TLopen final rounds are always casted from replays so the results can't be doubted. But the replays are casted "live" just after game finish so it doesn't change anything for us, mere viewers.

all I get from IcCup.tv is google ads atm

Well, on the one hand I can understand that they fear cheating. On the other hand, eSports can only become bigger with allowing viewers in. There must be a clear direction what they want SC2 to be.

I confirm Kawai vs a protoss is on ICCUP right now.

would've been ok if he immediatly objected i guess... but doing it after he lost would be kinda stupid
the players should inform themselves about the tournament rules and the mappol beforehand :|

they actually do cast the games off replays afterwards before announcing the results, at least from the semi finals onwards i think...

Legitimacy should be first and foremost and I applaud TL for the continued stance on the matter. When people find a way for casters to not lag and cast live w/ enough of a delay to avoid any cheating then I imagine it would be implemented. Until that time avoiding possible cheating is more important.

Most people didn't knew that that was casted from replay and didn't even noticed it, there is no difference.

I just realized the upper side of the bracket is pretty stacked while the lower should be pretty straightup.

Dde vs. TLO on RageQuit.TV now!
|
My predictions are: TLO will lose coz he's always playing to have fun. Very nice to watch, but you can barely win tournaments with random races and fun play. I like him, but that's about it.

Actually he picks Terran in him versus T. Because he can win better. My prediction: TLO qualifies today.

Yeah, Kiwi should pwn lower side, but the upper is hard, poor Kawai and Fenix will fight each other next round...In fact Fenix is vs Darkforce so he could lose, I love Kawai vZ so I'll root for darkforce =)

Wow! Game 1 was so onesided! TLO 1-0 dde
