Thanks Dodgin! I totally forgot to put these 2 on the calendar and was freaking out that it would get overlooked and just submitted them but looks like you already put them up D: Not used to adding everything to the calendar after making the templates T_T

I think Team 8 has a good shot here.
Effort < Jaehoon Skyhigh < BaBy Bbyong > Ryul2 herO[join] > Alone Hydra < Speed SongDuri < Terminator
|
When i wake up i expect a 4-3 for CJ, with herO winning the ace. Don't dissapoint me CJ!

East Gorteau22261 Posts
My FPL needs this series to go to the ace match with herO winning twice =/

I just downloaded the plugin for that Korean Naver site/stream thing. All the instructions were in Korean and I agreed to something with a checkmark at the end of the process. I didn't screw up all my file affinities, did I?
(Yes, I am willing to install suspicious-looking software sight-unseen to avoid the English cast. Anything to not listen to supernovaman.)

Is the first match really playing this much earlier?

Rooting for team8 in every match except against the team I happen to be a fanboy of!
GO TEAM 8! FOR SPONSOR!

4-3 for either team. Too hard to call this one I think. If I had to pick, I would say CJ.
Heart is with team 8 though.

Go EffOrt! I wanna see some ZvP proleague wins under that alien belt!

Why didn't proleague play as early yesterday .
Effort to win!

Because special weekday holidays means they can play the matches in the afternoon rather than the evening. Like last week's matches on Christmas were also early.

Team 8 is still in PL? Then why did they lose Jaedong for sometime? I thought they were looking for a sponsor of something?

CJ 4-1 that would be so great, since effort is in my antiteam. don't ask me why!

Wonder how many of the players are still hungover.

Poor Effort, will he break his losing streak vs Protoss today?

Effort's face when he loses against Protoss is so sad looking.
I kind of hope he loses again just to see it.

I left my desk for 5 minutes and It's over, I figured I was safe because of the map.

I've said before, I think the reason we never see reapers is that all the current ladder and regular tournament maps make them useless....
Blizzard: massively changes the reaper so it will be useful in hots. Kespa: Makes a map that doesn't follow the current standards and instantly we see reapers.
I stand by my idea.
So far I really like seeing some "gimmicky" maps... maybe it's only good in this (PL) format... maybe not.

i agree that it is a good idea to switch up the maps a bit to enforce a different playstyle or adress balance if necessarily. Kespa has long experiences with this in bw as well

I like Arkanoid, I think it makes for interesting games, but I don't think you can have maps like this in individual leagues.

In BW days, much stranger maps have been appeared in individual leagues, messed up a lot players, but they are usually the most memorable ones.

I disagree, if there won't be a better map than Arkanoid in all of 2013, it looks pretty dire. I even like Whirlwind better from this year's maps.

It's a lot easier to tell what the word is with just the consonants than with just the vowels. Actually, ancient written Hebrew & Arabic never included vowels. Makes for interesting reading for historians

There is if you install the plug-in (see OP). But it seems to be incredibly laggy for anyone in NA. Sucks to be stuck to English cast .

Very behind on upgrades too. I think one of the risks Terran players need to take more often against Z is faster infantry upgrades at the expense of early game defense.

lol, all hero had to do was bring 1 probe with his army

Wow didn't think that base trade would work

herO's army was so much better, he just should of kept a probe with his army or something..

why did everyone on team 8 have to change their ID
you guys suck, nothing on the screen or what they say matches their TLPD names ;/
|
holy crap, a good day for the T8 bench! Could EG-TL luck out & take fourth place in round one by default?!? They need a 4-2 or better win by T8, right?

I would have thought that using mutas to snipe the sentries and then using those 100 lings to surround the entire army would have been a safer bet but I guess this works too.

True that - gotta mute the stream.

going for a base trade a 2 min later you realize that you are going to lose in that scenario must hurt

too late to pull out (lol) imo, should've tried to deny all drones escaping and finished off the buildings; might of had a chance there, intense game though.

After herO's loss, CJ's matchscore is 22-22 while EG-TL's is 21-20. A 3-4 loss for CJ would put them at 24-23 which is worse than 21-20 going by straight percentage.
In other words: if CJ wins, they are 4th. If T8 wins, EG-TL is 4th.

Not to mention if I heard right from the last thread there are 2 winner leagues this season which gives Teaja EG-TL an advantage you would think with Teaja.

Could EG-TL luck out & take fourth place in round one by default?!? They need a 4-2 or better win by T8, right? After herO's loss, CJ's matchscore is 22-22 while EG-TL's is 21-20. A 3-4 loss for CJ would put them at 24-23 which is worse than 21-20 going by straight percentage. In other words: if CJ wins, they are 4th. If T8 wins, EG-TL is 4th. what is good about being 4th place for round 1? the format isn't in liquipedia
Nothing, it doesn't matter. The standings only come into play at the end of round 6.
The top 4 teams in the overall rankings including all rounds at the end of round 6 go to the playoffs.
Playoff structure is, 3rd and 4th teams play a bo3 of bo7's against each other, the winner of that plays a bo3 of bo7's against second place, then the winner of that plays a bo1 bo7 at the grand finals against the #1 ranked team.
If you are rank 1 at the end of the season you get a free ticket to the finals, so It's quite important.

How could you mute it.... Some of the stuff they come out with is more entertaining than the matches.

At least SNM can provide something that even Tastosis can't offer.

Remarkably good hold from Hydra considering
But he's probably still dead
damn ~_~
|
hydra's alive for now but he's got no gas banked, Speed's gonnna roll his fourth
|
|
|
This is the second ZvT I've seen Hydra play where he never made an Infestor. Does he know that unit exists?
|
Speed really impressing, him and Baby man, some solid terran play from T8
|

He failed a 2-2 muta ling bane, he had no banked gas, he can't go infestors.

I really need to add Cure (Speed) to my FPL!

ouch. CJ starting out 3-0 and finishing round 1 3-4
|
Team 8 tied for first place last season, they are good.
|
really didn't expect this outcome
|
hydra is so bad in that game lol. Charged right into that sim city with many tanks and depot wall??? Bad decision
|
Speed was sparring partner of JD for so long. Now he is showing good results.
|
Well, congratulations to Team 8! 
|
Woo, T8 finally pulls out the big win necessary to put EG-TL in fourth place!

I will never understand zergs decision making. Why would you attack into a sieged up position with mass banelings?

That looked like an attack that Leenock would have made at the beginning of 2011..."well I made all these Banelings, guess I might as well do something with them".

T8 seems to either be really good or really bad. No middle ground.
|
Did they not notice he cancelled the nexus?
|
Impressive, this means EG TL gets top 4 because of this. Wow.
|
how could you have fallen so far CJ
|
|
T8 was in good mood today, all the guys were really happy with their wins and that's great to see.

Because it was a timing attack meant to kill or at least cripple the terran, hydra over made mutas, had no gas for infestors, and was depending on that attack to work to take a fourth and hive at the same time.

Also it seems like hero[join]'s anathema is base trading.
|
Does anyone has a link to the VOD's? can't find them for some reason and they are not updated in the OP...
|
|
I have membership and they're not viewable yet for me, although there are links for the VODs
|
Any chance we can put the date of the matches into the OP title?
|
Yep I think it takes a while for twitch to process the vods, just check back in half an hour and they will probably be available then.
Edit: now I see the first matches ended like 7 hours ago and are still not up, I think this is way too long and there has to be some sort of processing problem. Anyway the only thing we can do is to wait for them to fix it...
|
You can also just watch them at youtube.com/esportstv, but they are in korean. It's the official proleague youtube channel and games are always uploaded to it nearly instantly. Quality ain't as good as twitch but that's not that big of a deal imo

Well, I went to update the VODs section but they still aren't done processing, weird.
I'll just link to the KR ones I guess.
