SET THE MOOD

**If Admins could change the title from Avilo to [IS]Binksi and to a showmatch I would be grateful(on the TL calendar as well), as Avilo has been replaced**

Are you prepared for what is quite possibly the biggest SC2 Event to happen within 12 hours of the WCS GSL CODE S KAPPA KOREA MANGO SIX SEASON ONE FINALS?

Of course not, here's some info:

****Major Edit: Avilo did not realize he had scheduled the match when he had previously committed to a LAN, and has been replaced with Infinity Seven Binski****

Time: Saturday June 1st 2013 - 1200EST - 900PST - 1800CEST - 100KST
Place: WinterStarcraft's Stream - twitch.tv/zlfreebird
Who: Insidious' Bonk vs Avilo Infinity Seven Binski!
What: Bo9 Showmatch
Why: For 100$ and endless NA bragging rights


Alright, now you're primed up, time to introduce your heroes, competing in a showmatch that will be remembered for days, if not weeks!

Hailing from Pennsylvania, a man with more determination than Innovation's TvZ, a man who knows his way around pylons placed more suspiciously than the motives of Team Eclypsia, a man who likes his women like he likes his build orders:tightentertaining and little bit less than standard, I give you...From Team Insidious...

-----------------------------------BONK-----------------------------------

[image loading]


Another beautiful American hero putting his hand into the ring, a Terran who has ventured where no Terran has gone before, the late...late game. Not to be constricted to a single style or strategy though, AVILO, like the bald eagle, will not hesitate to let things fly. Whether it be proxy buildings, nuclear and/or seeker missiles, you can count on Avilo to have another trick up his headband.

Unfortunately Avilo did not realize until after he scheduled the match with the match sponsor(who is providing the prize pool of the match) that he was previously committed to attending the DC LAN. As the match time was already set and agreed upon, I am proud to introduce the new challenger, hailing from Team Infinity Seven:

----------------------------------------------BINSKI------------------------------------------

[image loading]

You can read more about Binski and his decorated history as well as his recent acquisition to Infinity Seven here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=414543


THE CASTER:

Hi, I'm WinterStarcraft, and I am honored to bring you such an entertaining match. I am a top masters Random player, and constantly cast/commentate on my stream in preparation to do these beautiful players justice. I stream nightly the same place this match will be held: http://www.twitch.tv/zlfreebird and will be giving out a free WinterGaming T-Shirt during the match!

MAKE SURE TO TUNE IN SATURDAY June 1ST AT NOON EST OVER AT http://www.twitch.tv/zlfreebird

I actually sort of want Avilo to win so that he won't complain (as much) afterwards.

Could you explain why this is a grudgematch to those who don't follow these players? o.o

I know of them and have played them but why are you calling it a grudgematch other than the fact that Bonk is Protoss. Always seemed like a manner guy to me. Set the stage with background info

Indeed, some back story as to why this is actually a grudge match would be great ;O
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

It's a grudematch because both are mid-high NA GMs who meet on the ladder occasionally, nothing but friendly competition between them so far as I know. Until Saturday.

And as every high master-GM knows, players start to have histories together after hitting each other on the ladder several times(especially when they both stream), and this will be their opportunity to fight it out for both bragging rights, and cold electronic cash to back it up.

aw yeah I totally approve of this grudge match

edit: This is happening at noon or midnight on Saturday? there's a DC LAN going on June 1st, I want to make sure I don't conflict with this and avilo can still make the LAN...hopefully he can play these matches from the LAN center or something if it's at noon.

I beat you on ladder in a PvP today (yes ladies and gentleman, that's right, a Protoss vs Protoss), you tried to proxy two gate me, i held it off easily and then killed you with DTS and BM'd you for being bad!

NOW IT'S A GRUDGE MATCH BRING IT !

This isn't a real grudge match unless there is something more than $100 on the line. I wish the BW grudge matches would come back

This just seems more like a showmatch from what I've seen in the thread? Well either way good luck to both players :p

the clue is in the name sir, a GRUDGE match - there should be, as aformentioned, some form of animosity in the match
