haha wow Neo Arkanoid in another tournament's map pool? That's sure to make things interesting. RSL is always fun to watch, though, so I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully Leenock will be that last Korean TBA D:
|
I like RSL, hope you guys can keep this tournament up! Wonder who the last Korean invite is though, maybe HyuN or Leenock.
Oz is switched with HyuN!
|
Nice mappool.
RSL is becoming one of the best online leagues.
|
I'd be stoked to see Incontrol just dominate this... but I mean, I can't help but think that's one hell of an uphill battle. Probably the biggest underdog story we've seen in SC2 since Thorzain at TSL3 to be honest.
|
Incontrol eh. I assume this is still WoL?
|
From a spectator pov, I really like the format. So, what is the schedule? When can we expect the games to begin?
|
Arkanoid in the mappool and sorry if this is a bit of a dumb question, but who is pro7ect?
|
Yes! My favourite online league is back (if you don't count IronSquid^^)! Great players, format is great, it doesn't take too much time with only three players per group and produces awesome games, it's fun with the handpicked seeding because you don't get mirrors, etc.
Any chance ToD will be back to cast in English?
Edit: Also, why do you always write the letter o instead of 0? It looks weird.

Maybe Oz or Creator will come back.
|
What? Standard map pool format. That is kinda the shame the alternative map pool format of Season III was something i really liked. It could have done without some of the more ridiculous maps but overall i really enjoyed the way alot of maps were added to the pool and pros were still forced to be able to react to each and every map, rather than just being able to decide constant vetoes.
Still an intresting mappool overall through. Arkanoid is a risky pick.

Yeah exactly my thoughts, Tod's casts are just amazing. All in all an english cast would increase the popularity of this tourney by far
|
Speaking about the mappool - we're trying to balance between pro's and viewer's thoughts. Progamers are not so glad to play on island maps and so on. That's why we're picking maps like Arkanoid and Icarus, which are pretty unstandart in some ways, but also staying with Cloud, Entombed and so on.
|
United States97244 Posts
I think that way of setting up a map pool is good. I've really liked Icarus so far in the GSL. It changes how people play so it's refreshing. Same with Arkanoid when it first started in proleague.
|
Yay so excited, great job you guys are doing.

For quite a while, he's been on RoX.KIS' Junior Squad for some time and has been around GM level for the most part of last year at least I'd say.
His account is RoxkisJaegon, if you know him better under that name, Idk.

You should be familiar with last minute changes! Nothing is certain till it's final.. they might replace him, just to please you! I'm curious to the last korean invites.. I hope we can see bomber back!
|
StarVe, sry, but LZ will not participate again ):
|
Pretty cool lineup so far :-)
Also, what is with writing $9500 as $95oo instead? It really does not look better if that's the idea, or is it common to make the zeros smaller in numbers (and thus you use oh's here) in eastern Europe? It was done in the previous Ritmix threads as well so it's definitely not a mistake.

Get some more good Protoss! MaNa, Naniwa or Socke would be nice. Or good Koreans, Creator, maybe FXOTear, he's awesome.

That's what I'm hoping for, and he could probably use a well-paying tournament to cheer him up after the Code A loss. Competition is strong, still, a good Korean should be able to make the finals, Hyun is dangerous but from the Koreans announced, Ryung and MMA are eminently beatable for a decent Protoss like Tear is.

I like how there's no english stream. Just kidding,cool lineup,cool tournament.

I think just focusing on the koreans in RSL is not enough, MMA for example did´nt win a single game last season and players like Bomber, Losira, Symbol or Creator got eliminated in the group stages/early LB before, pretty much everyone in this tourney is dangerous (Well, Pro7ect, Roll or inControL will probably not knock out Tear, but still) and against for example LucifroN, Titan or Kas, Tear would not be the clear favorite IMHO.

Yeah, but if Oz could win last season, Tear can also do it for sure.
And most of the Bomber/Losira/Creator games you mentioned were played in the first season when they had to play on EU, otherwise I guarantee you White-Ra wouldn't have 2-0ed Losira.
But a bunch of the players are quite dangerous, yeah. That's part of what I like the most about this tournament, it produced some very cool upsets even when they were on a level playing field.
Kas beating PartinG and Symbol, TitaN and Thorzain defeating MKP, fraer beating aLive and Gumiho (and Scarlett), Vortix winning against Leenock and Taeja, it was a lot of fun to watch.

Oh, I didn´t know, that RSL 1 was played on EU, thought it was on NA as well. Ofc. Tear can win it, but it is far away from safe money (Oz had to beat Leenock last season as well). But it will be a fun tourney, I will tune in for sure.

yes! hyun,vortix, and scarlett!

lol, I was only joking about lz..!

Also, monchi was announced already on sc2tv.ru but isn't listed here yet. Finals probably happening around the end of march, still in WoL. And MaNa won't participate, so I'm guessing we'll get a Korean toss.
And the Russian community seems to really be cheering for Pro7ect, apparently he's wildly popular.
|
Heard LiveZerg can't practice/play sc2, nvm gl with the league!
|
This tournament needs more Protoss. Invite the Dragonslayer.
|
Is there any way to join this tournament or is it invite only?
|
All the rsl's have been invite only so far. I expect snute or a korean z for that last Z spot!
|
And the Russian community seems to really be cheering for Pro7ect, apparently he's wildly popular. Yeah, u're definitely right here. He's one of sc2tv casters and also stable GML level terran, so I hope it would be interesting not just to cheer, but to watch his games too.
LiveZerG forfeited his spot due to personal circumstances. The replacement would NOT be a person from CIS because we simply can't find a zerg of such a level in Wings of Liberty, it is somebody from America or Asia, so 11 people from CIS and 13 from the other world in this season.

iNcontroL really? OMG
Pls get a german player i can root for. (Socke, HasuObs, TLO)

I would love an English cast aswell.. Especially because you've got some great players on great maps

aLive and Oz announced!
Goswser replaces LiveZerg who pulled out for personal reasons. I'm fine with that.
One (Swedish) player left to be announced, he will be revealed during the bracket show, whenever that'll be. (Actually it looks like it's today at 9PM Moscow time, so basically in an hour from now? I'm not that good with timezones.)
That'll be broadcast for the Russian community only anyway, so we'll find out when everything is set.
|
Naniwa would be the most likely pick, they still need 1 Protoss and there is already a swedish flag. Could be Sase, Bischu or even Seiplo though.
|
Broadcast will start in 40-50 minutes I think, 21:00 MSK = 18:00 CET is not a strict time, because we're starting right after our another stream. You all guys can watch it, because we will have graphics with all the groups in English, so even if you don't understand russian at all, you will see what the actual brackets are, so welcome to sc2tv.ru
|
I have the feeling it's gonna be vipro..

|
Panishev deals with all non-russian streams so I don't have 100% info about that, but I'm pretty sure that we will have some english cast for Ritmix RSL IV. Don't worry! =)
|
So this is supposed to be streamed right after the Rain vs Flying cast on the same channel?
|
That russian cast is crazy! Is there a synch problem or is he really getting that excited for putting a 13 gate? :D

This is a very "special' caster in russian community. Most of the time he isn't talking about game. Basically, his cast is mix of cultural references, stories from the past, occasional poetry and so on. So the moment you mentioned might be just a random shotout to his cat or something like this). It is quite entertaining. For example he hosted show "Terran Blogs" where he streamed 24/7 all his life. Sadly he isn't good at english.

Ahahah, greetings, casters!
Looks like fraer is in a group with VortiX, and one of the KR terrans from the flags. That's pretty damn hard.

Could also be Kas or Bly. I hope it is not Fraer, he already had such a hard group last time.

I don´t know, what they said on stream, I don´t speak russian. But, yes I think Lowely will probably defeat MMA (defeated Gumiho last time, MMA lost to XLord at HSC) and advance first, so it comes down to iNcontroL vs. MMA. MMA should still win that match though.

tough group for bratok and fraer!
|
|
I love the RSL format. Excited to see it back
|
Poor monchi, by the way, gets both foreigners who might be the strongest in their respective matchups.
And I'm a bit worried for my RoX.KIS Protoss favourites.
|
I really hope it's a worthy swedish protoss or that group will be the easiest by far!

swedish protoss is naniwa i think (may be sase)

I´d say pretty much everything is open with these groups; the only guys, who are relatively safe are Oz, LucifroN and Naniwa. Everyone else is at least in a small danger IMO.

I almost completely agree, although I'd say MMA and Lowely most likely have their spots locked in, too, they just need to figure out who gets first and who gets second. I think iNcontroL has been playing a good bit of HotS lately as far as I know, and he never really was on MMA's level to begin with, Lowely got relatively solid by the end of WoL's lifespan while iNcontroL took the opposite turn.
I can imagine him taking a game or two off them but I can't believe that he'll win a BO5. That'd be more surprising than Catz's performance last time.
And I'd be stunned if monchi managed to beat Kas in his worst matchup against Kas' best.

Thanks everyone for watching (VOD of Bracket Show is here under spoiler) and personal thanks to StarVe for the topic on Reddit =)

I did´nt mention Lowely/MMA, because I am not entirely sure, who of those to is the stronger one and it would only take one upset to knock the weaker one out. And monchi has defeated MVP once and is one of the current world champions, so I can´t really count him out.
|
|
Lowely, MMA and incontrol in 12 hours, can't wait to see who comes out ahead!
|
Incontrol would probably have a much better chance if this was HotS. I haven't seen him play competitively for a while though
|
Awesome! Can't wait for MMA to take this tourny.

Upsets would be fun, so would be MMA dominating.

I'm legitimately curious to see how pro7ect will stack up to bly and naniwa, I forsee his face being caved in but who knows. If pro7ect wins his group does that make him an elephant? :p

I'm really excited to see Pro7ect play SC2
|
pro7ect played many go4sc2s already
|
incontrol vs MMA oh shit i can't miss that.
|
|
|
Doesn't even need broodlords to win.
|
LoWeLy the loose cannon with a decisive 2-0
|
Lol, starport vs bane bust is auto lose. Not enough marines vs the lings once the banes kill the bunkers
|
incontrol bout to get incontrolled =/
|
As soon as I saw the game timer in the old position I closed the stream, oh well :/
|
Game 1: 9pool vs CC first on low ground and MMA died to 3/3 ling infestor in the macro game after that. Game 2: 2-base Ling/baneling all-in vs 2-base tech Game 3: didn't look too closely, longer game with MMA on three base economy denying LoWeLy's fourth and fifth repeatedly, dropping a lot while outmacroing LoWeLy behind it. Game 4: LoWeLy rushes with 8 roaches vs 3CC kills a bunch of SCVs, transitions into infestors after and tries an 11 minute hive and spire on little economy, MMA macros, upgrades, pushes out and later kills. Game 5: absolute slugfest, MMA wins by making less mistakes
|
MMA going full korean with the comeback against the foreigner
|
Didn't think it would go to the ace when I went for dinner after the two first games.

I feel like lowely should change his I.D to yolowely because I will never comprehend him or how he took those two maps watching him now.
|
|
Lowely has these weird low eco attacks coupled with bad harass defense and rushing to higher tech while staying on a low base count, I can't really comprehend it.
MMA still looks like he'll get 3-0ed by the next decent EU Zerg he faces in the bracket.
|
slow banes vs korean terran....
|
let's go for 25 drones ...

Let's just attack into a sieged position with a weaker army.
MMA vs LoWeLy results: + Show Spoiler +Game 1: 9pool vs CC first on low ground and MMA died to 3/3 ling infestor in the macro game after that. Game 2: 2-base Ling/baneling all-in vs 2-base tech Game 3: didn't look too closely, longer game with MMA on three base economy denying LoWeLy's fourth and fifth repeatedly, dropping a lot while outmacroing LoWeLy behind it. Game 4: LoWeLy rushes with 8 roaches vs 3CC kills a bunch of SCVs, transitions into infestors after and tries an 11 minute hive and spire on little economy, MMA macros, upgrades, pushes out and later kills. Game 5: absolute slugfest, MMA wins by making less mistakes

Lowely. Wat r u doing. Lowely. Staph.

A part of me always root for crazy LoWeLy but damn do I wish to see MMA back in shape again.
Anyone else got some heavy lag on Nathanias' stream, or could it just be on my end? (480p)

ah well, looks like MMA gonna take first place in this group. i don't mind that.

I suggest the russian stream,its awesome. I don't understand a word but the production is nice and stream is fluid.
EDIT : IDRA PULLING THE CABLE

hey! this is live! i'm excited!

does the resume from replay exist yet?
|
Poor incontrol, potentially beats MMA, disconnects.
Is that the famous EG internet?

Incontrol defends drop very efficiently only to immediatelly lag out.

Nice, 720p seems to be more stable for me.

Say what you want about incontrol, he played that very well. Sucks for him.
|
EGiNterNetRC has left the game
|
Sad for iNcontroL, Take gave him a >70% chance to take this game.
|
Honestly, I think the game wasn't totally won yet. By units, Incontrol was hugely ahead, but all the stalkers in his main still had a long way to reach MMA's base. Moreover, he didn't have enough resources to warp in a full cycle at MMA's natural. But he definitely had the advantage and the initiative in that game.
|
AIght, lets get back into this Geoff, gogo
|
He defended the drop so efficiently, playing so well against a korean terran. He had his nexus up way earlier without losing probes, he was in such a good position. Poor Geoff.

Well, as the TaKeTV guys said, he had an unscouted pylon, could have at least canceled the expo, the starport was proxied and scouted, so down or out of the question, incontrol was pretty ahead and only lost one stalker during the whole attack.
|
I missed game 1 (game 2). Who won and how?

Feel bad for Geoff, that sucks.

Who won and how? iNcontrol got mad after the disconnect and four-gated (MMA also ebay blocked his natural), even got an unscouted pylon up in MMA's natural next to his expo, but he warped only zealots and waited a bit so MMA finally saw the warped in units, pulled everything into the main, built bunkers and incontrol had no way to break with too many zealots and too few stalkers
|
And the medivac gets away with 7 hp, iNcontroL has really bad luck today.
|
No Leenock or GuMiho? Well, I suppose GuMiho is now FXO's GSL top runner (for the time being), while Leenock can prepare for both IPL 6 and MLG Winter (if he wins either he'll have won the most titles in whichever)
Anyhow, my hopes (some realistic, some not):
+ Show Spoiler +Group A + Show Spoiler + MMA 3-2 LoWeLy MMA 3-1 iNcontroL LoWeLy 3-0 iNcontroL
AcerMMA advances to winners bracket, FXOLoWeLy advances to losers bracket. Group B + Show Spoiler +Oz 3-1 Brat_OK Oz 2-3 Goswser Brat_OK 3-2 Goswser
I think due to map score, Oz advances to winners bracket and Mill.Goswser to losers? If not, tiebreakers: Brat_OK 1-0 Goswser Brat_OK 0-1 Oz Goswser 1-0 Oz
Oz 0-1 Brat_OK Oz 0-1 Goswser Brat_OK 1-0 Goswser

EDIT: Some of group A already happened when I posted it, so I just updated it with those.
|
Win or lose, incontrol is playing very well.
|
now incontrol's play is getting worse. hope he can put up a good fight in game 3.
|
haha, "unleash the unholy dps"
|
Well that was harsh. Poor Geoff.
|
I hope that DC G1 didnt throw his game off. because game three was almost diamond level play no offence. Running up into 3 bunkers? having 4 zealots dancing because he didnt focus target bunker. That pretty much lost him game. But I felt his play after that got better after that failed aggresion, but it wasnt enough.
|
|
Sadly it seems like Geoff is still kind of lost against zerg, doesn't seem to have any clear idea of what to do with the matchup in general.
|
Hoping to see a cannon rush in next game, thats kinda his trademark shit

Nice job commentating - You are improving fast

Don't miss tomorrow's games! Thanks for the games iNcontroL!

iNcontrol, thx for games, hope to see you in the next season :3
Wednesday, 13th, 1600 CET: Oz <Entombed Valley> BratOK Goswser <Cloud Kingdom LE> Oz BratOK <KeSPA Neo Arkanoid> Goswser
|
Sucks to hear about iNcontroL's internet You'll bounce back Geoff!
|
Excited to see Arkanoid outside of Proleague, should be fun.
|
|
I'm feeling slightly optimistic about Bratok's chance to pass the group. Would be cool to see some BB numbers.
Edit: Happy Korean b-day StarVe
..ok maybe not so optimistic anymore :/
|
tarrantius' analysis is pretty cool on the german stream.
|
Repeat of last season's results? BratOK shared the group with Oz there as well and got 3-0ed.
BratOK way better than last season, takes a game off Oz. :D
|
Any English commentary streams today?
|
|
Wait, I got up for 60 seconds; how did game 2 end? Seemed like Oz was turtling with 9 cannons, and Goswser was turtling with 9 spines.
|
What server are the games played on?

Goswser: still steadfastly refusing to play standard. (Although I think he might have been planning on standard play that game before his third got cannoned).
|
Cool map :p But I feel that Oz chose wrong build. On map like this, going greedy play + stargate should completely shut down zerg.

(Terran can just reposition their CC after it completes, of course).
EDIT: yeah, look at where Brat_OK is putting his CC. He wouldn't put it there if he could put it next to the minerals.

Ok that's right. So 4 gate warp prism is not that bad actually. And most likely that's why goswer built roach waren at 5 min.

Yes, the big tumors are there to prevent nexus first (and slow down CC first) compare to hatch first. This is done for balance since no one can put on super early pressure to counter this type of play.

If you watch PL, 4 gate warp prism is VERY popular since I don't think there is a 100% way to scout it since you can hide tech really well and there aren't too many 'safe' OL positions close to the bases.
|
Scouting your opponent's position actually helps when going 11/11.
|
Goswser qualified, thank you Brat_OK !

Yeah I didn't mean for that to be interpreted as he wasn't good. Oz is just a fairly strong PvZ player although we haven't seen a ton of him lately but that's still a pretty big win. I didn't see the games but if Oz is still playing PvZ as high of a level as he was I think this might be a bigger win than Genius or MMA with their current states.

Now we just have to wait for goswser to mine out that base so we can head towards the draw scenario
|
goswser should just bm the shit out of Brat_OK so that he gets angry and a-move into the spores.
|
Reminds me of that ladder game between ThorZaIN and Targa on Cloud Kingdom, except ThorZaIN actually knew how to advance, which would be much easier here for Brat_OK since GosWser doesn't have any Broodlords.
|
ok this getting ridiculous
|
HAHAHA he forgot the Overlords and got a super supply block now. Guess his base reposition didn't worked out LOL. But Bratok doesn't really want to win either. Could have sniped stuff the whole time with Yamatos and could have rebuild in the middle with Mules. Or gather 200 energy on the Orbital and build another Orbital. While keeping the Worker in the Medivac.

Yeah Kaelaris is pretty unlucky sometimes, have to agree there. But those games are not that rare in the EU region.

Pro7ect? HOLY SHIT! I can't wait to see him vs. NaNiwa!
|
|
A tournament with Lucifron and Vortix as player, but they are not in the same group? I call hax! :o P.S.: gogo Slivko!
|
Take used to have so much better music
|
LucifroN vs Slivko 3:0
G1: Lucifron has some nice banshee control G2: Slivko messes up a basic 11/11 defense G3: Lucifron opens 2rax, transitions into mech and then to mass raven. Split map on Entombed Valley. Lucifron banks over 10k minerals and defeats Slivko's broodlord/corruptor/infestor army with his tank/hellion/viking/raven composition.

One of the best things about the RSL is that there's no mirror matchups in the group stages. They have 3 player groups with one of each race.

Roll vs LucifroN 1:1
G1: have you seen the games where two maxed armies meet, T loses 120 supply while P loses 40 ? Well, this was one of them. G2: Roll fails 3g robo immortal all-in. Lucifron holds with two bunkers and two siege tanks kept far away from his wall. Roll tries to catch up by expanding and teching to DTs, but Lucifron attacks with 140 vs 70 supply while taking a 3rd base.
|
didn't expect slivko to go down 3-0 vs lucifron.. so lucifron allready advances!
|
Roll vs LucifroN 1:2
G3: Lucifron responds with a cheese of his own going for 2 proxy rax on cloud kingdom. Roll cannot hold.
|
incredible how much dmg these helions can do! GG!
|
Roll vs LucifroN 1:3
G4: Lucifron opens gas first reactor hellion proxy starport elevator. Roll loses 22+ probes to hellions before 8 minute mark. Lucifron expands and kills him safely with upgraded mmmt a couple minutes later.
I've been watchin Lucifron for some time and it seems that he likes to poke around and test his opponents: can you hold a 11/11? a 1/1/1 ? hellion drop? banshees? In most cases they can't.
And it's quite a lot of fun to watch Lucifron, as he seems to have quite a few builds to go with.
|
Lucifron is insanely agressive and efficient with hellions/banshees, you know it's coming yet it can't be stopped wtf.
|
What was the last map for Roll vs Lucifron and the second for Roll vs slivco? I'm editing the wiki.
|
Roll is such a weird player. Doing a bonky failed cannon rush, a base trade, and getting overwhelmed by a nydus. Can't say im getting good knowledge from Roll through these games

No focusing roaches at all with the immortal...

Personally I'd like to see Pro7ect surprise everyone and go 2-0 out the group.
He is on the Rookie team for RoX.KiS afaik.

Pro7ect obviously has this.

Now I say this as a big Naniwa fan, but like, whenever I watch his stream. He just seems to play illogically vs zerg, he just blindedly masses stalkers vs infestor broodlord and never remakes collosus or techs to mothership. When he inevitably loses he just blames zerg, I dont know man.

That was very one-sided. Nani looked great there.
Hopefully he can pull the match with Bly back.

I really enjoy Pro7ect in BW, fun to see him play SC2 even if he has a ways to go yet

Two possibilities:
One: Nani has regained his confidence and will come back against Bly.
Two: Nani is really bad at PvZ now and will finish getting beat 0-3.

Nice play this time, dealing well with all the weird stuff Bly threw at him. Hopefully we'll get to see two more games

Pro7ect builds no marauders before the 20 minute mark against mass roach into ultralisk. Still wins because roaches can't stop drops from sniping key tech structures.

Panishev is the best + Show Spoiler +Suck it StarVe
I like all of the three players but I hope that Happy will make it through, of course. And HyuN is cooler than TitaN. That's pretty much a fact. HyuN wins his games and it will all come down to a last nailbiting series to decide the second place.
1. HyuN 2. Happy 3. TitaN
Yep
|
Go Go HyuN! Smash this group :D
|
I think HyuN should pass this group easily. He smashed TiTaN in the past, and HyuN has defeated Terrans who are better than Happy constantly. I expect Happy to be second, mainly because I heard TiTaN isn't practicing as much recently.
|
Happy doesn't use twitter :p
|
Haha HyuN pimping himself out xD
|
|
I really hope this map won't be in HotS pool xD. Terran is so helpless on this map. Unless they go for Sky Terran.
|
I think they broke the game

I am not sure about that. I think if it was HoTS, zerg would have a nightmare trying to defend speedvacs jumping between the main and the third dropping hellbats.

Can this replay thing be used with old replays (replays from before the patch)?
If yes, MKP vs Parting showmatch to see if Parting would really win that fateful game!!!

Didn't really matter here since HyuN was in a winning position, but in other circumstances it would have been really weird.

Recovery with countdown. Very snazzy stuff.

Alright, that was the formality series'. Now it starts to get interesting.
Edit: Oh noes, from 2-0 to 2-2
FUCK YEAH HAPPY WOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!
Thanks for the games ^^

I haven't heard mutch from fraer lately, so i guess i won't make it. But it will be a close fight between VortiX and aLive.
Sadly that it isn't in HotS.
|
|
|
Fraer is Ukrainian Okko :>
|
There's an error in the OP, says Happy and Titan advanced from last group not Hyun and Happy
|
Back and forth drop harassement. It's like a competition in who can get the higher worker kill count.
Edit: aLive was the greater terrorist
|
I have not seen this many matches on Arkanoid, but is it common to only take 2 bases? And if yes, why? The third looks relatively easy to defend and relatively hard to pressure.
|
Arkanoid is such a silly map.
|
Classic fraer, nexus first vs 1rax CC, aLive pokes with 7-8 marines, loses every single one, killing only a sentry, the follow-up five gate kills him.
fraer's best map is gone now and he probably hasn't practiced at all on Icarus, we'll see how it goes.
|
Thought aLive would take that game after the start, that fraer got set back too much.
|
This is why I love fraer's play, it's so weird but sometimes awesome. Four gate into blink into DTs and through harassment he picks apart aLive who expanded. Fraer gets in a good position, expands, aLive can't afford a starport and his stimmed army gets weaker and weaker against fraer's blink micro until he finally surrenders.
|
What matchup is alive known to be... good at? Fraer is kind of sick in PvT
|
amazingly well played by fraer
PvT is actually fraers worst match-up iirc.
|
You know you've come too late when you tune in and see 9/123 and 52/88

Sigh, lifting Orbital is apparently overrated.

Woohooo, fraer! Such a beast, most likely making it out of the hardest RSL group once again! Then again, aLive really didn't look good enough to warrant that label quite yet.
I'm just happy we got to see fraer winning four games in a BO5, haha.
Btw, this was the most likely result according to aligulac.

Not to mention he went 2 hatch before pool... while terran/protoss have to actually kill that tumor. He had 3 bases up, finished, before alive even landed his natural.
I just say drop that double hatch, and just roach queen nydus that map to death. Why try to macro that map.

if Vortix wins this Fraer only needs to win one game vs him later.

So I could be wrong, but with the current standing Fraer is already through, right? If Vortix wins aLive is out, if aLive wins, he is at -1, which is the worst Fraer could get as well (If he loses 3-0 to Vortix) and then Fraer would win the H2H-tie.

Wait, what? Why? He just invested 3 hours into this, seems odd that he drops one game before the end, which decreases his chance to advance to 0.
Edit: Nvm.

Really underwhelming by aLive.

SCV Marauder hellion all-in is crushed by VortiX's 1/1 two-base roach force. aLive knocked out of the tournament without a match win.

Fraer's chances are dwindling, a roach rush takes advantage of greedy play on his part, probes are not good enough at fighting roaches.

If he pulls this one back, I'll be amazed.

Well, he didn't pull it back.
Failed cannon rush got fraer way behind, VortiX's ends it with a roach/hydra drop fraer has no way of dealing with.

Super excited to cast today's matches Scarlett and Kas are very fun players to watch!

I predict Scarlett to take it with the home field advantage and Kas to grab the second spot. Monchi can be rather scary though if he's in the mood. I wasn't feeling all that confident on the matter so I turned to aligulac for comfort.

If Scarlett beats Monchi, then she and Kas are both guaranteed to advance. Only way Kas doesn't advance now is if Scarlett loses to Monchi and beats Kas.

Shame monchi didn't bring along the warp prism to micro the immortals and other units, could have killed so much more there.

monchi vs Scarlett 2-2, monchi defeats the infestor broodlord deathball by constantly trading units, not allowing the BL count to get too high.
Some weird fights on both sides though, they both have looked way better at some points in 2012, you really notice that this tournament is one of the first ones in 2013.

Most terribad series of the year so far? I am a big fan of Scarlett, but that was fucking hideous.

If anything, Nerchio pioneered the roach style.

Honestly? I feel like infestor brood lord isn't really that strong anymore post infestor nerfs. Stalkers were always able to trade with brood lords on an equal supply basis if there isn't strong support. Infestors don't murder stalkers anymore.
You'll notice that Monchi was down a base, and sacced an army into a spine crawler wall repeatedly, and the supplies stayed fairly even. Then he landed a vortex on like...four brood lords and steamrolled.
Granted, he didn't have an observer with his army; Scarlett should have just burrowed an infestor to NP the mothership.

Ok my fuming anger has now been moderately mollified. That game wasn't bad, I like watching mech vs zerg for some reason.

Obviously the nerfs made it less effective, but monchi also constantly traded units and kept the infestor/broodlord count and the spine count quite low, he didn't allow her to max out on 30 infestors and 12 broodlords with spines everywhere, he attacked over and over again and built up his tech behind it while forcing her to still build roaches and lings with weak upgrades together with the power units in order to survive, so the "deathball" couldn't reach full strength..
And Protoss is almost always down a base vs Zerg in macro games.

Nice, very solid by Kas, held the muta/bane timing and macro'd to the win from there, looking good! Two more wins are possible, gogo Empire Terrans!
|
Second game, not so much great success in holding that attack.
|
WTF KAS! WTF! Drop makes no sense at all and then he doesn't run away when the fungal wears off.
|
The observing on Takes stream is not that great atm, Scarletts natu is blinking for 15-20 secs on the minimap, nothing happens.

Scarlett's creep spread is so sick, even when she loses.

A lot of mistakes by Kas, but he still wins. If he wins the next map, I predicted all of the games correctly down to the map score.
Unfortunately, they're playing THE Zerg map out there.

I don´t think so, AFAIK both guys, who are casting atm. are normally working on the produktion. Tarra is playing EPS and I have no idea, where Take himself is, I just came home half an hour ago.

Huh, Scarlett plays like a Kespa zerg now. She used to be much more turtle and macro every game.

So two out of three Empire terrans made it through the group stage. It's ok. The competition is very hard in this tournament.

Also: last time Scarlett was on a stream she was playing WoL.
Dunno, Scarlett's reason for practicing WoL are IPL6 and RSL. Scarlett's reason for practicing HotS is GSTL, but she's on a team of seven and not the only zerg at a time when zerg is considered the weakest race in HotS. Her team might not be leaning on her that much.

Regret to announce, that Nerchio refuses to participate his group. He agreed for today almost a week ago, but yesterday in the evening he decided to recall the situation happened in the second season, when he also refused to participate in playoffs 1 day before it, while schedule was made week earlier and was no chance to shift these games. That time we had to punish him deprivation prize, $25o. We've forgiven him and invited this season again, but all we've got is this revenge worthy professional progamer.
We hope Acer's management will announce what sanctions will be taken against him.

who will replace him? or Siw and Ryung will just play 1 bo5?
|
crying bm child Nerchio in action...
so, only 1 game today?

Will you find a replacement for him in time? It is still 2 hours away and at this time a lot of european players should be online.

Great defense by Siw, not looking bad for him now.

Siw is one of the most bad mannered players in the scene, but he isn't a bad player.
Looking pretty close so far, maybe he can go far today.

No. If he would be a zerg or terran of the exact same skill level, Ryung would have probably destroyed him. However, as a protoss you have a realistic chance against Ryung, even when he is the better player.

Just want to thank Nathanias for his super good casting on the english Ritmix RSL stream - I really hope to see him cast in more tournaments!
Keep it up!
|
Officially: Ryung is first, SortOf is second, Siw if third. Ryung has +2 set difference, Siw and SortOf both have -1, but SortOf won match against Siw, that's why he is third. We're not counting winrate in % or something like that in RSL. Just matches -> set difference -> head-to-head.
|
Really sad that Siw got knocked out just by a slither ah well.
|
Gets invited to a tournament less than 24 hours before his games are on. Advances to playoffs.
It was a good day for SortOf.

He's lucky that Bly isn't particularly good at TvZ either so he still might have a chance, but any other Zerg would probably have stomped MMA into the ground. Bly still might, you never know with him.
|
I wonder how much MMA and Bly practice together. Teamkills always create interesting mindgames if the teammates are particularly close. Then again, while MMA is technically on Acer, he's probably more a part of Axiom then Acer to be honest.
Bly shouldn't be easy, but he's definitely a workable opponent for MMA. Gogo!

Winner's Bracket MMA 3-2 Bly LucifroN 3-2 Oz Ryung 1-3 HyuN VortiX 3-1 Scarlett
Loser's Bracket Fraer 3-2 SortOf NaNiwa 1-3 LoWeLy sLivko 1-3 Kas Happy 3-2 Goswser
Personal predictions. All the matches look great, and have the potential to be super entertaining. Hoping HyuN can win this whole thing, which is possible in his current state unless he get's ZvZ'd out by VortiX or SortOf.

Plz, upload the replays soon.

LOL-wely. This guy's playstyle is just so weird, and to be honest, I have no idea how he managed to beat Naniwa that game, given how late his 3rd was and how he had no roaches to tank damage during the engagements.
Still, I'd love to see him upset Naniwa.

Lowely could have easily gotten more bases already, no?

Lowely needs to expand more.
|
Lowely is such a weird player...
|
He just went full foreigner. Facepalm, facepalm and facepalm.

Why did he run all these zerglings in and past all the colossi? Easily lost 30 supply before the actual fight...
And then the fight went just about the worst way it could have gone for him.

Terrible series, considering how much Naniwa seemed to have played WoL over HotS, I'm a bit shocked how shaky he looked, too. His PvZ has always been his achilles heel but in this state I think IPL wouldn't have gone very well for him if it had happened.
|
One thing that always makes me wonder...considering how much Lowely likes banelings in ZvP, why the hell does he not get speed?
|
I'm guessing that the natural geyser on this map version isn't a rich geyser? Or both players don't realize it?
|
Beautiful game by Kas there.
Edit: Alas, another dead LR thread :\
|
Well... I thought it was all about loosing all his lings to MMT and ending up at 80 vs 120 supply. Kas had more then enough to put the pressure back on Slivko.

After watching HotS for most of the time, seeing this many Infestors as a viable ZvT composition looks strange.
|
Build more starports, Kas!
|
God I love watching Kas when he plays well.
|
Kas is playing so beautifully right now. Reminds me of MMA
|
Kas is playing this out so well, using many drops to occupy the slow, immobile BL/Infestor army while building up a Skyterran army to counter sLivko's army.
|
Kas is being sloppy right now with his macro and micro. Losing that much Skyterran is unforgiving.
|
Oh god, sLivko right back in it.
sLivko got a sick deathball going and Kas doesn't have much to deal with it, he really needs a lot more gas and high tech units.
|
13 vikings, 23 marines and 3 tanks in production at the same time
|
Kas's infrastructure will eventually overwhelm sLivko, but man, this was a sloppy game.
|
Jesus, first time I've seen Terran matching viking production with corrupter production (13 each).
|
Bravo Kas, bravo. He did have 1 bad engagement, but by then his lead was already unbreakable. His harass that game was brilliant.
|
Fuck yeah, finally, Kas.
He abused sLivko's greatest weakness (multitasking) really well, it was pretty damn effective for the 25 minutes or so but he made some questionable decisions in the later stages.
|
Tricky expansion there by Kas.
|
first medivacs out when first broodlords are out. :D
This is so inefficient.
|
Kas overextended that army, and his tech is lagging.
|
Kas will be fine if his production line stays safe. Money is certainly not a problem. :D
|
Oh jeez, that went horribly for Kas.
|
camping starports, Kas is dead
|
for fuck sake get some more production going kas.
|
Will aligulac predict every single match down to the map score? I sure hope so, come on Kas, make it 3-2!
|
Come on Kas, 1 more! The Terran race needs you!
|
Well shit. Make stuff to make stuff, man. :/
|
Typical WoL TvZ
|
From what I've seen, Kas lost that game because he had some pretty inefficient attacks and teched too slowly. His 3/3 finished by 27 minutes, and he clumped his Skyterran rather than concaving or spreading well.

Fuck fuck fuck sLivko overcommitting though?
|
Why the fuck would you NOT lift the CC
|
Kas letting his natural CC die was sloppy. He could have lifted it and saved it.
|
GTFO there with the drop, mutas incoming
Oh god Kas, whyyyy. Really could have won the series easily if he didn't make so many avoidable mistakes.
God damn it. T_T
|
Well won Slivko. That being said, the games that Kas won were absolutely beautiful though. :\
|
the last 2 series gave me cancer. I need to shower now
|
It is the flavor of the game... you scout a zerg all-in, set up defenses and still, you may take way too much damage to recover. Not lifting the CC was sloppy but most of the damage was already done. Meh.
HotS is coming
|
What a sad ending. I really thought that he was going to close the series in the fourth game.
Well done by Slivko and thanks for the games.

Thanks again to all the people involved in RSL, it's such a cool and fun league, even if the players advancing are not always the ones I want to advance (RIP Kas T_T).
GO FRAER
Go PMD and JMD. Thank you for watching. The only person who we make it for is you! Not you namely, StarVe, sry (: But everyone who watches!

Ritmix surely delivers. Keep up the good work, and good pick at the Casters (Englisch and German at least, cant judge the other languages :D) Really looking forward to the Lucifron match. He is such a great player

Haha, Oz so heavily disfavoured?
His PvT is still decent, I`d say its pretty much 50/50, plus hes the title defender
PS I do know this rank is heavily influenced by activeness

The OP says Hyun and Titan advanced from Group F, but I assume it's actually Hyun and Happy?

Fraer vs SortOf, match 1 of playoffs day 2.
|
Solid opener by fraer. He's quite the aggressor.
|
Before today, out of the 74 maps the losers picked, only TWO were Arkanoid, by Goswser and Alive. By now you'd think people would start choosing it simply because nobody even expects their opponent to pick it.

Just caught up on VoDs and let me just exclaim a quiet "Fuck Yeah!".
Everyone who I wanted to advance did so, and in very convincing fashion at that, gotta love fraer's aggressive play and LucifroN's versatility. VortiX beating Scarlett in a ZvZ on the NA server is no small feat either, I'm quite impressed with all of them.

I made a summary of HyuN vs Ryung. It's pretty good.
+ Show Spoiler +g1 on GSL Icarus: Ryung held against 2 base roach nydus and countered with a deadly MMM push. g2 on Whirlwind: exp first for both. Roach/ling/bling bust at 12m gives HyuN a 60 supply lead which evens up after the second wave. Stuff dies left and right but Ryung had the upper hand from that point. g3 on KeSPA Neo Planet S: I had dinner. It was delicious. g4 ??? g5 on KeSPA Neo Arkanoid: I don't care because I suck and no one wants to know either way :emo: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2013_Ritmix_Russian_StarCraft_II_League_Season_4

Sunday, 10th, 1345 CET: Bly <Cloud Kingdom> Fraer LoWeLy <KeSPA Neo Planet S> Oz Winners match <Whirlwind>
|
I'm so hoping for fraer vs Oz, that could be a really great PvP series.
And it would be fun if we somehow had TvT, ZvZ, PvP and ZvZ in the next round.
|
Oh nice fraer always has some special Gateway openings versus Zerg. Let's see how that fares against Bly though, who also has some wonky strats, though I guess mainly just mass Muta ^_^

So this will switch to HOTS mid way?

fwiw I don't think switching to HotS now would be a good idea. Some players kept practicing WoL because of that tourney, and weren't as good in HotS as they could be because of it (Lucifron or Vortix come to mind)
Switching now seems unfair to these.

Lowely crawling up to get himself a top 6 placing. Getting 2nd in his group, 3-2 against Naniwa, 3-2 against Oz, and 3-2 against Bly, he's really been consistently cutting it close. Congrats to him

YAY, that's basically it, only Zergs left to slay.

It's been far too long since I've seen Lucifron not get manhandled in a TvT, so happy. Now let's translate this into HotS pls.

Didn't expect to see two clean sweeps today. Or hoped not, rather. Will we ever see the return of MMA? :/

What's up in this tournament now? Some more updates in the OP would be cool, Scarlett vs Goswser isn't even on there for instance, and I didn't even see it advertised by you. Also please post links to VODs after game results in the future? It's a bit of a chore to track them down across all the possible streams, and it sucks having results spoiled sometimes.
Props otherwise for another great tournament <3

Cool. That info would be pretty useful in the OP though, I had no idea about the English youtube channel. And it'd take all of 30 seconds to post a direct link to a match VOD after it has been uploaded.

WoL whaaat. Sorry if it's been asked and answered, but is it casted from replays from before HotS was released? Or are they just going back to WoL for this?

While I do wish RSL found a way to transition into HotS, it would be unfair to the eliminated players missing out on the opportunity to play on HotS as well. Appreciate the integrity and consistency of RSL to finish with WoL.

Grand Final of the last major Wings of Liberty tournament. Sunday, 31st, 1700 CET: LucifroN vs HyuN
|
United States97244 Posts
I have to think HyuN is pretty heavily favored here considering the winners bracket finals. Good luck Lucifron
|
Please note that the grandfinal stars with 1-0 for HyuN (winners bracket advantage), so LucifroN needs to win 4 games, while HyuN needs to win 3.
Attention! Actually, seems like we didn't consider that Europe is moving to summer time. Finals will begin at 24:00 KST = 19:00 in Moscow (both koreans and russians don't switch time), which means it will start at 17:00 CEST, not 16:00 like it is shown in the right bar. Sorry for that mistake, we will try to fix it everywhere in the morning.

It indeed was a WoL tournament. I hope you are not going to bitch about a tournament being played in WoL which you didn't even watched..
A few surprises here and there (I expected ryung, kas, fraer and oz a little higher in the brackets) but we got a well deserved champ in hyun. Gratz and ggs!
