Wow way to spoil the team league for those of us who havent watched it yet =/


Haha gtfo if you really cared you would of checked them out by especially considering the hype about some of the finals games like MVPs tvt. Thanks for the great writeup let me read up on the day i missed out on, i always love reading these and i find the opinion on the quality of the games similiar to mine, thanks for the quality content.

Ps: thought ogs would take the league but IM definatly deserved it and it was great to see some new players who definatly deserve code S like bomber/squirtle/seed startale and IM definatly have players who are amazing but havnt managed to prove themselves yet due to whatever reason.

The GSTL was so good! The team dynamic definitly added a lot. The Final was the most epic thing I have seen in sc2 yet.

MVP vs Squirtle should be 5 stars too, good macro oriented game with mothership. Who cares about comebacks

The Terminus Re game between Squirtle and Mvp was the most epic PvT I have ever seen. Seriously that game was incredibly sick! I think the larger maps are definitely going to make for much more interesting games if this is anything to go by. Congrats to IM and great article write up!

Excellent write-up! I'll definitely have to give some of the earlier matches with 3-4 stars a second look.

Really, there were two big horrible things about the GSTL.
First, there wasn't more of it. Second, now every tournament I ever watch will leave me thinking, "well, it was ok, but it wasn't any Feb2011 GSTL."

Seriously. That was the most amazingly epic 3-day tournament ever. I just wish there could have been more somehow. I want to watch it over and over and overrrr.

Great write up! I'm still trying to catch up on some of the games from the first couple of days as I missed a few. Now I know which ones to watch!

I really enjoyed this league. The maps were great and it was good to see some new faces show some considerable skill.

Can't wait for GSL march with new maps!
Just a simple guy, going wherever this journey takes me.

After reading some posts about GSLT, there's a good chance I'll become a GOM season ticket buyer.

motbob's bias on the day one results kinda turned me off reading the entire thing. I continued though.

The other reviews were top notch, well done everyone, and congratz to IM.

My only wish/hope for the future is that they'll adopt a format that will see more matches! I would LOVE a round robin of teams, or group stages so we can see more combinations of opposing teams against :D

It was a dissapointment to see the last game essentially come down to

NesTea -> "Oh, I lost almost sll my drones... but he lost his army... better all-in with zergling/hydra!"

If this happened 15 seconds later, Squirtle would of had a colossus out and there is absolutely NOTHING nestea could do with 5-10 hydra vs a colossus sniping from the high ground.

I just wanted to see squirtle, someone without much spotlight this until GSTL, to beat both MVP and NesTea.

great writeup, really great. Like watching the games all over again. The GSTL really is something else compared to the GSL. They both have their place but imho the GSTL with the whole group dynamic is just more interesting and fun, also allows for ceremonies in a way that just cant be done in the GSL :D

For anyone who hasnt seen the GSTL, and the finals in particular, go do it. The sooner the better.

Again, a great write up. A wall of text has never been so enjoyable to read.

I don't know, it just seemed a little agressive towards the players who made mistakes. No one is perfect, especially when playing in a major SC2 tourney like the GS(T)L.
