Haven't watched sc2 in ages and was surprised not seeing him on that list at all.

Really hope it goes to the 5th game.

Want to see more than Gateway vs Roach

 

[demosthenes]

Ugh, stop going into first person view please! I feel like it's the worse view every single time they shift to it.

 

[Syf]

I like it but they pick some bad times to do it lol

 

[demosthenes]

ZANSTERRRRRRRRR

GAME 5 here we go!

 

[leatherhat]

Overslept, but now I'm here for starcraft.

 

[SporeCrawler]

what... why so little koreans?

 

[demosthenes]

what... why so little koreans?

Changes to the rules this year. Made it harder for Koreans to play over seas. You had to have a Visa to play in another country and you had to live in that country as well.

WCS ~ North America & Europe
GSL & SSL ~ Korea

 

[Syf]

yeah region lock for WCS, they'll all be at BlizzCon though.

Also I'm now rooting for ForGG to roll over both of these protosses.

I was rooting for him since the beginning. I love a mech player.

 

[demosthenes]

Rooting for ForGG just so we don't have PvP final, sorry Poland. It would be awesome to see Mana go all the way just for the crowd.

 

[Nightmare452]

I'm rooting for Mana against Forgg if only cause I would like a non Korean finals for once (or first time ever). But do not want a PvP finals, since I am a Terran player. I'm so conflicted...

 

[phoenixyz]

PvP final would be awesome. Best mirror matchup by far. Two foreigners in the finals would be a nice bonus.

 

[demosthenes]

This first game. AWESOME

Think you're in the minority here.

 

[phoenixyz]

Great game.

It's PvP, then ZvZ, then TvT, amirite?

 

[Syf]

TvT is my favorite. PvP can be entertaining sometimes. ZvZ is almost always terrible.

 

[leatherhat]

TvT is my favorite. PvP can be entertaining sometimes. ZvZ is almost always terrible.

Nothing makes me happier than a super late ZvZ that sees Ultras and Broods come out, but that's like less than fiver percent of them. The best and most consistent is TvT.

Yeah that's great but usually it's just roach wars all game long lol

 

[demosthenes]

Game 3, god damn.

I can only hope the finals is this good.

edit: I'm SO glad that ForGG is repairing his medivacs. I hate it when pros don't do this. See a ton of near full energy medivacs dying b/c they were never repaired.

 

[Draft]

Mana is playing like a man possessed.

 

[demosthenes]

ForGG refuses to build a 3rd base.

 

[Aaron]

Mana's colossi are dancing spiders. 4GG needs to step up.

 

[Syf]

wtf is this game

 

[calder]

They should both take a draw here

yeah I know. still too little koreans.

 

[demosthenes]

They should both take a draw here

And they do, WOW.

Crazy game.

yeah I know. still too little koreans.

It's not easy to move and get a Visa. Also Jaedong & Violet were knocked out before the Ro8.

 

[Syf]

wow, draw

 

[Nightmare452]

A draw. Wow. Such an epic match, back and forth both players.

 

[leatherhat]

You should give ForGG a chance to suicide on the assimilator.

 

[demosthenes]

You should give ForGG a chance to suicide on the assimilator.

Actually yea. He had full map vision. A little weird that this wasn't thought of.

 

[calder]

You should give ForGG a chance to suicide on the assimilator.

Might work, but while he knows Mana doesn't have enough for a nexus or stargate or anything he doesn't know he didn't have enough for almost anything. I think the draw makes the most sense for him too.

 

[calder]

I only started watching, did they explain the baguette in ForGG's booth? Is just really into mid match carbo loading or was he giving a shout out to the anniversary of the baguette?

 

[calder]

Wow, fantastic games.

 

[phoenixyz]

So epic.

Lilbow got it when he won. He left it for ForGG as a token of good luck as they are teammates.

 

[demosthenes]

PVP final makes me sad but great games.

 

[Syf]

cinematic time!

 

[Aaron]

Wow. I might actually watch a pvp finals. Both players are playing like madmen.

 

[demosthenes]

cinematic time!

LOTV TIME

 

[TheTrain]

cinematic time!

Breathing intensifies!

hasn't played yet I don't think. lost a ton of viewers when it died though lol

or maybe we did miss? idk

[FluxWaveZ]

Nope, hasn't been shown. A lot of history talk about StarCraft in general.

As a Protoss player why have you not been enjoying the game? Do you mean just from the campaign?
