Hi everyone !
I'm proud to announce the third edition of the Cerberus Cup by Origine-online.
This event is going to be splitted in five tournaments :
- 4 qualifiers with 150 € cashprize (125 first, 25 second) and points to the main event. Those are happening every Tuesday starting September 20 2011.
- one main event with 1000 € and a Cerberus 3D G4M3R SC2 Limited Edition compiter (value 1400€).
Each event are going to be covered in French (by Origine-online), English (Endrey & Imba.tv), German (HomerJ & MrPink) and Russian (NaviTV).
Separate topics will be made for each qualifier in order to keep things clean.

Second qualifier tomorrow !
|
After another win by Nerchio, he's not the first qualified for the main event !
The third qualifier is happening this Tuesday, will Nerchio win a third time ?
|
Congratulations to Satiini and Lalush for their first and second place finish !
|
Remember to tune in for the last qualifier on Tuesday and next week for RO16 and RO8 of the finals !
|
any english lang streams ?
|
|
|
Yesterday was a blast, thanks to all who tuned in !
So far, the qualified are :
Nerchio 16
Adelscott 8
Satiini 8
ALF 8
Fuzer 6
Lalush 6
Kas 6
We then have to choose 5 persons in the 4 points category :
Beastyqt 4
PhoeNix 4
FocusMyHead 4
Roll 4
NightEnd 4
jimpo 4
White 4
DeathAngel 4
We will try to choose the best players based on their performance during game and we want to try and provide a final with an as equal as possible number of players from each race, so that's taken into account in our choice.
In case a qualified player can't make it, we will ask someonelse from the 4points and then 2points category.
I'll keep you updated on that and on the 4 invites. We have some great ideas, we're waiting for players answers.
See you soon !
|
That's it guys, today is the day !
First part of the RO16 is happening this evening !
As you can see in the OP, some of the qualified players can't make it and thus we moved on in our list.
Thanks again all and see you tonight !

can we see final brackets?
gl to all 
|
As soon they are available, still waiting on one player aswer to get that rolling 
|
Heard rumors that this won't have a final on LAN as planned at Paris Games Week 
|
That is, sadly, rigth. It will all be online, there was a last minute change in the PGW staff and we can't comply to their demands.
Bracket going up really soon (after all we're starting in 30 minutes), seems like we have a last minute forfeit so we need to find a new player.
|
We're having issues with the bracket but since we're just playing half the RO16 today, it's not that big a deal.
EDIT : Nevermind, bracket is up !
|
Forcing players to play with major lag issues is an absolute idiotic decision from the admins. This isn't the only issue with this tournament as announcing a LAN final when nothing is guaranteed is also not a smart choice. Everything should have been locked in with contracts for the LAN final so that PGW couldn't make late demands...
|
I'm not in the confidence for PGW, i'm just a caster, so i can't comment on that.
On the lag issue, we tried to make them play the game Tomorrow but Alf isn't available so we can't make them play later.
Please bare with us, it's our first cup of this amplitude and planning that between MLG, Blizzcon, PGW (ESWC) has really been aweful and we're doing everything we can to try and give a smooth experience.
Please PM OrigineTV for any complaints, i'm trying to keep this topic for results.

Awesome game by Satiini who takes the serie 2-0 against the 4th qualifier champion NaViAlf
|
What was the score between MorroW/NightEnD?
|
Morrow won 2-0 with two really strong games !
Grubby made a come back and won 2-1 vs DeathAngel after a really quick loose game 1.
Now Adelscott from team Millenium vs Phoenix from team Type.
This will be today's last match !
|
AWESOME game from Phoenix who now tied the series 1-1.
Last match of the evening guys
|
And Adelscott wins ! See you all tomorrow
|
Tonight :
Virus.White vs Empire.Kas
LiquidTLO vs MǂLalush
Acer.Nerchio vs Plea / Fuzer
Beastyqyt vs Moman
Casted by Anoss and me for Origine, see OP for the others languages.
Thanks !
|
Sadly no english stream today but you can still enjoy the games whitout commentary on either OrigineTV or MrPink !
|
Kas wins 2-0 against White. Really awesome games !
|
TLO lost 0-2 against Lalush. Too really really cool games from TLO !
|
Well that was quick, Nerchio 2-0 Fuzer.
4min30 ingame time for second game.
Is that a new record ? :D
|
And our last player qualified for the RO8 is Beastyqt a really strong 2-0 against MoMaN.
See you all next week !
|
The quarters finals are all happening Wednesday, 26 of October at 20:00 CEST.
The four matches look awesome ! Be sure to tune in guys
|
Thanks for reminding me! Will watch for sure, very nice matchups
|
Due to the DreamHack qualifiers, the Adelscott vs MorroW game can't be played tonight and will be played the same day as the finals.
Because of that, we're starting at 21:00 CEST with (in order) :
Nerchio vs Lalush
Grubby vs Satiini
Kas vs Beastyqt
Be sure to tune in =)
|
Oeh, a hour later ;( grubby fighting!
|
|
|
EDIT : Nevermind, we're back on normal schedule.

Does that mean all 4 quarter-final matches are today?
|
No still only three but for a while one of the match was supposed to be earlier.
The fourth match (Adel vs MorroW) will be held the same day as the semis.
|
Wow, I didn´t thought ZvZs can be that boring.
|
Who won? I missed the end
|
I have to agree. Some of the least fun ZvZs I've seen...
But anyways, Nerchio vins 2-1 against Lalush.
Now it's time for Grubby vs Satiini !
It's also going to be the last match tonigth as Beasty and Kas both can't make it.
Their match is going to be played alongside Adelscott vs Morrow and the RO4 on Sunday.

What is Bowders problem with lategame zealots?

It was worth the wait, go grubby!! !
|
that was an amazing game still can't belive that grubby pull this off, i feel that satiini's biggest mistake was leaving this bottom location to mine for too long if few marines/marauders sniping the probes and this one was over. still gg grubby fighting
|
Sorry for the no english stream guys, our casters didn't warn us in time.
I'm making my priority to get an english stream for Sunday because the games are going to be sick.
See you Sunday ! I'll update the main post with the exact time when it's decided.
Thanks all.

Yea such an amazing game. Thought it was over at several points. Satiini almost had 100 more supply at one point didn't he? That's the Grubby we all know and love <3
|
As a Grubby fan I am happy and sad at the same time - 3rd game was definitely Satinii´s game to lose and not Grubby outplaying him. I don´t want to take anything away from Sats - he is quite good, but if the Grubbster wants to play with the big boys he really needs more consistency in his gameplay. Nevertheless GO GRUBBY!
|
As usual, there are going to be some changes in the schedule because well, things never goes as planned or it would be too easy.
Tune in in 20 minutes (at 20:00) for Kas vs Beastyqt and the winner of that vs Nerchio.
We should also be streaming Morrow vs Adelscott but the match vs Grubby is going to be postponed to Tuesday with the finals because of Battle in Berlin.
|
Morrow takes it 2-1 against Adelscott and will be matched against Grubby in what is going to be an epic series (on Tuesday).
|
An epic series just took place and Beastyqt won it 2-1 against teammate Kas.
Beastyqt vs Nerchio, now !
|
And Nerchio wins 3-0 aganist Beastyqt with a 3minutes and 1 second 3rd match.
See you all Tuesday, Morrow vs Grubby is going to be siiiiiick :D
|
are replays going to be released at any point?

I'm really interested in the 3 minute replay
|
I'll have to check with my manager for the replays, but i do believe a replay pack will be available on our website. If this is the case, i'll make sure to link it here and updated the frontpage.
The 3minutes replays isn't actually that good :p
By the way, the finals are today ! Morrow vs Grubby ! The winner of that goes against Nerchio in the grand finals while the looser goes against Beastyqt in the 3rd place.
Be sure to tune in at 20:00 cet.
|
I will be doing the english cast today!
its actually quite amazing having so many good players in this and stuff worth around 2500€
 Grubby
 MorroW
 Beastyqt
Nerchio
|
Is this event happening now? I wanna watch Morrow!
|
Grubby and Nerchio attending the same tournament and not playing each other? That would be weird...
|
|
|
|
|
Really good tournament and great french shoutcast !
Well done Origine-Online !!! =)

What do you do when zergs get that composition? :/

archon toilet is the ONLY possibility. And even then you have to get lucky.

Pray for mothership + archon + storm to work out. I have yet to find a unit composition that actually wins vs that zerg lategame army
|
nice game #2
|
I wonder if in Game2, Carriers could actually be the best answer to mass BL's+Infestors+Spines.... Cuz you can't get attacked by either BL's nor Spines and if you split the carriers up, they could actually snipe Infestors....
On the other Hand, Grubby should've just warped in mass Speedlots all over morrows base, cuz you really need to punish the slow BL's or you don't stand a chance.
|
Mothership is the key in late game. Watch Huk stream, he makes the zerg drop 100+ supply in less than 5 seconds lol
|
ling+bling seems even more scary than blord infestor :O
|
And Morrow takes it 3-1 that was an incredible series, clearly some of the best ZvP i've seen in a while !
Grubby vs Beastyqt for 3rd match place, NOW !
|
morrow is the true BOMBER
|
Morrow took that series convincingly grats to him.
I was rooting for grubbby though!!! GOGO GRUBBY!
|
Wow, Morrow vs Nerchio grudge match in the finals. Looking forward to seeing how Morrow's TvZ has progressed.

love the imbatv cast

Hi there nice cast. GOGO swarm ^^ morrow ftw
|
Keep doin the good work, imba.tv guys!! GoGo MorroW!! ^^
|
Morrow has insane marine splits, however his overall terran play is not on par.
|
lol donno why he waited for 6 banshe :x 4 would catch nerchio off guard but 6 total fail O.o
|
GGs. + Show Spoiler +Nerchio's gotta be morrows nemesis. He lost to him in 3 finals now.
EDIT: spoilered it just in case.
|
The idea was good, but he should have made a first push to prevent Nerchio from going fast Spire. And yeah, push at 4.
Anyways, great matches !
Ranks :
+ Show Spoiler +1 : Nerchio
2 : MorroW
3 : Grubby
4: Beastyqt
Thanks all for watching and I hope to you see you again if we make another tourney.
|
I heard your stream and I think morrow build had as goal to counter a Muta switch. I mean making a few roaches to counter Hellions in early game, then to switch mutalisk is a common build for a zerg. The big mistake Morrow did IMO is he didn't check the army composition of Nerchio for too long time. and this 2 times after he saw Nerchio doing a roaches/lings/infestors he was only beginning to tech on siege tank compo. (with a early agression vs muta/ling/banneling morrow timing was good, but not against a mass roaches composition ofc.)

great tournament tnx for invite
