Hyper Crew is proud to announce our most competitive series yet, the weekly Clash for the Cache showmatch! Clash for the Cache is a king of the hill style series with a twist. Each week two players will square off in a best of 7 series; however, players will have to win two weeks in a row to take home the cash prize. The prize pool will continue to grow, as each time a previous winner is defeated the current prize will be contributed to the next week's match.
Stream: This weekly event is organized, sponsored, and cast by www.HyperCrew.com. Live commentary will be provided by Zyori and Janitor on the Hyper Crew Stream.
Map Pool:
MLG Metalopolis MLG Shakuras Plateau MLG Xel'Naga Caverns The Shattered Temple Tal'darim Alter iCCup TestBug Scrap Station Desert Oasis
The first match will be played on MLG Metalopolis. After the first match, the loser will be able to choose a map from the remaining pool. There will not be any map repeats. In the event of a disconnect, we will review the match to determine the outcome, whether it be defaulting a win or replaying the match.

Who are you rooting for? btw, it was nice meeting you at MLG, I can't wait for Colombus ^__^
Anywho, guys we'll be working on adding the Races to the OP so to avoid any further confusion. But yes, this week will be a TvP :-) Hope you guys are ready for some good play. I hear State has been performing quite well. Avilo is no pushover as well, very accomplished in the DC area, but looking to hold up his name on a more broad scale. Gonna be fun casting!
state will win the first four games, then go on to take the virginity of avilo's daughter, steal all of his friends and kick his dog. don't mess with the best player ever (besides probe)
I wish I knew more about tQ.State... Has he played in any tournaments or done anything of much note? I need to do more research before making any predictions.
Don't know much about State. But I do know that avilo's TvP has gotten pretty good. Don't know why people wanna call him cheesy player? *shrugs* Didn't call Select that in MLG and he did almost ver batim what avilo does in one of his games.
Oh wells, avilo has my vote for sure.
P.S. If, in your minds, avilo has too many votes v State, ATHENEWINS probably hacked em again.

Player bio's would be nice... D:
State is a solid protoss.. He used to hang around hyper crew back in the days of weekly koth, but he left us for the doods at tQ
I've heard good things about his recent training.. and I think he might actually be gangster enough to pick my Desert Oasis.
so much avilo hate... haha I love that you guys blew up the thread :-) gonna be some excitement, hopefully you'll come watch ^__^ double dog dare someone to pick Desert Oasis.

LOL. Poor avilo nuttin. This is the way the votes should be. And the long shot wins, then everyone just sits with their jaw dropped to the floor and avilo supporters, LOFL! :D
I'm just hoping that these will be great games! Be sure and tune in as we really love audience involvement... sounds like you guys have some serious opinions already :-)

Might wanna change that icon then buddy
It's from broodwar.
Obviously... I find it funny how you call protoss the 1a race in SC2 when that clearly isn't the case, I can understand why people called it that in BW (even though it is the same thing that zerg does in SC2) but in sc2 there are more spells to be cast and earlier than the other races.

How can ppl call toss the 1a race in BW when you essentially have to 1a2a3a4a? There are plenty of Master League tosses in ladder who don't even hotkey their army it's ridiculous. But i'm not going to continue this conversation. I'm just rooting for Avilo

1a, 1a2a3a = same thing... And btw, I've seen just as many of the other races that don't hotkey their army.

I'm actually pretty sure you've only beaten me once..and I had to block you after the first time we played, because you were pretty upset about that game iirc.
When you get out of Masters or play me more than twice, you can maybe have a chance at proving you're better than me. ^_^

i was joking bro, no need to get serious
i'm rooting for u!!
bahahahahah I love it... Hope you guys are ready for the games tonight! Zyori and I are going to be on the ball! We'd love to set a new record tonight, so tell all your friends as the 2nd round of Clash for the Cache is starting!
You guys should make the cache only won when someone wins 10 series in a row, and make it smaller. It would go on forever, and we'd see more epic games!
lol, did State interpret that mule as a manner mule and not gg for that reason?
Then again I don't want to assume drama and I'll give the benefit of the doubt to both and assume State wanted to move on in the series and Avilo's mule was intended to repair the Hellions lol.
Wow, that switch from Mech to Air was genius. With the constant raven detection the cloaked banshees really was able to do their job. I should incorporate more mech into my play, eh? Good games so far.

hehe you might be wrong..
Heh, forgot sarcasm doesn't work on the internet. I mech all the time and am constantly being told that it would never work and that every Protoss unit instantly kills everything that's made from a factory. It's nice to see mech kicking ass.

I really didn't thought I'll find some inspiration for TvP looking at this serie, I was wrong, and I'm glad I was :p Didn't like game 4, but the first 3 were good and I'll steal that.

Hmm lol it kinda does in this situation. He 4-0 state pretty damn hard and very convincingly. I dont believe at any point State really showed that he stud a chance or had the upper hand. It safe to say that in this series, Avilo clearly showed that he is the better played. If it was possibly 4-3, a best of 3 or a best of 5, then it hard to say but it was a best of 7. So isnt the point of a series is to show place skill? I think a lot of skills was shown tonight by both player but Avilo clearly showed he is the better player.

"Point being that avilo won't win" and he 4-0s convincingly. I cannot fathom how you can be doubting after a bo7 sweep.

TLO lost to InControl 2-0 at MLG Dallas, who is the better player?
And with all the hate on Avilo I'm sure he prepared for this match way harder than Ryan.

lol just let it go man. It was obvious state didn't know how to play against mech and as good of a player as he is, you can't argue against a 4-0 sweep.

Well either way there no real reason to argue since you seem pretty bias in your decision. Either way, I am just giving up this silly arguement. GG to both player and i wish to see GoOdy next week .
EDIT: Also, the TLO and Incotrol thing....well that is why this is a bo7 and not a bo3

bahahaha you're still going about this? Why don't you just stick to what you know rather than making up a bunch of BS excuses as to why Avilo All Killed State? Avilo did state that his mech terran vs toss is catching up to how well his TvT is.
Anyway, lot's of protoss's think that mech isn't viable but there are a lot of tosses in ladder who honestly don't know how to deal with it either. Ppl acuse avilo of being a turtling terran but what it actualy is, is that it takes quite a lot to out play a protoss for example the constant hellion harrass, the timing pushes, etc etc. A terran can't just turtle to 200/200 and win without any harrassment, mech simply wouldn't work that way against a strong protoss

TLO is inconsistent since he left Korea.
Avilo was in a comfortable dominant position every single game regardless of what State did. State got outplayed hard enough for anyone to say that unless State was playing under some completely horrible circumstances Avilo is the better player. And that's fair because he's pretty damn good.

Then its his own fault for not preparing accordingly. Preparation is also factored into how good a player is, so Avilo is the better man in this respect as well.
And btw, did you even watch the games? Avilo DOMINATED state, he had no answer for his blue flame hellions AT ALL, he got owned.

Well, conclusions aside, Poke never said Avilo is the better player. He just said Avilo's TvP is not as bad as people think, and that Avilo did have a chance of winning (rather than your statement that Avilo won't win).
p.s. i<3state since the stra days so don't think I'm a crazy Avilo fanboy :s
haha, this thread makes me happy ^__^ be sure and come out and either support (or root against) VT.Avilo next week! His opponent is still under determination :-) We're looking for a good matchup, so you guys be sure to blow up that thread too.
Congrats to Avilo btw, haters gonna hate. And yes Terranist, Minigun can come back whenever he likes, he just needs to contact us beforehand... We've already been in contact with him and he won't be joining us this week.
i'll volunteer myself to put avilo in his place for next week, i'm a good friend of state and i'll avenge him. I'm grandmaster level i just don't ladder. PM me if u want me to show this scrub how to play
