Nerchio vs ShowTime finals now, yay!

Nerchio in good shape today :d

you outplayed me
For Showtime to outplay Nerchio, Nerchio needs not to outplay himself first.

At least you've learned that it isn't going for a scouted mass overlord drop on top of 8 stalkers and 3 photon overcharges.

1 button defense, sick :D

It's so sad, Showtime was Nerchio was soooooo hype in 2016. But recently you just know how it's gonna end.
Will the Hydra buff be enough to change something? I just want to see enjoyable PvZs again.
|
OP will be updated later once we have new bracket links but due to massive reshuffling due to IEM here's how the following will play out for Feb/March Corsair cups:
FEB
Cup #3 - Friday 24th
Monthly Finals - Monday March 13th
MARCH
Cup #1 - March 6th
Cup #2 - March 15th
Cup #3 - March 20th
Monthly Finals - 29th
|
Updated with new sign up links for Season 3.
Additionally, still waiting to hear back on a few folks who attended IEM to see if they have accepted their invite to the monthly finals.

...regarding today Season 2 Finals I don't get why Neeb is playing since he did not play in any of the three events awarding points for the Finals... were all the "after 8 place" players unavailable to play this evening?
EDIT: sorry, I answer myself: he won Season 1 Finals...

You need to be twice as good to win in ZvP these days, at equal level there is little balance in this match up

Early last year I still had hope for ZvP, but now that it's figured out the matchup is pretty disgusting, design and balance wise I think.
Warpprisms and Skytoss are just so infuriating. Also the fact that Protoss economy is way closer to zerg economy now compared to WoL or HotS.
Still hoping for some magic hydra drops or something  . GL!

Had to change pants after map 4. Sick play!

Rifkin said s.th. about Dong wars part2. When will it start? Where can I look up such info(I dont use twitter or facebook)?

Reminder that the new home of the corsair cup is being tested on fridays, no longer mondays
|
|
|
|
|
For the month of June, we'll be missing a large portion of the month due to WCS Qualifiers, Zombiegrub flying to Korea + both Zombiegrub & Rifkin flying to Toronto for the Gameland Invitational. Rather than cancel a month worth of cups, we're temporarily restructuring BTSL as well as the Corsair Cup to better fit our schedule. Overall prize pools for the month will remain the same, but be combined to create 1 large prize.
New format is as follows:
- 8 Players invited
- 2x4 player groups leading to Ro4
Dates and invited players will be posted later.
|
How on earth did you arrive at this seeding for the finals bracket? It does not follow Corsair tournament results, WCS standings, Aligulac ratings. Is this totally random or is this just a provisional bracket?
|
Nerchio vs Showtime once again .
1-1
Hydra drops incoming

Regarding:
These cups are being moved, dates to be determined. Between WESG and the players attending it, there just isn't enough folks to fill bracket. Will come back to update once we have new dates!

History could've had Neeb get heroically defeated after an epic series, rather than unceremoniously keel over to a bunch of lings. Congratulations on becoming the eternal Corsair Cup champion though.
