Almost as retarded as MLG's "we have a big long ass replay for you!" So you skip ahead to the semi's and realise you've just seen someone 2-0 up, boom. 2 games ruined.

There are more zerg than terrans, this actually gets me excited ! I may not understand some choices but hey :D

so many people predicting supernova over marineking lol
That said I'm glad there's finally a rematch between MKP and Nestea, hopefully MarineKing watched SC's games and rapes Nestea

I would assume this'll be casted by the Code A casters? I'll save my $$ in that case, but glhf to everyone who wants to watch it!

I expect the Ro8 and beyond to generate some great matches since it's Bo5 from that point forward. But I think most people really dislike Bo1 round robins for any game these days, they're all about the quickest wins.

MVP has got this already. Super hyped either way!

After the pool play, doesn't it go to then a live stage starting at the Ro8? I would be surprised if it was still replays at that point.

Yes, live stage.
Also the first group was very...average. Polt and MVP played like they were going through the motions, Line looked good since this is all he had to practice for, Curious did well with his standard play, and MC just kept making stargates. I will mark this down due to four of the five having GSL a day or two days before this group and not that they didn't care.

Searched a bit on their website, found this: "The group stage will be held online, the tournament stage will be held live at the Busan G-Star 2011 event present by Blizzard. Groups are played round-robin Bo1 (10 sets per group). The top 2 of each group will advance to the main tournament. Tournament stage is Bo3 and Grand Final is Bo5."
So it seems like the the Ro8 onwards will be live casted from Busan, which is great.

lololol, group A with 3 gsl champions again....

Hi, I have a question regarding the rankings of Group A (and any subsequent ones of a similar nature). Below, in the spoiler is the results of the first day of Team Ace Invitational.
+ Show Spoiler +So looking at the results of today's team arena, I'm a little confused. Obviously Curious won 3-1 that's fine, and MC lost 1-3, that's fine too, but for the three (MVP, Line, and Polt) who went 2-2, what determines why MVP moves on to the brackets, and the other two get left behind?

This tournament so far only shows that Bo1 should never be used in any serious tournament. ST_Curious ending last in one Bo1 group play and day later ending first in another Bo1 group play with equal level of quality opponents is all the proof against this.

+ Show Spoiler +First tiebreaker is head to head result and MVP beat both Polt and Line
