Saturday, 04/09/10 14:00h HuK vs KiWiKaKi
Is the most interesting match to me. What match do you want to see the most?
|
me and cauthonluck fight to the death
|
Artosis vs the three terrans
|
anything but not a mirror MU but HuK vs Kiwi would be ok since they did some great PvP against each other in MLG
|
So where can we watch it?

I want to know what days the American Finals are occurring. I'd like to go down to NYC to see them, But can only go for one day. So I'd prefer to go on the days the actual final is happening.

Round 1 Saturday, 04/09/10 14:00h HuK vs KiWiKaKi Saturday, 04/09/10 15:30h drewbie vs CauthonLuck
Round 2 Saturday, 04/09/10 17:00h IdrA vs TT1 Saturday, 04/09/10 18:30h HuK vs Machine
Round 3 Sunday, 05/09/10 15:30h KiWiKaKi vs Machine Sunday, 05/09/10 17:00h MurDeR vs qxc
These are probably the ones I want to see the most. Can't wait
|
Probably going to watch as much as I humanly can because I'm a total whore for this stuff, but I'm really interested in seeing all the non-mirrors
|
Lots of sick matchups. Good luck vs Cauthon, drewbie. That guy's a monster.
|
Good lord that's alot of terrans. Here's to IdrA/suggy/machine fighting for zerg pride!
|

Looking at the initial schedule there is matches taking place all three days, Oct 8th-10th. Basic rule of thumb; Two group of four (overall 8 players) play on Friday, Semifinals play Saturday and 3rd place game and Finals on Sunday. Hope this helps...
|
why does everyones post say September 4th when it's only the 3rd? wtf..
|
its the 4th if you go by korean time
|
I'm sure IdrA and Artosis are loving those times. lol
First match for IdrA 3:00am kst
First match for Artosis 6:00am kst.

It's not a flip a coin situation it's a who has better control of their units. PvP is a very interesting match up if you understand it.

Artosis played all of his games, and he is also in the GSL. I believe, although im not sure, that Idra was banned from future IEM events. I just think I heard it somewhere

Looking forward to Kiwi v Machine.

Negative. Artosis skipped his last set with CauthonLuck
