The rebroadcast yesterday right after the event was absolutely amazing, thank you IEM. Started up just as I was waking up, it was like I hadn't missed anything. :D
And damn is it nice to have IEM on to distract me while I'm doing that goddamned cardio.

Ah thanks. Hopefully Polt will win this one. Also I guess Flash will be coming to IEM WC even though he's had a massive slump since his really good August lol.
I think Polt will drop out last from his group. He doesn't do so well against zergs that are purely macro beasts (both Hyun and Sen) and herO is herO. He's not gonna lose to Polt

Lol. Every variation of roach bane known to mankind is not being a macro beast.
Is moonglade the only zerg caster on the circuit? I kind of wish we could see Snute cast some games more often. Listening to him at homestory cup almost made ZvZ's seem interesting.

Did you see his games against Taeja in WCS America season 3? Or any other ZvTs of his recently? Hyun's play is really on point, it just doesn't have the trademark Kespa crispness that soO's or Dark's does.

Snute is an amazing caster. He has so much knowledge about the game and equally importantly, he's fantastic at using that knowledge to make games more understandable to viewers. Much much better than the same old tired play by play that we hear from lots of casters.

Moonglade isnt there...?
It was about the pro scene/circuit as a whole. I only see protoss/terran casters everywhere.

I can't think of anyone else who casts and plays Zerg. It seems like it's mostly Protoss players, for whatever reason.

You know what I'm talking about though? the best Kespa players seem to just have this near-perfect macro where everything is just perfectly on time, not too late or too early. Or more likely I'm an idiot and have severe confirmation bias
tactical pauses from herO, not as good as tactical pauses from Shine. herO has yet to reach that level of evil. herO goes twilight council Polt doing all the normal terran things. Has not scouted twilight yet.

I wonder if after LoTV, Blizzard would consider adding LAN support to SC2. Since their primary concern is $ and piracy, a year or so after LoTV release would be the best time to add it.

Main pool? We're betting on SC2 now? Is TL the new Pinnacle of esports?
Funny how the only time Hyun does well at an international tournament in recent times is the only time where he's not seeded and actually has to fight through the open bracket. Maybe that's the trick

I think they are good to have to make your opponent think you are still on two-base, but he got his standard third (a fourth) and didnt have optimum mining in time because of it.

He didn't really have one. His blink aggression got shut down really hard and perhaps he knew he was behind. Hidden bases are so gimmicky though...

Yeah he had really great ZvZ for a long time. One that really sticks out to me is the first time I ever saw Stephano way back in an EG Masters Cup when Sen was on Fnatic he beat Stephano so bad in the ZvZ that he agreed to play Protoss the second game. Sen still won ^^ This was before Stephano's break out

I expect a much more normal game from herO here
so do i and i think he will play much better because of it.

it takes a significant amount of time before it actually pays for itself because it puts you behind in a lot of other things like army and tech

Its not a great plan to have going into a game, but grabbing one when you are being aggressive and preventing your opponent's map presence sometimes works out well.

The problem is when your aggression falls flat on its face like herO's did.

Maybe Polt could have won if he had directed his main force to the third? He could have sniped the third while keeping an avenue of escape, by going into the main he kinda trapped himself. Such a crazy game.
I have to admit even when Polt is slumping his TvP is decent. I wonder who are the top 3 TvPers atm. I used to think Taeja had the best TvP before he got terminated.
MMA? I didn't get to see his GSL games yesterday but how's he looking. There's always Maru as well.

Innovation is probably up there
MKP too
trying to stay as objective as possible, he does have surprisingly good TvP compared to his other matchups

I find it difficult to rate any of MMA's matchups because he plays like a god with preparation but looks awful without it. It's hard to tell if he is just bad at the matchup or simply didn't prepare for it.

After MKP Polt and Bomber during WoL. (Mvp had really weak TvP, he was just smarter and had more will power than his opponents) Innovation early HotS, then Maru/Polt. When Taeja was on he was pretty unstoppable too.

Honestly I don't know if his form suffered or people realized just how predictable he was. Hopefully he can change it up though. His muta ling bane always impressed me for someone who always goes roaches.

the ling bane game he played against Inno at Blizzcon was really hard to watch. Hyun just kept overextending until he died when he looked like he was going to be in a position to easily win. He did have some good games towards the end though like his TvZ vs TaeJa in WCS AM so you could be right about maybe he was just getting to predictable. that ling bane game just made me feel like he was burnt out or something for the year.
Note: If Polt wins this series, the champion of the host nation will be eliminated without ever having played on the main stage. I feel like that's sub-optimal.

Yeah I do recall that game now. It was pretty bad.
Any unit with micro potential in the hands of gods like Rain and herO makes for some amazing games. Sigh.. I hope blizzard understands this with the implementation of LoTV.

that's every day of the week for NA for korean starcraft
I remember when WCS EU NA and KR were all on at the same time
I'd have to wake up for 9am to watch KR, steal some sleep/do actual real life shit until 5pm for WCS EU, then WCS AM at midnight, giving me a few hours sleep until KR again.

Why does Europe have so little passion?
4am during the week. The passion level has to be through the roof if you are watching this from Europe.
that's every day of the week for NA for korean starcraft
NA stays up for their own Starcraft, for EU Starcraft, for KR Starcraft, runs all the Starcraft talk shows, and still deals with people putting it down in literally everything in esports.

FF tactics?
Cult Final fantasy released after FF7.
If you use "cult" and "FF7" in the same sentence, there needs to be a different subject matter in play here.

Love me some FF tactics. Fun game.
Too fun actually, I won't get tired while playing it.
Well at least I get to see more sick starcraft because of it now .
I feel like as terren you have to rethink some of your strategies on expedition. I think the back rocks force you to play slightly more defensive with perhaps a later 3rd cc. otherwise I don't see how you can hold roach all ins on two fronts.

Never played the PS one version though.
I had the PS One Version. Total classic of a game. That's like the only game where I honestly thought I was going to have to play through 10+ hours again because I fucked up and got stuck on a really hard part that tricks you into saving just before the battle...(those who beat it should know the fight I'm referencing..).

It's funny how uneven the difficulty is. One minute they throw you the hardest fucking fight in the game out of the blue, the next you get a particular character that makes the game a total cakewalk from there on.

different translations. I heard neither are actually that accurate funnily enough so its just a preference thing. The PS one version had better loading times, but less features.

That medivac pickoff hurt my soul. I came back to this game late. Can someone explain why Polt is making widowmines instead of tanks? Surprised he didn't float a base to an island either.

He should have taken an island third so he could have turtled in his natural. Don't know why he didn't
I don't understand why Polt doesn't build tanks and change his play style. He knew it was going to be Roach Hydra. It's the reason why he loses half the time.

I don't know man it seems really bad today. Lots of spam and general creepiness about sue.
On another note I want to hear some unbiased and objective opinions about Naniwa's play. Regardless of his personality which I find grating at times I think he brings attention to the scene and generates a lot of hype. I'll start. His control and engagement management seemed very good but his builds seem really off. I don't see him getting past RO16 this season but would like to be proven wrong. What will be interesting to see is if he sticks it out and improves to a Snute/Scarlett level of foreigner or whines and finds a reason to quit again.

I feel like you haven't really paid attention to twitch chat before. Whenever a female is shown the chat always gets that way. It's just a bad place to be :p
I don't think Nani is at IEM.. Might wanna wait for WCS to discuss him.
There's no overseer right? Classic would have won easily if he had just sat on his nexus, built a dark shrine instead of those 2 cannons and made a DT to kill the hatch

If you want to start an off-topic discussion to kill time, don't make it something that could spark an argument. Make it something more lighthearted, like which caster you think is the best dancer or some weird shit like that.

K, no one's voting in the polls, and I'm dying so I'm going to bed. All the polls are made and in the OP if anyone else wants to post/vote in them. GG, sleeps wins. passion is eliminated.
Evening Downfall. Welcome to what once was an LR thread.
I see the schedule has decimated the crowd?
Partially schedule, partially length, little bit because of the technical issues.
How long did tech issues last?
Not super-long, I don't think. They were on the stream's end, not the game's. Rain and Harstem go in for a big fight, stream goes down, comes back with both of them down 70 supply, goes down again, then I just went to watch it on Take.

I was talking about Snute haha. Sen had very little chance to advance from that group either way.
Out of the six PvP maps so far, I think only one of them actually went to the more "traditional" PvP, i.e. 1-to-2-base aggression wars that end before either player hits Colossus tech.

It also shows just how much Maynarde (with the "e", not the worker transfer dude) loves the game.
oh I wasn't bashing him (my bad on the spelling), cause his casting has been really good - I was just saying it demonstrates how hard doing play by play in the engagements when you have to be super fast is. makes you really appreciate how Nathanias can do it.
This is basically how Harstem's series against Rain went, except 20 minutes longer and on higher tech. Takes a big advantage and just made these tiny mistakes that cost him.

Even the games he lost against Rain he had major advantages in. Not going to say he's throwing but he does seem to be making mistakes or getting outplayed in the later stages of the games.

Whilst i think that statement is true, don't forget the players he is playing with/against. Just ask Oli about the level of PvP Classic and Rain have and im pretty sure they are both top 3 in his rankings at PvP

Would you say they are literally 10x the players Harstem is?

Don't forget Zest, sOs, andddd Creator! :D
Has Harstem ever trained in Korea? Honestly I think he's capable of playing on the same level as Snute (Code A/RO 32 Code S) but he tends to make some mistakes in the late game despite some clever play. Micro mistakes, afraid of engagements, and some minor decision choices.

I feel he plays great but the skill difference means that if he makes a small mistakes he gets punished, he's not throwing at all, he just can't keep the same level as Classic and Rain all game long.

Maybe 1.5x at most. The only major difference imo is experience (they experience these high level games more often) and crisper mechanics/decision making.

I mean if some other clever foreigners didn't make so many micro mistakes, wouldn't be afraid of things and made better decisions they'd also probably be Code A/RO32 Code S level.

While I could expand on other parts of this post, I'll simply say that Harstem did train in Taiwan as an invited competitor in a previous TeSL, where he finished third overall.

maybe this foreigner didn't decide to skip baneling nest
I expected better from Sen Harstem is apparently doing great
I was talking about Snute haha. Sen had very little chance to advance from that group either way.
I never understood why people consider Sen to be so good, for 4 years he didn't show anything impressive

Is that what you think? What I think is that SEn has been playing in Taiwan for a while now, showed top tier foreigner results before sticking to Taiwan, and also while being in Taiwan. I'm not going to say he's been one of the top players in the world, but the games he's shown have definitely been top tier as far as foreigners are concerned.
Winning the Taiwan Open is also pretty big. Not HUGE, but definitely a worthy accomplishment.
I'd like to know what brings you to make a post like that.
