No Protoss?? That is good news*. TvZ is by far my favourite matchup.
* Because, they whacked us, Jimmy!
|
I love Starship Troopers, I hope this will become a big tourny! Also love the whole No P thing.
|
Announcing 2 of our 8 players:  HyuN &  Ryung
(just realized the sizing problems upon posting, will fix it soon)
|
Ryung vs HyuN should be pretty sick! Hopefully the other match-ups will be interesting as well. ^^
|
I love quirky tournaments like this :D
|
|
|
Two more player announcements:
qxc & Golden
(Now with proper sizes!)
|
Updated with TLO ! This is not an April Fool's :-)
|
Will watch because SST is my favorite movie
|
How are invitations done?
I wanna see Revival :D

Nice try, this is EXACTLY what someone pulling an April Fool's prank would say! Your shenaniganry will not confuddle me, no sir.

And still protoss will win this.
|
so will the next thing be avp ( alien vs predator) or zvp. jokes aside this is looking sick cant wait and lol at some of these maps.
|
|
|
|
|
TLO? Golden? You sold me.
|
Great, now David Kim will quote the result of this tournament as an example of how balanced SC2 is - look 'Terran' and 'Zerg' still win things! Still, TvZ is the best matchup.
Are any of the subsequent Starship Troopers worth watching - I caught a glimpse of 2 and it looked awfully low budget and badly acted?

The first was pretty great on multiple levels (that is both as an action flick and as satire) but the following two that I've seen were pretty awful indeed.

Since someone bumped the thread, I've Selectively chosen to announce another terran player:
SeleCT

No, they're really truly awful. None of the satirical brilliance of the original and zero production value. They even have green screen of the first movie playing in the background.
TvZ  Easy to watch, hard to play, all match-ups should be this way!
Does anything in the format preclude it descending into mass ZvZ? That would sadly lose my viewership...
|
Really sad to update again that qxc had to drop out, we had to move the tournament 1 hour earlier due to WCS EU Qualifier announcements, and the new time was a tad too early. I will search to find a new Terran replacement ASAP, but if there is anyone who truly thinks they can contend with these fellow troopers, don't be shy to request his spot.
|
wow rifkin confirmed racist
jk :D
but on a more serious note TvZ is the best designed match-up so this should be sick to watch!

Maybe try to get a hold of HeroMarine? He might be back from school at 2 pm .
Or Dayshi, Dayshi is always great to see in tvz.

Heromarine and Dayshi are my fave TvZers to watch! I'd love to see them. Would be cool to see Goody though, his mech stuff is always pretty entertaining :D

How can you have a Starship troopers tournament without JonnyRecco :O
|
Warm-up should be 4v4 Terrans vs Zergs.
|
I have bad news, and I have good news.
Bad News
I reached out to Masa and Neeb and such as the thread has requested, but they were uninterested.
Good News
Axiom's Heart will be our last and final player!
GosuPizza and Rifkin will be working on setting up the brackets early this coming week, and we shall announce them ASAP so you can help us decide who to cast :-)

Somehow, Protoss will find a way.

Small update before getting started today:
Golden had to drop out because he wanted to focus on WCS today, so Bly will replace him
|
Do a War of the Worlds tourny next time! Only Protoss and Terran :D
|
|
|
Bunny 2-0 Hyun, didn't expect that !
|
So TLO is the last Zerg hope.
