Oh man, just took a game back from the depths of despair. PvP, I screwed up on my gateway and his probe blocked it just as I was putting it down, didnt notice and didnt get it started until 16 food and about 2.5 minutes in, which meant my tech was behind a bit. I expanded early since I had some extra money and he went for a warp prism/DT drop. Spotted the warp prism at the Xel Naga Tower but only had enough money for 1 stalker and all my sentries were outside the base, so his DTs made an absolute mess of my main. Luckily I had the expo, eventually bought myself enough time to stabilize in my main and cannon up. Then teched to HTs and completely stomped him, he was hoping his 1 base would crush me (and it very nearly did!), and his expo was really late so he just didnt have the stuff to hold me

Great game, got very hairy when I realized I could do absolutely nothing about the DTs since my cannons were too close to my minerals and nowhere near my production. He just made very poor choices and was sloppy on his control which gave me enough time and opportunity to kill the DTs eventually. Also, I dont know if he ever scouted my expo, but I'm guessing he didnt.

mr chae posted to announce the gomtv blizzard cup & give some insight about gsl 2012
Hello, I am Mr. Chae from GOMTV.

It’s been little over a year since the launch of StarCraft II. The GSL, which has been receiving a lot of love and support from all of you, has also celebrated its first anniversary a short while ago.

I believe that this year has been a special year for e-sports.
A lot of things that were not accomplished in SC/BW were achieved in the course of just one year.

Players from all around the world competing each other, leading international tournaments working together with exchange programs, foreign players coming to Korea for training and Korean players joining foreign teams - all of these are remarkable developments that have not occurred to this extent in the past 10 years of e-sports history.

Alongside GSL, there have been many major tournaments out there entertaining fans worldwide.
We at GSL are always hoping to work together with other foreign tournaments and believe we have accomplished a lot in that regard this year.

When we first introduced the 2011 GSL Tour we have mentioned the Blizzard CUP.
The Blizzard CUP is a tournament in which we plan to look back at and conclude the year 2011 and determine the best of best. Additionally, other events like Best Coach Award, Fan Favorite Player Award, Best Player of their respective Race Award etc. are planned.

We are currently in the last stages of deciding on and tweaking the format and schedule of the 2012 GSL Tour.

The concepts for GSL 2012 are:
1. More chances
2. Prove yourself
3. Are you qualified to stay in Code S?

We hope everyone will enjoy the remainder of the 2011 GSL Tour and is looking forward to what we have in store for 2012.

The outline of Blizzard CUP is as follows:

Players: Best 10 of 2011

Has there been a shot of the crowd? Sounds like no one is there lol. I guess that's to be expected, as it's early on a Thursday. It should fill up later today, and get super full over the weekend

IPL streaming at 60fps (I think?) is throwing me off. Looks so smooth.

So that's what it is? The stream was looking so much better than usual, but I couldn't tell exactly why.
