I'm melting... I can't stop watching :_:

please... one gif...?

 

[Deadman]

MC and stephano just had a pretty epic base race. Mc ended up trying to kill stephanos army as it was killing his last buildings but stephano won.

Mkp won 3-2 in the final against dimaga.. 3 of the games were 6 pool vs command centre first. Mkp won 2 of them.

I don't really understand why they picked up Eve, seems kind of insulting to people who actually play the game and don't have teams

 

[HolyCheck]

thanks for sharing that Mairu, that's some good news.

Eve has only ever played 1 televised match, was clearly outclassed and cried. She isn't worth a salary.

I thought NaDa went to do 2 years of military service. How could he be back?

 

[Zzoram]

GSL Blizzard Cup 2012 starting right now

MVP vs DRG Bo3 first

If MVP wins this event, he will get his G5L trophy.

 

[Pancakes]

Nada's back!??!?!

Probably just a mascot, coach, or some other non-player role.

 

[Deadly]

Coach and scout apparently. Still awesome.

 

[Zzoram]

MVP vs DRG game 1 was pretty good mech play

 

[Zzoram]

MVP vs DRG game 2 was great too

Man, GSL Blizzard Cup has such high quality play, and there are going to be 10 Bo3s tonight.

I would think you were being sarcastic if I wasn't also watching.

 

[HolyCheck]

Haha I'm on the bus home so not watching... And I did think it was sarcasm!

 

[Aaron]

That was a sick series. All three games were great, but this free stream is hurting my eyes.

 

[Zzoram]

Everyone in the GSL Blizzard Cup 2012 is so good and having 2 groups of 5 (first group now) where they round robin Bo3 is going to produce so many high level games.

MVP didn't use any Ravens sadly. DRG busted out a sneaky Nydus Roach push in game 2 and used his queens to plant like 20 creep tumors at MVP's 3rd so he couldn't get his 3rd gas for so long and couldn't properly mech.

 

[Aaron]

I was just thinking how odd it was MVP didn't use ravens since he nearly got them nerfed in the past.

 

[Zzoram]

Every Terran nerf so far has been the result of MVP. MVP is the only Terran in the 2012 GSL Blizzard Cup, even with a horrible wrist/neck problem, after a year of Terran being in the dumps.

MVP is the best Terran ever.

His decisions and reactions to others builds are just amazing.

 

[Zzoram]

I wonder if every series is going to be a close 2-1 like the first two. Everyone in this is so good.

 

[Zzoram]

My head knows MVP isn't going to advance but my heart wants him to get that G5L trophy before HotS comes out.

 

[Aaron]

Immortals are pretty good.

 

[Zzoram]

There goes MVP

The best he can hope for is tiebreakers

 

[Chris R]

Free stream is so terrible Is there anything better (twitch or whatever) ?

 

[Zzoram]

Free stream is so terrible Is there anything better (twitch or whatever) ?

Nope. Free stream is pretty terrible but I can still watch it. You can see everything well enough except maybe the food count but the casters will occasionally say who's ahead there so it's not so bad.

 

[Chris R]

Needed to fill the toilet nice win by DRG

 

[Aaron]

Poor protoss. There's no terran left for them to beat.

 

[Zzoram]

I really hate the lack of Terran in the second half of 2012 events.

 

[Mairu]

its ok we only have like 3 more months of this shit

 

[Aaron]

Someone needs to call the world wildlife fund on Blizzard. They've made terran an endangered species.

Especially awful since Terran is the most fun race to watch and involves the most micro.

 

[TheThunder]

The only Terran in the tournament is already out.

Nothing but ZvPs, ZvZs and PvPs, sounds like the best tournament ever...

Sounds like the last half of 2012.

Whats new?

I don't mind any match up really except fo ZvZ. ZvZ is really hard to watch for me.

 

[Aaron]

pvp is like watching paint dry in slow motion.

 

[Cels]

Can someone explain the significance of a warning? Happened a few times tonight.

[Yoshichan]

dead

 

[Aaron]

He's a terran so it's no surprise. We'll be lucky if there are any left by March.

 

[Deadman]

Hmm I wonder why he retired

Oh yeah, that.

Wow.......

 

[Complistic]

A few weeks ago did I read that people were getting beta access for HOTS when they ordered the expansion from amazon? Are they still doing that and can I get a link?

Starcraft 2

Mike Morhaime is currently Bronze and trying hard for Silver.
SC2 has a lot of value for the price, especially compared to some of the "free to play" games.
There is a lot of potential for SC2 growth in China as more and more people are able to afford broadband and gaming.
The feedback from players in China on the Mists of Pandaria expansion has been great.
One of the pleasant surprises at BWC is how well the non-Koreans did in competition.
Blizzard is going to take more of a leadership role in organizing and scheduling the tournaments. Right now there is so much going on that it is hard to follow and there is no clear story like you find in other sports.
It would be nice if everyone offered a reasonable quality stream of tournaments for free, as it would lower the barrier for people that are curious about SC2 but not willing to pay yet.
When asked about adding things like premium portraits, he said that the current model is viable and the current focus is on making a great expansion.

I'm pretty sure that ANYONE can make Silver within a week if someone who knows how to play just tells them what to do. Bronze players don't even use the keyboard.

Convinced the Chinese version of SC2 has the best unit voices/quotes.
