The SKT vs Khan hype from the other day is a pretty good example.

Dude those are sick! Any chance they can be added to signatures like the BW ones?
What? What BW ones?
The ones that appear if you post in the BW section(at least thats the only place I've seen them).
Could you show me an example please?
Look at any post in the BW section, everyone there has them. I guess its linked to profiles like the Mood icons. I was just wondering if these could be added to that.

Probably have to talk to one of the TL staff like R1ch about it, it's definetly a good idea though, I want my TL team icon!!!

Think of it as a learning experience. He needs to get better at it anyway.
Well I predict he will probably want to open with all in, either 2 rax into 1 base medivac build or some version of 1-1-1 . If he all ins at least once and it works I predict 2-1 for Fin over core. If core plays double forge macro game and fin plays macro game I predict 2-0 or 2-1 for core , with the one loss being where core either does a pointless attack that doesn't work(like moving out at 150 supply with 3 collosus and 2-2 when Terran is finishing 2-1) or takes his third too early along with tech and gets peeled apart by drops(aka almost every pvt before this season ~_~)) .
Forgg has amazing mechanics and it shows in TvZ and TvT but it matters less when you play vs a protoss who constantly chronoboosts upgrades. You know what all that macro,micro and fancy drops will do for you when you are down an upgrade vs armor and they have guardian shield? well.. you can micro marines doing 2 damage a shot and marauders doing 6 damage a shot vs zealots all you want, it won't matter. I'll be shocked if forgg goes macro build both games unless he really thinks he's way better than core.(didn't work so well for him vs treme)
Biggest factor will be core's nerves and playstyle not how forgg plays imo.
ForGG's main problem is that he doesn't know how to engage in TvP at all.
Could you explain and compare how he engages in TvP improperly compared to a terran who does? any examples? Honestly curious. To me it always seemed more based on how the P engages (not getting caught out in open without a forward pylon, which still happens way too often) that determined how it went, thats why turtling favors P since its usually a more choked area while terran likes to be out on the map. The problem is when suddenly they start warping units into your base with a warp prism and your army isn't even near your base and you can't just warp units in, and you don't have photon cannons that can hit ground targets either, this is usually when the terran starts to fall apart in the most recent tvp macro games. But I guess maybe they just weren't engaging the protoss correctly.(whatever way that is )
These are all the things that ForGG failed to do in his game against Extreme: - Set up his army so that it will automatically engage in a concave - Split his units when they got hit by storm so they take less damage while still attacking - Split his ghosts apart from his army so that they could EMP and tank zealot damage while the marine-marauder ball attacks the zealots - Keep his army away from chokepoints - Set up multi-pronged attacks - Target-fire the gas-heavy units just prior to a fight
And it's not like he just did these in that game alone.

ohhhhhhhhhh
Lol! I know what you're talking about. Unfortunately I'm not TL's web designer. You would have to take that kind of thing to Website Feedback

A dedicated hype section is perfectly fine. But unfortunately, I don't have the time to go running around this site trying to find the proper hype material T-T
It would be better if my fellow peers could PM them to me. If then, I would GLADLY attribute them into the OP along with a dedicated Hype section

Cool, next time there's a good matchup I'll go net trawling for you
Been a while since I stayed up for Code A (EST time) instead of catching the VODs, but I gotta do it for the foreigners. C'mon Huk/Idra/Sen, if I'm gonna feel like shit all day at work the least you guys can do is win a few for me
It's redemption time for Forgg! He's looked bad since last season's code A games. I don't know what happened to him. Didn't look good in code s and didn't look good in fxo tourney.

It's 8 matches. Koreans only get stream 1 whereas there 2 streams for global viewers.
John one of the superheros of E-sports strike again. Is it Korean pride that they are going to show all the foreigners lose or something. I would think the Losira vs TheStC game would be more hyped so you would show it over a game containing a foreigner.
P.S. You really need a costume with just a giant T on it for Translator Man, spreading love and communication throughout the world.

. if he got idra would be almost a sure win with his mechanics. I wonder if he'd actually rather play losira than core considering how TvP has been going in GSL and GSTL this season.
