Yeah, true, but Artosis and Tasteless also had ZERO CLUE that Choya was banned from the GSTL when it has been common knowledge for a month and they're casting it; so they might not be able to play.

I'm really digging this team vs team style. It's a shame some players dont get to play but overall the games are way more varied than what you see in the regular GSL. Hopefully the GSL and GSTL can coexist in a good way but most importantly that they continue with this. well done on ya GOM.

so why cant the gstl be like an actual league format like proleague instead of being tournament styled?

It's the first time. I think they are just trying things out and see if people like it. Perhaps it will become one in a later season.

Also, does anyone think its a good idea to send your BEST player first? Puts less pressure on him to win many games in a row (like a reverse all-kill or something crazy), and forces your lesser players to play more on the edge if they have to play (they can't rely on MKP carrying them).

IM and OGS-TL looking very strong. Jinro gonna own :D

Turns out Alive was a pretty good choice.
Team League seems to be pretty fun, can't wait for tomorrow.

great choice considering he was only put in to dislodge polt (according to tastosis).

I loved the TvZ on Tal Darim. Shows what might be possible in this game with decent maps.

recaps:

+ Show Spoiler +

vs Check- big macro map- forget the name

Macro game. Check got way ahead because Alive didn't realize he could fit his hellions in through a gap in check's wall. Ended up with mostly roach infestor vs siege/rine/rauder. But Check made some big mistakes with micro- failed to fungal, got surrounded, did zero to protect his broodlords, etc. Alive made a kinda cool planetary fortress wall that was a non-factor. Check's expos got taken out with drops and he gg'd.

vs MKP- scrap station

Both early expo'd. MKP did an early marine push that looked scary but Alive defended with all his scvs and managed to only lose like five. From there, it was marines vs siege tanks and blue flame hellions. lolz. When Alive started taking out MKP's main MKP tried to base trade but Alive just turtled into his main. MKP took the gold on scrap though and built one million barracks after his main and natural got taken out. So he put off the inevitable for a while while flying buildings around etc but it was over at that point.

First match up was rather a disappoint. Second match up was quite interesting. I find it weird that oGs and TL can compete together in the GSTL. I know they practice together and all but they still are separate teams.

due to tl's peculiar situation I think they are able to make an exception for them, or there is some sort of clause in the rules that applies and makes it possible.

Could be since TeamLiquid has only 7 players if I'm not mistaken so they wouldn't be able to ever play since you need a 8 man team.
