Will there be an english cast though. That is the question.
|
Aaaaah do I root for BoxeRs team or do I root for Jaedong?? I'm really not sure...
This isn't listed in the upcoming events btw.
|
Jaedong's picture in the banner looks like he hasn't sleep for days. Those bags under his eyes...

Ahhhh, SKT too scary when they can play Bisu SC1 and Sun SC2. Fantasy dominates both games, so he can be used whenever and do well. Best is also very good SC2, and he might not be amazing SC2, but still better than most.
And then Sun as ace and already destroyed Jaedong 2-0 in WCS Korea? Yikes.

Jaedong has likely spent every waking hour playing zvp vs people like Hero and MC to prepare for Sun. I would love to see a twist and have Fantasy sent out as ace instead of Sun. Also, I am hoping for bisu in sc2 to see how much he has improved in the last few weeks. He finally has been showing signs of rapid improvement.
|
I don't think they'll send Jaedong for ace vs Sun this time. I think it will be BaBy vs By.Sun if we get there.
|
Why did they have to meet so early ;;
|
Ah finally SPL match thread in this forum, thanks opterown!

Jaedong fighting! Can't wait to watch this tonight :D

This today!?!?! It's not on the calendar ;o
|
If a team plays a player in BW day one, he has to play Sc2 on day two right? so i guess best players will come out on the first day to play the same game again in the third match. Or is the third day free pick?

If there's an esports god, and I'm not saying there is, but assuming he's still watching over us. Please. Please smite Skt1 those smug smug bastards. Skt has and will always be everything that is dark and nefariousness and wrong in starcraft. Skt is the team of shit zergs, not zergs who can't win, but zergs whose only purpose is to abuse a broken ZvP mu and to coinflip other superior zergs. Skt is the team with every advantage money can bring, one that can buy stars and coaches and practice partners. Skt is the team of protoss. Protoss. Dirty fucking protoss. Skt is the team that crammed boxer and oov into an empty, infuriatingly chinless vessel. A terran, blessed with bonwja training, too naturally unskilled to claim his birthrate doomed forever to wallow in the shadow of the natural born terran king.
If this is truly the last time Team 8, son of hwaseung and lecaf before that, will do battle with this darkness let there be justice. Let bw end the way it was supposed too, with good triumphing over evil one last time. Thats all I ask, amen. Fuck skt1

First of all, anyone knows what are the rules for the play-off regarding sending players to play BW/SC2? Imo there are 3 possibilities:
1.) Nothing changes, same rules stay, players playing BW needs to play SC2 in next match and vice-versa. Regardless of anything (except for ace matches, of course).
2.) Teams can send out their strongest players for both games in every match - for example Bisu would probably play BW in every match in this Bo3.
3.) Combination of both, players that play BW in first match need to play SC2 in the second and vice-versa, and if it comes to deciding third match, every team can play whoever they wish in whatever game. This option makes the most sense considering the format, imo, but who knows, maybe theres something else and I am totally wrong here.
And for todays match, imo SKT > T8:
SKT can field better team in BW imo, in SC2 it depends mostly on who gets matched against whom - I am pretty confident Jaedong can take his opponents, same goes for Fantasy and by.Sun and to a lesser extent Baby - everything depends on who goes against whom. And if it should come to the Ace match, I think it would be Jaedong vs by.Sun and in that case, i think by.Sun would win (he seems like one of the best, if not the best, player from KESPA. Jaedong looks like one of the higher tiers but certainly not the best KESPA can offer). I will be rooting for T8 though :>
|
I hope T8 whoops SKT in the tace match. Show by.sun what pressure really is. Stare that guy down and destroy him in his wake.

I'm pretty sure in proleague, the quarter and semifinal matches are best of 3 (if that's what it says on liquipedia). That is, they play against each other as teams at most three times. The final is just a one off grand final.
I.e. This match has 9 BW sets and SC2 sets at most, split over three separate days.
That's how it worked last season: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/2011-2012_Proleague_Season_1/Play-Off - With KT vs. CJ for example, they had three seperate matches, with the scores 4-1, 2-4 and 4-0, leaving a 2-1 overall score for KT.

first you complain about ZvP being broken, implying that you feel sorry for Protoss. Then you say protoss is scum and dirty.
WHICH WILL IT BE??? You can only choose to complain about one ..

It kinda did. This proleague season isn't really justifiable as 'the first SC2 season' either.
It may go down as the black sheep that nobody takes seriously or wants to talk about.

I'm pretty sure they mainly focus on sc2. With bw literally down to it's last few games I just don't see them practicing bw very much at all.

Jaedong hwaiting! I'm not even sure who I want to win the series but I want lots of games
|
|
|
|
|
he cancelled the salvage, that's pretty sick
|
the real question is:
Does Fantasy GG Timing apply as well in SC2?
|
Transfuse on the overlord lol
|
|
|
|
|
thats such a pitiful marine madivac army
|
JD's creep spread is so much better than it was at the start of the season.
Edit: Excellant pickup, Fanta
|
This is the same medivac harass that made Nestea look chobo over in WCS, but Jaedong is holding it so well.
|
Jaedong handling fantasy drop attacks really well. Much better than nestea tried
|
what is jdjd waiting for?

fantasy looked like he won the attack but jaedong somehow had so much reinforcements he crushed the subsequent push

|
|
|

|
man they came a long way...so proud =D

Awesome game! GG fantasy! though I wanted Jaedong to win that game
|
|
|
Not exactly Code S level play from Jaedong, but it's so close, it just needs more refinement. Nice play from Fantasy though, he really seems to understand SC2 well.
|
anybody still complaining about pl matches? this was awesome
but im heartbroken for t8... and i should really sleep -.-
|
Good macro. His control was a bit hard to watch, but he kept those units coming. Well played.
|
That was a great game, this thread has too little people
|
pretty bad engagements throughout the game by jd, sending the lings in the front to get obliterated and then the ultras..
|
Nice conservative play from Fantasy, really looked comfortable in the early lategame there.
|
They are improving so fast, this is just crazy. x_x
|
Jaedong with such a bad engagement at Fantasy's 4th, while losing his 4th AND 5th at the same time. He really had that game, too bad
Great persistence from Fantasy though.

Ya. Idra style. Get those fatties up front!
I was hoping, with his star-sense, he was further ahead than I thought and could afford it... apparently not.
|
Fantasy is simply to good, The decisions and multi task during the battles... just amazing.
|
|
|
I like Jaedong's pure ling into super-fast hive style (I think it's cribbed from Stephano, though). If his infestor control were a little better, he could've avoided losing so many, and probably would've won. Ah well, Ace match
Fantasy's multi-tasking is unsurprisingly good, but it's also a lot of fun to watch. These games are so much better than SPL of two months ago.
|
I am a bit worry for JD in Code S and fantasy is gold in PL playoff.
|
|
|
SKT1 will go for the kill
by.Rain vs. TYTY
|
No wonder Nestea lost lol. Fantasy is already a monster at sc2. Ridiculous.

Considering Fantasy would do well in Code S the way he's playing, i'm not too worried. JD had a far better showing than Nestea did

I agree, pretty sure Fantasy would not look out of place vs. any Zerg.

Sending a protoss is smart by Team 8. It takes away skill out of the equation as much as possible.

wow, wtf... wasnt this a real ingame bug for the players?
|
Was that a pathing mistake by Sun? just seemed to get caught horribly out of position when he had the game won
|
Well, that certainly was a unique ending :|
At least we get one game closer to the Jaedong ACE. I'm rooting for T8, man

Sang looks kind of ripped. He must be hitting the gym pretty often.

There was a lag spike, and it caused Sun to end up in a really awful position where he was surrounded by Tripods. Somehow.
Anyway, it's SC2 PvP. Can't even be mad, Rain.

Game. There was a "waiting for player" screen
Might not have been "lag" exactly (could be a computer issue, like when MarineKing's computer infamously died at a GSTL finals, forcing a regame when he was about to lose), but it was definitely an issue that affected the players.

Ya, but you never know what it looked like for the player. It could have been one of those awesome moments where the game goes really fast for a second and all your units are getting killed when you gain control again.

Thats because of the players and the outcomes. There have been a couple with White Ra, and 1 I saw on Daybreak where the players ended up trading bases and playing on opposite sides, that are really fun... but... on the whole I would say they produce a smaller percentage of "exciting" or "good" games than a regular game of Stracraft- by quite a significant amount. Even though of course, there are exceptions.

Base trades can be amazing sometimes. There was some PvP (MC vs HongUn?) where one player had one pylon left and it was under attack but he killed the other guys pylon first.
Often they were boring.
That one just now was amazing. Worst-timed lag spike ever.
|
Okay, so apparently the issue was with the OGN Obs' computer, and it caused the game to freak out. Weird.

Watching the replay, did not look like the lag caused the bad positioning... Sun donated two archons, 4 stalkers, a couple of immortals going the wrong direction around the ramp.

Yeah, the donated archons predate the lag, actually. No excuses there
Every time a BW player loses an SC2 game due to bad pathfinding, an angel gets its wings.

Or if Baby wins and we get a Jaedong ACE. Either of those two things.

His ovie saw the gas and he saw a late rax and factory, probably didn't want to get the drone trapped.

Woah, flawless defense there. Only losing 5 drones. BaBy in a hard spot now.

That was off-timed, if only BaBy had went a few seconds later.

The blue flame hellions just didn't do enough damage, Baby should've gg'd as soon as he forgot to lift his third orbital

Why would you do that Sacsri.

Yup bl/corr/infestor vs a terran who's behind by like 60 + supply. I am only watching praying that zerg somehow throws the game.

Yeah alright baby is done now :p

Baby's strategy: make a fuckload of tanks and hope sacscri suicides into them (and hope there's no broods)
