Fuck yeah, this is gonna be epic.
Idra 3-0, gogogo!
|
Can't wait for this.
TvP with two of my American comrades! The best thing ever!
|
Very nice.
BTW - the artwork looks sick as usual!

Excellent. Who's behind the banner?
|
Hype! Let's hope that NonY can steal a game or two and make things interesting. GL and HF!
|
This would be very hard to predict if Nony was in his best shape, but as of now I really can't see him winning (although it would be great). I predict 3-0 or 3-1. Awesome series nonetheless!
|
woot gogo idra!! you gotta skate!

Oh man if Chill and Artosis are casting together, does this mean a double dose of the Plott magic could be in our future?!?!
|
The Idra drawing is really good but the other guy doesn't look like Nony.
Really looking forward to this! Hope Nony did tons of super secret practicing.
|
Will there be rep (pack) of the game(s) for those of us that cant watch live?
|
cant wait! Idra this is your time to show a onesided ownage!
|
Nony has been quiet and none of us have even seen him play. Gotta watch out for the quiet ones.....he's got something up his sleeve!
This is GM (good mannered Nony) vs BM (bad mannered Idra) :D

i have question about how many viewers will be allow to watch this online? will be chat on/off?
thx

I really really want NonY to win but IdrA is probably going to win 3-0 or 3-1 :[

gawd Idra looks SO MUCH like Harry Potter rofl Idra 3-1 imo
|
is nony practicing at all...he just got married?
|
|
Woho! Cant wait for this!
|
So why is this streamed live while the qualifiers R1/2 aren't allowed to stream their games? The only reason for the latter I can think of is that people can log onto each others streams to get information, but surely this is possible also with Idra and Nony. Are there observes physically present?
|
Nony should be able to take 1 game atleast.
|
amazing artwork.
gogogo IdrA
|
So that's how the Liquid´ jersey looks, what's the icon on it?
|
Go Idra, entertain us with nerdrage and BM when you lose a game to noob toss's. I wont be hating. I will be lovin'.

There are many reasons for this, the main ones being lag, production, and audience time zones.
As for R1/R2, the results and replays will be released immediately following completion of their games.

3-1 to Nony, with Idra winning the first and breaking down after losing to cheese in the second set.

Yeah he's been away for the longest time <_<

this is going to be great
|
It really depends on what types of games nony wants to play, if he chooses to play macro games, idra will win, but if he goes 2-gate/early timing pushes, he might steal a game or two, looking forward to the games!
|
|
This is gonna be great.. Hoping that Nony can take a 1 or 2 games off Idra.. Looking forward to this!
|
Like both players but I'd probably be more disappointed if Idra lost. Hope to see some ggs and maybe some bm as well.
|
wow amazing art who made this?
|
These casts will be recorded and posted somewhere right?

I hope he was trying some tricky stuff :D

idra > nony idra > nony idra < nony <Destination> = sucks for T in TvP idra > nony
3:1

It's just for seeding, neither player can be knocked out by this, right?
|
Although the chances of it are infinitesimally small, I really hope Nony comes through and wins. Been waiting for a Nony interview for quite some time. All in good time, I hope. Good luck, Nony!!!

Idra and Nony look a lot less sexy in real life than that artwork make them out to be. This should be sick either way.

OMG this is gonna be epic!

I like how idras leg is wrapped around nony, very homoerotic, well done :o Predicting 3:1 for nony if idra gets lucky.
|
rooting for the underdog. GOO NONY!
|
This is going to be so good, it really seemed like when TSL was announced that the actual tournament was ages away but it crept up so quickly, I can not wait!
also, did the art team do these kind of full-body shots for all the top 48(+4)? If so, can they release them like after the event or something, they're really good and considering that some won't be used it would be a shame if we never got to see them.

Wow, Idra actually looks pretty bad ass in that poster. If only the artist gave him more muscles and a "Deny Everything" shirt that would be perfect.

lololol, the artwork is sooo effin EPIC  guy who did it is my hero.

I'm pretty sure that Idra will take this. Anything can happen in PvT though, so let's see.

As for the stream: Will there be another embedded stream on the website like last time with its own dedicated page? I found that to be a very cool option that made it easier for a lot of newer viewers to jump into.

They should just tell people that it's Live, so it'll feel more exciting.
Also I don't get why they're not using Livestream. Livestream is basically free bandwidth and everybody is already used to using it to watch korean games. It's also extremely reliable and can't go down.

I hope there will be some opportunity to incorporate live game casts at some point during the TSL instead of 100% replay casts. Obviously a fully live cast with no player lag or caster lag or stream problems would be great. Unfortunately at this point we cannot have a fully live cast given all the issues with it. If all our players, casters, and observers were from one country, we could have a live cast. But that's not the case, so we can't do it.
I assume "incorporate live game casts at some point" is just another way to ask "will there be fully live casting?" The answer is no, unless in the next few weeks we discover a way to make international lag disappear.
As for the stream: Will there be another embedded stream on the website like last time with its own dedicated page? I found that to be a very cool option that made it easier for a lot of newer viewers to jump into. For the Ro16 this will probably be the case, but for the Idra vs Nony match I am not sure yet.

Also I don't get why they're not using Livestream. Livestream is basically free bandwidth and everybody is already used to using it to watch korean games. It's also extremely reliable and can't go down. Our stream going down last time was not the result of LiveStream but a result of the encoding program used to observe the games (and add video elements, etc). Now we use a much better, more stable encoding program, so there will definitely be fewer (if any) stream crashes. Whether we use LiveStream or not does not impact stream reliability.

Let's go Tyler! Show 'em what you got
|
In straight up games, Idra will win 3-0, Nony could really make it interesting with some cheese though.
|
Nony will be pulling his pants back up after playing the Id..if you guys know what I'm talking about..I'd say it out loud but I might tickle a moderator's nerves again.

Nony was a monster in his prime. If hes been practicing to get back on his game for this, he stands a very very high chance of taking a few games if not winning. He did extremely well in the last tsl, and almost won courage his first attempt. The man is most likely a sleeping dragon waiting for the right moment to come back into this world, if only briefly. This series may just do that.
Go Go nony

nony got some botox work, sigrun clearly focused his time on idra

maybe idra can win one game... @(^_____^)@

Pretty sure IdrA will win without dropping a game but I wish NonY gl! Surprise us.

3-1 Idra but is going to be very good
expecting great commetns from chill and artosis
|
i kinda hope nony takes this, as i'm sure idra will win the group stage if he gets knocked down, nony might have a harder time due to him being inactive so if he can steal some games and pull out the win vs idra it would be sweet.
|
Really expecting idra to take this easily, because how much time does Nony really have to play sc, considering he's in college?
|
I don't see nony winning this is a straight up game, being a smart guy he probably knows this and has been practicing 3 amazing cheese builds that nobody has ever seen before.

Rofl, Idra lost to a 14 year old German kid and some guy who's raising kids of his own! WCG IS a high pressure situation, wether you aknowledge it or not. Nony was a monster. He's got way more of a chance than "..blahblah bs..".

NonY's gonna take this like 100% of the time so I guess if I were betting or something I'd pick him

We'll see how in shape Nony is now. Hopefully we'll get to see some spectacular play from both sides.
|
I hope NonY chesses like a mofo, cause IdrA expects him to play standard... it wouldn´t make sense to play IdrA straight up,. the guys practices that like 12 hours a day.
|
I think Idra will take it 3-0. Pvt was always Nony's weakest mu. Hoping for some good games and a good series thought, maybe Nony will prove me wrong. I can't see any foreigner beating Idra in a bo5 these days though.

thx There is no cap for viewers, the more the better. The stream will be a direct, VLC/WMP playable one, not LiveStream.

Why not? because u can watch a stream with 400kbps of download but direct stream takes more than that many ppl like me have bad internet speed If you can watch livestream, you'll be able to watch the TL stream I'm fairly sure. TL streams are really lighteight for the quality they bring. Although we are using new software this season, which might change things, I think things should be okay.
There is a possibility that we will have a livestream relay for the event though.

this is gonna be great!
get him idra!
|
As a fellow Terran/Protoss-disliker, I am in support of Idra's victory.
|
So is his name pronounced "Noh-ny" or "Nuu-ny"?

well, i hope nony gets the seed, otherwise its likely he wont make it at all, given how little hes played compared to idra
|
I can't see this being anything other than a 3:0 or 3:1 rape. Nony might pull some random shit in one game that allows him to squeeze out a win... but there's no way this will be close in any straight up games.
I would be happy to eat my words, but I really don't think I will.

I know I probably will need it. Otherwise I'll have to watch a vod.
Thanks so much for sticking with a stream of your own. I can't believe everyone likes livestream so much. To me, it feels like a really slow solution that barely works. Especially since they've been pushing their new interface, I've barely been able to watch day 9 casts at all, for example.
Also thanks for casting replays. I can't believe people are willing to risk game quality to see it live. The in-game interface is also better with replays.

IdrA will win bcause NonY is too rusty in my opinion. I suppose he has been polishing his skills in the mean time - but even so. Nony hasn't had the stress of the ladder put on him. IdrA has and he came out on top easily. Plus, IdrA continues to be influenced by Korean-level StarCraft.

what i meant was that neither idra or nony "invented" their usernames.

Rofl, Idra lost to a 14 year old German kid and some guy who's raising kids of his own! WCG IS a high pressure situation, wether you aknowledge it or not. Nony was a monster. He's got way more of a chance than "..blahblah bs..". Not coming back from a year of complete inactivity, with his style? Nope.

If Nony wanted English-speakers to pronounce his nickname Noony, he should have used the nickname Noony.
|
Though some people think IdrA will simply demolish NonY I think we should get some good games out of this series. Of course the odds are in IdrA's favor, 10+ hours a day vs (not really sure but alot less lol) Though of course imho IdrA has this easily. I think NonY might be able to take a game or two...
At least I'm hoping for it :D
No matter what happens, when two titans as legendary as these crash into each other, you know its gonna be a good day.
|
this gonna be good :D goo idra.. 3-1
|
If Nony uses his old style pvt he will get smashed so bad if he tries "normal" builds he will lose badly 3-0 or 3-1 maybe lol

Nope i predict NonY will win. After all he plays protoss. Plus hes mother fucking NonY. He will 10/15 gate at least a few wins off Idra.

Oh you are streaming this <3 I guess Idra should win it, but i guess he will have to fight for it.

Im partial to protoss so my pick is NONY in epic game 5

Maybe it's just me, but I spy Nony on iCCup. And he's got a good number of games, with one account in particular having a lot of PvT and TvP.
|
I guess there will be a LiveStream relay of the event, but any of you guys know how to watch the official broadcast on the ps3 web browser? I want to relax at the couch while watching the event.

Can't wait to see this, hope casters will make this epic event even more epic!

Good always prevails over evil. So Nony will win.

Lol I love the deadpan responses from greg. Such a smart-ass ^^. And great the still keeping in character trash-talking. Both players are highly amusing, awesome games await 
|
Prediction: Idra 3-0's Nony, Nony is so embarrassed he goes through an epic training montage with an old Korean man and comes back to eventually beat Idra with the Royal Stove in the final game of the grand finals. Idra rages so hard his face explodes and some unfortunate CJ B teamer has to clean white blood off one of the house's monitors.

I am eager to see Nony back in action, as well as Idra's TvP. I know how good Idra's TvZ is, but I haven't seen his TvP, seemingly all the games I have heard about involving Idra [Koll, Ret etc.] are against Zergs.

Neither player will be eliminated by this result anyway.

There's no way Idra could lose this. Maybe if it was best of 3, but in a best of 5, I don't think so.
|
I'm hoping there will be no delays in stream start.
that's the only thing that matters

Hopefully NonY can put up a fight vs Idra.

I only hope that its a good match... Nony might be a little out of practise... but I have faith he can still tear it up with the best.

idra 3-0 for obvious reasons, but like been said before, everyone watching for the potential 'lulz' if idra loses a game, expect some newly made meme comments.

they said they are using a new codec (last year that was the biggest problem) and they have the experience. also, R1CH is a beast.

im sorry if this has been asked and explained already, but how come the timer at the top of the tl site says its still 7 hours until the broadcast yet the calendar says it should start at 23:00 Korean time and its now 21:00 Korean time? :o maybe im just being very simple and missing something ;<
|
The games at 23:00 Korean are the Q3 rounds, Nony vs Idra is another thing entirely.
|
ah ok.. thanks for clearing up  edit: actually i feel like an idiot right now, way to not check the calendar details or the schedule of 10th day~
|
Then it should have been advertised as starting on sunday? TL normally runs on korean time..
But hey, minor detail.

I'm so pumped.

no picture for me .. only sound

hmm im guessing its not starting exactly yet
i'm not seeing nething on the tl stream
oh wait there is music

I'm hearing bad-taste music and I see the TSL-logo. So yeah, it's about to start soon! =)
Excited!

I am surprised to see the quality and the lag-free in the stream.

work good with gom player

Holy crap! CJ lets IdrA practice with the B team non-stop.

If you have problems viewing the stream with WMP just download VLC Player (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) it works 100%. GLGL

also works with gom player

Thanks, that works for me.
For those still having trouble, Open VLC, click Media and select Streaming, then Network.
Select MMS and then paste this link into the box:

and select Stream. Atleast that's how I got it to work.

artosis is in korea, chill is in canada, no wonder they're lagging at least a little.

Klazart once said (not that he is an authority on this or anything but) "I think a player an lose their form, but they can never lose their class."
That meaning that NonY may have been out of form, but he could have regained that pretty quickly. He will never lose his class however, that same class that made him so good before.
But IdrA maybe one a whole 'nother level for a foreigner.

Mine has like micro slowdowns/speedups. Not terrible though.

Tyler going to bring this home now. I'm sure Idra is nerdraging like mad like now.
|
god those storms... god. so awesome. <3 nony.
|
"NoNy figured there was only about a 5% chance of winning this game, he took that 5%, loaded it with high templars and took the game." - Artosis
|
Man, I have a hard-on for Nony now.
|
"ofc HTs are invincible units, so Nony doesn't deserve a 'gg' "
|
That was awesome. TSL not failing to amaze me from the very start

|
|
|
Nony has really great potential, too bad he quit korea.
|
"You are very good at putting templars into dropships. A very useful talent toi have."

Little disturbed about Artosis' supposed wiggling and jiggling.
|
|
lol it's 5 AM here too... and I'm drinking Mountain Dew!

Gas steal. Oh god i love this.

Useful talent toi have 
I really like Nony's play, I was really worried after the first game that Nony would just be outplayed, but he is certainly looking very comfortable.
|
I think IdrA will be able to stop this if that scan goes right :D
|
|
Why did Nony build 2 stargates simultaneously instead of building one, and the another with a fleet beacon?

since fanta is no beer but i would also not count it as juice. one of those sick sugar water with some flavor and color us used to love so much.
|
omfg carrier goes down
IdrA is amazing with that fucking timing
so so good

Not a good talent toi have. Carriers.
|
NonY had a good build, but needed to hide the stargates...
|
1) engage terran near bridges and cliffs around your nat 2) engage terran in the wide open middle
NonY chooses 2, and loses the game.
|
ohh, i thought nony might not have gg'd. i like both these guys lol. hard to know who to cheer for.. idra losing causes fun drama though lol
|
Yep, obviously, every toss loves to attack terran using carriers on open ground, with turrets
|
its really lol that their picture of neo tornado is actually the absolute oldest and beta ver picture
|
It was unfortunate that Nony lost two carriers quite carelessly. This game would have looked much better for him if he didn't
|
|
lawl nice obs version of the map
|
got damn look at that probe SKATING!

manner pylons are cool, but he probably wanted that gas steal again. I think that idra's mindset is fine now though, so it wouldn't have as much of an effect anyway
|
I don't know about Idra's mindset, but I wonder if he's exhausted. We share the same time zone and I feel like I'm about to pass out >,<
|
rock'n'roll-rvr ) go Nony!!
|
OMG, this game is so hilarious!

casters are lagging in comparison to the game

pung pung mode
who needs siege?
haha artosis has so many good quotes
|
3-1 artosis was right with his prediction, it is nice to see that NonY is still at the top foreigner level.
|
|
SCV's were the winners of this set..the surround on the goons during the bulldog..and during the attack on idras 3rd...
|
No arbiters in 4 games in pvt. WTF!!

Nony thought that the gas would be better spent on upgrades and ht. I think that's his overall thought process anyway - He also may think that they are particularity bad on tornado

robbed by scv transfer.

Well played by NonY
I'm glad NonY is showing his return to form, but IdrA still needs to win :D

Spoilers obv.

I carefully checked through the other thread with replays but couldn't find idra vs nony. Are the games only going to be out in vod only?
|
|
Tob ad for that lucky SCV transfer in game 4... But well, the overall better player won.
