Also, I'll play T against you in the first match. ^^ So you'll probably get to play against a Diamond Z in the losers match  Edit: This trash talking is tricky, my gf is upset with me because I wrote that... | ||

____________________________________ Name (TL username) DarkLordOlli Nationality and age (if you want to leave blank, that's grand) I'm from Vienna, Austria and I'm 19 years of age What do you think of your group? My PvT and PvZ have been strong recently and I like that there's no protoss in my group. It's not that my PvP is bad or anything, I have a 60% winrate in the matchup, I just don't like the occasional randomness. As long as I don't get nervous, play terribly or lag out I think it's definitely doable! Is there anybody you particularly want to play if you advance? I'm not sure, there's a lot of strong players in EU as opposed to NA. I think playing Wintex would be both fun and very easy since he just told me the only build he's currently doing. Perhaps if I met Undead1993 we could put together a cool PvP series. What do you feel of the current state of your race, and opponents races? I feel like protoss is in a good state of balance at the moment. That being said it's still a very build order dependent race and there's always the possibility of a build being countered well. I think that's when protoss is really fragile. And I'm definitely someone who tries a lot of different stuff spontaneously which does backfire at times. So I think the ball's in their courts to try and deal with what I'm going to throw at them! | ||

Name (TL username) Teoita Nationality and age Italian (duh), 24 What do you think of your group? Erm fuck me if i know, i dont really know anyone's skill level in EU. Im glad dwf isnt playing though, he's gosu as fuck and im like 1-21 against him (and in that one game he forgot stim). I haven't practiced seriously in a while so i'm pretty rusty, but practicing and preparing for the tournament will be really fun so i'm looking forward to it! Is there anybody you particularly want to play if you advance? None in particular from EU, but i really want to advance to the global finals to play the other guys from TL strat like Yoshi, sc2john (maybe his chinese cooking has gotten better!), jer and monk. I especially want to play monk because i loved our matches one year ago while we wrote that fucking pvz bible, and im sure he's bitter for all the soultrains he's lost to  What do you feel of the current state of your race, and opponents races? I fucking love how bullshit protoss is. Not overpowered, but bullshit. We can do the most ridicolous builds...i mean, kal just beat soulkey in proleague, how glorious is that. I feel like toss is in a good spot for sure (shit we are even winning tournaments!), i just wish pvz wasnt as dumb with hardcounters, mutas, swarm hosts and how fucking hard scouting z in the mid and lategame is. Then again, Saint Immortal is always with me so... | ||

Hi there, To increase the hype around LRSL and make it a more enjoyable experience for those participating, we are asking those participating to write a paragraph about their opponent and group. It should mostly contain your thoughts about your opponent, their race as well as thoughts about your group and who you would say is the weakest. Trash talking is highly recommended! There is no need for a large paragraph, just keeping it short to 5 lines or so is fine. If you have any questions, feel free to ask Thanks, Bigfan Well, first I'm happy to be in a group with monk, because I think he is a total tool. First, he puts Innovation above Soulkey in the TL Power Rank, despite the fact Soulkey had just beaten Innovation in the GSL Finals. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=415936 Then, he puts Innovation above Maru in the TL Power Rank, despite the fact Maru 4-0ed him in the OSL Semifinals (and Maru would go on to beat Rain in the finals). http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=424523 Finally, he puts down this reasoning for why Innovation was ranked above Soulkey: "Think of it this way: you have to bet your life on either Soulkey or Innovation in a bo1 against an arbitrary player. Who would you choose?" Which asks us to predict who would win and use that define who deserves #1. But then in his "important criteria" he lists this: The PR is a rating based on previous results, not a scouting report on who will do well in the future. Screw him and his man crush on Innovation that shows ridiculous bias. He is disrespectful to the achievements of Maru and Soulkey, so I look forward to avenging them, throwing down a manner Nexus, and dancing my units. gl hf monk. | ||

Name (TL username) Luolis Nationality and age Finnish, 16 What do you think of your group? Theres one terran and 2 zergs. My first oppo is scr who ive never heard of before so prolly ez 2-0 . Then im prolly vs DJHelium who is swedish terran so ill play 200% to kill him. from finland with love. Sabre is some Trackmania player, zerg so i do special tactics and win.Is there anybody you particularly want to play if you advance? I want to play TheBloodyDwarf, because i want to see who is the better crazy finn in these forums. Pyloss would also be nice because ive won him on ladder before <3 What do you feel of the current state of your race, and opponents races? Well, i think terran is such a weak race its a wonder that i even play it. Zerg is a bit stronger than terran because of mutas and Protoss.. Well we all know what idiocy Protoss is  Luolistrain for the win 2014. | ||

Original Message From DarkLordOlli: Oh I also retired a high masters terran two days ago. He joined my clan, I got him to play a few practice games with me, the others spectated. I beat him 2-0 with standard single forge templar (I love you for that btw) and then second game he ebay blocked me but I went proxy oracle into immortal bust. He was so mad that he decided to quit sc2 and left the clan again. PROTOSS | ||

Jer99 Nationality and age Canadian, 21 What do you think of your group? I have a Zerg in my group so I am happy. I haven't seen any of them play so I have no idea of their caliber of skill, but since the America vs Canada showmatch went heavily in favor of canada I think it'll be pretty easy. Is there anybody you particularly want to play if you advance? I'd like to avoid monk, sc2john and yoshi along with any protoss, maybe i'd like to play against FT.aCt)Sony i hear he is pretty good maybe the best in NA LRSL What do you feel of the current state of your race, and opponents races? Terran right now is not bad, TvZ I think is very stable, TvP could use some tweaking to allow terran some more harass early game and maybe make t3 units (bcs, thor etc) more viable. Reduce their production time perhaps or something BCs feel like shit against zerg and protoss. As for my opponents I feel very confident vs Z and T and I've got a few tricks against P so it shouldn't be an issue. | ||

Die4Ever Nationality and age American, 26 What do you think of your group? Umm who am I up against? Lol, these guys are all newbs. Unfortunately I don't have any time to practice, since I'm working on the WCS Predictor, http://4ever.tv and a new game/app thing for Android (follow me @Die4EverDM please), but I'll win anyways. I don't need to be in tip top 50 apm condition to beat them. Did I mention my twitter is @Die4EverDM? Follow me for updates on all the things. And don't forget to check out http://sc2.4ever.tv for the WCS Predictor. Is there anybody you particularly want to play if you advance? Hmm no actually. What do you feel of the current state of your race, and opponents races? PROTOSS!!!!!! | ||

Just so you know, Luolis, I vouched for you, and when I'm eliminated early, you need to keep the Finno-Ugric flag flying high. | ||
