Liquibition #25 - Rise
December 16th, 2008 15:31 GMT
There once was a time where Liquibition was a once in a few months event. Things got worse after episode #20 when it became essentially a once in a year thing. However, those days are long gone and a full season of Liquibition has been scheduled! Following on from Liquibition #24 comes Liquibition #25 – ‘Rise’, which promises to be another epic encounter between two amazing gamers.
Last week MYM.IefNaij defeated his TSL nemesis Brat_OK 4-2 in impressive fashion. The games were close, exciting and are definitely worth the watch. You can check out the VODs or Download the replays from here. As per the Liquibition tradition, IefNaij gets to defend his Liquibition title for another week and has a chance to win another $100! Here is the updated history of Liquibition;

#24 IefNaij 4-2 Brat_OK December 14, 2008
A challenger has indeed risen and will be fighting IefNaij for the Liquibition crown and that challenger is none other than MYM.DinOt. DinOt is the future of foreign Zerg players – he is still very young and ambitious, and on top of that he is extremely talented. He is arguably the 2nd best foreign Zerg at the moment. He managed to make it to the Round of 8 in the TSL where he was stopped by none other than IefNaij 1-3. Eager for his chance at revenge, he simply smiled at the opportunity to challenge IefNaij and get some revenge for TSL.
As per last week, the players were asked to pick 3 maps each to play on in Liquibition. IefNaij chose Andromeda, Wuthering Heights and Longinus II. DinOt picked Tau Cross, Python and Medusa. While IefNaij’s decision to pick Wuthering Heights may be seen as a “low blow” against DinOt considering the supposed P>Z imbalance on the map, it was actually the only map where DinOt was able to take a game off IefNaij from the TSL. This map is all about revenge and the game is undoubtedly going to be hotly contested. The game order is thus;
The map poll for the 7th and final set will be up very shortly. Whichever map wins the poll will be used in this series. As always, there will be pre-Liquibition interviews later in the week.
Liquibition #25 – ‘Rise’ is scheduled to be broadcast at 4pm EST on Sunday 21st December. That’s 20:00 CET on the 21st, or 6:00am KST on the 22nd. Tune in to see potentially one of the best PvZ series all year and yet another epic Bo7 series between two amazing players. And remember to cast your vote for the map! Because your vote will decide the final map in the series and will influence the series should we get to the 7th game! In the mean time, get amped up for another instalment of Liquibition!

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice :D Can't wait. I have a feeling dinOt will take it this time
|
i feel like dinot is less likely to win than BRAT_OK, but maybe he's improved his zvp =]
here's hoping!
|
|
|
Can anyone dethrone jf at this stage?
|
Sweet! I love both JF and DinOt. Throw in an interesting mix of maps and this should be a great Liquibition.
I'd love to see Neo Harmony or RoV as 7th. Looks like RoV is off to an early lead. 
|
YESSS
More liquibition is definitely a good thing. I love Sunday afternoon distraction.
|
Go DinOt get your revenge! For the swarm!
|
|
|
NICE! I was kinda sad after watching the replays of #24
But yeah! Do this more often!
Dinot is really awesome, hopefully the Chilean will make some spicy chili to distract JF from eating his hamburgers.
I think Dinot will make some really interesting BO's and some close games.
JF will probably win though. He's on fire.
|
JF will win I guess, unless Dinto has been doing some crazy smurfing on iccup  Looking forward to this, so gl to both players and I would also really like to have Chill there as a commentator, his voice is just so hawt!

|

|
This is going to be so easy for JF, imo.
|

Pisco is in peru?

Rooting for the underdog here. =)
Is there any reason why Idra didn't get a chance to defend his title? Everyone else did and I'd think you could have scheduled around his practice times if that was after he moved to Korea.
|
awsome! i was never here when the other episodes of liquibition were taking place or w\e but this Liquibition thing is really awsome. It actually gives me something to do other than have no life by playing iccup

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisco
In modern times, it continues to be produced in winemaking regions of Peru and Chile. The drink is a widely consumed spirit in the nations of Bolivia, Chile and Peru. The right to produce and promote pisco has been the matter of legal disputes between Chile and Peru, both of which hold their most iconic cocktail to be the pisco sour.

I think he was moving to Korea right around the time of the next Liquibition.

dinot is amazing zvz and great zvt but his zvp is garbage this will be a rape
|
I HOPE ONE OF THESE GUYS PULLS A WOMBO COMBO
|
|
|
I wanna see Jianfei's PvZ
|
This will be great! I want to see someone knock JF off the pedestal but frankly, I don't see that happening, JF seems like he's on fire!
|
Man, JF is crazy hot right now but i hope DinOt can give us some good matches, I would actually like to see him win... How old is he again?
|
W00T! It will be nice to finally see some zerg.
|
|
|
I tried streaming the JF vs Brat_OK match using all of the tools suggested above on my mac, but all to no avail. Was wondering if anyone else with a mac could help me out in streaming these live games. Thanks in advance.
|
Try VLC, there should be a mac version.
