Is Lizzuma fucking eating on a cast? Have to take back what I said about professional. Does it really matter? If I had to cast for that long I'd certainly want some nourishment at some point... cut them some slack. It's not like it's impeding his casting abilities, unless your ears simply can't handle the occasional sound of chewing. They've had 5-10 breaks. Eat then is common sense. At very least let Orb take over for a bit while you chow down. What you don;t do is talk with a mouth full of food. Actually we only had 1 5 minute break through the entire day of casting. Every other "break" was just a /commercial both to try to get some ad revenue to increase funding for iccup.tv as well as give us time to load up the next replays and get the overlays setup. It's actually a pretty grueling process, you end up casting for 8 hours straight with only a 5 minute break and no time to really eat, but it ends up being pretty necessary just to get through the number of games we cast. Sorry if the eating bothered you, maybe in the future we can organize your suggestion of just having one of us stop casting for a while (let the other one solo cast) while the other guy gets a short break to go eat. Thanks again to everyone for the support! All day no breaks wow.. Now you're making me feel bad about my limited criticism  . Keep up the good work guys, Very knowledgeable and professional. I really like this tournament more than most and it's a shame it's not getting even more attention.
Just for the record I'm not a total slave driver, I encourage breaks between all series and suggested a 10-15 minute one in between groups  . Orb and Lizzuma are just hardcore!

Indeed. ICCUP speaking of work, are you going to divi up these vods and put them on your youtube station? Or is it just not worth it? I am just catching up on last seasons over at justin and it would be nice to just go to gamesand matchups I wanted to see rather than waiting through multi hour long vods.

Can I just ask why the HuK series is tied at 1-1??

We were sent an incorrect replay. We have now acquired the correct one, and will be finishing out the series tomorrow.

Yeah we plan to, probably this weekend. For the future weekly content we are probably just going to do select matches and the rest in rebroadcast form, and just do big events like this one with all matches separated.
Also www.iccup.tv is my #2 priority now, once we get that site up (need a web dev first T_T) we will be separating everything again.

Reading the comments from last night it seems like group B was amazing? :O
Might have to watch the vods from it rather than the GSL haha, happy to see Curious doing so well, he's great in all the match ups imo, just seems to struggle to actually bring that out in the booth.

Group B was out of hand good, they really put on a show for everyone! They really made up for any early problems in the tournament (early all ins, HuK vs aLive missing game, etc)!
Also I made a hype thread don Reddit for Day 2, a lot of people complain they never heard of this tournament so hoping to get some love to this to get people on Reddit aware, it seems a decent chunk of TL has noticed already  !

Thank you very much. I fell asleep just as the series was starting, looking forward to day 2 and more great action

Omg my predictions sucked ^^
Will be fun to watch Group C tonight!!

Artosis just gave this a shoutout on stream I hope more people check it out now!
|
Just started watching the VODs, and I have to say, that teamcolor mod is the most obnoxiously distracting and irritating thing I've ever seen. I seriously hope you guys reconsider using it for the remainder of the broadcasts because it's already detracting from my enjoyment of what look to be epic games.

maybe a stupid question, but where do u watch the VODs? i didnt find them on the iccup youtube, justintv or own3d chan .... what did i do wrong?
edit: nvm i found em on justin.tv by googling >_< thx anyway, guys!

Took me a bit to find them, but they're here -- http://www.justin.tv/iccuptv/b/290500909
It's in large chunks of stream without a way to select individual matches at the moment..
Also, I've pretty much given up on trying to watch it with that stronger color mod, it looks like Tonka Toys in Space. Really stupid move to cast a tournament with that on in my opinion, and now I'm extremely disappointed because I heard some of these were AWESOME games... but honestly I can't pay attention to anything with that butchering of the graphics.

Can't wait to see Huk vs Alive game 3
|
In defense of Huk's "all-ins", the crevasse build is actually a really sick oGs build that takes advantage of the rich vespense geyser to get a super fast 6-8 gates up and do an enormous amount of pressure regardless of how prepared your opponent is. Alive had like 4 bunkers and a massive wall-in and still got crushed by it. Meanwhile HuK also takes a third - you can see a pull-back and macro game in Huk vs Polt in the Supertournament (which admittedly HuK did lose, but more due to army control than a build order loss). And then a DT expand when he scouted 2-rax... DT is a really hard counter to 2-rax aLive made a very big blunder in showing him that, and so HuK took a massive, easy advantage. As Artosis says its not cheese if you know its going to work.

I believe you're in the minority. I personally don't care. Doesn't make a difference to me.
Anyways, it is used because the caster (orb) is color blind. The stronger color mod helps him distinguish the two players (especially in ZvZ and PvP mirror matches).
