Hero vs. White-Ra O.O
Epic PvP incoming!
+ Show Spoiler +Hoping to see some special tactics ♥
|
United States4991 Posts
Didn't Fenix say he was withdrawing from NASL? Or was this game played before he withdrew?
My picks: DeMuslim 2-0 Vibe (Vibe's done better than he started off last season perhaps, but I think DeMuslim is still a tier above him) Hero 2-1 White-Ra (I think they're both players who enjoy doing cute special things, but that Hero is the overall stronger player) Lowely 2-0 Cruncher (played pretty solidly against both White-ra and Hero) I thought Fenix had withdrawn, but if not then Sheth 2-0 Fenix due to lag issues (especially terrible for dodging things like Banelings and Fungals)
|
Was Hero vs White ra played before Hero left for korea? then I think it will be ver close but if it was played when Hero is in NA ill take Hero2-0
|
Herooooo :D. Old vs new in PvP tonight
|
Lowely vs Cruncher gonna be awsome!
|
Cruncher? I thought he was inactive? o:
|
Im excited to watch Demuslim and White ra play. should be some good games between those two series.
|
|
Predictions: Demuslim Hero Lowely Sheth
|
vibe going to get crrrrrushed.
|
Sooo hyped! Not too big on the lowely and cruncher match but the rest look like they are going to be pretty epic! I hope hero wins 
|
Liking the sheth commentary Thank you <3
|
DeMu just dominating... :/ Liking Sheth on this as well.
|
|
My god I hate that Forza 4 advert, tainting a perfectly good song.
|
Sheth commentating ♥
The calendar says this is starting in a half hour... it's already on >.< lol
|
|
WTF is that demuslim opening, reapers into bunker rush, doenst recycle, 15 supply behind at min 7, then he throws 2 CC plus a starport.
|
i have been enjoying NASL for the most part this season, and sheth casting with gretorp is pretty awesome.
however...
I have a low quality stream and no chat.........i mean i understand being forced to pay for an HD quality stream, but chat as well...? i dono. it really just discourages me from watching at all. there is not a stream in the world that i could ever want to watch where i cant at least engage in an IRC style chat. doesnt make much sense to me. If there is a reason why such a service should require a payed subscription im all ears but it doesnt seem necessary.
thanks
|
+1 never effect banelings against marines. I don't understand.
|
hows nasl viewership been anyhow????

I don't remember the last time I was able to chat on the NASL stream. It makes me sad.

What's a theoretical Barracks?
|
Well now. Vibe totally threw that one away.
|
wow, awful engagement by vibe -.-
|
Hilariously bad engagement by Vibe there.
|
That was painful... Vibe is not NesTea, he can't take out thors with banes x.x

Yes, that's what I was referring to? He pretty much destroyed all of the mutas and had NOTHING to fear from 60 lings, only the 5 broods hatching right on the cliff.

Gretorp. There are. So many islands around Florida.
Please stop.

Gretorp is pretty slow lol. Every Island in the world has people on it according to Gretorp. Funny stuff! xD

I hope Sheth mails Gretorp a globe with all uninhabited islands highlighted
|
|
And again double CC, hope he defends better against mutas this time. nvm, just saw the roach warren, he's so dead if vibe makes a push with demuslim going reactor factory hellions + 2 CC.
|
It's pretty awesome how they managed to not talk about SC2 at all until 20 supply for each player.

gretorp................. christ man.

Nice attack from vibe. Lost his army but he did kill a lot of scvs.
|
demuslim is playing like shit today.
|
Rocks at the gold... on Meta? wut.
Why NASL? whyy
|
terrible games by demuslim, why would you double expand if you are terrible at defending muta harrass?
|
hmm thats interesting. demuslim losing pretty convincingly.
or maybe not lol? vibe playing bad as well
|
Sheth with the island zinger. Gretorp with the Emma Stone fail rebutal.
|
totally unimpressive play from DeMusliM
|
Wow... this game is sooo bad lol
|
DeMuslim playing incredibly poorly, but Vibe just not able to finish him off...
This series...
|
Demuslim usually doesn't play like this. wtf is going on?!?
|
|
The supply gap has been slowly narrowing...
edit: oof, 20+ worker disparity though...
|
Pretty nifty game sense by Sheth. Who says the T is ahead when he's 40 supply down? He looks pretty smart.
|
Oh wow, this is one of the worst TvZs but it's hilarious anyways...
|
Vibe gets immediate evo chamber- still no upgrades.
May cost him the series against terrible Demuslim.

lololol, this is hilarious. ViBe at 0-0 just throwing stuff away.
|
Sheth and gretorp making the same sound awesome even thought it's boring/stupid as hell
|
This game is not mvp vs nestea thats for sure.
|
Blords? Blords aren't going to do anything vs mass rines...

|
no way. is this a comeback or a fail? I can't tell.
|
This is incredibly awful but kinda funny, haha
|
What bothers me the most is that Vibe definitely has the funding to get ground upgrades. He had/has plenty of time to get them. Don't understand what Vibe could be thinking about.

Yeah, it's like the IPL3 showmatch between Lani and David.
|
Eh sloppy games from time to time are always fun to watch.
|
This game is a prime example for the power of upgrades. Doesn´t help, that Vibe has pretty bad army control. Sheth is really suffering while comentating this game.
|
Lol.... this looks like a game I would play on ladder and I'm mid masters..
|
Whoa that viking spread is really cool. First time I've seen that.
|
|
Wow what a come back. he killed so many scvs..
|
Can't wait to see this interview!
|
Bring on the special tactics war!!
|
this is what happens when you get rid of all the koreans
|
|
It's lookin like platinum night at the NASL. Worst series of games I've ever seen from Demuslim by a large margin.
|

Worst game between progamers i've seen in a while..

Demuslim should have lost this. The strange gold expo, which left natural and main undefended. Moving his army in one big chunk, leaving holes everywhere. Unsieged tanks, not splitting marines, etc.
Only thing that was decent was his macro.

Wow, this last game of the DeMuslim vs Vibe series was awesome, I mean we just saw one of the best micro and decision making during battles, which allowed so many battles to be won by the lesser army of the terran. It was an awesome comeback after that huge baneling hit on those marines mid-game as the terran was near the fourth of Vibe. Huge props to Demuslim for showing us a good game! Damn!

But I am sure Vibe can play better, too.

I had been hearing a lot of good things about DeMusliM, but that was just ugly. Luckily ViBe played worse.

he's just taking out the rocks to make whitera think he's still attacking

The only positive thing, is he played pretty well at IPL and considering this is NASL, this happened a couple of weeks ago, so he is still playing good. Also I watched his stream the other day, he seemed to be playing well.
|
hero played this map correctly after that failed 4gate.
|
I know neither of them play P, but it's pretty clear that Hero was just stalling to extend his lead.
|
Hero is smart, and sentries are good. :D
|
Bad attack by White-Ra, the Immortal just did so much damage in that attack.

Not really. He got wrecked by Ret in... the open bracket, I think it was? It wasn't even close.
This is Demuslim:

Hero is such a boss. I can't wait to see how he does in pool play at MLG.

Seems like Colossus got Dragoon's AI in SC2.

That was pretty smart play by Hero. Well done, tricking White-Ra like that with the rock attack + expand, and using sentries well.

Right. He did as well as Machine, Spanishiwa, and KawaiiRice. Very nice guys, but DeMuslim's been suuuper-hyped up and I wish he'd show some really good results.

Don't be an idiot. Look at demuslim's record lately in nasl/mlg etc, he's beat a lot of good players. Demuslim had to fight all the way through the open bracket to make it to the championship bracket again in IPL3 just like last mlg, it's a lot more taxing than pool play. So what he lost to ret after that? Ret beats a lot of good players.
Demuslim had a bad day today (rather whenever this was actually taped, aka ages ago for nasl), happens to everyone, and he still won. No reason to flame the guy, he was out of commission for a few months with a broken arm and yet he is now still pretty good, he works really hard and he is improving rapidly.

White-Ra just got psyblocked for a full warp-in round x.x
|
Why does whitera transition from the 3 stalker rush into 4gate? I thought the whole idea behind the 3 stalker rush was to be able to defend against an offensive 4gate while transitioning into robo/blink tech.
|
Ouch, white ra walks into FF blocks in both games, gets his army annihilated both times.
Poor white ra.
|
lol that forcefield spam when the white-ra left
|
wished HerO played this good back in IPL3...

Hero just totally smacked down White-Ra in both those games. Such solid play from Hero. Wow.
Very well played.

It's pretty popular nowadays, Hwangsin and (more importantly) Naniwa do this all time (see Naniwa v Genius in GSTL Game 7, where Genius scouts the 3stalker rush and then grabs a double gas, proceeds to lose).

During IPL he had to play Puma in the open bracket and lost to 1/1/1, there were also supposedly alot of technical problems during his game, his computer lagged really badly so they decided not to play his pool and randomize it instead .. or something like that

Cruncher looks pretty solid. Really like his play. It stands out from many other static protoss players like HuK and the Koreans that play very uninspirational imo.
|
yay cruncher! It sucks that he doesn't get to play as much anymore.
|
Cruncher has one the best names in SC2. If I were him, I'd just use "Abdulaziz" for my battlenet ID.
|
lol Gretorp's like "Whatever, fuck you, I'm funny."
He is funny though.
|
I want Sheth to cast himself
Just as long as there's no more talk about zombies...
|
Sucks that Cruncher is quitting he's doing quite well this season and at events in general.
|
Gretorp said that 1/7 of all people are color blind? That's about 14%...
"About 8 percent of males, but only 0.5 percent of females, are color blind in some way or another, whether it is one color, a color combination, or another mutation.[15][16] " ~http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blindness
Sigh. This isn't the first factoid I've noticed that Gretorp has dropped.
|
Hmmm, I never really like it when a solo cast has to occur. It either gets a bit monotonous (as we can hear with Gretorp at the moment), or the cast is filled with awkward pauses at different intervals.
|
|
Sheth didn't even have to morph any banelings. Bit of a letdown from Fenix.
|
Standard korean Code B strategy.
|
Sheth is too good at defending those bunker rushes
|
Damn, Sheth is good at holding 2 rax.
|
Fenix looked like he had a great position there with his marines.
Sheth said "Nope".
|
Why is Fenix pulling off an all-in strat again? Didn't work either time.
|
Wow, pretty cheesy play from Fenix, not impressed. Especially cause he seems to suck at it.
|
Shawn Simon!!!
Strong star-sense in this sibilant slayer of SCVs!
|
|
Umm. Wow. Fenix... you're on a Korean team now, right?
|
|
SHETH SO SMART!
FENIX SO... all-innish? Since when? Whatever. I can't stand the Terran all-in x.x
Glad that Sheth stomped Fenix.
|
Wow, that's like the Yellow vs. Skew series. 3 minute Bo3
|
Terribad play from Fenix. How disappointing. Not a big fan of solocasts. Gretorp is monotonous enough already. Pleased to see Sheth and Hero win. :D

I get the impression he is fed up with playing with a high latency from the Korea on the NA server, and just all ined to either win or lose quickly.

I hope so, I remember him saying that it was almost impossible to play with that latency.

Yellow won, it was in Brood War at a Blizz invitational a long time ago. Sorry I don't have link.

Actually your WRONG, Saga used map fair advantages similar to TSL to make the lag more fair so yea. Your wrong. wrong.

The only positive thing, is he played pretty well at IPL and considering this is NASL, this happened a couple of weeks ago, so he is still playing good. Also I watched his stream the other day, he seemed to be playing well.
I watched DeMuslim ladder a few weeks ago after he'd come back from a week's holiday, and his play was completely lackluster - he lost several matches to players he would normally stomp. Perhaps this series was played around then. I suspect his play is particularly sensitive to lack of practice.
Day[9] also commented once on DeMuslim having particularly bad tournament nerves, which can't help.
|
One thing I've noticed about DeMusliM from watching his stream, and I think it is one of his best qualities as a player and it was something that was on display in Games 2 and 3 is that when he gets behind, whether be because of build order, or a mistake like have an army get taken out in the middle of the map - his is somehow, usually through micro able to claw and scrap his way back into the game.
He was soooo far behind in game 3 against vibe but he kept dealing with the harrassment without leaving too much army and was able to claw his way back into the game eventually winning. And to be sure, poor play from Vibe definitely was a factor, but still.

The day of casting this may have been one of the saddest days of Sheth's life.

I'm really enjoying Orb's commentary. He's comfortable speaking, knowledgeable, and articulates well. I really wouldn't mind seeing him commentate more regularly.
|
gretorp should really stop using the phrase: "he's basically saying that.." would really improve his commentating.
And yeah, too bad white-ra lost 
|
To me it looks like whitera doesnt know how to play pvp. He goes for a defensive build in order to defend against 4 gate, thus forces the enemy to play defensive himself (hero gets a second gas), but then whitera proceeds to transition from that defensive opening into an agressive one which can never be successful after you have forced the enemy to go into the defensive.
His decision making doesnt make any sense right now.

What the hell is Fenix doing in this series? Two marine/scv rushes, both fail horribly. Who goes marine/scv on Crevasse and cross position Taldarim? Makes no sense.

From the LR thread for W1D4, September 18: "Did he basically just say that this was played in August?"
From LR for W2D3, September 24: "A week before Valencia, holy shit. It is pretty freaking old." In the interview with Idra he talked about the upcoming DreamHack Valencia Invitational. DHV was played September 17.
In W3D3, October 01, Gretorp talk about Naniwa in Dignitas. Naniwa was officially in compLexity September 21.
Then we have the Strelok interview blunder. Yeah..let's just try to forget that one. >.<
I don't mind that the games and the cast is kinda "old", but let's keep it real, m'kay?

cruncher you sexy beast, will you be the protoss savior?

its really pissing me off that they think i should pay money for chat right now... i just cant wrap my head around it and its annoying night after night.
Your stream is not made of solid gold.
Gretorp's commentary is not made of solid gold either.
So why?

Vibe vs Demusilm was awesome! Last game was so exciting. I am sure Vibe was kicking himself after that game. Demusilm also looked very unconcerned with keeping his scvs safe from banelings. Also, Thanks for Getorp for thinking about the color blind. :D
