That's a PvP not a TvP. Maybe Goldfish meant to upload a different game?

BW TvP is totally different than SC2.

Bah, thanks for catching that >.<.

Here's PvT finals (this time, I am actually checked to see that's the right video >.>):

+ Show Spoiler +

Anyway, I'd say that Rainbow vs Puck game 1 really is close to PvT in BW.

Hey everyone, the FRB Grand Tournament got a spot in the NASL North American Update with Frodan! The FRB GT part starts at 1:25, and you can check it out here:

http://nasl.tv/Videos/20120422w2-north-american-update-with-frodan

A pretty fair summary I'd say. There definitely has been some fast early aggression, though I'm not quite sure I'd call it cheese. None of the really cheesy strategies like cannon rushing, proxy 2 rax or a 6 pool have been seen in the tournament so far, but I do understand their point. They do mention how awesome some of the games have been (ST_Rainbow vs. PuCK was so well played!) and I hope we can give them even more entertaining games in the upcoming rounds. :D

So the NASL is watching, and you should too! You can see the VoD's at www.youtube.com/wiseoldsenex, with each round specifically at:
The Round of 16: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB2653107EFF43915
The Round of 8: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE4FE9B28EF0E4EA0

We also go live for the Semi-Finals on Friday the 27th at 8pm Eastern before wrapping the tournament with the finals on May 4th, also at 8pm Eastern. You can watch at www.cybersports.tv or www.twitch.tv/pullsc

Thanks to all our amazing fans and all the people who have been tuning in. You guys are what makes this event possible, and we can't say enough how much we appreciate your support.

See you all at the Semi-Finals!

Did Ganzi play his match yet, or was he too busy with MLG to play it so far?

Ganzi is going to be playing against ClashShew on Wednesday the 25th and we'll probably be casting the games then. Unfortunately he's been too busy with MLG and travel to get the games in, but he'll be able to play on the 25th and, if he moves into the next round, play the next set that same day, so there shouldn't be any delays in the Semi-Finals or Finals.

As far as like an open would go, I think doing an open qualifier makes the most sense. Like having an open qualifier, combined with seeding some players from the previous tournament, and some invites for other players (like pros who would be less inclined to play if they had to spend the time going through an open qualifier, but might play if they are invited to the ro32 or ro16 and there's a nice prize pool.)

That's what I was thinking anyway. Just thought I'd mention it.

My only disappointment with this tournament was that during the cast of myself v rainbow game 1, the casters didn't notice I was using overlords w/ drops to pick up drones as a way to dodge hellion harass.

Yeah, I thought that was so cool when I saw you doing it. I was surprised it wasn't mentioned by the casters.

I thought we did mention that, but apparently we got distracted by something else. I noticed it during the cast and it was a really nice move. Definitely looking forward to what you can pull off against ViBe. There's gonna be a lot riding on that match, not only for advancement, but because it's a teamkill.

How are you guys prepping for that? Playing with other teammates? Got any 'spezial taticks' prepped? :D

However, the winners' match against vileIllusion was unable to be played in time, and will be released some time over the weekend. Sorry for the inconvenience!
