I hope they make it to the finals just for the lulz (and also because WhiteRa is the man). Where is Dimaga?!

Also, if Goody is in good shape this event will take like double the planned time, since he never attacks in TvT and all his TvT's are like 30+ minutes :D | ||

From a purely spectator point of view the lack of Protoss players are good news but some Zergs would make up for good esports. Sadly I doubt people will watch these games due to all the mirrors, but they should be really entertaining. TvT is IMO the second most entertaining MU spectator-wise after TvZ. | ||

PvT and PvZ both are excellent match ups for the spectators imo. Especially in the foreigner scene where we see a fair amount of macro games. | ||

TvT requires very little micro compared to other match-ups. You are probably confusing micro with positional play. For me as a protoss player I usually prefer PvP to TvT....simply because TvT can take so long with everyone just macro-ing up and no action whatsoever. Although PvPs are a pain to play, watching the hilarity of PvP can be quite funny, at least it is to me. | ||

"Unfortunately TheLittleOne won't be able to attend the European Championship Finals in Kiev as a co-caster after all. He is very sick and doesn't feel able to cast the event. So RotterdaM will pick some of the attending 12 players to give you the best viewers experience possible." (source: http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/kiev/news/147414/No-TLO-in-Kiev/ ) The shedule is online already: http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/kiev/schedule/ I dont think that its complete yet, because i couldnt find a link on the esl page, but had to type it in manually. SC2 coverage should be quite good, as theres an "ESL TV SC2" stream. | ||
