Day 9 and Chill are Excellent casters.

When I first started listening to casts in the winter, I found Chill and decided he was one of myfavorite casters.

Now I'm an all masters player and I can thank the great commentary of Chill, Day 9, Moletrap, Doa and Tastetosis. This game is truly awesome.

I'm more pumped up now then all my seasons as a college tennis player at #2 singles. This is freaking awesonme

And who says E-sports aren't better than Sports? As an athelete, I have to say this shit is way better

From what I understand it's the actual replay files that go to GOM and Gisado? casts them. He may even do them at a later time as it would be like 3AM for a direct restream.

I don't know if its fair to ban people for such posts. Yes, he's probably very wrong, ThorZain could even have some very good chances in Code S. But TL got a bit too hard with banning people.

People should be able to express their opinions as long as it isn't in a rude way. If they're wrong other people can tell them but its not fair to ban a person for such a harmless post in my opinion.

Just like Boxer picking the weakest race and becomes the master, Thorzain does the same and comes out winning TSL against all odds, as a Zerg, I am amazed of his skills. Terran isn't supposed to stand a chance on that map vs P, and he won. Sure, Chill's lag and Thorzain's nerves of ice made Naniwa lose a game he would have won 99 out of 100, but still, amazing match.

Wait what? Thorzain comes out winning as a zerg? Terran not standing a chance on that map? According to TLPD it's only 60% PvT.

"as a Zerg, I am amazed of his skills". Only 60% PvT win rate? Only 60% Protoss favored? Would only 60% Protoss be a good argument against Protoss being favored? I do not like to see your examples of what maps you find P favored then, if you use 60% P favored as a point in your argument

Joke aside, with Naniwa's PvT ratio on the most dreadful map in the map pool (please Blizzard, bring back the Blizzard maps) I just did not see Thorzain stand a chance. You have to keep in mind that the 60% P favored stats are including players that is not Naniwa, and I think no non-Korean can stand a chance against Naniwa, and I doubt most Koreans except MC and Genious would even in Korea, so if you give the top P in the world a 60% map, I expect him to roflstomp his opponent.


Blizzard maps have 99% been terrible. They do not how to make a good map.

Are you kidding me? That guys posts is clearly hate. Proof being that Thorzain has already torn through 2 gsl champions before. If everyone was allowed to express there opinions as long as it isn't rude we would still have a shit storm of a forum. If anyone knows what they are doing its the TLMods. I'm sure they do this for a reason

Don't worry Mardow, he was banned for being a previously banned user - not for expressing his opinion.


Ha, ok, didn't know that. I guess it's fine then ;s

Didn't they say that they'd have the result later in the week, and not during the cast? I thought I heard Chill say that.

Hehe, you could really hear Day[9]'s voice trembling during the last moments of the final game, and I don't blame him. It was so tense I had nerdchills creepin' up on me. Hot darn, what an epic ending to a great tournament!

Alot of mistakes during the final cause it to be close and thus entertaining, otherwise a Naniwa win was pretty obvious. Thorzain totally outclassed game 7, Naniwa under a lot of pressure got greedy and decided to kill his chances at the extra $8000. Up approximately 40 food and in worker count shoulda kept the light contained, grabbed his third with double forge twilight council and got charge/upgrades. And being the overall better player took it to late game and manhandle Thorzain like he did in the Shakuras game with a tech switch into mass gateway with storm. Oh well, pressure was the biggest factor of this loss, hes still the better player and will show it with future results as Thorzain will fade into mediocrity.


Dear fanboy,
it is fine if you like Nani better, it's also even fine if you think he deserved to win... I mean, who knows how the game would have gone had each player made different decisions? what is not fine is to lower down the opponent -- calling him mediocre -- in order to make your precious nani stand a bit taller.

That was a good series. I felt Naniwa lost it more than Thorzain won it, but it was entertaining either way

Thorzain has AN AWESOME chance in Code A and certainly Code S.

SC2 doesn't require the same insanely high APM to macro since workers can be cued to resources instead of indiivudally sent to patches.

The changes in macro mechanics means more time to focus on solid strategies and micro of untis.

Thorzain's builds are SPOT ON and well-concevied. This guy has spent time on calculating defensive and offensive timings.

I'm a huge fan

It will be announced next week during TLattack.

A bit disappointed, but it's their raffle, so not much to do

No. ThorZain WON it.

Naniwa had an advantage but Thorzain OVERCAME that advantage.

There was no obvious move command instead of attack command.

ThorZain is just FREAKING AMAZING
