Hmmm no stream appearing for me - I've used octoshape for WC3 before but it always prompted me to install it. Do I have to install before I can see the stream at all now? It's just an empty square.
|
omg, semi dimaga vs lucifron tt. this should be the final...
€: restart your octoshape plugin.
|
for me is the site with the streams just down. nothing new, cause esl fails always in streams...

Nice! That's just perfect in time for when my pizza arrives
Btw actually wouldn't mind paying a bit for an English cast..
|
btw. the mods suspect, that its sarens playing on bensens account, but arent positive
|
worst cast/stream EVER
too bad we have to see this for such a decent tournament 
|
Don't whine bout quality, you can pay and get HD stream. For free, this one is okey.
Go Hasu, GO!

Hasuobs's style is so sexy
I'm becoming more of a fan with every game!
|
So Luci vs Dimaga is next?
|
he wrote that his fail proves that he is in fact bensen and not sarens or another french terran playing on his account...
|
|
|
i heard bensen is zerg, why did he play terran then?
|
he said he got bored of zerg
|
Luci vs Dimaga started!
Btw, finals, bo3 or bo5? Can't find nowhere that info.

I don't mind the quality, i understand they ask us to pay a small fee to be able to watch it in better quality.
The thing that bothers me the most is they want to be an international website with international tournaments, but fail to provide a stream in an INTERNATIONAL language(a thing they may want to consider for the future).

ESL and ESL TV are separate things, not so sure if ESL TV wants to be only international

sick harass by luci
followed by throwing away advantage by going out with small force and no siege and medivacs
|
|
|
you don't upgrade in wc3?
|
|
|
Was kind of confused by Lucifrons opening with both reapers and hellions and by Dimaga not having antiair by the time those Banshees arived. Turned out to be an epic game in the end though.
|
Pardon me but Dimaga lost his left 2nd natural at least twice. Wouldn't it be more cost effective to make a Nydus to the top left island instead? Then Luci would have to drop or use banshee and even if he did take down the defence all the drones could quickly be safely transfered back for rinse and repeat.
|
Why didnt lucifron follow up his harass. Was huge misstake to not scout his rocks=[
|
Fuck me, lucifron fucking owns! that bunker block on ramp was genius
|
wow they want to remake although the game was over.
Dimaga lost his expo and stacked his min up to 500min when cancelling.
He did start a hidden expo, but for the small chance it did no get scoutet in time it would have taken alot of time to saturate it by iteself.
|
what are they saying? will lucifron get that disc as win?
|
Lol there was a disc the same time my computer crashed?
|
They will rmk..... absolutely the wrong decision! FOr gods sake dimaga lost his expo to the bunker rush. The hidden expo that started was good nothing....ah update, luci got his win after all. Seems so the boss of the commentators decided right.

Should only regame if lucifron wants to. He played brillant that game so far and would most likely won it. Dimaga could be disconecting on purpose for all we know, he cheated in TSL...

are u kidding me zerg losing expo never ends a game, and canceling means absolutely nothing.
Look at the game on desert oasis and how long dimaga managed to hold even despite losing much more then some minerals on canceling.
|
hahaha, Dimaga got a phonecall that made his network break down !
Dimaga was hacked by a phonecall !
|
Ofc the game was not over, i am just saying that luci had an advantage and seeing that it was dimaga who disced i would have given the win too.
edit: sry for double post
|
luci's advantage was miniscule. definitely nothing to decide the game on.
|
but i definitely dont hold this against the organizers, in a new game like that it definitely is easy to make a wrong judgement call.
|
Feels like Lucifrons strats are always either centered around catching his opponent of guard or out microing his opponent in an early battle. Even though I'm a terran player I really dislike his style of play. Not that I like HasuObs play that much but I hope he wins the final.

For all we know it mightve been Lucifron calling dimaga!

Not only did he cancel but he had to bring allmost all his drones to fend of the bunkers, and that failed. Dimaga was behind, but how much we cant tell since we didnt see them look at lucifron's base.
I guess they checked out the replay and saw that it was infact over, good decision.
|
Thing also was that after the cancel of the hatchery he was at over 500min although he went attack bunkers with 6-7 drones, so yea i think he was behind,
|
what the fuck are you guys talking about.
Minerals=good.
No minerals= bad
Defending bunkers with drones doesnt decide games.
They did show luci's base but i dont know what exactly you expect to see there that would decide the game.

Did you get a good look at lucifrons base , and both their mineral worker count?
Had expo been scouted it would been 100% over, getting that expand saturated would taken shitloads of time. Lucifron had him bunkered in. Game was by far in lucifrons favor, how much we'll see if they release replay.
|
look like LT is really toss favored now, hasuobs don't stop to suprise me
|
Hasu vs. Luci game 1 is cool so far!
|
|
|
go hasu!!
|
|
|
Hasuobs playing real good, lucifron made alot of misstakes that game though. Lucifron should gone for ghosts instead of his airforceone.
|
|
|
Nice strat by HasoObs in the second game. Blinking stalkers into Lucifrons main while blocking his own ramp with force fields.
|
wow lucifron got straight up outplayed in that second game =/
|

He picked his strat poorly. There's way too much room to maneuver on that map for Terran, the low-mobility race, to be FEing

FE was fine, his push was just a terrible decision, I dun think that he knew that protoss could go for such aggressive blink strat on the map
|
What is HasuObs thinking in this game? Wall himself into one base and tech and let Lucifron expand allover the map while having his natural denied? Is the map that hard to grab an expantion on in PvT?
|
i think hasuobs maybe had to break the rock for be able to do something
|
I think we need a thread about terran army diversity...
|
I think hasu needed a robotics facility faster. That fast expo build is pretty vulnerable to 1 gate robotics
|
i love how they're pronouncing marauders like a french word maraudeur

the marauder go is pretty hard to stop it seems

Go go Lucifron
Well, it seems he is in quite good shape even after leaving MyM
|
blizz really need to look on marauder they are so strong
|
Wow, One Match worth 500 Euro
|
gz lucifron! now blizz should look at marauders, nobody makes marines anymore:p
|
3-2 to Lucifron. Wow his games are boring to watch

Or P players really need to look on building robo after first gate instead of waiting for so long like HasuObs did this game
But i agree that there is no reason to build rines over marauders and that is wrong
|
ye, its same strat every single game. Win with stimmed marauders.
|
If there was 500 euro on the line and I knew i could win with just going marauders I'd do it every game too.
I'd be surprised if the marauders isnt subjected to any changes in the next patch because there is just no reason not to get them and only them as long as you are fighting any form of ground based army.
|
Maybe Blizz can encourage more mech units by making it so the marauder's slowing effect is an armoury tech that has to be researched.
|
it should be 200/200 tech lab imo

marauders aren't imbalanced, all you need is a sentry shield and immortal pretty much and they get toasted badly
|
3. game, hasuobs didn't even scout 1. exp, you can't not scout something like that and expect to win. He probably figured out what's going on when lucifron got 10 marauders nad locked him in his base.
4. game stalkers only again, seriously? against terran? trying to snipe cc?
forge and canons in both those games, why?
5. game, finally some immortals, but unluckily lucifron broke stones and got into his base before hasuobs managed to return because he went longer way. unlucky.
But why did hasuobs force stalkers and sentries? you can't expect to beat marauders without immortals. Stalkers and sentries are just fail against that.
maybe hasuobs practiced that and it worked, but I really can't see how. This were clear build order wins, nothing imbalanced there.

If you look at the brackets here: http://www.esl.eu/eu/sc2/go4sc2/final1/rankings/
You just click on the little 'vs' that there is for each match, and it takes you to a summary page where you will find the replays listed also.

are there going to be any vods?

Strongly strongly strongly disagree with this. By the time you get a decent number of immortals out to effectively counter marauder the Terran mixes in medivac and then Marauders are basically immortal - unless you have sufficient splash to take them out (ie storm or colossus). It's pretty ridiculous at the moment imo.
|

Can't make medivacs if you are forced to make vikings to counter the colossus ~_~
Anyway, I like Nazgul's build he used in TLI against TheLittleOne - lots of Ps have switched to this or something similiar now. It's better IMO.
|
Thanks for the feedback guys, I enjoyed all the matches last night as well!
Regarding a more international (read: Englisch) stream: We are definitely working on that for both ESL TV and also for our online cups on Saturdays via livestream.com or the like. If any shoutcaster reads this feel free to contact me via MSN (shawn@wc3l.com)!
