Hey I thought it would be a good idea if people had somewhere to brag about who they have played against!
Which big name players have you played on your Pokerstrategy.com TSL2 ladder adventure?
Feel free to brag, discuss, tell stories, write battle reports or upload replays about your experiences with what you consider the Superstars of Foreign StarCraft. It doesn't necessarily have to be top48 players or well-known players - they could be local heroes from your homecountry that you respect and admire and got the chance to rub shoulders with in the TSL ladder stages.
Look forward to hearing from everyone!

Stupid Legionnaire made five nexuses and killed all my stuff

I want to play Leg more than any other player, actually.

Post replays of the games!
|
Yah I might have to start asking Leg some favours to play some mates of mine so people can post here cos the biggest name I've faced is Pholon (of TL Arena fame!)
I had planned to get D+ quickly and face WonderS and Leg while I was still reasonably close to them but now it would just look silly against A- and B players.
Oh as added incentive perhaps I can add the best replays/encounters into the OP with links to replays and your name up there or something  If it's really good, squeeze it into an iCCup news post xD

haven't played one of the famous players. the only one i played is that RiboRibo guy who's A- at the moment. he was still D and we played on heartbreak ridge. i proxy gated him but somehow he scouted my gateways with his initial lings right away and it was gg without coming to a game really.
|
Played twice vs Dreiven on destination, first game early goon pressure put me behind, and then he finished me with a simultaneos reaverdrop / nat break.
Game two lasted a whole 15minutes, and the combination of my sloppy control and his macro killed me when i tried to take my third. GG's.
Although I think my finest hour was winning a game vs a B- toss player by 2facting him.
|
I won a game vs dashwriter who is pretty famous in germany. I got a huge advantage and then almost lost the 40 min PvZ on HBR. One of the best games I played so far
|
Unfortunately I missed my chance to play the top active players
I did play and win vs liquid_nazgul though.
http://repdepot.net/replay.php?id=25941
Purely through build order win, he was greedy going nexus first vs my overpool and could have done a better job of defending with probes I guess but well I killed the cannons with my first lings, and eventually killed his natural with more lings, after that it was pretty much over, he still tried to hold on going one base dts but I am not THAT bad ^^
Theoretically not a win worth bragging about, but whatever, I beat an ex pro gamer, how many D+ players can say that of themselves :D
|
i played treehuger on D- level with my TSL account.
later i tryed to play with my standard (non TSL) account, and again he joined.
after 30 seconds of game he realised that we were breaking the TSL rules and decided to quit.
that man really loves TL.

So you just compared   Legionnaire to the former chief of the Gestapo? Yeah, that's smart.

at least he started his post with "OH SHIT"
doesn't make it any better though...
|
To be fair, they do look a little similar.
|
Played two games against morrow in which he humiliated me. I wont post the reps though due to horrible play on my behalf (not that i would´ve won anyways...).
|
I never got the chance to play ANY of the top players, and unless i manage to somehow go from D+ to A- in a couple of days i don't see myself playing them any time soon ;_;

I guess that means Bisu is Hitler?

Cool thread
So I played:
- Ret: REPLAY
I did a really late +1 zealot push and he went mutas.. + some manner talk at the beginning
- Advokate: REPLAY
He owned me with a proxy 2 fact + some manner talk at the end
- Louder: REPLAY
Well he just outmicroed and outmacroed me + some manner talk
I'll post some more later.

I knew it.

I suck pretty bad (stuck at C rank) so these are all games of me being raped pretty hard
Vs Xiaozi
Vs Machine
Vs Shauni
Vs Octzerg
Vs Dimaga
Vs Fenito
Vs Kashu
Vs Coldfire
Vs LimbiC
Sorry for the big post, most of these games are 5 minute ling rapes, but since you asked for replays, I thought I would add them.

Wow, I didn't think this would be taken so seriously...
But I guess it's hard to make light-hearted jokes in reference to Nazi leaders. Sorry, I'll try to be more PC in the future.

I am going to go ahead and strait up ignore the obvious historical reference here and just pretend you are talking about WW1 where France.
Not WW2 where they got 3-0 raped by Germany.

Its the internet, you don't have to be PC. lol I doubt any of these people are seriously offended by you comparing the physical features of leg to a nazi.
That would be retarded. Especially considering in nal_rA vs savior shit from 06/07 they paint savior as hitler.

I had two games of note. I got to play Ret during the first day of the TSL. He picked toss, but I did not care it was super fun to play vs him anyway. He such a nice guy .This is the replay.
http://www.repdepot.net/replay.php?id=25969
I also got to play octzerg zvz. That game he killed me in a ling war pretty badly lol.
It really is amazing how much presser good players put on there opponents. In both games the major differents I felt from playing vs normal people is that there army is always moving and poking around the map.

Not sure if anyones noticed yet, but IdrA hit A+
