All the criticism is plenty warranted.
I haven't played any games in the past 4+ weeks except for tournaments/invitationals. Finals and a lot of real life bullshit.
PvT is definitely my worst matchup by far, but how I played was just inexcusable. When you can't decide on a build or much less stick with one you know you're in a pretty bad spot.

I think Incontrol had a several day hangover.

It's so annoying how terran can just stim and a-move. Collosus are so fragile :/

Congrats Stalife on making it to tomorrow's semi-finals. Better luck next time Geoff, well try nonetheless.

Don't think so. The smacktalk in games kind of annoys me, it doesn't seem to really fit with a tournament atmosphere. That said, I fully agree with the observation that the Korean BW/SC2 stars come across as lacking any sort of personality whatsoever. Yet I think post-match interviews/other areas (i.e. not ingame) are the best way to get personality into the scene. Talk/banter during the game looks like people aren't concentrating (though obviously that's not necessarily true) but that does make it seem less 'professional'. Sorry for the mini-rant!
Good games so far, sad to see iNc go out like that, but both players played pretty well. Also the TvT was very exciting for a mirror!

i think the horse gods are punishing him

The studio setup is totally legit, really digging that. Very good looking broadcast overall, I'm very impressed.
Sucks that iNcontroL lost, well played though by stalife.

Game 1! Potential to be so exciting! Always good to see unorthodox play. Unlucky with the games/tourney

I actually do agree that chatting in game makes it seem like the players aren't giving the game their total concentration. However, if there was actual bad blood between players, the drama the chatting would add would be well worth that cost.

I'm getting a sneaky feeling that we'll have 4 terrans in the semis. I hope slush will prove me wrong.

I don't typically root for Terran players, but I really like PainUser even if he's totally wrong in the Banshee/DT debate.

Why is the stream quality so low for this tourney? The TL Open tourney that aired tonight was SO impressive in its resolution quality, I don't know how they did it but every serious (non-amateur hosted) tournament should maintain that kind of quality... I feel like I'm watching a completely inferior tournament even though this is an arguably "better" tourney.
Just my thoughts on the quality aspect of tourney streaming.

Motha' fuckin' Stalife and bLuR.

Is this sarcasm or are you extremely intoxicated right now?

Just my thoughts on the quality aspect of tourney streaming. Is this sarcasm or are you extremely intoxicated right now? Ok it's not "so low" but did you see the TL open today? The quality on that stream was actually being bottlenecked by my mom's shitty computer specs it felt like, whereas this one is really grainy in comparison. Ok, it's by no means "low" objectively, but relative to what it could be, and given how sponsored it is, I think it is "low quality."
