IM 5-4

I'm not really that confident in that prediction, it could go either way. Both of these teams are so stacked.

At a glance of Startale's lineup you could mistaken it for a lineup of Ultramen ROFL.

As of late, i would think that LG-IM would take it in their current form. Cheering for Startale though!

I have no idea either

But why would ST not send out Life / Curious / AcE / Squirtle but send out Suho / Virus?

I bet this broadcast will have 50-60% less viewers than EG vs Liquid.

Well, they have a shitload of players. Startale and Quantic, together, have over 40 players.

That said, Startale (Life) fighting!

The IPTL might actually be a better team league (for viewers, not prestige) than the GSTL at this point... So many great matchups!

Easier for teams to participate in too, so we get to see teams that could never attend the GSTL play.

IMO Startale has this, they have much more depth to their line up and LG-IM can only really rely on Seed, MC, and Mvp

I really don't get why people say this. I mean, ST and IM do seem to have the best lineups right now, but what puts IM behind? Seed is roughly equivelent to Squirtle, MC is the PvZ of Parting's PvT, and Losira, First, Yongwa, Happy, and Yoda put out a really strong backup.

They have so many players on their team, they could play a high best of series and likely not run out of players. Cheering for Startale to win this!

Cheering for Startale to win this, but looking at IM's last series, I don't think that Startale is the favourite here :/ typical heart over head choice for me.

Edit: Life all-kill incoming :D go beat Mvp, ballerest of all ballers!

Just spread out the broods in an arc around the entire expo. Was actually a big mistake by Seed to recall there, no way out and his army wouldn't be able to beat those 20 broods.

Are you really that dense? He didn't see the Mothership, because Seed flanked with it. He can't realistically keep the army spread the whole time and move it, unless he moves it 1 unit at a time, for 45 minutes. I would like to see Protoss move each stalker 1 at a time to not clump up their units, every time they're moving around the map.

Why don't Z players magic box or something their BLs? I mean, it is an inevitability that vortex will happen at some point. All BLs/Corruptors on 1 hotkey. I am not a fan of a vortex spell but I think those Z players who are not capable of controlling units (again, against the INEVITABILITY) deserve to lose.

ZvP late game right there.

Double speed prism harass requires 20 spines and overseer per every expo... recall abuses immobility of BL infestor, then if all else fails, double vortex.

You just can't play against Toss on even bases with 3/3/3 ups. Gotta hit your timings before that.

Not the whole time. He knew that there was recall so he should have been aware that MS was there.

Geez. T players split their units against banelings, fungals, storms, etc. all the time.

The question is, are you really that dense? The spore and spine crawlers had the Mothership spotted well in time to spread or move even if he wasn't aware of the Mothership. The fact that he was aware of the MS beforehand and still didn't spread makes it even worse.

I suppose you're a Z player. Let me ask you a question: Did you scream to Life "Split! Split! Please split!"

Or do you think he should have gg'ed when MS was built.

How is that unrealistic? People have been moving spread out armies for years. You've got 10 hotkeys to use, he has no production, no mining, all he has to do is control those units. He knows that Yonghwa's army is trapped there for the time being due to the recall. All he has to do is not get everything caught in a fucking vortex.

Geez. T players split their units against banelings, fungals, storms, etc. all the time.


T players don't move around with spread units. They either spread when something's coming, like when banelings are rolling in, or move, stop, then position units in a split formation, if they're expecting to be fungaled, for example. Against Vortex with Zerg units, you can't split they way marines split when banelings start rolling, it's technically impossible, because Vortex is instant and ranged.

With how clumsy and slow the late game Zerg army is, and how it naturally clumps every time you move it, you can't possibly respond to your opponent's army movement, and keep your entire army spread the whole time. The only option is to take position, stop, then spread your units based on where you think the Protoss army and the mothership exactly are. Life had just moved his army, and didn't have time to spread it. He thought it was safe to move, because he thought the Mothership was in the back with the army.

But noooooo even though Squirtle's so good at PvP.... ;__;

I'm still a bit sad about MC losing to Seed in GSL

Seed is definitely damn good though.

Are you really that dense? He didn't see the Mothership, because Seed flanked with it. He can't realistically keep the army spread the whole time and move it, unless he moves it 1 unit at a time, for 45 minutes. I would like to see Protoss move each stalker 1 at a time to not clump up their units, every time they're moving around the map.


Not the whole time. He knew that there was recall so he should have been aware that MS was there.

Geez. T players split their units against banelings, fungals, storms, etc. all the time.


T players don't move around with spread units. They either spread when something's coming, like when banelings are rolling in, or move, stop, then position units in a split formation, if they're expecting to be fungaled, for example. Against Vortex with Zerg units, you can't split they way marines split when banelings start rolling, it's technically impossible, because Vortex is instant and ranged.

With how clumsy and slow the late game Zerg army is, and how it naturally clumps every time you move it, you can't possibly respond to your opponent's army movement, and keep your entire army spread the whole time. The only option is to take position, stop, then spread your units based on where you think the Protoss army and the mothership exactly are. Life had just moved his army, and didn't have time to spread it. He thought it was safe to move, because he thought the Mothership was in the back with the army.

.... oh man.....

The army was TRAPPED! He knew exactly where they would come from because they couldn't go anywhere else. All he had to do was spread and use move + hold position as he watched the enemy forces melt to the BLs. Instead he a-move clumped and got owned by a single vortex.

Are you trolling? Even if you don't see the Mothership, he knew it was at the battle. There's absolutely no reason whatsoever to not have your broodlords and corruptors ALWAYS spread out. What on earth are you talking about. You create a concave with blords around Seed's army and just select everything and a move, they will stay spread enough so that he doesn't lose every single unit to one vortex. That was an absolutely terrible fuck up by Life to lose an unlosable game, and you would have to be extremely "dense" to not see that

Casters forgetting Bomber as ace! Also, I think protoss players are the best bet vs Seed.

Regarding the brood lords, when you know where your opponents army is positioned, it's really, really easy not to get more than 5-6 out of your 20 broods in a vortex. Was just sloppy play from Life.

Not sure but normally these are casted in advance so these aren't live or anything. Although if you mean he was busy preparing for GSL instead, I could totally see that.

You probably don't know how zerg works if you think they can dictate how a game plays on. Our all ins are pretty pathetic when its so easy to scout just by the fact if we are taking gas or not (disregarding early pool builds which are really pathetic against workers.) Its up to MVP to end it.

Oh I think I do know. It's coin flippy, sure, but I'm sure you'd agree that being idra every game isn't exactly going to get you success.

Oh I've seen the game you're talking about, I just kinda assumed that there must be a better map for him to play on than such a zerg favored map. Although I'd definitely like to see some more mass raven play if that's how the game turns out.

edit: With that being said, I'll probably switch over to NASL and come back in half an hour when the ravens come out

Interesting way of saying you have never seen mvp play Metropolis against zerg. Aka Mvp giving Blizzard a reason to not buff the raven :p

Oh I've seen the game you're talking about, I just kinda assumed that there must be a better map for him to play on than such a zerg favored map. Although I'd definitely like to see some more mass raven play if that's how the game turns out.


It's one of the very few map where sky terran is possible. So it's a very good choice if that's what he have in mind.

You probably don't know how zerg works if you think they can dictate how a game plays on. Our all ins are pretty pathetic when its so easy to scout just by the fact if we are taking gas or not (disregarding early pool builds which are really pathetic against workers.) Its up to MVP to end it.

Oh I think I do know. It's coin flippy, sure, but I'm sure you'd agree that being idra every game isn't exactly going to get you success.

So you rather coin flip then play a solid macro game which you have confidence on? Hilarious.

NOT EVERY FRIGGING GAME. Jesus. Just this one game.

Well you need to remember, MVP has wrist problems. Its sort of a dirty tactic, but you can wear him down, he is a monster after all and its wise to wear him down then let him be on a roll.

You wait for tournament to remove the map, because there's actually no way to break terran on this map once he has 2 PF at each road + 15 ravens

Cus it is REALLY hard to get to that point.

MKP vs Suhoshin (right after he holds 6 pool with CC first) was even worse.

Its not difficult actually, its all about proper bulding placements and knowing you don't have to end a game quickly. Too many terrans get hasty with ending a game early instead of being defensive or mess up their building placements. MVP plays terran to near perfection because he knows where to place his buildings and how opponents (especially zergs) will engage.

Blizzard really needs to get rid of the raven and replace it with the science vessel. I think that will make for a much more interesting TvZ and also give sky terran a chance.

Not really. Infestors counter most terran comps. Mvp needed to somehow mix ghosts in that comp to try to get EMP off.

MVP's style can win there, but you really need to secure the islands. Otherwise you have no chance because you're ceding the two middle bases.

I feel MVP didn't get rid of the infestors quick enough though, there were a bunch in his base but he opt to keep his tech hidden instead of killing off the infestors.

Chose to play biotank, standart opening 3 OC. Did an attack who got crushed by a baneling flank.
Go into 5 bases turtle metropolis mode with PF at intersection. Try to go sky terran but lose too many ravens despite surviving the Ultra push.
Transition into BCs but lose everything in his bases to 30 infestors and didn't have any Ravens left

I wonder if Curious is good enough to beat 3 GSL champions in a row. And Jesus IPL, stop spamming ads during games please. It's incredibly annoying to the viewers.

Full credit to Curious for nice map control with mutas.

MVP probably wanted and needed more tanks during the transition but simply had less of an economy than he usually has on this map.

Edit: I actually did not see GG because of the ads, wtf

he'll win anyways but that's because of the huge advantage he gained from MVP being so passive

No, how was he playing bad?


terrible ultralisk/broodlord/infestor control and bad multi-tasking. it's not something that would cause him the game because of MVP's strategy being so bad vs lategame zerg


It's actually really good against lategame zerg, but Mvp didn't execute it properly (didn't go full sky terran transition, but went with a mix of bio / sky, and being too passive).

The problem is that infestors basically counter every unit late-game, the only way he could have won that is if he had brought all his CC's with his army and perhaps if he had a raven or two (but ravens die instantly to fungals, and fungal range is huge).

Nothing to be done.

What did MC do to you? Whoa.

I think he's even worse than Curious. There are plenty of good protoss that I can root for - Squirtle, Seed, Parting, Genius, Creator, etc.

You hate Curious 'cause you think he plays dumb even if his mechanics are good. What do you hate MC for?

I'm highly confused by someone cheering for Squirtle but cheering against MC, 'cause they're basically the same breed of Protoss.

Yeah.. you must have watch the game huh. So no energy infestors in mvp base counters all unit late game? nice zerg flag btw, you probably thought fungals cost 25 energy too huh?

MC / Squirtle are similar
so is Puzzle / Creator
Seed is like in between two styles
then PartinG just does his random stuff

Are you serious? Squrtle and MC, same breed? Squirtle is much more reactive and creative. MC is more of a do or die player.

GGs, on to NASL.

That observing in the end kind of bothered me. We knew that MC's force was walking unopposed through Curious's base, we didn't know about the insane phoenix micro buzzing around those mutas.

Still, a cool match.

Yes, it was 1 phoenix into robo. But considering the phoenix got an overlord kill, forced multiple spores, got full scout, forced overlords back to base. I think it was worth it.

Are you serious? Squrtle and MC, same breed? Squirtle is much more reactive and creative. MC is more of a do or die player.

Like Squirtle 2-base colossus pushing all the way through IPL?

Almost all players are bull-headed with their strategies if they think the strategy has a high chance of success. It's the same for MC and the same for Squirtle. It's just that MC tends to stick to strategies he picks, because he's super-confident in his own control, and it often pays off, which just feeds back into that confidence. If other players cannot adapt to it and defend it even if they know it's coming, then it's their fault, not his. Squirtle plays a very similar "two-base timing" into "macro game" style. It's just that he tends to be much less vicious with it for whatever reason, which I honestly consider a bit of a fault. It doesn't pay to be wishy-washy in SC2. (Which is not to say that he isn't as good as MC. I just think he'd do better with a bit more of MC's killer instinct added on top of his willingness to assess a situation and call off an attack.)

Also, considering MC is pretty much the pioneer of all X-gate timing attacks, I think it's unfair to consider him less creative than Squirtle. :/

(For the record though, I hate watching MC play.)

I'd think that more people were fans of MC than Curious. And some who cheered for Curious might have only done so because he was the underdog and had already taken out 2 GSL champions.

I disagree, I thought it was top notch. He made 1 mistake the whole game but I felt like he outplayed Mvp in almost every way.

On the contrary, every attack Curious tried failed miserably, and his army control was sub-standard at best, he merely held the centre and waited for Mvp to mine out with mules.

Mvp's downfall was trying something crazy and fun to watch, when he played standard (before the sky Terran switch) he was far ahead.

meh don't count to much on those GSL champ tittles. Nestea got 3 and pretty much any one in code S can beat him, same as Jjajky and Polt. BTW Curious isn't the underdog, he might have less results but in a BO 1, no one predict any.

MVP always plays entertaining games. He just doesn't always win, but no-one holds that description anyway =P

However yeah, at a glance you'd think MVP sucked at team leagues.

Im really loving the IPTL and I see it as a premiere league with games just as good as the GSTL. The casters are fantastic and they are even courteous enough to offer free rebroadcasts as well as the stream itself is quite good quality. The only thing I wish for was that the prize pool was a bit bigger. All in all, great production IPTL.
