told, I just want to see him royal road.
Incidentally, I messed up the brackets and I'm not longer expecting Bisu and Jaedong to meet.

I was talking strictly about match-up strength. I know Leta is hot right now, but considering Bisu's current PvT, that's a lot of faith you have in Leta's ability. Again match-up-wise, while Bisu's overall performance has been good, his performance vs Zerg has been horrible, and Jaedong won pretty convincingly last time they met (as well as other important ZvP games he had.)

TY for translations guys! XYoon!!!
|
OGN redraw Ro8 matchups every Starleague, so the predictions beyond the group stage might be a little too early now...
|
NP guys. OSL was a lot more formal and slow paced compared to the MSL so it was easier to follow and translate.
Can't wait for Group A!

a: Stork -> Bisu -> YellOw[ArnC] -> July b: fantasy -> Tester -> Leta -> by.hero c: BeSt -> Hwasin -> UpMagiC -> Flash d: GGPlay -> Kal -> Luxury -> Jaedong
Group A: July and Arnc Group B: Leta and Fantasy Group C: UpMagic and Flash (but probably BeSt and Flash lol) Group D: Either Lux and another person or JD and another person, but not both

DEFINITELY because of FBH and Magma

Group A: Bisu and July Group B: Leta and Fantasy Group C: Best and Flash Group D: Kal fails, Jaedong and Luxury advance
|
lol, nobody wants to get raped by JD
|
Group A Stork, July Group B Leta, by.hero Group C BeSt, FlaSh Group D Luxury, Jaedong but the ideal for me in fantasy osl would be stork/bisu, leta, best, all advancing. do it guys! make me a champ!

haha it was so funny to see flash's "Who do you want to be friendly with" answer
He responded "Yarnc, because I want to compare the brothers." Then he said "Luxury is better at all-ins and other decision making, but Yarnc is overall a better player" lool
and seriously, if Group A did end up being Flash/Stork/Bisu/Jaedong
that would've been the absolute most ridiculous group of death of alltime.
|
|
Thanks for the LR's, especially you XYoonZ!
And to all you non-believers, July has been practicing hard and will rock this OSL. I can feel it!
|
|
Fuck yes. Good group for July.
Kal pretty much got his dream group, but if anyone can fuck it up it's him. He's been playing pretty poorly lately.

Awesome! I got about as good of a group selection as I could have hoped for my fantasy team.
Bisu vs Stork, YellOw[ArnC], July YellOw[ArnC] vs Bisu, Stork, July Leta vs fantasy, Tester, by.hero Flash vs BeSt, Hwasin, UpMagiC Jaedong vs GGPlay, Kal, Luxury
Leta's almost a lock to move on. Bisu, Jaedong, and Flash's chances all look promising to make the Ro8. The only player I'm worried about not making it out of his group is Yarnc, but losing a player at this point is somewhat expected.

These groups are great. What a talented OSL field!
BeSt should ezmode his group yet again.

Best will rape all terrans, and will 3:0 July in the finals.

best over fantasy in finals

It seems like every OSL season at about this time, the Best hype starts getting kicked up.
|
Yarnc/July Leta/hero Best/Flash Jaedong/Luxury
Year of the Swarm!
|
Not that JD wouldnt be a favourite in any group, but for once he actually got one he can pretty much dominate on a good day.
I really like these groups, can expect some really hot games :D

I wonder what would've happened today if Bisu actually decided to choose flash, and like Flash said previously he would've chosen JD if that would've happened.
There would be a huge fucking shitstorm in here
|
these groups are really balanced (I do think group A is hella strong though). Should be a great OSL!
|
|
All Star OSL is fucking amazing. I'm so pumped. It really only looks like Leta has a free walk, and that's debatable.
|
wow..narrowly avoided a TaekBang LeeSsang group of DEATH.
WOW..imagine that..a full semifinals in the ro16..
lol

That would of been such an amazing group of death that people are STILL talking about it even though it never happened.
just the thought of it sets these forums aflame
|
tbh I'd hate it if all those amazing players were in the same group. Those matchups are what I want to see in a Bo3/Bo5
|
These are really balanced groups
ACD all have great potential, but could also easily be one sided rapes
|
Wow, awesome OSL.
Can't wait for matches!
|

Would have liked Bisu to pick Flash.
As it is, no absolutely outstanding groups but no absolute pushovers either.
|
I'm going to call this right now: Best won't even make it out of his group. That's because of all the hype, and the universe loves disappointing people.
|
|
It's about time Best wins OSL!
|
Stork is very screwed. His group has Bisu and two zergs... It is definitely the group of death this OSL.
Why Stork Why....!?!?
I think Leta, Flash, and Jaedong have near perfect groups.
|
Stork can beat yarnc. He probably has no chance against July. So it comes down to whether he can beat Bisu.
|
wow.. bisu vs july! ^^ oh god bisu vs stork too. bisu vs yarnc..
group A is tough~!
but pretty much all groups are hard. this osl should be amazing!
bisu fighting~

Thanks for translations XYoonZ.

someone feeding Stork some drugs i think Hrm to be fair, he's 3-4 overall vs july, 3-0 in 2007 (the last time they met) and 3-0 vs Yarnc (2007, 2006).
So he's technically correct, it's just .. that was forever ago ;p
|
Come on Bisu! I'm a little worried, but he can pull it off if he plays like he should.
|
Ive been waiting a year for a Stork v July rematch
|
I hope they dont do what MSL did and remove streams for forigneres.. or this will be a huge fail
|
|
Bisu ina grup with 2 Zergs and Stork Shit .... maybe just maybe he goes 0-X....
|
nice balanced groups
if no disasters happen..we will have a awesome quarter finals!

TERRAN ARE EASY! PUAHAHAHHAHAHA. Best has part one easily.

I don't think it'll be easy for flash with two strong terrans and one of the deadliest pvts.
All groups look decent except for the second one.

Interested to see what Bisu's "secret weapon" vZ on Tears is, or if he was just putting on a charade :p
Would love to see July vs. Best rematch!
Huuuuuuuuuuuuge thanks to XYoonZ for translating, and to Plexa/IntoTheWow for copy/pasting the translations into the thread so losers like me who couldn't watch this live could read up on the fun later

I honestly think Bisu's a goner but hoping to be wrong. =\
I am entirely unconvinced of his ZvP lately.

one of my favorite things about bisu is he's almost never been a huge favorite over another good player throughout his career, and he always seems to barely pull through. makes his victories that much more exciting.
...except when he loses, obviously :/

what's with all the people predicting yarnc to advance? His ZvP is... unfortunate. July has a much better chance...
I say
Stork/July Leta/by.hero Best/Flash Jaedong/Luxury
(actually kal has a good chance in group D too. Mr. hivetech will not be seeing much hivetech vs Z though lol)

^^^^^^^^ We predicted almost the same things, except that I'm guessing fantasy < by.hero. Im Guessing that by.hero will surprise fantasy just as he surprised Bisu (and everyone else that watched the game). YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST (unless someone else already predicted this, in which case you heard it over there first).
Edit: actually I read back some pages and it seems some other people already predicted by.hero progressing. Most people are making a lot of guesses like mine, too. Well, too bad for my flashy original ingenuity, then.

I forget which tournament it was, from a few years back, xellos was facing some p player i forgot. in an interview, xellos had a secret build. it was m&m. he got raped. everyone was disappointed =(
anyway, for whatever reason, i feel very uneasy for bisu..

is there a stream for this?
