Oh my, the PvPs. I kinda hoped to be busy, but I managed to finish debugging my code yesterday, so I have a pretty free day and I will probably not be able to restrain myself from this self-inflicted torture.
herO and Stats will pass. Damn why do I have time for this and no time for yesterday's group
This group really stretches the timing skills of TL people. Yesterday it was wrong in the calendar, today in the LR OP

Oh yeah i forgot that BW is taken precedent over StarCraft II again xD
One might argue that this time is actually better for at least eastern NA (while the same for EU), so it might be an upgrade, not downgrade
heart: sOs and Stats head: sOs and herO
Trap going out first, Im calling it
It's 21 Korean time, how come so late?

Because BW are using the studio for qualifiers right now. Oh wait no the BW was yesterday, not sure what is going on today but Thursday isn't normally a SC 2 night so i assume something else is on
I predict that... two protoss will advance out of this group.
Stats and herO i guess 2nd match sos vs herO is huge!!!!

Then yes, it's better It has become rather monotonous with basically one major "slash two armies against each other" composition based around archoons and immortals, but at least the games are somewhat long usually. There is still the risk of phoenix vs. phoenix though which makes for the most boring game humanly possible.

It was taldarim altar, actually.
Alterzim Altar sounds like the worst map ever made
I can always blame the hit to the head for that

Do shield batteries work the same as in BW?
On February 22 2018 21:28 KristofferAG wrote: Do shield batteries work the same as in BW?
They're auto-cast. You just need to be vicinity and it'll restore friendly unit shields. Pretty sure the SC1 Shield Battery restores shields WAY faster, the SC2 ones restore shields at around the same rate that Medivacs heal. EDIT: Oh one other big difference. Shield Batteries can restore shields to structures in SC2. I don't remember if the SC1 ones do that.

On February 22 2018 21:28 KristofferAG wrote: Do shield batteries work the same as in BW?
The principle is the same, they recharge shields for mana, but for some reason they are immensely more popular, so maybe the numbers are different? Also they can be set to autocast (targets units and canons, not normal building, that would drain them in a moment).

Not to be a jerk, but according to Liquipedia they heal literally 4x as fast as a medivac. (50.4 per second vs 12.6 per second)

With 1 in Ro8, they are doing pretty strong on the whining front. Also Innovation lost to Scarlett.

ByuN is just bad these days. If Maru could take a game off Classic, the best player in the world, he can definitely beat Trap.
They should both just double expand before gate

Ofcourse sOs and herO open up with dts, could it really have been any other way?
Why did neither side try to save workers by running them around the map for a while?
Oh no, he let him mine the last 4 gas for the observer... Pretty big error by sOs
that 74 gas of herO is hilarious.

In the GSL round of 16 you know your opponent didn't get there by mistake. You know they've also probably studied the hell out of you. Inno got sniped out hardcore, it wasn't like Snute or Neeb just macro-god-moding for a day. Rogue and sOs both also lost to her recently so this one is squarely on Innovation's shoulders for underestimating an opponent.
back to back base trades lol.
Why would herO try to fight blink stalkers with his probes lol

Nexus take a lot to kill, and sOs still had money and probes, so could have spammed a bunch of pylons or a cyber core or smth.

Guess he’s proving us wrong haha. Still think Trap is favoured next match, but who knows.
This cast is amazing
Stats to complete the usual rematch curse and give me 2/2 LB's for the week
And this is the thing I was talking about earlier
Stats did the big strategical trick plan of showing himself weak in the first bo3 only to backstab and come back harder
10/10 forcefields by Stats, damn
rofl Trap Good job, Stats.
Sometimes PvP is fun, sometimes it's like this
OMG Stats made it out I'm so happy
Pleasantly surprised by Stats’ recovery. Classic vs Stats is going to be fun.
yeah those forcefields would have triggered me if i was playing.
nooo trap...... Stats has no chance vs Classic
i expected that hero doing it quite better than he actually did...disappointment
Now i see Dark in finals, maybe even...as champ.
Maru vs sOs in the ro8 :O there's a match you almost never see
Why is sOs always performing well in GSL but garbage in every other tournament?
sOs just played with his food. So smart... man.

He said in an interview last year that he's happy with the money he's earned, and that his only goal is to win GSL for the prestige. Most other tournaments he either bombs out or just does meme builds.

Pros have disappointed in that respect over the past few years. Zest botched that one cannon rush so badly that no one has cannon rushed in PvP since then. Even Chinese players who still cannon rush do so exclusively in PvZs (which is a bit weird).
