( at first post at least ) The TLPD-ize function has its quirks which links MKP to his BW profile (where he played Protoss). It's also why Genius is listed as Terran (he was a Terran in BW) in the OP.
Pooh = Smart = JYP. The GSTL officially calls him as JYP though.

Howdy! We're at the studio again today and while it's difficult for us to ghetto-stream the matches off the TV (displayed in 3D, just comes across blurry) we'll do our best to bring you whatever content we can. Follow @CyberSportsNet for match updates and possible live-stream alerts. :D

You don't feel truly nerdy till you've watched a livestream of a big screen recording from a phone being shot through 3d glasses <3
SuperNova vs Yonghwa on Bel'shir beach, bio timing into Yonghwa's nat but Yonghwa holds, Nova only now getting his own nat up but has a lot of rax in his main, not sure if the nat was denied earlier?
Youghwa with Colossus on the way, Nova tries another bio push but gets shut down.
Yonghwa pushing out with 2 Colossus + thermal lance now, Nova has only just got his starport down.
Seltzer's worried for Nova, "Oh shit run away!". There's nowhere to run though and Younghwa steamrolls into his nat and crushes everything in a blaze of laserpowered glory

SuperNova vs Yonghwa, cross pos on Meta.
Fast conc shells from Nova for a marauder poke, feels funny seeing this since it's gone out of fashion lately. Takes his CC at the nat. Younghwa doing a 1gate expo, very heavy on sentries so far.
Younghwa up to 3gates and teching to Colossus, Nova with a very standard bio set up (tech tech reactor) and his factory just completing.
Timing from Nova, but Yonghwa holds it pretty comfortably with some good forcefields. Upgrades about even. Thermal lance done and Charge on the way for Yonghwa, dropping several more gates too.
Nova building a third and at the same time pushing out to check for Yonghwa's. A minor engagement and Yonghwa roasts a few units thanks to some well placed forcefields. He's going Templar since Nova has already got a good few vikings out, but Nova is well up to speed and already has a ghost academy built.
5 Colossus + Templar = scary, Yonghwa's turn to look to deny a third while taking his own. Nova positions to block it, Yonghwa walking around to the nat now, big engagement and SCV's have to be pulled but Nova does hold it off. Both have established thirds now, Yonghwa has resumed Colossus production and I'm not sure if Nova has continued with his vikings.
Big drop in the main snipes the twilight council, forge, and robo bay! Nova also wants to push with his main army at the third but Yonghwa is wise to that and prevents that at least.
Huge bioball for Nova, huge deathball for Yonghwa. Nova was making more vikings, and has +1 air on the way. Yonghwa getting blink + DT's.
DT harass forcing Nova to return to defend himself, Nova decides to establish himself at the Gold while preparing a drop at the third of Yonghwa. Drop snipes the third! Yonghwa doesn't even have a fourth on the way (though that's more a result of a slow rate of expansion than anything else)
BIG max engagement at Nova's gold, but Younghwa's positioning isn't as good as Nova's and he's attacking near a PF. It's still a pretty even trade but Nova's eco is so much better that he's almost certainly going to be able to macro up a solid lead after this.
I think there's about a 30 supply lead for Nova, hard to see numbers though xD I can count that Yonghwa is on 4 bases to Nova's 5 though. Yonghwa fends off a drop at his fourth.
Another huge engagement though I have no clue what's going on, just a giant ball of psionic death xD Looks like Yonghwa came out ahead and he's taking his gold.
Nova with a drop that takes out Yonghwa's fourth but Yonghwa's decided not to defend and takes the opportunity to roll forwards across the map into Nova's map cleaning up all the other troops on the way. With nothing left to defend back at home and his expo's + production under huge amounts of fire Nova gg's
2-0 Yonghwa.

Props to CSN+Seltzer for the lovely ghetto stream This makes me curious if the 3D is any good

DRG vs Taeja game 1 on Bel'shir Beach:
Hatch first from DRG, interesting opening from Taeja, he's going speed reaper + hellions!
DRG droned pretty well through the early harass, getting some roaches now. Oh my it's speed reaper/hellion/medivac at the moment xD
Taeja making both an expansion and a fast third OC, as well as switching to siege tech. DRG's third is on the way and he's exerting a lot of map presence with his speedling/roach combo. Viking from Taeja clearing out overlords.
Spire coming from DRG, Taeja has a perfectly timed armory down though if he wants to go into Thors. Baneling nest for DRG, it's a pretty stabled midgame right now, neither played really doing too much though DRG is starting up some muta harass.
The obs takes a moment to showcase how sexy the flying units look in 3d.
Taeja moving out on the map a bit, poking around the centre and clearing rocks at his gold. DRG immediately runs a speedling/muta counter into his nat and kills a few scv's + forces Taeja to retreat.
A LOT of mutas out for DRG, he cleans up Taeja's attempt to expand at the gold but a marine counter kills DRG's third.
I had to afk a mo and missed how they got there, but DRG's army is countering around Taeja's nat while Taeja has sieged DRG's. Taeja's push is pretty sick but DRG looks like he's held it and has his gold running now too while I don't think Taeja's managed to secure a third yet.
Taeja crawling tanks towards the gold but he gets shut down again, he tries desperately to take his own gold again but DRG is all over it with mutas and shuts that down too.
Taeja GG's out and DRG leads 1-0

DRG vs Taeja game 2 on Meta.
Taeja spawns at 2, DRG spawns at 8. Hatch first again from DRG while Taeja is again opening with a reaper.
Oh this time it's going to be a reaper expand with an attempted rush thrown in, first reaper actually gets quite a bit done.
3rax and a port on the way for Taeja, reactor on factory so it looks like some early bio pressure/drops.
DRG with a much earlier baneling nest than last game, looks like he's going for the bust!
Huge amounts of damage done at the nat but he doesn't quite bust into the main on first try, he backs out to regroup and breaks the wall but gets cleaned out without too many casualties actually inside the main for Taeja.
DRG going lair + macro hatch on 2 bases, trying to build a spire but Taeja's counter push has sieged below his main and he's elevatoring units up. It's held off and DRG is trying to take a third, but no sooner is it done than Taeja is over there trying to kill it off. More units in DRG's main doing damage too!
Taeja with a big push across the map and DRG misses it, having to fall back from almost the other side of the map to defend. He pulls drones but does hold, meanwhile Taeja has a third CC complete in his base. DRG is doing a good job with his mutas but he's behind in supply and only level in economy.
Mutas being a huge nuisance in Taeja's main, Taeja decides fuck it I'll go kill him. It looks bad for DRG but he flanks from three sides and brings his mutas back at the last moment and does clean up the attack.
Taeja pushing out again with another sizable army and DRG just types out.

DRG vs Taeja game 3 on Terminus.
DRG spawns at 6 while Taeja spawns at 12.
Reaper expand vs hatch first, who'd have thought it =p Fast 2nd gas from Taeja after his CC is interesting. Going for very fast siege mode after expand. DRG for his part has thrown down a fairly fast baneling nest.
Taeja with yet another fast third OC in base. Third down for DRG, lots of rax on the way for Taeja, looks like he wants Stim + Shields side by side., followed by +1 infantry weapons. Spire + baneling speed on the way for DRG, as well as what looks to be melee carapace 1.
Awesome creep spread from DRG, he's building another hatch but because he's red I can't see on the creep whether it's a fourth or a macro one till the obs shows =p DRG attempting to start up Muta harass but Taeja's advance positioning is amazing, with marines flanked by 2 turrets sending DRG scurrying home wounded.
Thors out for Taeja and a fourth CC on the way, infestors and pathogen glands almost done for DRG and he's about to have a Hive up. His creep covers the whole cente of the map and is almost encroaching on the choke to Taeja's base.
Muta/Ling/Bane/Infestor with SOOO many banelings, Taeja trying to take back at least some map control with good tank positioning. Greater spire almost done for DRG though.
Huge attack from DRG, Taeja's positioning is good and while he loses a lot it's a decent trade. He pushes out but is stopped short by a tidal wave of lings. Broodlords out for DRG but he also has an Ultralisk cavern.
No vikings to handle the Broodlords yet and they are forcing Taeja all the way back, Taeja's fourth gets taken out and he's in full retreat. He does have a drop taking out one of DRG's hidden side bases. DRG crashing into the nat with lings, and the march of the ultralisks is about to commence. Taeja killed DRG's spawning pool with a drop, he's doing a good job of hanging on. Trying to reestablish his fourth now.
And heeeeereee come the Ultralisks, absolutely crushing Taeja's forces as they careen into the natural. Taeja trying to drop another of DRG's bases and lands vikings at yet another but he's now over 100 supply behind (thanks Rachel for the zoom =p). DRG is tearing everything apart, workers, army, and production alike.
Taeja GG's, DRG takes the series 2-1, and the phone's battery never died!

Thanks for the stream CSN + Rachel!
