That's not how you count macro man.. If you lose units, it's not due to mad macro. I was very impressed by bomber's play, honestly.

We should blame it on his bad economy management then

Much more entertaining that most of the BW PL games I've watched tbh.
|
Awww come on I haven't watched GSTL yet, and this comes up and spoils it because I know the teams that played. While it's somewhat of a clever title, please try not to be THAT obvious. Especially on the front-page..
|
The real question is, why have you guys (who are complaining about spoilers) not watched the GSTL, yet, given it is almost a week old.
|
i agree with spoiler on front page being a bad idea
|
I watched the GSTL today but read this ahead of time and did not mind. I love reading the write-ups if I don't have time to watch it and didn't mind the title.
|
Im sorry but the Losira-Bomber game deserved 6 stars. It was too good, which combined with Ace dancing should really bump it to 7 stars.
|
tbh , teamleague is so amazing. Makes me hype so much more than normal GSL. Cause seeing all those players stacked on each other on the stands makes me shiver! HYPE!! Can't wait for next GSTL!!
|
I found the GSTL much more exciting than the GSL.
- Seeing new people go on a devastating run - Seeing players who don't get much air time - Much more drama, with team selections/ceremonies etc... - The finals between IM and ST was sooo epic!
|
BELIEVE THE HYPE! The finals were the best games I've seen so far in sc2. The new maps introduced in GSL team leagues brought back some broodwar style back and forth games.
Simply put they were amazing games to watch. Well worth the price of admission and I hope sc2 continues to grow in this direction.
|
By far the best sc2 experience to this date for me. More GSTL would be win! :D
|
Seriously the finals was probably the most exciting I have been about esports ever.
Had I known in advance how good it would've been I'd paid like 40$ to be at the finals live.
Easily best spent 4.99$ ever. Great tournament GomTV. Enjoyable during most of it, somewhat many TvT/PvT but some really memorable moments whilst the finals just blew my mind away. <3
|
I always thought that IM was a 2 man team (MVP and Nestea) but hell I was wrong wrong wrong... IMSeed and Yongwha surprised me with their new builds taking out some good players. MVP vs Bomber was definitely the best game even though i loathe TVT who cares it' just an awesome game. I'm looking forward for the next GSTL

Uh, it's a "Starcraft Progaming News" website buddy. Says so on the banner. Does ESPN.com have spoilers for the superbowl a week after it's done?

Brilliantly written. I would have rated some of the matches differently, but the sign of a good critic is one who doesn't give out top ratings easily. Some amazing matches in there and the Bomber vs MVP made me want to go play some TvT games.

At first, thought this was a pretty dumb post. My initial thought was "Why read the post if you haven't seen it and don't want to ruin it? It clearly is going to be full of spoilers". Then I took a look at the topic's title and I have to agree with this post. While I thought the title was great, it is very revealing to who won. Maybe try a title a bit less revealing next time?

Saw the post above and pretty much just ate my words. I guess I shouldn't go to the news if I don't want to see it.
|
Great post! Even though I watched most of it, I still found it very informative. Thank you very much
|
The team league is the best thing that happened to SC2 yet (regular GSL is a joke). It's actually funny that GOM wasn't even considering a team league a while back. Here's to hoping they'll make GSTL their main event.
|
On a purely entertainment basis, the Losira-Bomber game was like a 10/5, just because Tastosis was so hilarious
|
Excellent write-up. Really enjoyed watching the GSTL. Got to see players you don't normally see and watch the players interact with their teammates. IM vs ST in the finals was definitely not a let down! Hoping that the next GSTL will be just as entertaining as this one if not more.
