I will see what I can do about getting replays and other closing tidbits collected and posted somewhere. I may be able to see about a rebroadcast later this week.

Again.. thank you for all of the support.

Ret is as far above IdrA in current level as Stephano is above Ret.

Stephano v. Polt.... mind = blown....

Such a close, back and forth matchup. I can't count on my fingers how many times I thought a game was certain victory for one player or the other... but then proceeded to go on for another 15-20 minutes.

It seemed like each player had an answer for what the other was doing EVERY time. It just blows my mind.

It's easy (as a spectator) to say Polt made so many mistakes. Stephano made mistakes too (OCD was killing me every time I saw Stephano missing drones on gas...). Bottom line is, they're both human.

Most entertaining match I've watched in quite some time.

Probably one of the most cost efficient tournaments in starcraft 2 history. The Polt vs Stephano scenario worked wonders, was really exciting!

Idra, yeah, Ret, he's getting there - he did great in the Red Bull LAN.

Beat Parting, Naniwa, and SaSe.

We need more series like Polt vs Stephano. It's pretty rare that you see so much action in every part of the game.

Excellent tournament. They used BW music between games, had a K-pop group (kinda, it was great nonetheless), used the USA national anthem when Stephano beat Polt in the winner's bracket finals, which was hilarious, they got great casters and invites and a funny Quake Live FFA at the end of the first day.

Overall an great tournament and I hope other live events get on the K-pop train too.

Yeah he did really well, yet Ret is still below Stephano, and by quite the margin.

Has Naniwa ever beaten Ret in a BoX match?

the finals were, if not one of the the best, then at least one of the most exiting and entertaining series I've seen in a while. Great show.

Good tournament but the observer pissed me off too frequently. They missed a lot of the action evident in the minimap

As someone who attended the event and spent a lot of time both in the auditorium spectating and backstage, the chemistry for this event was off the charts. Everyone had a great time and you could feel the passion for esports fill any room there! I can't wait for more events of this calibre that was absolutely driven by the community like the Lone Star Clash was.... any other universities out there should definately use the TeSPA template for this event... I know for a fact that TeSPA would open up there methods for throwing an event like this to any university who is passionate and wants to see something like this happen at their own university! :D
