![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/BsI8GwY.png) Hi Everyone, I'm pleased to announce the First of (I hope) many show matches I am going to be putting on! The $200 prize pool is coming out of my own pocket, there is no sponsor. Look below for how you can help make more events like this possible! Friday, May 23 6:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00)![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/2ZqrQXY.png)  Snute vs HappyBoth of these two players are big names within WCS EU Premier. Snute has had some brilliant results over the years, recently he took the top spot in the TaKeTV Ultra invitational and SeatStory Cup over HyuN. In WCS 2014, Snute is currently 14th with 1100 WCS points making him the highest ranking foreigner at this time! Happy has had some incredible results too, last month coming second in the Copenhagen Games Spring 2014! Over in WCS 2014, Happy is sitting in 38th spot with 500 points! WHAT THE STATS SAY?!+ Show Spoiler +![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/pok9gw9.png) The main English stream will be
 Madals - with PengWin co-casting Other Languages:  Millenium - Cast by YoGo VODS: VODS are now live! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYLL3KthuCsMVtj1E-1zHnISSe7w_fdoK![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/SA86zmT.png) There is $200 on the line. Winner gets $150, loser $50.The prize money is coming out of my own pocket, there isn't a sponsor or anything! So.... ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/I0zqF5k.png) There are 3 ways you can contribute that will not only help me cover the cost of this show match, but also allow me to put on more events in the future. Ideally, I want this to be the first of many show matches - but obviously I cannot keep throwing $200 at players without at least covering the cost! If this event goes well, I will be doing events like this on at least a monthly basis! So how can you help and contribute?- Subscribe to my twitch channel. It is $5/month but means I have some consistent money to put on this sort of event / show match. More subs = more content.
- Consider donating! Not as fantastic as subs, as it isn't monthly and therefore I cannot plan around it but still is hugely helpful. You can donate any amount you want here: Click here to donate via Pay Pal
- Turn off Adblock when watching streams you enjoy. This one is simple, it is free and gives the broadcaster a SMALL amount of revenue per ad.

Thanks for putting this on, Madals!
|
Great. There can never be too many show matches. Not sure how I feel about picking Happy for the first match though since he's been complaining about connection issues for over a month now, hopefully everything will go smooth.
|
That's awesome ! Thanks a lot Madals for doing that  this kind of content is really interesting and relaxing to watch imo.
Hope you'll find some kind of sponsors so you can keep doing this,
ps: love your casting 
|
Massive respect to you for putting this on Madals, I hope it's well-received and a success.
I can't seen anything other than a Snute win to be frank.

Isn't snute going to wreck this guy?

If Snute plays from Take's apartment, he'll win easily.
If not, I expect this to be pretty close actually. Happy's TvZ is quite good as well.

Haha, that comment made my day!
I think Snute is going to win tbh. Dude's a machine nowadays!

Thanks a lot man!
Really hope i can tune in to this.

Happy to see some Snute games but.. this seems more like a donation to Snute? I HOPE SO! :O Although I do also hope that Happy can bring it!
|
|
|
wow madals, you're really paying 200 out of your own pocket :O! that's great, hope it will even out
also good games will be played!
|
really looking forward to this!

If you take a look at the stats, their record between eachother is fairly close!
Also, yes, the $200 is indeed coming out of my own money. My hope is that this will go well, show it could be sustainable and therefore be able to put more on!

Date has now been comfied for Friday, May 23 6:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00)
|
This is gonna be friggin' awesome. And even better, starts an hour after I finish work, so I'll be home in time to watch.
|
Best non-korean (though you could argue for VortiX's case) against the best non-korean terran. Should be a good match.
|
Snute's been on a tear. Go wreck!
|
This should be good, think Snute will take it though.
|
Thank you so much Madals! This will be awesome!
|
|
|
Definitely going to check this out!
|
Oh damn, Pengwin is co-casting now? I was already excited, but now I think I'm having heart problems.
|
3 hours to go, any last min predictions?
|
Stream is now live, ready for a 20:00 CEST start!

Snute about to make his drinking money for the weekend.

Those lowered supply depots. It's one of those messup moments that make you really feel bad for a player. Like when a Zerg detonate the banelings early or when a Protoss tries to cannon rush and forgot to build a forge.

Is there a game where we concretely know that was the case? or is it just inferred that Toss forgot because he stopped probing at 12 or whatever supply that happens at.

Nah, it's a joke. I think some random guy at an MLG open bracket tried it against State. Because it was put on stream, that poor fellow will live forever in infamy. A better example might be blocking your expansion with a pylon or something (San back in GSL 2011), but it's less common now in the current HotS meta now that FFE isn't too common.

It has to have happened, though I'd rather say I was going for a shitty nexus first than cop to it.

In the game at MLG, the guy already had planted the pylons in State's main, then realized his collosal mistake

If I'm recalling correctly, it was Gaulzi (Nevermind. It was Weedamins?), the cannon rush master, which is why it was so hilarious.

Happy just isn't on Snute's level. That's the tricky thing about showmatches: For a successful showmatch, you ideally want to find 2 players who are very close in skill level so that there is a close series (more games, more content, arguably better content). But it's tricky to find 2 players at the high levels of play who are closely matched.

This could have been slated a while ago, but I wouldn't say Happy was there with Snute in TvZ in the last 6 months plus. a TvT showmatch could be fun with Happy, but this is just two people on different levels.

Intern score was 11-6 to Happy. He's just letting Snute catch up. Very manner.

As much as the score says that this is domination from Snute, these games are really enjoyable to watch.

I have been enlightened by sky Terran

ROFL Snute, 4k mineral/minute.
|
12k in bank, still growing fast. Not bad
|
This is so hilarious watching Snute die to free units
|
Those casters dont know what they are talking - "too many zerg workers"... snute is playing beyond caster understanding. He just deflected terran army near spores and spines! And took a TON of resources and gas in his bank!!
Best game..

And then Snute runs out of fucks to give.

This game has made this showmatch

This is now a split-map situation. On alterzim.

Snute is down to 4k, his bank is nearly depleted

That was a good 1 hour game. Can someone make a poll so we can vote for this.
|
Even mass raven lost. I'd like to see a better Terran try to pull it off against a better Zerg, to see if it was a viable strategy.

Maybe they shouldn't match up a foreign Z vs a foreign T if they don't want to have a sweep, lol.

This was NOT imbalance. Snute is just incredibly good and Happy not that much. Bunny would have stand a better chance.

Maybe Happy shoulda just played for the 4 hour game instead of moving his troops across the halfway point of the map D:

Thank you all so much for tuning in - it was an amazing showmatch with some really amazing games - the final map score does not do it justice!
Look forward to seeing you all next month for another showmatch - remember, without your support, donations and subscriptions this content wouldn't be possible to make - thank you all <3
