How the hell I didn't see this torunament? Can't wait to see the new widow mine and MsC
I love to cast this on Sunday for the polish viewers!
|
Gogo Dragon! I really hope he actually shows up for this, and not just leave walkover as he did against d.Killer in their showmatch. 
|
|
|
go rottttyyy !! you got this dude =D
|
This should be in the tourney section as well, it doesn't get enough attention I feel
|
|
|

Rotterdam is a no-show...!
|
well maybe he didn't hear his alarm clock...
|
Very enjoyable game 2 between MorroW and Destiny. Everything felt so imba :D just like in BW.
|
Yes, I really enjoyed the MorroW-Destiny games. Very back and forth, flanking, attacking, retreating, harassing. And the first game where hydras were used in a reasonable way.
|
yeah i have to agree, awesome games so far. rotterdam yjust woke up and will be playing from the looser bracket
|
Bad play by Delphi
|
delphi said he has some bad lags.. so I think it will be better next game 
And yeah awsome games 
|
Alright these games were as bad as the other ones were good
|
wtf ClouD forfeiting game 2!? that sucks, really. invite someone else next time plz
|
This is an amazing game Dragon vs Morrow
Dragon took like 2 secret expansions but made 120 workers.
I like the caster on Em Starcraft btw, really calm except when action happens.
|
Agreed on the Dragon v Morrow game, that was quite a bit of multitasking. I really like how the new Widow Mine is affecting the matchup.
What are you supposed to do with 15k minerals in the bank in late-game TvT, anyways? :3

I agree, these new widow mines lead to very entertaining games

I'm really loving the new Widow Mine. It seems like an awesome concept, frankly.
Great tournament!

yeah the WM is looking good, but it should not be able to attack cloaked units or AoE hit kill probes an drones.

Adel with the Oracle :D Gogo
|
oracle, lol,
so cute, but, so bad.
|
the oracle action, gaining money with the pylon :D
|
|
|
Oracle
|
Oracles are so underwhelming so far.
|
Dragon should really build a turret under those Oracles lol
|
That game was so wacky.
Oracle draining terran mineral bank.
But I still don't see mech working unless the morrow-adelscott games were a fluke.
|
lol the oracles... like !
|
Adelscott fighting, last foreigner!
|
|
|
maybe time for some Feedback? Did you like the Invites? Number of shown games? Organisation? How to improve?
|
Are there any English vods? Thanks
