Agreed. Unfortunately the teams had scheduling conflicts and we can't do anything about scheduling amongst teams...unless we're as awesome as the CSL pre-arranges/pre-fixes times for their wars (which is actually kinda smart) lol
|
Is this being played tonight now, or when?
|
Word on the street is that It will now be sometime Sunday. I will edit the OP when the exact time is known.
|
This looks really good. I think it will come down to how root's top players do
|
This clan war is now scheduled for 10pm EST on Sunday. Fingers crossed something random doesn't happen to prevent it (Like WW3)
|
haha 128 for fnatic 128 for root, I will be the deciding vote!

ROOT Statement:
Fnatic and root are quite clearly in my eyes the best two teams in north america, also we're all pretty good friends, so im really excited to battle like william wallace
Fnatic Statement:
After a long season, we've come to this.. we're total 1-1 against Root, and I guess we're both considered the "top" teams in the NA server, so it should be a great match. Root is an awesome team with a bunch of really strong players like KiWiKaKi, Qxc, and Drewbie ... it won't be easy but I hope we'll be lucky enough to win the match tonight. GLGL!

Those are the teams overall roster. Not the line-up they are using for the CW.

Sen playing Protoss? I have a feeling forcefields will be involved... lol
|
ahaha.
Baller sen , playing as Protoss.
|
|
|
In base gateway ala MC.
Drewbie defends it properly though.
|
I'm a fan of Root, but no matter how this turns out, Sen is an enormous badass.
|
excellent timing attack by drewbie.
Brings the worker count even.
|
Drewbie comes back from the dead.Take sout Sen.Sen getting a bit Overconfident playing as Protoss.
Final match now.

Wtf Gretorp! No that was going to be AMAZING! Terrible terrible timing
|
|
|
Gretorp was going to win. No replay plz -_-
|
Gretorp with Bnet 2.0 fail
Pings out with 3 Blue flame Hellions in Drewbies Base.
Epic Epic Bnet fail.
|
|
|
gretorp had an expo and 3 blue flame hellions in the base...
|
|
|
There was no way Drewbie could have saved himself. 3 blue flame hellions with more rallied in his base vs 0 units. Siiigghhh.
|
Can't give free win for game 7 of finals. Also could be argued the lead was gained during lag.
|
|
|
bnet ftw...2 drops for gre >_<
|
PLease update results guys!!
|
Goddammit, Bnet2.0. Really?
|
can't have an SGL finals without some controversy
game 7 is live again

we got robbed tonight, gg's Root ... not really any fault of theirs, really poor administrating . in ANY league in existence, disc rules are that a significant advantage == win. gretorp won that game.

you couldn't call that game 100% over and drewbie didn't disc duran, andre did, does suck for you, drewbie was also ahead 2nd game, not quite as much as gretorp was but we replayed that as well.
if sen had dropped the game where he lost to not sieging his tank, it would've been a regame and i could say qxc had a huge clear advantage, as a matter of fact, if he sieged his tank or left his other tank and 4 marines at the base it was essentially 100% over. But qxc had a big mistake not to siege his tank and sen ended up winning, that's the reason you can't count someone out just because, players make mistakes. Same thing happened to payam at MLG, even TL admited he was ahead, we all thought payam had that game, but u can't just assume that an 80 or even 90 or 95% chances to win a game is gonna translate into a win.
edit: Gg's btw, im looking forward to many more rematches and finals against you guys, our love will never die anyways, nomsayin?
|
It would have been poor administrating from them if they had told Drewbie he had lost because Gretorp disconnect as well. If league admins start giving default win to everyone who's at an advantage when they disc then anyone can pull the plug when they are ahead and demand a default win.

Yup I agree. Its a lose/lose as one side will be happy while the other is not. Blame Gretorps connection or battle.net but the admins imo made the correct decision just hope it doesn't happen again but curse almost whenever there's a big final there has to be problems T_T
|
I said andre disced !
I know its not a fault of yours! hope to see you in the final next season
|
For the first game, according to what I read Gretorp type on the stream, it wasn't his fault that he disconnected. B.net dropped him, for whatever reason we don't know. But he did say he was still on skype after he dropped from b.net, which should mean that his internet didn't drop.
It sucks because he had quite a lead with hellions in Drewbie's base and an expansion finished.
|
It's just one of the downsides to not having LAN [along with many other things]. But hey, it happens, if you DC you should get a loss. It happens, we all mvoe on.
|
Xeris can I get some of what you're smoking please? I don't know any league where when players have the same number of workers, 1 player ( me ) has a big tech advantage ( i was making a tank and a banshee, and gretorp had nothing to deal with cloak ) and the other player has a faster expansion. Are you saying that because gretorp had 2 hellions (50 and 24 hp) in my base, and i had units still........ hellion and a marine and i was repairing the hellion, I also had a medvac. You are delusional if you really think that gretorp had that game 100% won.
Which leagues exactly has the disconnecting player ever been awarded a win like this? LOL
Even if I disconnected, it would have been a re-game, there was no significant advantage, there was a potential for gretorp to kill a few workers if I totally didnt micro, but saying that the game was won already is pretty freaking BM. You do know that the rules clearly state I could have taken a freewin because of the disconnect, and then Gretorp disconnected AGAIN in the 2nd game when I had as much as an advantage that he had over me in the first game, and again we replay the match.
Really not impressed with your crying about this, also Kawaiirice flaming ROOT and SGL on his stream ATM, really nice.

In what fantasy land does LAN mode have anything to do with an online competition?
Shitty situation however, B.net 2.0 wins another tournament.

I didn't watch the whole thing, but how do we know this was bnet 0.2's fault and not bad internet connections O_o.

gretorp was still on skype while his client crashed. bnet -> crash. skype -> fine. internet -> fine.

that was for the first game, he dc'd altogether for the 2nd.

Congratulations on the wins today ROOT Gaming!
|
Grats ROOT! Two big wins today.
GJ to fanatic for giving us a great 7 game series. Really entertaining to watch.
|
Come on, Drewbie was so mannered. Gretorp dropped out twice and they were mannered enough to allow a third re-game.
As far as the blue flame hellions in game one - I doubt this was a game winner and Drewbie was a bit ahead in tech vs just finished expo for Gretorp. Even if it was an advantage, Gretorp dropping out before materializing it certainly does not qualify as a win. We've seen blue flame helions in bases multiple times and this does not decide the game in many, many games. So do not dis an otherwise great clan tournament game because of this.
Great games by all players and do it again guys soon (the clan war thing)
|
Will the VODs be up soon? The event wasn't on the TL Calendar so by the time I realized it was live, I tuned in to find gretorp in an impossible situation against drewbie.
|
|
|
Great series. I hope both teams can at least be happy they entertained the many people who watched. Congrats to both teams.
|
all skeptical. drewbie won where it mattered, just a shame for that series of events to happen.
congrats root.
|
Honestly like here at SGL we haven't had the smoothest year when it came to things earlier on. But based on what happened in the finals, I don't think anyone has any right to flame SGL. The decision was completely correct based on what happened. GG's on to the next season, congrats ROOT and fnatic for a nice series and a good season.
|
will there be vods =)
and what was the final score
|
root won it 4-3 in an overall good match , sucks that there are bnet issues though T_T !

wow close match. gj root.

I would like to thank iCCup for shoutcasting and streaming the grand final! You can find the battle report here. They will be casting the SGL exclusively next season so you will be seeing a lot more of them!
I cant thank them enough! Special thanks to our sponsors ]Bigfoot Networks, ZOWIE GEAR, and ItsGosu.com for the support they have given us this season. I encourage everyone to support these companies as they have given the SGL a lot of support over the months!
After the SGL Grand Finals I did some interviews, first being with ROOT.Catz, the owner of ROOT Gaming who started off their clan war against FnaticMSI. TT1. I asked them a few questions about the clan war. Here is my interview with Catz:
SGL:
Hi Catz and congratulations on winning the SGL season 1! How do you feel about how your players performed during this clan war? Catz: Aside from myself, they all did good in this match so obviously I'm very happy/proud. SGL:
Yes and with this win you will be taking home $200 dollars and four ZOWIE HAMMERS for your team. What were your thoughts coming in to the war? Were you expecting a close victory?Catz: Yes, out of of all teams we could have faced Fnatic is by far our biggest competition, so I was expecting a close score, but i was hoping for a 4-2 or 4-1, I think qxc should've/could've won that game vs sen on Delta. SGL:
With SGL Season 2 coming up how do you feel about the new teams participating? Do you see ROOT having trouble taking another season of the SGL?Catz: I think our biggest threat will still be FnaticMSI, they have a fantastic roster, losing to anyone else I'd consider a blunder.
I also got the chance to talk with FnaticMSI.SeN after he took two maps against ROOT during this clan war. Here's what he had to say after the match:
SGL:
Hello Sen thanks for your time today! Your team FnaticMSI just placed 2nd in the SGL losing to ROOT 3-4. You took two out of your team's 3 maps in the clan war. How do you feel about your performace today?
SeN:
It's disappointing that Gretorp and I couldn't win the last match for Fnatic. My performance vs. KiWiKaKi was good for me. And about vs. Qxc Delta Quadrants is so imbalanced for terran I just went cheese and I succeeded. About the last match vs. Drewbie I should have won after I got such a good income compared to him I had like 30 probes and he had only 18 or 19. I will try to improve my protoss in the future once for when I play on that map again.
SGL:
I noticed after Drewbie picked Steppes for his match against you, you picked protoss. Was there any specific purpose to that?
SeN:
I dont have any specific purpose other than the fact that that map is too imba for ZvT and I always play protoss for fun when I practice on the korean ladder so my protoss isn't so bad in my eyes ^^ and sentry is imba! I got sentry I win!
SGL:
Thanks for the interview Sen! Good luck in GSL next season do you have anything else to add?
SeN:
<3 to anyone who supports me
Once again congratulations to ROOT for winning the league and we hope to see both of you in the finals again next season! Now for the league awards!
A few weeks ago I asked around and got votes for the following awards:
Most Valuable Player: The player who accomplished the most in the SGL and made the biggest difference in clan wars.
Most Improved Player: The player who improved the most while in season one of the SGL.
Most Valuable Manager: The manager who was the most organized, mannered, and all around great for a team in the SGL.
'Funnest' Team: The team who everyone enjoyed playing against the most.
The winner of the MVP award blew everyone out of the water. He received the most votes by a landslide and the winner is FnaticMSI's TT1. After dominating teams all season long he received the most votes and is crowned SGL Season 1's Most Valuable Player.
The winner for the MIP I couldn't agree with more. I saw this player grow from the first day I saw him play and he has been all-killing teams ever since then. He is the Zerg player from Evil Geniuses, StrifeCro! His most recent accomplishments have been very impressive which include coming in 2nd in the BigFoot Network's SGL Pre-Playoff Invitational!
The MVM was the closest running for the votes. There were a lot of great managers this season and the votes were all very close. But the manager who came out on top was rSGaming's Vhalin! He handled himself with manner and class right to the very end and we wish him and his team good luck in the season two qualifiers!
The 'Funnest Team' award goes to one of the teams who have already qualified for the season two. So you will be experiencing more 'fun' coming your way! The team who received the most votes for this category was Evil Geniuses. With classy players and management this team stood above the rest and represented themselves very well this season. I wish you guys the best of luck for upcoming seasons in not only the SGL but other clan leagues you're partaking in.
With all that out of the way I am VERY happy that season one is over. We went through a lot of ups and downs and it's all finally coming to a close. I certainly hope things will run more smoothly next season but life is unpredictable. I hope everyone has enjoyed this season as much as I did and I hope we can only improve for the future. I would like to thank the SGL staff for all the hard work they did this season because without the people who help voluntarily we would never have gotten this far. The league is always growing and I hope we can become the most superior SC2 league that eSports has to offer.

Good stuff!
Any plans on increasing the prize pool? $200 for the level of talent in this league is shamefully low (I know that isn't your fault, I'm just stating a fact). Best of luck to everyone in season 2, going to watch VODs.

We are looking at increasing the prize money for season 2 to about $500 for 1st place.
