Ops. Fixed.

It would be so great if the scoreboard actually had the names of both players. I can't understand for the life of me why you would put SlayersCella on the scoreboard if its Ryung who is playing. This has been going on for the entire tournament and it is really obnoxious.
|
Another example: Illusion is playing someone named Zerg right now in a TvT. To figure out who he was playing I had to go check the brackets, where I found out it was Ryung. Seriously this is just terrible, and it is so easy to fix too.

We have to borrow the GESL2 stream for a bit. Riot patched the League servers and caused us some serious problems and delays, so we need a second stream to play the delayed match.
Riot has a server issues, causing us to push the 3rd place match back.

This is a pretty fun game even though it is so horribly unrefined. It gives me hope for a more well practiced sky terran late game

Considering how stupidly strong Infestors are against Air idk about that.

I didn't mean a full on sky Terran. Just a more well refined version of what Dream was doing (MMM + ghost + raven/viking). Maybe even a bc for tanking a few corruptor shots. The ravens especially showed some really nice things.

Ravens are so freaking vulnerable considering their spells cost a fortune and are basically melee range . For 100/200 they should be ALOT better. I mean Infestor spells cost 25/75 and 100 Energy .What do Raven spells cost ? 50/100 and whopping 125 . Especially 50 Energy for Autoturret and HSM at 125 is a joke. Those spells are worse than Infested Terrans and Fungal Growth but cost way more...

Zerg domincance , suprise ? I think not ...

Yeah Dream is a really exceptional player. What a dominating performance.

I just checked in to see if it was going to be all Zergs in the semi's. Looks like it is. :D

Ouch.... 3 ZvZs left. That's kind of disappointing

Well ZvZ is one of the best matchups going right now, but I would say it would be nice to have some diversity.

zvz is great if it gets past the early game. Really diverse in playstyles and strategies being developed right now specially in Korea.

I can't believe monster lost with a 40supply lead at one point.

I really like the casting by the Asian guy (Chinese? I'm Chinese and I can't even tell..) He's got a good voice for commentating.

WP by Monster. viOlet just seemed really unsure of what he wanted to do. ;/

So many zergs on the ladder these days. I can 1/1/1 and win most games against protoss when laddering, but I have no answer for zergs. ZvZ is probably the second worst matchup behind PvP. Once it gets pass the ling baneling micro stage and goes into the roach stage, there's no comeback.

The common denominator in every Zerg mu is the strengh of the Infestors . It's so strong its basically a core unit in every ideal Zerg-army no matter who and what you play against . Other than the basic units there's not a single unit that is this omni-present especially not caster units. If that doesn't tell you there's something wrong with this unit i don't know what is.
|
So many sponsors, a lot of good players, yet so few viewers.
|
Wow, viOLet playing soo good right now! I think he wins this tourney!

Fungal on ultras is so odd looking.

I'm a zerg and I generally agree with this. The problem is that if you nerf the infestor's fungal (cause let's be serious no one uses neural unless vs mech, and infested terrans are more of a 'no mana for fungal' use) then zerg loses to protoss badly and even something like MMM with full upgrades becomes impossible.

I would say it needs a nerf against Air-Units not like not hitting Air-Units but reduced damage to them and maybe not rooting them as well. Especially the Bonus damage to armored is just stupid against Air-Units because it wasn't even meant for them when it was implemented . It was more for Blink Stalkers since Zergs struggled with them.
|
an all zerg top 4, who would have guessed this would happen?
|
Monster just won the tourney imo. Both him and violet are much better than Golden/Sleep.
|
LOL the casting sounds like a horse race. I like it

God damnit... nice try violet.

Actually that wouldn't be that bad. It could make mutas viable in zvz, which wouldn't be bad.

OMG this is the best part of the tournament
|
|

Wow, From the playoffs on Zergs have not lost a series to another race, dropping a grand total of 2 maps out of 14(Both by Golden). Craziness!
Before anyone starts bashing me for balance whine.... I'm NOT whining about this, I actually think the better player won in all of the series. Just thought it was a cool little stat to share!

Oooh, that's a pretty cool statistic! The Zergs have indeed been strong this tournament, and of course viOLet and Monster etc. have been on such form recently!

That was such an entertaining series - and the pre-tournament favourite goes out! Golden vs Sleep coming up next on main stage followed by the finals - this is going to be epic!

|
Golden vs Sleep have a big rivalry. I wish they were still on Slayers. They would've completed the intra-team rivalry set along with Ryung vs MMA and Crank vs Puzzle.
|
Stream die
|
Did the stream die for anyone else?
|
Back now. Sleep takes game 2. It's 1-1 now.
|
WTFUCKING FUCK it was best of five semi-finals? I left when violet was up 2-1 over monster because i was only really watching for monster (I love team MVP) but then i come back to see the finals and he's in it
|
this is more of a LoL tournament isnt it? And wow so many zergs.

WP by Sleep. Still think Monster is going to take it though..

Kulas Extreme? Ravine?
Also: ZvZ , ZvZ, and ZvZ. Props to the casters for not getting bored 
|
Everyone's lagging out During the finals too x.x
|
wow all of them are lagging in sc2 only, weird.

Sleeps's motto - "When you get ahead, attack into 10 spine crawlers."
|
Sleep too stronk.. CMON MONSTER!
|
|
|
it's really sad that this tourney isn't getting more viewers. even though it turned into zvz gsl lite from the ro8 onwards, there's still a ton of good players here, and fun casters too.
|
AMAZING ZvZ game 3... I won't spoil it for anyone but that was one of the finest ZvZ's I have seen. Personally, I am cheering for Sleep to take the finals!
|
I love playing and watching ZvZ. It's an acquired taste!
|
Sleep should win this. He's so good and gets looked over in every tournament. I like Monster, but this is the time for Sleep!
Also would be a great win in xSix too.
|
also good format. every finals should be bo7
|
So many Z and P so far today. I need more T.
|
Just watched G3 of the finals. Really nice game, though it's funny to listen to the casters continually say "it looks like this engagement will be huge for Monster!" WHILE Sleep lands infinity fungals over Monster's entire army.
In any event, thanks for the tournament; it's been a fun one to watch!
|
Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
|
|
|
underwhelming final game... hate it when that happens. still a great tourney overall though.
|
As expected. Monster is a monster. MVP has so many good players.

Thank you all for the support. The GESL Staff put a lot of time and effort into this. Every event will have it's bumps... but these guys worked so hard to get over them. Always room for improvement.. including our (CSN) administration of the event.... and all issues will be addressed, cleaned up, tweaked and done better as we all move forward!
BTW.. the SC2 stuff ran like a champ! (minus a little extra down time at times)... sorry to the LoL fans who had to sit through some issues that were out of our control!
