guess huk didn't learn his lesson at MLG :lol

 

[Won]

"lol"

:lol

 

[Hazaro]

On the plus side when the game lags for 5 seconds (when it warps in) Machine has like 30 seconds for it to get to his main.

*OH HO

 

[Cerberus]

HuK, you sly motherfucker. :lol

 

[Haunted]

Huk, you magnificient bastard.


"tahts halo, don't worry" coming up!

 

[Won]

That's some serious bad decision making by Machine

 

[Haunted]

Man, I'd pay good money to see huk winning a game at GSL3 with a mothership push. :lol

 

[vicissitudes]

Awesome mothership :lol :lol

 

[Dreams-Visions]

so beautiful.

 

[Haunted]

How is machine still in this?


edit: yeah, gg as I type

 

[Keikaku]

Wow . . . :lol :lol :lol

I have the biggest grin on my face right now. He is getting better with the Mothership use, too

 

[Hazaro]

Machine handled that pretty damn well.

I agree with the spire vs hydra den decision, but the counter attacks were good.

How is machine still in this?

2 mining bases vs 1.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

"lol"

:lol

I guess that laugh was to keep from crying. :lol

HuK was brilliant today. damn. a clear and deliberate plan for each game, beginning to end.

Machine handled that pretty damn well.

no, he lost. and failed after scouting it well before it launched. he didn't handle anything today well except the scrap station game. and even then because HuK forgot to protect home.

 

[Deadman]

Do it against idra too in the super final plz.

Id definitely need a change of trousers if he did it and it worked.

 

[Hazaro]

no, he lost. and failed after scouting it well before it launched. he didn't handle anything today well.

Past the whole, making a spire first thing. :lol
The mothership was 5 seconds from completion when he scouted it.

 

[Zzoram]

Carriers would've won the game faster. He could've gotten a carrier out and in Machine's main much sooner, before the spire was up, and Carriers can kill 2 Queens super fast then snipe spire and gg.

 

[Keikaku]

The MSI/Dynaudio ad playing right now is like a Greatest Hits of the Worlds Most Stereotypical Accents.

 

[Raelson]

That commercial is so bad. :lol

 

[zoukka]

Oh machine. You wanted to give HuK a fighting chance by not building the den.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

The mothership was 5 seconds from completion when he scouted it.

no, he had just started chronobosting the nexus then. he had time to "lol", think about what he was going to do about it...then plant a spire. then the thing was only marginally aggressive for the first 30 seconds of attack. long enough for him to have gotten what? 5 or 6 mutas out?

if he had made the correct decision, he survives that push and that mothership drops much sooner. he failed, period.

Carriers would've won the game faster. He could've gotten a carrier out and in Machine's main much sooner, before the spire was up, and Carriers can kill 2 Queens super fast then snipe spire and gg.

possibly, but if he had gotten mutas up, the carriers probably would have went down and he would have been out a ton of resources. that's an even bigger risk, IMO. at least we have historical evidence that shows a mothership rush can win.

Day9's cloak of invisibility! :lol

 

[cubicle47b]

Day9's cloak of invisibility! :lol

Yeah, that was amazing.

 

[Haunted]

day9 having some greenscreen fun :lol


Can I say that I love how charming these cheap transitions and greenscreen effects are?

Shoot, could have sworn it was much later scout.

 

[Morbid Angel]

I just came home what did I miss? Where the games any good? :O

 

[Deadman]

Over 10k viewers, thats nice.

 

[vicissitudes]

<3 broodlords.

I wish they are used more and protected more. A lot of times players just get them and a-move. Protect them with roaches and transfuse the hurt ones! Oh, well, doesn't matter slush wins anyway.

 

[Slavik81]

Ouch. The game and the stream are both totally falling apart.

 

[Tacitus_]

Stream down?

 

[vicissitudes]

Stream down?

Yup, down for me

 

[Dreams-Visions]

 

[Tacitus_]

Up again!

 

[vicissitudes]

Huh restarted 3rd match...okay...

 

[vicissitudes]

Stream down again.....where are all the blizzcon haters at?

Edit: maybe it was just down for me

 

[jersoc]

servers are falling apart in that game lol

 

[Tacitus_]

Free, community made stream vs paid, massive corporation backed.

And it's still more stable.

 

[Deadman]

I stick to my earlier prediction: Huk to win, Idra to win special final.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

anyone else disappointed we don't get to see the faces of the competitors? I'd like to see what they look like.

Uh, they did show pictures of the four semifinalists a couple of times.

 

[Keikaku]

HuK's face: http://tinyurl.com/23sv9z6

oh okay. I missed it. I'd have preferred it more like the GomTV tourney.

 

[twofold]

They're playing from their homes - not at a lan somewhere. Setting up webcams and what not would be a major pain.

 

[Hazaro]

Desert Oasis should be interesting TvZ

* :lol

[Won]

Interesting indeed.

ooooooooh!

I thought this was like the GomTV tourney. explains the connection issues. I just thought their lan occasionally went on the fritz. I assumed the background cheering was a crowd of some sort. I guess it was just the rest of the production staff?

I don't think anyone has the LAN version except GOMTV (If they are even using it).

Hopefully the Canadian matchup will be more stable.
Is IdrA back in the states for MLG Dallas? Or will he be playing from Korea?

 

[Haunted]

That MSI commercial is seriously bad.


Who even asked for a good soundchip and speakers in a laptop?

GomTV use battle.net to play games. I imagine that there is very little lag, however, considering how good Korea's internet infrastructure is.

Idra is playing from the US so lag won't be a problem.

Slasher said Idra is already here in the U.S. for MLG Dallas.
