Threatening the push from 8:30, Titan finally pushed out at 10 minutes with 4 immortals. Curious was quick to initiate a counter-attack and as Titan was late with a warp-in of sentries, the counter-attack broke through. Meanwhile, Titan was held off in his push towards Curious base. Curious was ahead, but after a regrouping and another push-out from Titan, another counter-attack from Curious is trapped on Titans ramp, and Titan catched a large group of roaches. Titan pushed out again and his push, combined with warp-ins in the main of Curious, did a lot of damage, taking down the Lair. Curious seemed to stabilize, but Titan kept up his harass while taking his third. A big push with Colossi looked to finish the game, but surprise corrupters caught Titan without anti-air and the army of Titan was destroyed between spine-crawlers and infested terrans. Curious continued his turtling and Titan seemed increasingly desperate as he began void-ray production. Curious waited for his 200 supply deathball army and with a final push across the map, took out Titans army.  Curious with a comeback win, 1-1 Your live reports are the best ones, m0ck, thanks!

stephano beats a korean yet again
"he's mediocre"-guys crawl out of their caves like they always do (just take a look at their post history guys )
nothing new here

Hey, just woke up here in Germany ;P
So have there been any fantastic matches so far? Apparently, reading reddit, it seems like at least parts of the production, especially sound, are devastating though? Oh man :/

perfectly balance
lets just forget about everything that happened in the game and not acknowledge that titan spent so much time on 2 base that his main and natural mined out long before curious's, so it was more like 1 base vs 2.

I don't think so. you make money by being skilled at sc2 and winning a lot, so sort of. Not to mention his sample size of games vs Code S players is perhaps the largest among foreigners. The competition of this tournament is pretty mediocre. Iron Squid 2 is the closest foreign tournament to Code S skill wise, if he wins that then the he meets the hype. Lmfao, you can't be serious Why not? There are perhaps 8-10 high-tier players here. Just conveniently forget the fact he's taken down numerous tournaments, placed highly in practically every tournament he's entered as well as beaten many top Korean players. I think he's well and truly already proved his class  Huh? I am not saying that Stephano is not Code S-level or whatever, I am just saying that this tournament has a relatively mediocre player pool.

turnys love top heavy because the only money people talk about, is the money 1st gets.

Which are much, much higher in number and favour for popular players when compared to the nearly zero for Code A/Code B players (tight qualifiers, no invites, no seeds etc.).
Exactly. Stephano pads his record like Floyd Mayweather.

$100k first prize looks way sexier than a flatter payout structure. Though tbh, that's not that bad considering some of the structures we do get nowadays.

... aside from it not being Blizzard that made the stream overlays (that would be the production companies Blizzard is working with), there is the small problem that Blizzard's overlays don't really deal well with multigame series. It's not in the code.
But, in other news, MajOr is putting up a good fight against herO.
Effin' mules. ;D

move up that overlay by 1 cm please!
