Wow, great game. I really liked TLO's mech play. I think he should have probably added a little bio on there later, but really nice play by IdrA with the neural parasite. If it had finished 10 seconds later -.-

EGIdrA vs

Liquid'TLO on Shakuras Plateau! IdrA spawning at the 1 oclock position, TLO spawning at the 7 oclock - cross positions!

IdrA going hatch first, TLO going 14 CC .. what? No barracks :p

TLO drops 2 barracks after CC, spawning pool about halfway done - IdrA's drone scouts everything

IdrA responds by droning super hard and is getting speed; both players just macroing

TLO sends an scv to scout IdrA's base and sees what is going on; TLO is massing marines - IdrA just pumping lings.. Factory on the way for TLO, IdrA drone pumping SO hard! Another factory for TLO

Baneling nest dropped by IdrA; TLO really wants this mech play to work; Lair finishes, and IdrA drops the spire immediately; centrifugal hooks on the way as well, sitting on 4 gas.

Hellion, marine for TLO now pushing out towards IdrA's base; IdrA drops 2 spines at his natural; TLO trying to push in to do some damage.. One queen goes down but the spines are up; TLO spots the banelings and retreats.. Banelings speed is now done;

Hellions picking off creep tumours; TLO now getting Thors,

All 5 hellions getting surrounded by IdrA's lings, mutas on the way now.. TLO on the backfoot

IdrA and TLO taking their third at the same time; infernal preigniter on the way for TLO; +1 mech attack for TLO is done; 5 thors and 17 marines pushing out for TLO

Muta/ling/bling completely destroys TLOs ground army.. His mutas magic box and lings cleaning up; More factories, more thors, more hellions and +2 attack on the way for TLO

IdrA going drops his infestation pit and is getting carapace and melee attack upgrades; IdrA attempting some muta harass, but there are some turrest set up. IdrA takes his fourth

IdrA taking a 5th now as well; hitting his macro mode well.. Banelings moving to the smiley face base at the 6 oclock for TLO; he assaults the Planetary Fortress but the MASS repair saves it perfectly! Huge waste of banelings there.. Now the mutas slide in and the mass repair on the turrets is saving the scvs, but the mutas overpower them and take down the PF!

There is some fungal growths go down, TLO engages on creep - hellions get fungal growthed; mass surround on the units, and a magic box cleans up some units but the thors are able to prevail; TLO sieges up his tanks and begins clearing creep tumours.. TLO moving towards IdrA; who is now producing Ultras! with Level 3 melee attack and carapace.. TLO taking his fourth as well now..

IdrA producing a ridiculous amount of lings haha - Ultras out now, but is losing them one by one

TLO's mass thor army is being super effective; but IdrA is mopping up some tanks behind TLOs main army.. It is really close at the moment.. TLO only dropping a starport at the 20min mark.. IdrA taking ANOTHER base..

IdrA gets a great fungal growth on a group of hellions! IdrA pushes forward with his ultras; and demolishes the handful of thors.. TLO tries to micro but has to back out

TLO takes another base; but IdrA is all over the map - another fungal growth catches 4/5 hellions in the middle of the map.. They roast some lings but get a nice big ultra hug..

TLO sticking to his mech army.. Neural parasite is on the way for IdrA, and an army of scvs take down a hatchery.. LOL

TLO floats a CC to the hatchery that his scvs just killed - LOL again - and now moves forward with his mech army.. IdrA massing infestor ultra with fungal growth and neural parasite now..

TLO building another CC as he makes a big push through the middle; a massive battle Ultras verse Thors! Ultras have to back up.. mass neural parasite! 8 thors getting neural parasited!

DOMINATION!

Ultras just eating through TLOs defensive line; a silly amount of lings and some ultras on the way for TLO - IdrA pushes to TLOs 10 oclock position, Ultras assaulting the Planetary Fortress and takes it down.. More starports on the way for TLO but the transition seems to late.. the ultra army is eating through everything.. IdrA on 6 bases; TLO trying to make banshees..

The ultra army pushes through TLOs natural and TLO GGs!

IdrA dominates his way to a 2-0 victory,

EG 1 : 0 TL

Live games coming up!

Nice caster delay... How do you manage that when you pause forever at the start of the game. Kinda takes something away from the game. Great series so far though.

It's been a recurring problem for... at least two months now, and that's the most frustrating part. It has literally been taking away from every single event they do, and it's been ongoing.

They know about it but apparently can't do anything about it with the format they use. I don't know why they insist on doing it the way they do, though. I would much much rather have one commentator on pace than two out of synch.

Hopefully the stream gets a bit better now that the replays are over. Amazing second game by both players.

Great move by idra.

Sigh, I think all terrans know the feeling when you're hanging in a game and suddenly it's OH FUCK ULTRAS EVERYWHERE.

I know I'm an esports terrorist for criticizing, but clash of the titans had the same problem and that was like a month ago. Whatever technical issue is causing it hasn't been fixed, and i know the plan for NASL is to cast live games but doesn't it make sense to assume that some games will have to be cast off replays because of lag between players/casters. So wouldn't it be prudent to I dunno, fix the problem that makes Gretorp slowly travel back through time as he casts before your $100,000 tournament begins
