Taeja and Taeja will advance. Most interesting games of the night will be Taeja vs Taeja in the winners match. Btw does anyone want to Live Report or will I?
Taeja and Demu would be ideal for me, but I can see any of the 3 Terrans making it out. (Considering how bad I am at predicting, this must mean that Minigun will advance first in his group)

Since I'm watching this, I predict Taeja to advance.

Come oooon TaeJa and DeM. Don't have anything against Mingun but I'd much rather not have another Protoss. Don't get me wrong, I love Brotoss more than most of the next guys combined but at the same time too much is still too much.

I want to post my opinion on this, but I guess it'd start something unpleasant and it's too late for that shit.
1. Where is Terry the Intern? I feel like Day[9] and Terry bits would be gold. 2. I thought FrodaN was casting today. Is he ill or something or just a change?
I am hoping for Demuslim and Taeja! Taeja should be a given as long as he plays even close to his normal level, and Alive can be hit or miss so i can see DeMu taking him out possibly. I dont really know about Minigun, but DeMu has been taking out better Protosses already so Minigun would have to be very surprising today

I dont really enjoy those recaps from previous games.. feels a bit boring.
i see what they try to do with the long interviews. They really try to get some personality out of them. Its not quite working yet.. but i appreciate the effort. I liked Redeye's question for duckdeok: "We dont really know you, who are you?" Unfortunately that kinda got lost in translation but you need more character... otherwise them koreans just seem so exchangeable?
I just had a funny thought that the only words from Day[9]'s question that aLive probably understood were "hellbat" and "Innovation" and he must have felt like he was back in 'Nam.

Exactly. They're trying to make us care about these players and develop that emotional bond. I'm not sure if it is working yet, but I like their efforts!

But he does predict very fast. Almost like a speedy ass ninja.
Haha
As for Shellshock's prediction, I agree. DeMu on LAN is different than DeMu online. This is coming from a huge DeMu fan (he's my number two favorite player behind TaeJa, this group is killing me).

I don't mind them doing it at all, I just think maaaybe they could do it in way that doesn't delay the first game for half an hour? I don't know how though. I mean, winners' and final match interviews only giv eyou two players, and if they do like VOD interviews on YouTube most people wont watch them. Probably.

Agreed, i don't think he'll make it.
But just let me be fanboy, for once TT
I'm pulling for him hard, but I'm just being realistic. The good thing, I think, is that he'll only have to beat him the second time to advance. I don't think the first matters, because the winner will lose to TaeJa and the loser will beat Minigun.

You totally predicted Soulkey to beat Supernova and then first tho. No perfection. Get the engineers on that.
Also I always cheer for Bomber. Though I kinda thought he would win that match.

It's Demuslim, two things are either going to happen here
1. A motorcycle crashes into the studio and lands upon and breaks Ben's arm
2. American swat team comes in and arrests Ben after it his Visa was somehow revoked during his flight and alleged muslim terrorist ties
Demuslim need to stay in the lair, everytime he goes outside he gets hurt

you get to sit on onkels lap for doing so swell
sick city. For the record I would be fine with Demuslim advancing. He's a pretty cool guy and he performed better in the last round than I expected so maybe I just haven't been giving him enough credit.

Perhaps its because of the protoss madness in wcs eu, but im so damn excited to watch some TvT. I just hope we will see some close and intense games and not to many BO wins.

Every time he ends his stream and mentions that he's going to go and get some tanning time I just picture him going upstairs and sitting by a closed window.

Exactly. I think you mean Faroe Islands but I love the image of an ancient Egyptian football team
I'm wondering who it would be on par with in football terms if Demu comes out of this group - a solid win over the likes of Portugal maybe? They tend to screw England up.
People complain about koreans in WCS NA, but honestly, I feel like it's gotten to a balance (few NA players, mind you) where pretty much every group is fun to watch

They would play it with these badass gold chariots, the world would have been changed forever, the most popular sport would be chariot ball!

I think he was nervous. He made a couple of macro mistakes. He got supply blocked in the 50s and was stuck at 121 for over a minute. Then he forgot his armory for a while and didn't start it until 1-1 was already done and aLive's 2-2 was like 1/3 done so he was way behind in upgrades. little things that add up over time. Demuslim was also struggling to keep his minerals under 500 for a long time while aLive was staying in the 50-200 range. Banking gas in marine tank is fine but banking minerals isn't

I wonder if Demu has just become too predictable when it comes to banshee openings - he uses them so, so often. He was behind in so many ways for so long in that game and getting nothing done with his banshee didn't help.

He got caught out on the far side of a choke with his tanks unsieged and tried to run back through while fighting. He lost all his tanks and maybe half his marines.

And also got his mining disrupted with forced lifts and the like.

He was a bit behind, sure, but the critical error was being slightly ahead in tanks but down in marines and then getting caught on move command while unseiged.

Oh yea sorry I thought he meant before that engagement where Demuslim lost all his tanks because I saw him say engagement in his post. Yea that was more or less the nail in the coffin

Maybe. Depends on if he had time to scoot to the NASL studio to pre-record something. I think it's pretty obvious all of the core NASL casters (maybe even Terry? ) are likely to have one.

this would be awesome. something like: "and now we see the crowd looking at the entrance of the church anxiosly. this is it ladies and gentlemen. the moment we all waited for and the question is: will the bride show up or not? kaelaris took a big risk in getting into this position.

What a horrid beatdown that was. I think DeMusliM played pretty poorly, but there's no doubt that aLive genuinely is extremely good - that Gretorp video might have come across as a bit corny, but he is right in that aLive's Season 1 performance was amazing and he's obviously still on form.

Terry works well so far with everyone on the set, whether translating or bantering with casters. I'd say he's doing pretty well on his internship, but we don't yet know the most important thing. The gold standard upon which all interns are judged.
Did he bring Day[9]'s coffee in a timely fashion, and was it brewed and presented to Mr. Plott's exacting specifications?

Probably, but that could be diminished pretty easily if you've ever seen him and Gretorp's parody of Lauren and Frodan's Fierce Fitness segment. (Be warned: Once seen, it can never be unseen.)
I just hope they get rd of this soundguy or they spent some dollars on microphones because the interviews are just horrible because of the sound fuck ups.

Crank is not very good. He is super busy with managing Ax by now.

In a way it's nice that this NASL setup is much more personable with all the interviews, but it makes the broadcast incredibly long-winded. WCS EU seems super-snappy by comparison.
30 minutes from the end of the last series to the beginning of this one. Who wants to watch all that trash? Just show us the games especially when we're only at Ro16.

Maybe. But it's definitely a different direction and one that is ultimately where eSports will have to go. There are only so many giant multinationals that want to sponsor esports, and more regional/local sponsors help keep things working. I live in the US, but LABite is about 2000 miles away and doesn't serve my area in the least - I still got a very nice reply to my email thanking them for taking a chance and giving support to something as crazy as a professional video game league.

He meant because labite means cock in French.
Well, I imagine French cock can be pretty tasty if delivered properly, quickly, and with proper packaging. (Though it might just be labeled as "chicken francaise".)

Exactly. That totally mystified me. It seemed to me that those 4 Marauders attacking the 4th base Nexus that was still building prompted Minigun to push out before his 2-2 is ready, when he should've just canceled the Nexus and engage after his 2-2 is done. Even without storm those upgrades would've made the difference and he would've wiped out Taeja there.

Well the first game didn't start until like 6:35 and then I left after Demuslim vs aLive game 1 and by the time I got back from dinner 40 min later they were just starting TaeJa vs Minigun game 1. I think Demuslim vs aLive was about 15 min long so somewhere upwards of an hour of down time today

Well, they are somewhat handicapped by their original venue catching fire last week (or so) and getting back into full SC2 production mode after languishing in the World of Tanks.
But I think things we can't see are probably pretty awesome. (I wish they had a chance to put some cameras in the player mansion - that could be awesome.)

See above about sudden potential venue issues. And yes, it's live - but I don't know how many people in LA have Tuesday nights off and can brave the traffic.

its actually somehow painfull to watch compared to wcs EU. The Interviews are boring, the casters are not quite into the current meta. The crowd is super small. Even the games are looking quite unspectacular.

Still lacking compared to EU I agree but better than last season.
I really dont understand why go into pheonix instead of Templar. Templar is better in virtually every way. That way makes your colossus way too important.

Yeah, their venue for Ro16 had a fairly major fire from what I can gather and they had to change location to their studio. That's why the fan area is so small and Europeans are having a go at the show thus far saying "WCS EU is better."
Duh it's better, NASL has been doing this for a grand total of two days at a venue that wasn't their first choice.

There you see it mech-fanboys, it will never work!

Although personally I think that's totally wrong. Forgg's opening style into mech still works great and it leads to better hellbat drops as you get Blueflame early.

this analysis just missed one thing: it was a hotkey error as alive pulled back all his troops. unfortunately he also pulled back the one scouting medivac that would have prevented taeja from moving forward.

Demuslim. Always.
Is the problem that it isn't the Lair?
Okay, that was mean.
From what I've noticed... He loves his own setup, his own spot, his own area. And taking him out of his comfort zone means that he'll be nervous and play awfully. His play vs. Alive was dreadful, so many mistakes. Whereas against Crank and HuK last week, he made no mistakes.
Clutch manages to make the black on black background work out somehow - less of the floating head effect Rotterdam had yesterday. I think it's the lighting.

This downtime is just getting beyond ridiculous now, it's 2:35am here. I'm off to bed, hoping to wake up and learn that by some miracle, Demu has advanced to the Ro8 at the expense of aLive - but I fear not.

Sorry to hear that. I think they're moving a bit slowly, but they're also had a myriad of technical issues.

Awful micro by Demuslim. Fuck it. I'm done. I rarely watch SC2 anymore, and I only come by to watch Demu's games. But I am so done with hoping it wont be the same Demu that always falls on his face.

i always enjoy these old threats from the nsfw times of TL. latest goldy was this
Was it just me or did demuslim tried to emulate taeja in the early game, just not as crisp? also: minigun going for the same build all the time?

Although I know when NASL streams from their actual studio, they put out one of the highest quality bitrate streams out there.
It seems more like the PC is not able to keep up with the extreme/ultra settings rather than the bitrate being too low (twitch isn't lagging/stuttering at all now)

I don't think anyone's surprised that Minigun's going Phoenix/Colossus, least of all DeMuslim. It takes a lot of skill to do what everyone expects you to do and still win, give Minigun some credit.

They're in their actual studio.
Are they? I thought they set up in a Redbull hall somewhere. Or is that just the finals?
I didn't think the studios were big enough (or designed) to actually hold an audience.
Redbull for the finals. They're in their studios because there was a fire at the location they were going to use. There's only room for a handful of people, but they're making do.

Well, to be fair, there's only a few American players in it.

Nice Minigun! If he beats Alive I think he needs WAY more respect, Top 8 NA is quite an accomplishment!
This will be an asshole comment but I gotta keep it real: if you feel too nervous to perform against the likes of Minigun, you shouldn't continue as a pro, its just something you need is nerves of steel.
Oz said he finds it hard to lose to terrans these days. aLive beat him at IEM Shanghai 2 weeks ago or whatever. I guess that means aLive is doing fairly well against protoss these days

He did the standard 10 minute medivac TvP timing but you can't drop with phoenix out and you can't push the front with colossus out. The 10 minute timing exists because if toss doesn't go stargate they can't defend completely shut down aggression on their main and natural.
Taeja attacked before 10 minutes, and this is an important distinction to make.

Might also mean that Oz's super-build has a counter, which Alive knows since he trains with him, and because of that he couldn't use it against him at IEM?

also a possibility. teamkills can get pretty weird sometimes and they are probably good friends/training partners since they came from Fnatic together
Is there a Terry fanclub yet? I feel like he needs one.

It does look interesting.
Is it that much more stressful than SC2?
SC2 isn't super well optimized in the first place, which has the unfortunate side effects of limiting the scope of custom games and making it harder for casuals to play team games.

C'mon Minigun. If you fall out, we've only got a Canadian (okay, she's a pretty great North American) and a supplanted Korean. (Polt totally counts. Because Texas.)

It's not smart, but even Korean players are guilty of this. Alicia does this a lot (Skytoss PvZ, fast templar play in PvT gateway expands PvZ and PvT). Marineking used to go CC first without scouting, and Flash also frequently went 14CC back in BW.

I was all for having intl players in WCS Series at first but now, I've come to be completely turned off. At least if regions were restricted, the finals would be an epic foreigner vs. Korea tournament :/

Those games would go just like aLive vs Minigun just went (although some of the better EU foreigners could make it a little interesting)

Hey man, MLG winter was pretty epic. Not because of the foreigners though.

Hmm. You said you were going to go HasuObs. I think you probably went more MC, HasuObs would still be prepping for the final push.
He was waiting on the wall. I just whacked him. I suppose HasuObs would have gotten six hundred fly swatters and then done the shear stress calculations on the arm of the swatter before swinging.

I know. Even innovation fell for it with his 3CC eco opening vZ losing to 3base roach/ling allins again and again. It's just that a lot of these players can be confident in their overall skill. Minigun (should) know that he needs something more than standard play to win. If he knows that taeja is most likely a loss he could try to immo-all in him so his other opponents can't read him like an open book.

His form was pretty much superior to anyone in the group. aLive looked close for a while and then TaeJa just killed him. Minigun was outclasses in TvP in both of his matchups (which is understandable, those two guys are really good)

Ahyep. Taeja looked top tier Code S, and aLive outplayed deMu and MF. I'm always a liquid fan, and Taeja really impressed- wouldn't be surprised to see him win a bo7 against inNovation.

Don't have time now. Going to bed and have two exams in the next two days. Studying pretty much every waking moment when I'm not distracted by TL and I don't want to add to the reasons I should be on here :D
After today Demuslim online: In these games, DeMusliM is 31–14 (69%) in games and 13–5 (72%) in matches. Demuslim offline: In these games, DeMusliM is 8–15 (35%) in games and 3–6 (33%) in matches.
Yeah it's not even one of those things like it is for some players where they are beating lots of foreigners online and then losing to koreans at live events or something. He's struggling against a lot of players he would typically beat when he goes offline.
Just got back from NASL studio, we were chanting pretty loud for the players but you can't really hear it on stream at all. We did a USA chant for minigun but I just watched the vods and you can't hear it.

I think the audience isn't really mic'd - just the casters. They really aren't set up for a live studio audience.

Thats kind of sad. The NA competition is just a joke with so much overhyped and overrated players. I mean its the part of the SC2 world where the most money is thrown in and it looks like that even the SEA pro scene looks stronger right now.

I watched a few vods from today's games and there was some intro's where you can hear us and others where you can't. From where we were sitting it wasn't too far from the actual casters. The players could hear us though, minigun smiled when we chanted for him.

Well, Goswser has outperformed all the Europeans at the last two European lans, so I guess he'd be a candidate alongside Scarlett.

Nothing is wrong with scarlet its more the overall competition on NA. I mean we could cut WCS NA and wouldn´t lose anything besides free money for koreans.
I don´t want to go on the "EG sucks" train too much but as far as i know the NA teams are throwing way more money for mostly horrible results. The most successful or at least cost efficient foreign team is most likely Team Liquid and its debatable that they are even a NA team.

DH Open Valencia: true. ASUS ROG: false, Happy also got to the quarterfinals just like Goswser.

Overhype has been Demuslim's case since his wc3 day. Hes super popular for whatever reason but joining 4K/EG doesnt qualify him as top player at all. I'd be surprised if hes ever to win anything

He is the number 1 streamer right now. It's not that he isn't earning much, but Apollo said it best: At one point you have to decide if you want to be a streamer or be a winner. And there is no point in staying in the US if you choose the latter. Unfortunately, Demuslim has invested too much into staying in the US, so he feels he has to stay.
Did DeMuslim play bad in his series? Seeing him lose 2-0 in a TvP seems to think he did. Losing to aLive is no bad feat but i thought he would of atleast lost 2-1 then had a fight for the 2nd spot >.<

He works pretty damn hard, it seems to be more a mental block. He's not at the level of a top Korean Terran, but he's better than he showed vs Minigun

very harsh... his progress was severely stunted through arm problems initially and now, especially on ladder, we're seeing just how good he can be! he works incredibly hard from what I can tell, he just needs to beat his mental block when it comes to playing live.

Agreed harsh, but thou cant avoid the facts that are.... 1. he has more potential than any other non kr person 2. but just doesnt show it in live events 3. he streams so much i doubt the way he practices.. this points to a ladderhero.. sorry

Yeah, InControl backed up the mental block thing with tournaments on inside the game last night. Maybe I'm just an optimistic fan, but I the Demuslim has the potential if he can just get the monkey off his back. I'm also excited to hear the bit on laddering in KR. That seems like a really good move.
