First of all, a big thanks to kellyMILKIES for setting this up, and for LiquidRet for being so awesome to play in this =)
I picked the All Star SEA team, selected from whom in my opinion are the 4 Best players in SEA at the moment. There is a 5th spot up for grabs in the team and that spot will go the winner of Community Open #7 (12th January) . Update: tGcBosser took down the 128 man tourney.
How will the best of SEA do against Starcraft Legend and Starcraft 2 Top 32 GSL 3 LiquidRet?!
Time: Sunday, 23rd January 2011, 12NOON SGT, 1PM KST Live casting: kellyMILKIES & Unstable. http://www.justin.tv/kellymilkies
SEA All-Star Team: 1) mOOnGLaDe (SEA's greatest hope) 2) Kowi (Topped the NA top 200 list 2 weeks ago) 3) YoonYJ (Topped the SEA top 200 list for basically 2 months) 4) OxygeN (Won the recent SSL (Biggest Singapore lan compy last week) ) 5) tGcBosser (winner of co#7)
Reserve (if anyone SEA doesnt show) 1) JesseTheKing (winner of co#8)
-All games will be Bo3s. So 5 sets of Bo3s. -Games will be on SEA unless Ret lags, then it will be on KR.
+ Show Spoiler [FAQ] +Why is sc2sea's logo a horse as well?It isn't a horse. Since we are the SEA server, and TL uses a horse, someone thought it would be a good idea to have a SEAhorse as our logo, which is a cool way to pay tribute to TL the best sc2 site in the world - the place where most of us started and still visit. If im from NA can i sign up for the CO qualification tourney?Nope, its only open to players who have an SEA account, as the tournament will be held on SEA. How many games will be played?LiquidRet will play a best of 3 with each of the 5 players. At the end the score will be tabluated in sets won. So for e.g SEA All-Stars 3 : LiquidRet 2 !! What time will it be in my country?Find the exact time in your country hereCommon SEA times - Sunday Singapore/Malaysia: 12 noon Korea: 1pm Sydney: 3pm NZ: 5pm. For America it will be a day earlier Saturday anywhere from 7pm to 11pm. Will there be replays released?Yes, we will have all replays released, only unless a specific player requests not to release his set of games. (Unlikely)

should be great :D
i wish Legionare would start playing SCII
|
So am I to understand.. if moonglade beats ret.. it's all finished? 
I look forward to said event!
(that was a joke.. I assume they all play ret?)

might need to put a url link to sc2sea.com or the sign up thread. I see the url address but just for convenience for others i guess.

Nice site btw.

SEA server home advantage should count for a bit, too - especially for the Singapore players as their latency will be much lower than everyone else.

Hopefully we get some interesting play, and not games that end under 10 minutes. coughoxygencough
Reps will be released from what's been said, to the person above me.

Yeap there will. I might ask Kowi for a replay pack of his ladder games as well, he seems so popular!
|
Sounds great guys, love the activeness in the Aussie and SEA SC2 scene at the moment, keep up the great work!
|
HuK and I tested KR <-> SEA a few weeks back and he said the latency is great so hopefully you guys don't have any problems.
|
Isn't Kowi the cheeser that proxys a lot?

I think he is. I saw him on drewbie's stream once and he said he always cheesed him. I think moonglade has the best shot at winning which isn't too surprising.
|
I think Kowi has the highest chance because he is a Protoss player and is unorthodox. That being said Ret's ZvZ is actually very good despite his 2-1 loss to Cezanne. He beat Zenio who beat Fruitdealer o.O
|
More popularity for SEA/ANZ's the way to go. We should do more showmatches like this more often.

gogo mOOnGlaDe!
He has a beast ZvZ from what I've seen on his stream.
|
lol kowi ret better prepare for proxy 2 gate and dts
|
YoonYJ needs some love here too. White guy playing in korea vs korean playing from downunder. It's going to be epic. Also YJ should be baked when he's playing as well. So the tables should be evened, ret should down 2 bottles of soju for YJs game, imo.

Is that leonardo dicaprio in the 5th pic?
This should be fun to watch tho I expect Ret to roll. His biggest problem will be Moonglade who is a good player and is Zerg, with ZvZ being Ret's worst MU.

You don't suck at ZvZ and beat Zenio.

Is there a prize involved in this ? What are you looking to prove by this tourney? Ill try my best to enter the community open ! :D

I'd assume he was reffering to the last spot.

Whenever and wherever the gauntlet is thrown down; Team Liquid is there to pick it up! Good Luck guys!

An unexpected but hard fought and fair victory!
tGsBosser is the champion of CO7 and will fill up the last spot in the SEA All-Star Team vs Ret.
Well played sir!
|
tGcBosseR has won the sc2sea Community Open #7, and will be joining mOOnGLaDe, YoonYoJun, Kowi and OxygeN to face LiquidRet on the 23rd 
Congratulations and we're all looking forward to this show match ^_^
|
congrats tGcBosseR and good luck

By popular request, Kowi replay pack out! Includes games vs Minigun, tyler, piqliq
http://www.sc2sea.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=160
Also, all players have reconfirmed participation this sunday! JesseTheKing winner of latest CO tonight has agreed to be on the reserves if any of the players dont show.
Expect a great showmatch!
|
Ret will kill them all, I will watch this. Very cool contribution.
|
sea lineup is really good.
|
R you guys hype for this or what!
|
Oh thank you, i'll be stuck in a foreign city for work (cincinnati) with nothing to do saturday night, this is perfect!
|
Not gonna lie, I watched some of Kelly's other casts and she literally talks over the other caster and interrupts them almost every time they start to talk.
I really hope she doesn't do this during the event because it is very annoying and rude imo.
Other than that, I can't wait to watch this event.
|
Should be a good thing for the SEA community and Australia, hopefully esports will grow a bit more than it has.
... Ret has a lot of games to play

Im pretty sure Big Kev is no longer with us 
As much as i love Ret i am hoping SEA has some sort of awesome showing.. mOOnglade is pretty baller :D
|
11 hours to kick off!
SEA blizzard invitational champ RedArchon will also play some part in the fixture should one of our players not make it.
|
When i saw the thread title i got hyped thinking Ret was gonna play Sea[Shield] . Oh well this isn't half bad either .
|
ret should get paid. I wish I had money to give! This is going to be epic.
|
Ret macro incoming ! 7 hours at least .
|
No nGenEclipse?
|
Hopefully it doesn't really cut too much into GSL's time, otherwise I'd be stuck on deciding what to watch.

Wow.
That is.... the messiest banner I have ever seen. :D

Dunno, I only know 'her' from her SC2 casting, but I think so... Kelly-milkies, now calling herself "Kellycraft" (original).
If I'm guessing right... She casted the TA Invitational and is doing the SEA Intel Extreme Masters SC2 and I think the RET vs SEA players as well...

yeah i was watching the IEM quals and i had to close the window after a few minutes, didnt really feel like her casting was very professional.. Im sure we have better and more experienced casters in SEA.. thought HD Phoenix wasnt bad though....
|
I dunno wat you guys are on about! KELLY=AWESOME. End of story...
|
Kelly was a joke seriously. The whole IEM casting was ruined because of her and her laggy computer and unprofessionalism. HD pheonix was atleast decent.
|
Ret has to be one of the most charming people to play the game. He's a super hero for sure!

Is HDpheonix from singapore? I do not think so.anyway why is nirvana not playing... He is my favourite singaporean playing

At least it should run smoother. :D
But hey its Ret playing so im gonna watch either way, but some more fps would be nice.
When 200 vs 200 supply will battle i fear the stream will die :D

Stream is okay, but quality is a bit low. Kinda dark, especially when viewing over creep.

Stream is pretty horrible IMO. Lag every 15 seconds.

What amuses me more is the criticism of ret's play as he plays perfectly.
|
Haha Kelly has no idea what FPS lag is.
EDIT: I believe the lag is coming from unstable's (lol) computer itself.
|
The FPS lag isn't even the big problem, at least not for me. It's just normally lagging every 2-3 seconds. Or am I not understanding what FPS lag is right?
|
Where are the brackets for this?
|
No brackets, just Ret playing a Bo3 against all the people in the OP.
|
man it' sjust making me sad/angry to even listen to this guy..
|
oooh. What's the results so far?
|
lol that's an IdrA GG.
Seems like Ret wanted to gg early from the start though. He saw the factory and tanks and dropships. Maybe he want to get everything over and done with before Jinro plays.
|
The only thing that makes any sense to me is that Ret wanted to get super fast overlord drop upgrade but screwed it up, he got the speed upgrade just in time for the drop but only just started the drop upgrade.
Otherwise I have no idea why he would quit that early.

Because he was completely unprepared for it when it came? I didn't follow the game closely before that, but it looked like Ret was preparing for Thor drop, which is the normal thing to except when you see a tech lab factory. You can't fight a tank drop with roaches.

no kidding.....

I was unprepared because i KNEW this would happen which is why it was agreed i wouldn't be streaming a few days ago but now i have no choice. as kelly cant stream. So of course im going to be annoyed when theres no way to fix the issue yet i haveto stream anyway and cop constant crap for something i have no control over

"sea's" greatest hope got destroyed... the first terran which was oxygen? in metalopolis had pretty good macro and chance to win but didn't engage properly imo
|
Games had to be changed to Bo1 because of GSL
Thank you to everyone for playing in this! We might have more SEA AllStars vs Progamer matches in the future!
