Polt and viOLet playing Game 5 of a Bo5 to decide who moves on to the Twitch Ender's Game on Blu-ray Tournament semifinals!

Bracket: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Twitch_Ender's_Game_on_Blu-ray_Tournament#Playoffs

Stream: http://www.twitch.tv/wellplayedsc2

Feels so nostalgic watching these two duke it out again. :D

And Polt is out lol

Looking at the other matches, I don't really expect Illusion to beat Minigun, I saw some of the games Minigun played in this tourney and he seems legit. Not sure about the other 2, don't care about these players. I do want Suppy to lose, he had such a shitty gg timing yesterday.

Incredible.

I wish people could make this kind of shit up but DK just makes it too easy.

Yeah, Illusion and Minigun play together on the ladder all the time and Illu constantly get's REKT by him because #protoss so my body is ready for another no Terran, 75% Protoss semifinals.
 

Yoshichan

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Zero passion left for this game, unfortunately. That PRO-toss video didn't leave me laughing or anything at all. Just sighing and X'ing the tab before even finishing the video. Not even Carbot videos are entertaining anymore.

Poor qxc, he has to beat desrow and eventually Dear to even have a shot at qualifying. He is my favourite foreign terran, but he just can't seem to make it through these qualifiers.

edit: nvm, the bracket got changed, he has to beat Hero if he beats desrow, he is still pretty fucked either way lol

Well it's gonna be Solar vs Innovation, at least it's not TvT so Innovation should be fine. Of course Solar can just end up recking him.

MMA 2-0'd by ParanOid... that's just pathetic.

INnoVation 2-1'd by Solar... jjakji and Polt currently in a match.....

Only a single Terran hope left in the quarterfinals... ;_;

Let the Zerg get up 5 bases with almost no trouble and didn't lineup timing attacks with his upgrades.

Mutaballs and Baneling 1-A moves EZPZ

Yeah, it just felt like Innovation could have been more aggressive, done more economic damage, but he did nothing and let the Zerg build up safely.

Also Bly just 2-0ed Dear lol, Dear really needs to practice more or do something, he can't live off his 2013 legacy forever.

jjakji takes out StarDust! Nice! :D

I liked that early Marine & 1 Medivac push in the early game. Gives some nice flexibility with aggression.

Now he'll probably face HerO or GuMiho in the semifinals... and my guess is HyuN for the final.

GuMiho with the sickest cheeses against HerO: http://www.twitch.tv/basetradetv

LOL

Edit: Good lord, HerO got thoroughly REKT by GuMiho. :O

I'll have to watch that match after the vod goes up.


Probably a good idea!

I've gotten so good with mech TvP that it doesn't even feel weak against them anymore (bio feels so much worse). Getting to T3 Lategame has really helped improve my control with Ghost-Raven-Battlecruiser, and the new energy buff is helping me a lot.

jjakji is playing some gorgeous TvZ mech right now.

I recommend VODs of these first two games to all of my Terran brethren!

LET'S GO JJAKJI BRING HOME THE 3-0!!

Can't get enough of dat sutter step /kreygasm

Now he's meching vs Protoss. :D

Wow jjakji winning vs Dear impresses me the most. GG WP to him. A bright spot in the troubled times for Terran. Did he use Ghosts in his TvP to great effect?

I think I remember Ghosts but he didn't try to rush them out or anything I don't think. You know jjakji, he loves using early aggression and drop tactics.

He plays every match up in such a smart way. I would love to see him rise to Code S champion level again.

The IEM European qualifiers are happening right now, and I'm surprised at the lack of Koreans. I feel like they either don't know about the no region restriction or a lot of them are too busy preparing for Proleague.

It's really just a lag thing. They still need to play on the EU server I think.

Of course, looking at the bracket, that doesn't matter if you are protoss. :D
