Huh just saw that Select is retiring from SC2, I wonder if he will play the season out. Especially as he's currently in first place.

Holy shit I just thought about that too. It really does suck that he retired. But I hope the best for him. He was doing so well in NASL too.

I go to get a drink, come back, and there's a middle aged woman in the middle of the room talking about catering. NASL really knows how to cram their sponsors into the show.

Rotti: The 8 marines were already up the ramp in the natural with only 1 queen opposing. Ret's lings were in the middle of the map. Any new lings would be too late. (down 30 to 22 supply before he cleans up the marines, no speed, no banes)

Scientology hunts down and kills Rotti.

Yep, Bitter kills esports.

man even in g1 masa looked better than hasu. hasu is expanding too safe though, thats why...and masa pulls way ahead due to pure mechanical macro skill...and borderline underproducing from starport.

Strong play by MaSa, game one was a bit of a throw-away, but MaSa knows how to play TvP well. His style reminds me of Polt's, very Bio-centric style which also uses early Hellion pressure to punish greedy Protosses.

Plus Flash tonight! (The last 4 Up & Down spots should go to Terran and Protoss as well.. GOM should add some Kespa zergs. No good foreigner seeds for the last two spots)

Don't get me wrong, this is pretty exciting at this point. But if this was what every game started to look like, that'd get old real fast. It's still rare enough to not be awful yet.
