If you dont make these LR threads, opterown, who will...
T_T
there's a lot of people who can/will :D shellshock, dodgin, etc are generally pretty reliable! i tend to get them up a full day before for a bit of discussion, but if i can't do it we almost always get an LR up at least few hours before haha
just letting everyone know i can't do LR for groups B/C/D and GSTL on Friday since I'm cramming my paper due on Friday lol, but should be good to go after that.

The free stream isn't bad just some days the bitrate can be horrible.
yeah, lol to be fair i've only bought the last 3 seasons of GSL (survived off the free stream for like, 2 years haha)

I actually bought for this season my first, this time my schedule lets me watch most of the matches live and last season was so damn epic, I just couldn't find any arguments against it any more.
Despite all that talking about SC2's decline I just get more and more pumped every season. Very excited for tomorrow.

I love my life what are your odds on squirtle taking this season? :D last chance! [unless you count blizzcup]
Gah don't remind me! Really, Squirtle's peak was from like January-May of this year and during that time he was undoubtedly the #1 Protoss. I think PvP is his weakest matchup and PvT is his strongest right now. Overall its so hard to say of course, but if Squirtle can get to the RO8 and then avoid both Rain and Creator (this might still be a toss up if its RO8 since Squirtle will have prep time) then I think he can still do it.
Leenock in this first group still really scares me though, PvZ is so yuck right now and Leenock seems to make BL/Infestor scarier than most other players, oh and of course he gets the 10 pool BO win against wonwonwon which I believe Squirtle has the soul to pull off. I think Squirtle has a solid game plan to win lategame but it is still really difficult no matter how you look at it.
Going to be a tough season but I hope Squirtle can do well, both for his sake and so I can be as invested in this season as possible.

finale number one and the last spot wlll be decided by Tajea and Patrting :s

no, january was not the beginning of his peak, squirtle was truly the best toss from march until around august where seed became the best.

The banners look awesome but you get bored seriously fast.
Almost as bad as myself when it comes to work...
By the way, thanks for all those LR-threads, very awesome when sitting in a boring lecture.

No trust me it was. I watched his stream like crazy back in January, still the greatest FPVODs I have seen, dude was just on another level completely. He may not have been Code S at the time but that doesn't mean that he didn't have the skills.

The optertown is back in the live report thread scene hahaha.
I like how they took more than half of the face for that player mash poster. I remember when we had Clidra one of the seasons haha.

Or use the group specific ones, they are better for our purpose I think.
|
Oh...this is already here? There wasn´t mutch downtime between the finals and this...but it should be for IPL5.
Anyway, i hope that Parting can do well, and Teaja or Polt should follow him.
|
wow this banner is sick. I love these GOMTV productions. Great stuff.
Normally busy on Mondays so I'll have to miss these matches 
Head hoping for good matches (so I can visualise the matches in LR), heart hoping for crap matches (so I don't miss anything good ><)
Thinking Polt and Parting really... but Finale looks good and Taeja always dangerous...
|
So two people who I thought would win a GSL this year (parting, taeja) in the same group and only 1 more gsl left for graps.
Hope both advance and are able to show us a great winner vs winner match!
|
Bogus looks a bit like TaeJa in those slice-pictures.
