This event takes place twice each weekend with both the KOTH Korea event on the KR server and KOTH International on the EU server. Each episode features exciting competitive players from GSL stars to underrated team practice heroes. Ladder points accrued for performing also contribute towards eventual offline events with much larger prizepools to be announced later in the year, and strong performances in the KOTH lead of course to potential invites to the $20,000 offline KOTH event. All invited competitors will play in order against the winner of the previous match. After all competitors have played, the player standing undefeated at the end will recieve $100 (AU$), and the player with the longest win-streak of the night will recieve $200 (AU$). Ladder points for the event will also be awarded as below: + Show Spoiler [Ladder Points] +

Some of the games in these KOTH are truly epic. Looking forward to Sunday 
|
Awesome, DS switched to Terran? He was sick as random, he will be one of the top Taiwanese players now he's focusing on one race imo. Can't wait!
|
Hello, del, I have left you message on your twitter last week. Would you please provide some slots for Chinese players other than from iG. Now I'm represent players from Tyloo and WE and they also want to play on this KOTH~ If possible, we can discuss on msn, I left you message there too.
|
![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tsld/images/flags/cn.png)  TylooJim will also be playing. Because of the Korean holiday this Sunday (Korean thanksgiving) player availability is lower so it's a good opportunity to let a couple extra Chinese or Taiwanese players to have a shot
|
Two more players in the lineup:
![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tsld/images/flags/kr.png)  VegaMvP
 TeriusPrime
FXOCrane
RvmMentalist

It's okay. I'm just a bit of an accuracy freak. ^^;

Oh intriguing. The Chinese have finally come out to play. Wonder how they will fare.

The high numbers of Chinese is mostly due to the Korean holiday but if any of them get a good win streak they'll probably get invited back to play again we've had Chinese players in the past.

LoveCD replaced by LOUP (also WE.GIGA)
|
And we're live

Abuse of zerg macro. Really need protosses to get out of their turtle style, they need to do massive harass now.

Yeah, but imho if you gonna turtle like the toss did i think you are better walking out with a max army, and he didnt do that .
|
Protoss will probably go back into the deathball playstyle again soon..
|
The 200/200 army doesn't quite work on Terminus since the Zerg can take the entire map if you turtle, after which an ample supply of broodlords and infestors will stop your "death ball" and leave you out to dry. Jim's initial pressure with colossi wasn't bad and he took out Cezzane's fifth, at which point he was on even bases with his own fourth coming online. The problem was that he over-extended afterwards when Cezanne attacked, and was baited into an open area, on creep, with an inadequate army (he didn't have force fields in that engagement). Jim should've been satisfied after defending the roaches and continued teching.
Protoss need to keep repeating this in their head: "I'm not really safe until I have high templars and void rays. I'm not really safe until I have high templars and void rays. I'm not really safe until I have high templars and void rays." Because frankly speaking, zealot stalker colossi will only get you so far. Once Zerg get neural parasite and hive tech, they can stop that composition relatively easily.

who the hell is vegamvp? What team is he from lol.
|
That last game was... weird. And that terran was... well he just didn't do the best decisions :p
|
I love these KOTH you do FXO especially for Korea!
A quick tip: Turn off the "regular" dance music or SC2 music when you are in the game client. It's kind of weird to have both the SC2 music and the dance music on at the same time. Nothing big, just a small tweak you can do :D.
|
Ooops, I'll keep the games/results going on from now, sorry!
|
wow nice play by fxocrane.
Solid micro and macro. Lifting up those infestors probably led to the win.
|
Game 5 FXOCrane <Shakura's Plateau> WE.GIGA.LEOP
|
That was very awesome from Crane
|
wow Crane is pretty good. That was an interesting, albeit risky DT opening.

Fixed that.
Actually it might be an idea to get some of you talented people out there in the community to contribute your own well recorded songs and hear them on stream. Just an idea
BTW, all this protoss is a good thing. It's about time I ventured out of Terran land

Game 8 iGMacSed <Crevasse> RvmMentalist

Mentalist kicking butt and taking names...

According to TLPD he is on team ProS (Project Supreme). Is it a professional team, or "just" a clan?

And now we're all the way over here on page 4.
|
Sleep seems to be on a roll lately. With this winstreak and + Show Spoiler + maybe Slayers will finally have some good players who aren't terran.
|
are there any replays or just vods?
