Gogo Demuslim! Wiiiiiiin.
Such a good lineup! Be interesting to see who comes out on top
|
|
could someone link to the map dual site? I never heard of it before.
|
|
They really take their time with the grid ... zzzz
|
Srsly dude, u have an awesome tournament, with a great prizepool and awesome players even 2 from NA+Sen and you open a TL Thread literally minutes before the start?
Thats kinda poor advertising, at least here on TL to get more viewers, sorry...

I am not associated or connected with this tournament, it's organization or administration in any way.
|
Ofc it is in the calendar but you have to open a thread in advance for more information hehe...
@Zere: That is not trolling, it is advice but if you are not associated with the tournament i am sorry ofc. Leaves the question why no "official" opened one.
|
How do I find my opponents code? I tried asking in the IRC channel but it won't send anything I type.
|
Ths is one beastly lineup 
...simply epic!

Do you know your opponent? I don't think the grid is up yet (unless there's something wrong with my browser).
|
Grid doesn't show but on main page shows I have one match and shows opponents name when I click it.

Weird, when I click on "Your have 1 match(es) running", it says "Grid is not published yet!"
What is the irc/b.net channel for this cup?
Nvm, they just posted this: Due technical problems with our stream the cup is delayed until 7pm. So you still have the chance to be a part of it.

In how long is 7PM in EU? I'm from NA ><

Pretty sure Ben withdrew?
He was doing some commentary for ESL and said he had commitments this evening that meant he couldn't play out the whole call4kings cup at least.
|
|
I hope Nerchio will show his skillz to the wide public. Only 200 ppl for eng commentary, i hope it will increase because its just an epic lineup!
|
gogo Kas, NightEnD, TT1 !!!
|
Casey Kasem's casting SC2 now too!?
|
Anyone know the brackets?

great game by morrow, he just won vs tarson
|
Seems to be grubby against Sjow next

grubby vs sjow soon
|
That bracket need a collapse function.
|
Click on the "round" word.
|
|
Ah thanks. I guess I should have said, that bracket needs to let people know it has a collapse function.
|
wow grubby played really good g1 vs sjow, his skill lvl increases so fast
|
So who do you want to play next? Sjow or Grubby?
|
Should have went for the planetary I think, Grubby let sjow get back in this.
|
|
Sick game between Grubby and Sjow.
|
Sick sick game! Sjow did some amazing multitasking there.
|
grubby threw it away but nicely done by sjow
|
Sjow so good, the swedish water so good!
|
Nerchio won vs Morrow according to the brackets 
Or is it best of 5 in the semi finals?
|
I'm ok with this
|
|
Damn Grubby had a couple of chances to finish it. He just need 2% more game-sense and he is a beast. His micro is already soooo impressive. I'm also already impressed by his macro, he makes more probes than his opponents in the same time.
|
We are totaly not biased by the way.
|
tt1 vs sjow and nerchio vs ??? who in semis?

final: Nerchio vs TT1/SjoW i guess
|
Empire top team in Europe right Xeris? :D Wish me luck in finals :< i am quite tired already
|
GL Nerchio ! I see a good future as a pro player for you Miażdżysz ziomek !
|
Good luck Nerchio! You've definitely been on a streak lately. ^_^
Taking out Osho, Ranged, Strelok and Morrow in this tournament alone, kudos.

Oh, thanks TT1! Well done punishing that Terran, and goodluck in finals! Nerchio is rly strong =]
|
Best of luck nerchio! You are really on a run lately. Sad to see tt1 win with such tactics. he clearly doesn't wanted to deal with a long macro game.

holy shit, TT1 playing as Stork? instant fan ^^
|
epic sc1 music. sooooooooooo goooooooooood!
|
3rd place match will be casted? No? Would be awesome! great tour (: !
|
I don't think there is 3rd place prize in this tournament.
|
seems like tt1 is beeing outplayed
|
Stork going for 2nd place!

but lets hope that tt1 can take some games so we will see more great games

Nerchio is crushing this wow

I want to write some summary after each game, but then those cats on Gunrun's client. I CANT FOCUS.

Hahahaha, this set is hilarious already.

dang strong play by nerchio~~ gg's

Congratulations nerchio! Really great games.

|
mistake to instant attack the drones... his first 3 zealots achieved next to nothing. should've killed expansion before it finished imo
|
Epic games, thanks for the show to both players :}
|
Epic win! and 0 losses throughout the entire tournament for Nerchio! holy shit 0_O
|
Sooooooo, I missed game 3. what?
|
Very nice games and tournament and congrats to nerchio.

you came to the finals, 200€ ain't bad sir. congrats

Who is Nerchio and why is he so good?
Also, future reference for the casters. If a cannon is up by the mineral it's basically GG for the zerg not the protoss. No idea why you kept saying it was gg for tt1 when he's got a cannon up and like twice the harvesters?

he has been a constant threat on eu online tournaments for some month now
|
Oh wow he's from empire! I guess old account with the aAa
Xeris you must feel like even more of a douche now for calling them a bad team? LOL
|
damn, I just read his first name which said "Artur" almost got my hope up for him being blackman...

u didnt watch alot of eu cups did you ? he's currently best zerg in eu winning almost everything he joins.

Thanks for the great games and the great casting. Have rarely seen so little downtime in a live tournament, good stuff!
Congrats to Nerchio, he's been such a beast lately. Go travel and own it up some more in the big offline tournaments! :D

Go make us proud in the Super Tournament if you can!

Not really. There's a big difference between team events and individual tournaments. Nerchio played incredibly well today, I don't think anyone can deny that... he swept through the whole tournament without a loss.

Empire is running rampant lately, Happy winning the other big EU-tournament of the day. It's really becoming a habit.
Nerchio has taken leaps and bounds since he stopped playing random. Happy is just insane if he started playing SC2 as late as the rumours are saying. And then there is Kas, imagine if they still had Naniwa aswell. Then they would arguably have the best EU-player from every race judging by form.

The way his building were positioned he was unable to build any gateways as the zerglings would have taken it out....or i thought, as i didn't see the probe that slipped out and build the other gates, i got that wrong as i just didn't see it! haha
I'll improve for next time hopefully.
By the way this tournament was unreal! Awesome players, admins got us games immediately and a fantastic prize pool.
Was a pleasure to cast.

Yay that would be great, but he has been inactive for veeeery long time as far as i know, also why would he smurf anyway? Its not like most of people know who he is anyway.

Nerchio is like 18... so unless Blackman invented a time machine, it's probably not him ^_^!

He can do that no problem, he even made a super pro AI to help him practice

Just wondering when will the replays for the finals be uploaded onto the site? Or is it not going to be?

Where did you get this from? Nerchio is 2371 right now and his peak the same, but Kas has peaked at 2374...

Someone added older games that were played a week ago or so, thus shifting the ELO again (we are trying to stay up to date but it's not always 100% possible). When I added this tournament yesterday, Nerchio peaked at 2380 (!).

Ah ok, that makes sense. Thanks for uploading the replays btw, they are on the site now =)
