They are actually VOD's not replays, I bet you just got a bunch of peoples hopes up

I'm not sure why people are complaining about Nadas play.. both games I thought multiple times "tester is fucked"
Game 1 he hit the timing exactly with his first push.. got there when he had only one collosus against that big marine/marauder ball. only held because of crazy forcefields
Also that contain he had with the marauder/viking.. what else could he do? I never thought that would be broken like it was. You can't actually attack into that many collosus.. it would have been the same fight but even worse because his bio would have had to clump up. He tried to rally bio in off his three bases after the fight but there were too many phoenixes left.
Even with the contain being broken he still had a gold up and a ton of shit and he added ghosts but Tester had some good drops and once you get to that point (every upgrade, warp-in storms, 4-5 collosus, tons of upgrades phoenixes) theres not much Terran can do. His macro was ridiculous all game.. towards the end he was on 5 bases at 200 food and his money was still around 400/400 from getting so many upgrades. Nada was sitting at over 3k gas :x
Game 2.. first off he starts out with the fucking terrifying banshee/raven/marine/tank push but Tester gets phoenixes so he smartly abandons it. He had another huge contain that barely got broken. Most people would not have broken that but Tester played so smart waiting to the last second to get as many immortals as possible and picking off the rallied tanks with phoenixes.

Tester V Nada was nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend it.

Also wanna know why IdrA thinks he is such a bad player. Kinda weird Oo. He's not a bad player, but from the games he played, he didn't show any stroke of brilliance other than in ZvZ where he claims he is a specialist. He just happened to win. On the other hand, when players watch Fruitdealer, they go "Wow".
Well, I don't entirely agree, I think NesTea is an awesome player Was just wondering if IdrA had a particular reason for his BM, but there doesn't seem to be.
The vods are usually up on sc2.plu.cn a while after most gomTV events. I checked now and don't think they're uploaded, even though the game names are there. I'm also finding the vods a lot easier to use these days, they actually load/buffer properly and quickly, even though the quality is bad (but it's better than nothing ^^).

+ Show Spoiler +FD 2:0ed HungUnPrime
First game XelNaga, Hungun went blinkstalkers of one base while FD fast expanded and defended the rush with roaches and speedlings. FD went for a counterattack and won with speedroaches
Second game LT, HungUn went for a Fastexpansion and a doublepylonwallin at FDs choke. But FD teched to lair, and nydus wormed in the middle of HungUns base and won.

+ Show Spoiler +I didn't see Foxer vs Zenio
Hongun vs Fruitdealer was ugly. Failed blink stalker all-in on Xel'naga and he tried to cannon contain on LT but FD just got roaches and nydus and killed him easily.
Genius v Nestea: First game was weird. Stream came in late but it looked like a failed 6 pool on steps (Genius had a pylon completely walling in and Nestea had very few drones). Not a very good game.
Game 2 was the best game. Fairly back and forth game its worth watching
Game 3 Nestea tries to one base roach all-in against Genius forge expanding close on metal. Horribly decisions/micro from Nestea not a very good game to watch
Both Tester/Nada games were great. Especially game one

anyone got VOD's for the matches shitty school internet screwed up my live streaming D:

why the hell ssks dont play like this on qualifiers ?

Its because in the first game especially siege tanks was the exact wrong transition. This is because in PvT Phoenix's will just lift the tanks. Thors would have been a much better transition even Thors with tanks support would have been spot on. I was surprised NaDa did not transition out of mmmv when Phoenix Colossus owns it so hard.
In the second game tester did respond very well to the tank/banshee marine push with phoenixes. Tanks are not that effective in TvP because they will get lifted by phoenixes and immortals will tank a lot of damage.

Oh man that second game of Hungun's was painful to watch. I can't believe he blocked his gateway's exit with cannons. This sucks because he's a much better player than he showed here, he played awful.
|
All the Tester games I've seen recently (these games and.. I think the TSL clan battle a while back?) were awesome to watch. I'm so sad he didn't qualify for GSL3 because the world is seriously missing out on some awesome protoss action. At least he is already S-Class!
|
anywhere where i can watch vods ?
|
It pains me to see Tester who played F**KING amazing in that match vs Nada to not qualify for GSL...
|
http://sc2rep.com/
2 of the matches are listed on there. I'm sure the others will be uploaded eventually!
|
Ugh, seeing how well Tester played here really makes me sad that he won't be in GSL3. Every time I see him play on these streams he is just incredibly solid.
|
Well he played against Nada who also didn't get into GSL3 ro64. So out of those two players who were not good enough for GSL3 ro64, he is better 
I wonder if he runs into Foxer how is he going to look.

cliiide why are you so good as a practice partner?
