I finally got a new computer and I'm gonna start streaming.
I just got the game 2 days ago, and I'm at 800 diamond I think. Still setting up my new computer, but Ill be able to keep laddering very soon.
Still figuring out counters to units, and builds, so take a ride with me while I figure out the game.
I will be open to suggestions in chat, do games and builds by request, I will be playing music sometimes and talking through mics some other times. Both is an option already.
I'm mainly playing protoss right now, but I do play the other races on occasion, to get a sense of times. I also might be switching my main race.
Watch my stream, enjoy, and don't be afraid to give me comments and tips!
I know that I should stay away from this but it is going to get brought up no matter what so I might as well ask, Chill vs. Combat-EX SC2 showmatch with a non PC Day9 to commentate?

Exactly my first thoughts.

Please keep in mind that you don't need to be skilled to be featured. Its just as much about being entertaining, sort of like orb.

Combat-Ex..........
Gona go smack 'em around again? Maybe he is actually super gosu in SC2 and he's going to amaze us all. I'll give him another chance before calling for blood, but I get the feeling that not much has changed...
as much as i would love a sc2 rendition of the classic, I have doubts about chills ability to beat an 800 diamond, you are gold/plat, amirite? I thought i saw/heard you talking about it to dj wheat or someone on a stream.
I finally got a new country and I'm gonna start declaring war on other countries.
I just got the country 2 days ago, and I'm at 800 people I think. Still setting up my new country, but Ill be able to keep wasting money very soon.
Still figuring out how to screw things up, and build nukes, so take a ride with me while I fight terrorism.
I will be open to your votes in the next election, dish out money by request, I will be reading books upside down sometimes and flaunting my proper grammar through mics some other times. Both is an option already.
I'm mainly playing dumb right now, but I do play the other supporters and party members on occasion, to get a sense of times. I also might be switching my main party.
Watch my campaign ads, enjoy, and don't be afraid to give me your votes and tips!
on a serious note: nothing against combat x personally, just showing people why a few years changes nothing.

nobody who played iccup seriously can possibly be anything but mid-high diamond given they put any significant effort into laddering.

Simple. Blizzards terrible division layout.
The slower you get to diamond the newer the division = you can get #1 easier, can't catch up to people with 1200~ points in the first X amount of divisions.
On a serious note, I think mr. Combat ex should have his own little icon:p

LOL ladder != skill for Chill, since I don't think he plays 1v1 much
Its okay, since the double observatory build cannot be carried on to sc2 i believe Combat-Ex will revolutionize the way P is played and make the double dark shrine build or a different spark of brilliance

let him build some hype before anything happens. Feature the guy, let him get more experience with ladder, let him grow, prosper and all the things needed for a show will eventually fall into place.
Yes he is riding yesterdays hype still fresh in peoples minds but that was yesterdays hype. He needs to imo build it up again.
Wait you just got the game 2 days ago but you're streaming already =O WTF 800 points? Damn... nice =O Are videos going on youtube? Hope they are, keep it up!
And in a few decades i will tell my grandchildren: "You know that i missed the first coming of Combat-Ex and that made me sad. But i was there for the second one and it was epic. So sit down and let me tell you this story of epic drama, childishness and failure."

You know that's not going to happen, especially not on TL given the history (well the people who know about it anyway). The grudge match doesn't feel that long ago, it's still fresh in my mind. For those who know the name, it will always bring back past drama (what's life without a little drama right? )

Nah, it was like that scene from Inception where the room starts tilting. Instead of Joseph Gordon lewitt flying across the hallway, it was actually Chill leaping from wall to wall to get to the end of the hallway where TL waited on a computer...

Basically, he makes fpvods of him playing the basics of most strategies poorly against D- people in attempts to teach them builds and what to do. His audio commentary is often wrong and poor, but it's ok, he's a B level player after playing only D rank people up to B. He also begged people to leave the game even after he lost in order for him to maintain a fake win percentage, and he had the ego to ask for donations even though his videos weren't as good as he thought they were.
Then chill and combat-ex had a live casted grudge match, chill won, day[9] made fun of both of them, and bear semen and the double observervatory into 12? gateway build became famous.

On August 26 2010 11:29 iokke wrote: Can anyone write a short version of what happened for those of us who missed it? all the replies got me very curious about his past
Short version: Combat-ex abused on iCCup ladder by asking for/getting free wins. He also made many youtube videos for teaching low level players how to improve. Somehow he got into a Bo5 challenge with Chill to prove wether he was any good or not and lost 1-3 to Chill. Just searching combat-ex should give you a bunch of results that you can piece together to get the story.
Personally, I think Combat deserves a second chance to put his bad history behind him and become a clean player in SC2. Until there's any evidence of him reverting to his old ways I think the community needs to give him a bit more respect instead of just derailing his stream thread and insulting him.
eh and I'm pretty sure this is the real combat, just check his posts lol
:D

Well, the fact that he wasn't permabanned is an indication of #1, but imo, he probably kinda hoped for the ensuing flames and drama lol.

Combat-EX has NO CHANCE because Blizzard took the IMBA Observatory OUT of SC2!!!!! =)
I want him to be featured. I'm tired of the 15x terran streamers. There is basically only 1 featured zerg streamer(sen) want some toss in there. Ill definitely be tuning in.
This guy was just on Battle.net useast getting served by c- guys and claiming to be in the B/B+ level... I don;t know how sc2 works but if he claims to be 800 diamond, he might get destroyed by the 400 platinum guys (if that works out the same as iccup any)
I got a few replays if anyone is interested... and yes its sc1 replays not bw.

I don't think a rematch of the most mother fucking epic series to ever grace starcraft would be possible without the entire community collapsing under the awesomeness.

I think we should lay off this guy a bit, we went a little too far imo. He was pretty young when he started streaming. As someone who is amused and entertained by drama Combat-Ex's stream is sure to be time well spent.
As for the controversy? well yeh he took free wins on ICCUP not a big deal imo. Dimaga took free wins during the TSL and no-one seems to care about that anymore. Plus he's not THAT bad. Judging by TL recently he's better than the vast majority of us. People seem to think HD and Husky are good commentators well after watching his stream I'm certain Combat-Ex could easily dispatch both of them.
addicted like no tmrw to sc2 and i wanna get gosu :D
Has our friendly neighborhood Combat-EX matured beyond calling himself gosu? Wonders never cease. Have a good time streaming, doubt I'll watch much or regularly, but as long as someone's entertained.

He better not, plus why all the people saying Combat-EX should be featured:
1) He says hes only had it 2 days and is 800 diamond (so he says anyone found his profile on bnet?) 2) He says he still doesnt know unit counters?
Think about what those two together mean... allins all the time and you want this featured? Noty
You must also factor in the level of entertainment he can provide.. He'll probably trashtalk like no tomorrow, and then it is Combat-EX which gotta count for something as well.

There's a good reason 10-20 or so reputable top foreigners cheated in the TSL2, try to figure it out.

Man Combat, it's been a while! Unfortunately I don't think your standard double observatory into 12 gateway build will transfer perfectly to SC2, but I have no doubts you'll be at the forefront of SC2 strategy in no time.

He played plenty games in the beta. He has quite a few fpvods of himself on his youtube account Wasif1112. It's not like he's one of the few talented players who can just transition from rts to rts and instantly succeed like people seem to think he is implying.

Why is Tyler such a BAMF... good luck today in Raleigh!
I'm gonna be streaming from 4:00pm to 2:00am almost every day. For eryone that wants to watch. At around 1100~ atm, plan to get to 1400~ by end of summer.

Yeah, wtf.. it's strange. And wasn't he banned after all the shit with abusing and so on? The worst part is that he never actually leaves. How many times did he say he was quitting while asking for "severance" from his viewers? LOL.. pathetic.
Meh he's playing 12+ hours per day and no one's come forth with any issues of him cheating. I think we may have a new, legit Combat-EX who actually wants to be good instead of famous.

I love how people talk down on 4gate and never learn to beat it. When somebody 4gates me I smile knowing I have an easy victory ahead of me because I know several ways to defeat it. It's not quite an all-in but when it fails it leaves Protoss way behind.

This guy is a complete jerk and seems to enjoy all the hate he receives from the community. I remember watching a replay of him playing Maker and being completely shocked that they appeared to be on good terms (from the in game chat). He even gg'd after Maker wrecked him. So he is capable of behaving like a human being, it's just that most of the time he chooses not to. What a sad life he must live.
