aLive 2-0 Cruncher
ThorZaIN 2-0 CatZ
Ret 2-1 SeleCT (Fun Fact: Ret and SeleCT have been in the same division for every NASL season. In season 1 and 2 it was Ret beating SeleCT 2-1 so I am just gonna assume the same thing happens)
LoWeLy 2-1 IdrA

Hm, If this was prepatch, I would've thought 2 - 0 for thorzain. After the patch though, anything can happen. Thorzain needs to win to grab a playoff shot.

CrunCher 0 - 2 Alive
Catz 2 - 1 ThorZaIN
Ret 2 - 1 SeleCT
LoWeLy 2 - 0 IdrA

^ Not really basing those off anything, just wild stabs in the dark.


This is the most interesting group in that it's the only one where none of the seeds are decided yet and it all comes down to the last round of games, should be a good group of matches. Fingers crossed for no walk-overs or DQ's. Throwing all my support behind Lowley and Ret in this one.

Actually he only needs a win to have a playoff spot for sure. At 4-4 he could still get one and it is likely he would, since at 4-4, +2 (at worst) he would be the best of the 4-4 people. Right now Cloud is the cutting point of the playoffs, so Tzain might already be in regardless. I'm gonna work out the math now.

Edit: Yeah, Thorzain and Nightend are both in the wildcard playoffs. Select, aLive and Polt COULD pass Thorzain (worst case), leaving him as the last seed to get into the playoffs.

Edit2: Shit, I hadn't updated Dimaga's score, one sec

Edit3: Ok, there is a wacky scenario where aLive and Polt pass Thorzain, Select and Nightend, leaving a threeway tie for the last spot. So they aren't guaranteed.

Ret is playing to tie with Demuslim for playoff seed. If Ret drops a map, he has to hope that MC loses 0-2 to tie for last seed, and Demuslim is automatically in. If Ret wins 2-0, forces a tie with Demuslim (and possibly MC if MC loses 1-2). If Ret loses, he gets playoff and not finals.

Please don't ever show SC games ever again until he decides to play properly at least once per series.
Every single time I've ever seen him play, as far as I remember, he has either cheesed, or tried to cheese (and then had to switch when it gets scouted).
He's such a horrible person to watch, it's ridiculous.

I understand you're wanting to cast the final rounds of the open brackets, but man, SC is just so horrible to watch games of. I don't understand how he's still around when all he does is cheese almost every single game he plays.
HOLY CHECK!

I've never understood people's strong aversion to cheesy games - I'd rather watch a cheese rush than a long cautious 4 base game that has only one big battle at the end. I wish they would be called "micro-intensive openers" instead of "cheese".

Masa is Canadian, is he not? Rotti keeps saying he's Korean.

Nightmares isn't a Korean team, I'm pretty sure.

these guys are both playing pretty sloppy. masa has really bad engagements; forsen has bad creep spread and should have realized masa had a third base when he snuck the zergling in.

I don't have a problem with cheese.
Cheese is fine. A player who basically ONLY cheeses is not fine. Seriously, nearly every game he plays, he opens in a cheesy way if he can, be it proxy starport, double rax as in these games, or some other cheese. It's what he does all the time.
Someone who CAN cheese and does cheese sometimes is good.
SC is like Idra, but the opposite. For most of his early career, Idra never ever cheesed, which made him bad and boring, because he never mixed it up, and was predictable.
SC equally always cheeses, so he's also predictable and it's simply a bad way to play. You need to mix it up, not play the same way every single time you play.

Forsen a-moving infestors at the front of his army into a few fungaled marines.
And then complaining about lag.

Sorry mate, but lag doesn't cause you to have really crap army control, being bad at army control does. When Forsen plays even close to well, he can complain about his opponent, until then, he's just being a complete baby.
Maybe Masa didn't deserve to win, but Forsen deserved to win even less, so Masa should have won on balance anyway, and did.

Hasn't sC spent the last year or so dealing with a collapsed lung? As someone who started playing in a time when lots of 2rax and early terran cheeses defined the game, he may not have spent much time learning macro builds while having lung surgery. It may be frustrating for you to watch, but give the guy a break, he's had horrible medical issues and is trying to make a living playing this game.

Bitterdam just said Ret is playing for first place in the division, but Alicia is +7, 6-2 when Ret can be at best +7, 6-2, and Alicia beat Ret, how does Ret ever overtake Alicia?

Edit: Apparently Liquipedia has an error and Alicia is only +6. Or did NASL make an error?

Yeah he can't, Alicia wins the group for sure.

Edit: I'm 90% sure Liquipedia is right. Just added up all the matches and what we have there is right based on that. And the nasl.tv site has nothing updated.

Edit: Apparently Liquipedia has an error and Alicia is only +6.


Yeah he can't, Alicia wins the group for sure.

Edit: I'm 90% sure Liquipedia is right. Just added up all the matches and what we have there is right based on that. And the nasl.tv site has nothing updated.


Well, NASL put up a graphic with the standings and had Alicia at +6. The discrepancy matters and should be resolved.

I just looked at every live report thread for this division, Liquipedia is right.

Alicia is in-fact +7. The standings were wrong in the graphic, should be fixed now.

I remember someone working for the GESL smack talking NASL about how his event was gonna destroy NASL. 2000 viewers there between two streams, 3500 watching Cruncher vs aLive XD

Edit: Their LoL stream is doing really well though.

Every single time I've ever seen him play, as far as I remember, he has either cheesed, or tried to cheese (and then had to switch when it gets scouted).
He's such a horrible person to watch, it's ridiculous.

I understand you're wanting to cast the final rounds of the open brackets, but man, SC is just so horrible to watch games of. I don't understand how he's still around when all he does is cheese almost every single game he plays.


I've never understood people's strong aversion to cheesy games - I'd rather watch a cheese rush than a long cautious 4 base game that has only one big battle at the end. I wish they would be called "micro-intensive openers" instead of "cheese".

I don't have a problem with cheese.
Cheese is fine. A player who basically ONLY cheeses is not fine. Seriously, nearly every game he plays, he opens in a cheesy way if he can, be it proxy starport, double rax as in these games, or some other cheese. It's what he does all the time.
Someone who CAN cheese and does cheese sometimes is good.
SC is like Idra, but the opposite. For most of his early career, Idra never ever cheesed, which made him bad and boring, because he never mixed it up, and was predictable.
SC equally always cheeses, so he's also predictable and it's simply a bad way to play. You need to mix it up, not play the same way every single time you play.

I never said they have shown him before, but he has played before many times in various competitions, and always cheeses.


Hasn't sC spent the last year or so dealing with a collapsed lung? As someone who started playing in a time when lots of 2rax and early terran cheeses defined the game, he may not have spent much time learning macro builds while having lung surgery. It may be frustrating for you to watch, but give the guy a break, he's had horrible medical issues and is trying to make a living playing this game.

Yes, but according to Trimaster, sC also spent most of his time playing League of Legends instead of Starcraft 2 until he fell out of Code A.

Well, to be fair, you probably need lungs more to play LoL than SC2, since you need to communicate with your team and stuff

The front page says Catz receives the FF win, however the Liquipedia page suggests ThorZain took the win. Which is it?

Here's someone who read MVP.
Get 6 queens, can't die against anything terran do before 10min.

I don't understand Select build tho.
Getting stim, +1 bio, but then double armory ?

It's pretty funny how even 8 Blue flame hellion can't stop creep spread.
Sometimes Select scanned the same place 3 times and could not get all the tumors. :/

Poor Thorzain. Almost impossible for him to make wildcards now. Needs Select to lose 0-2 and Polt to lose, then plays a tiebreaker with Nightend and Select and possibly Polt

LOL Zerg is actually pretty bullshit. Terran needs a speed overlord nowadays to scout roach ling pushes (I would call it all-in, because it is as strong as an all-in, but being able to drone behind it...)

Seems like Ret is guaranteed at least a tiebreaker match with Demuslim for a spot in the finals.

Indeed. If MC loses it could be a 3 way tie or just Demu and Ret in.

Terran wins everything. Every noob can split marines, drop, be the aggressor, and macro behind it. That's why you see so many godly foreign terrans. Ret had to spread creep, build workers, and be passive. This stlye is much more difficult and the reason why there are barely any good korean zergs and no good foreign zergs.
SC2 was doomed from the start.

Almost as if they could use some sort of magical "base scan" ability that would be a good thing to put in a future patch perhaps...

Terran is by far the weakest foreign race.

Because each scan is magical? What if the zerg hides the massing army? Or, if he's droning, you've given up a mule that would help you get caught up.

Yeah it's a wonder that Terran can do anything but split their SCVs and then type "gg", you're right

Gratz Ret, that game of Antiga was just insane. It really is a shame about the walkovers this season. I mean there will always be walkovers what with the ridiculous amounts of potential clashes with weekend tournaments and occasional time zone mis-haps. However the vast amount of walkovers in the last week just makes it seem that there are certain players who just can't be bothered despite the potential reward of $150. I think conceiving a walkover should hold a penalty of -3 points rather than just -2 that they may of got if they'd played anyway.

Haha, you should test that theory and just completely screw around with division 5's scores tomorrow and see how long it takes Gretorp to figure out how Jinro managed to advance to the finals.
