silly question but I just want to doublecheck it.
...The AOL is an online tournament...
is it correct that these matches will NOT be played at GOM studio? So, no chance to watch the matches except the stream/vods? Yeah. Only can be viewed online. I assume based on your post you would be in Korea around that time. If you wait 1 extra week, the regular GSL will be starting on the 9th of Jan at probably 1810 KST. That you can watch from the studio 100%
right, I'm in Seoul but will leave on monday 9th at night, so I'm able to watch the first matches on this monday. Just found out that there are proleague matches in the first week of jan 2012, wuepa!.
Anyway, thx for your help.

Only 2 Terrans and they're not that good so MarineKing should win this

Are you joking? TOP not a good player? Both those terrans are pretty good.

If you don't like the joke, just ignore it. do you even know about the kong line. lol i feel your pain. I didnt even watch brood war or pay ANY attention and these posts make me think "do people even read?" http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/YellOwnot that hard :/ loses in MAJOR starleagues, wins non major tourneys = 1st place in AoL is king of kong How are people that never followed broodwar suppose to get these references? I don't think anyone that don't know about the references in the op would get the idea to look up yellow's liquipedia page. There is some references to Kong and a link to some weird dance thread in the op, and you wonder why people don't get it right away? By all means, be sad that people don't know about broodwar history but it shouldn't really come as a suprise.
The irritation is not in the fact that people don't know, it's that people don't know AND feel the need to voice an uneducated opinion about it. Sometimes angrily, no less.

This is a pretty genius idea for a tournament, I'm smiling just thinking of the idea. Glad they have a decent sense of humour, they should post-tournament jokingly give a "King of Kong" trophy to Marineking just for the hell of it. Either way, this is a stacked tournament. Weakest player probably Rainbow, otherwise everyone is amazing quality players.
*Edit* - I don't know why everyone thinks MKP has this in the bag. I actually think he's an underdog to DongRaeGu or Leenock at the moment, not to mention Losira as well. ToP is also a sharp competitor, so I think it will be a fair and balanced event. Don't get surprised if MKP loses in round 1 to any of the aforementioned names.

Kinda boring. MKP will win this for sure.
Hope they do the Kong dance again.
|
Given the player list, this should be MKP's tournament to lose
*see wut I did thar*

TOP has good macro, but awful micro.
EDIT: That is why he was "good" when it was GomTvT - TvTs are mostly macro orientated, and especially around when mech was coming into fashion but BFHs weren't taking over, macro was far more important.
He has terribad TvP for the opposite reason - PvT revolves a lot around micro rather than macro.
From the perspective of MKP, he has a far better chance against TOP because TOP has shocking micro. And you can't face MKP and have a good chance with bad micro.

Zergs should dominate this pretty hard. 4/8 zergs, and they're pretty much the current top zergs too, specially drg/nock.

this tournament is so unnecessary, MarineKing is the official king of kong of sc2, why need a tournament to decide whos the best of the finalists, when the king of kong should be based on who had the most 2nd places.

This is a special tournament, the kind that  YellOw, the very First Kkong always won... hence winning this would secure your title as the King of Kongs!

I'm starting to feel a bit annoyed that I bought the yearly light ticket instead of the premium. The price difference is $30 and I paid $10 for the Blizzard Cup with the light. Now I feel like they're going to keep adding on free tournaments to the premium ticket and I'll end up paying more for less  . Oh well should be fun.

Inca guaranteed last place. The guy has no good matchups except PvP. Also its funny to see DRG in the lineup since he won GOM's LG 3D tournament over sC.fOu at the time, back in like june or july

Isn't that the whole idea of the system? Pay less = get less? Really confused by this post.

MKP or Inca will take this

metropolis, sigh, more maps with free thirds

I'm thinking MKP or Losira will win this.
