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?

10k viewers for a 10k final. How appropriate.

Kas has been carrying Empire through the tournament, but mouz will stop them and take the second Master's Cup in a row.

Individual Rankings for the players from the EG Master's Cup Team League over the whole season:

Code:
#  Name           Team          W-L

1. beastyqt    Team Empire      8-2
1. Puma        Evil Geniuses	8-2   
3. Mana        Mousesports	8-4
3. Rain        fnaticMSI	8-4
5. Kas         Team Empire	7-4
6. Morrow      Mousesports      5-0
6. Thorzain    Mousesports 	5-0

Surprising that beasty from Team Empire comes out on top. Also surprising that Idra only achieved a 3-5 record.

I'm not really, beasty is actually pretty beasty, I love watching his stream.

On a different note, How do I deal with a zerg doing mutaling as a protoss? Even with blink stalkers I feel like a zerg with decent muta control can keep going from mineral line to mineral line and wreck havok before my stalkers arrive. Dealing with muta's also makes it nigh impossible to move out without getting my economy utterly destroyed before I get close to the zerg base :/

I finished the campaign, after chipping away at it for a couple of months, I'm finally done. Well, nearly done, I have the sky platform Char mission to do, but I've done the other 25. When I last posted about it, the reaction was pretty middling about the campaign, but I was blown away. I didn't like every mission, but it's scope and variety was incredible. I was very surprised how much I cared about the story and characters, I can't wait for HotS.

Tomorrow I'll do my last mission and start on the challenges, once I'm done with UC3 I'll go back and do some AI games, then start my multiplayer games, I'm not sure I'll really get into it at all, I've never been deeply interested in any competitive multiplayer game, but who knows, maybe this'll be the one, but regardless it was well worth the money for the campaign alone, and I'm looking forward to plenty of StarJeweled and Left2Die.

Glad you enjoyed the campaign :) I've always enjoyed it (and beaten it 6 times), although I did hate the storyline.

If you're in EU and want a StarJeweled-buddy, I'm the right guy for you!

Those deeply invested into the MP portion rarely have good things to say about the campaign. For me, it's one of the best RTS campaigns created so far. The serious, well-produced CG cutscenes don't have the campy charm of the C&C live action... action, but as far as the actual campaign gameplay and variety goes, Blizzard have really outdone themselves.

This is not just a bunch of skirmish maps or 1v1 scenarios, they've really explored what they can do within the SC2 RTS framework. Good stuff.

Yep, it most definitely shines the most when you start challenging yourself. Brutal difficulty, blue flame hellions and vikings only. Soooo good.

Oh well, we must be crazy, I guess. I regret nothing from getting every achievement on singleplayer :lol

I am indeed, sounds good, add me if you fancy it, I'm either StuCraft or StewCraft, can't remember.

My mate Dan who convinced me to play it has all but one, it's from that arcade game, I sense his hidden rage at it's difficulty.

I'll be needing your character code though! :) (put the mouse pointer on your avatar for a second, it should tell you a code)

That's perfectly fine! There's no chance I'll be playing StarJeweled tonight anyway so XD

edit: Damn, come to think of it, I don't think we've had this many good maps on ladder (my opinion, of course).

Xel'naga
Metalopolis
Sharkuas
Tal'darim
Shattered

(Deleted Abyssal, Antiga and Nerazim).

Good job Blizzard! The only changes I'd do would be change the three shitty maps above for Terminus, Crevasse and Xel'naga Fortress. I'd seriously say they'd be done with the maps until the next expansion.

Just watched the SC2 1 year anniversary video (how did I miss it back in July?)

Of course he had to show footage of Foxer when the video described "sadness" as part of the e-sport.

is he still doing that gsl show?
No clue. Doesnt do the show, probably doesnt practice as hard anymore.

Can anyone point me towards the SC2 friend notification chime? I used to have it as my phone's text message alert, until I lost all of my data in a freak flash drive lock up.

I can count a total amount of 6 "EG" or "EvilGeniuses" in that pic alone.

How many can you find?

lolololol Oh Americas

edit: I was complaining why they didn't have Foxer in that picture... then I saw him :3 Good piece of art.

edit 2: the best part is that I've bought that specific shirt he's wearing! It's taking ages to arrive though...

edit 3: yes, I'm planning on representing PRIME in Dreamhack Winter.
