Works great in BW.

Does VP know enough what's going on? I'd imagine is the designers and people lower that are more aware of the map problem. I doubt he even know which are official Blizzard maps.

Watching SC2 on these new bigger maps is such a delight. I've started to really get bored of watching the game lately however tonights finals turned that all around. These new maps actually make it worth watching again. Seeing more than just some gimmicky timing push after timing push was really refreshing.

There needs to be a full winners league with all teams playing each other twice and the top four going to the finals next Team League, this was just so EPIC.

Ye in the current Gom format team and individual leagues running at the same time wouldn't work out. If they delay everything out and let leagues run like 3 months like in broodwar it works, but thats a whole different format.

squirtle made a huge mistake teching immortal, should go carriers vs that many tanks

Erm.. Immortals > tanks if i recall?

not if your opponent has 8> tanks, they can spread out and take down the sheilds in one volley. artosis said it already in an earlier game


artosis is wrong, as this game has obviously shown

LOL what?

I wish Liquid could play in the GSTL.

But seriously, this format is much better than the normal GSL, somehow Teams make you feel more attached.


In theory they can if in the next GSL season they can surpass ZENEX, or was it Slayers? Liquid is 9th in team ranking, if they can get into 8th place they technically qualify to participate, though with only so many players I'm not sure how that will work. They might just stay as a support for oGs.


Would be absolutely awesome to see liquid but do they have enough players to compete..


They don't, considering a Best of 9 series would require at least a minimum of five available players.

No BW was much better when there wasn't two proleague matches every single day.

Back then you can follow every single game, now its just a mass of games.

probably because they don't rely on a distributed viewer base like sc2 does. i can say with a degree of confidence that gom is more concerned with foreign audience as it has caught on much more so than domestic. bw can have lots of events in the evening because it's not strenuous to watch lots of games when it's on TV in your home. getting up early or going to sleep late like american and european viewers do would be tiring after a while, again, imho.

We learn that IMmvp is not invincible, Bomber almost took him out, and Squirtle had to do a huge intense freaking macrogame win over IMmvp.
And woah after his loss, he just keep smiling, not even having regrets, just having fun. This is IM! having fun!
It was an amazing grand finals, ST did their best, IM had rather a heavy bumby ride before wining.
Thanks gomtv, thanks Artosis and Tasteless. IT WAS EPIC!!!!!!!!

It wouldn't be hard for them to fly out Tyler and TLO for a 3 day tournament...
