Update: The show has been postponed exactly one day. This will now be happening Thursday, Apr 04 7:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00), 24 hours from our original start time. Sorry for the change everyone!
TL Attack 2013 Episode 4 will happen on Wednesday, Apr 03 7:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00), about half a week from now. VODs will be made available following the broadcast.
For the fourth episode of 2013’s edition of TL Attack our guest will be Chad Motherfucking "Minigun" Jones. An American Protoss player for ROOT, we’ll be attempting to learn more about him because as we find out from his MLG interview he apparently doesn't think about things besides StarCraft. Hopefully we don’t discover it is because he is running from a dark past of running dog fighting rings.
Trying to forget the horrors of yesterday.
VOD
In case you missed the previous episode with Grubby, the VODs are up on our YouTube Channel.
Hosts
As usual our hosts will be the wonderful EG.iNcontroL and the fantastic ROOT.CatZ. Last episode Grubby showed he has what it takes in HotS by proxying Nexuses and defeating a badly trash talking 3v3 team, now we find out if Minigun can do the same. We’ll also be sure to show off the extreme map that has Incontrol and CatZ as neutral observer critters.

Do you want to play?
OK so do you want to play against the special guest on the show, in front of potentially millions of tenths of hundreds of thousands of viewers? Here's your chance: create a cheerful in true TL Attack spirit using this template:
You can put anything you want on it, about any subject (the players, host, show, TL, ESPORTS in general, etc) and we'll even show it on stream before you play your match. Just post your cheerful in this thread with your battle.net ID (character + code) and we'll invite the winners during the show, so make sure to watch.
Of course this will all be in Heart of the Swarm to remember to get your expansion packs ready if for some reason you haven't practiced up on your silliest cheeses.
Come back Wednesday for the exciting continuation of TL Attack!
TeamLiquid Attack! is a fun, casual event where a popular professional StarCraft 2 player plays custom 1v1s against community members. Typically, the player attempts creative or non-serious strategies while sharing friendly banter with the hosts. The show is a great way to get to know the personality of the popular player that might not normally be seen in serious ladder games or in tournaments.
Previous episodes of TL Attack can be found on TeamLiquid's YouTube Channel, featuring guests like NaNiwa, MorroW, White-Ra, Qxc, and Sheth.

Well, the poster above you probably does not suggest picking a Korean player randomly. If you specifically pick one with good English, the "general" does not really matter. :-)

PS he is streaming LoL right now...why not get a full Sc2 player?
might tune in for a bit anyways to see if yall do any funny stuff
Full-time does not mean doing nothing else in your life. You need some free time to relax. People like MC or Idra play LoL as well, they just don't stream it.
I'm looking forward to TL attack. Minigun is great player and fun personality, should be a great fit.

I'd much rather get iDra or MC on this, or Polt/viOlet. Not taking anything from MiniGun but he doesn't compare to past guests.
Oooooh yes! TL attack is always so entertaining, almost as psyched for this as I am for Game of Thrones!!!! (ok not really, but it still should be good!)
I sure wish they would stop having EG Incontrol host everything and actually play more professional matches.. he is stepping more and more out of competition and more into the caster booth. I dunno if its becuase he thinks he can't compete at the highest level or his team thinks he can't Im sure if he stoped hosting so much stuff and started playing practicing like a top tier player again his results would be even better
Update on this. We'll be postponing the show this week by one day - so instead of Wednesday it will be Thursday, Apr 04 7:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00) exactly one day later.
Why oh why, I was at like at 500 apm trying to make a good picture in 20 minutes, until suddenly here comes a postpone. EDIT: might as well submit it Overlord.1935 EU

I actually think of it as the reverse. I think Incontrol is so incredibly good at casting and hosting events I get sooooooooooo happy when he does because it make sit so enjoyable for me,
anyways the lineup for this looks like so much fun, im glad i didnt miss it
Incontrol has a rare ability to be natural on the mic/in front of the camera. Makes him fun to listen to/watch. If he wants to do more of that than playing, more power to him

lol what the hell was he warned for? :D
Yeah I was wondering the same, he phrased his opinion very tastefully. I personally love IC as a caster, I was surprised how good he is at casting when I first saw him in tournaments. He probably would be a better player if he played more and casted less too, so what was said was true. This said, I personally think he'd struggle to compete at the top tournament level against the likes of Life, Leenock, creator and other top koreans, even with extra practice, but think he's a great game personality so hope he continues with his casting.

You're on TL man, be careful not to step out of line :D
Oh man Incontrol is so fucking funny. I feel so guilty everytime I just die laughing because of all the other times I made fun of him for not having great results. Thank god for this man.

"Colossi. It's fine."
When Incotrol said that a Collosus falling over to shoot up it reminded me of a scne in X-men Origins: Wolverine, when sabretooth trips up cyclops and ends up like cutting the school in half with his laser-eyes.
