Send out MC for PvP?

Makes sense.

This is the IM coach. There is a reason they never win GSTL anymore with as many championships under the team lol.

IM continues their poor luck in team league.

Whats luck got to do with it?

 

[bbyybb]

Total all kill for Parting, I didn't think it end up being this one sided.

 

[Aaron]

I think GSL has switched to LOL. I see Tasteless casting.

 

[Vaporak]

I didn't realize that there were still more Terrans in Code S than the other races.

 

[Mairu]

can't sleep so i've got the stream on :|

 

[AdventureRacing]

Well despite all the whinging, terrans were still the best race last season in GSL (even though zerg ended up winning).

 

[jersoc]

no nestea is crazy. dude got his award and ditched

 

[Aaron]

Tasteless seems more on his game than his usual tonight. Guess the horrors of casting LOL convinced him to make that extra effort.

 

[Striek]

Missed first game, but that game...lol.

Lesson learned: if you're going CC first don't slack on the scouting.

I feel like that hidden pylon spot is semi-common too.

 

[Vaporak]

I feel like that hidden pylon spot is semi-common too.

Terrans are just so used to being the aggressors in the matchup and not being attacked that they just get lazy sometimes.

 

[Striek]

Embarassing mistake from Parting, haha. Polt ahead now.

 

[Vaporak]

DT builds suck, don't try and be sneaky and use them!

 

[Striek]

Psst Polt gg

 

[Sumidor]

Nice hold/attack/kill by Parting.

Damn, Tastosis looking stylish with the suits.

PvP means Break time.

 

[Aaron]

PvP? Come on. I'm trying to not fall asleep at work here.

 

[Vaporak]

PvP means Break time.

Yup, I'll be back in a bit. Maybe it's time to sleep now that the mirror matches have started.

If you guys really didn't watch this match, you just missed an amazing hold by Parting against Finale. Probably the best Stalker micro I've seen in a long, long time.

 

[Striek]

Pretty good first PvP tho ;;

Finale should've had it, some sloppy mistakes.

All Finale had to do was shift-queue a zealot onto a bunch of probes instead of having them all chase the stalkers though. Hell at one point he had 3 zealots chasing one stalker when he could've killed the probes chasing his own stalker xD

 

[bbyybb]

That was a very good PvP game. Parting held that attack but it was a nice back and forth micro affair. Yeah sure Finale made some mistakes but it was entertaining.

 

[Striek]

Finale -.- Make archons, let zealots wash against forcefields regardless. Good series though.

Both probes and Stalkers move quite a bit faster than Zealots. Even with a Zealot shift queued, I don't think he would have ever caught up to the probes without losing his Stalker as it was already almost dead.

Yeah some strange micro/unit placement for Finale.

Fun PvP series though.

Nah I meant shift-queue a zealot into the mineral line and disrupt all mining, its pretty standard. You can't really do much about it whilst still kiting zealots chasing your stalker(s).

The probes on his stalker, yeah not much use when its almost dead but he could have killed them earlier rather than chase the one stalker.

 

[Wunder]

Yay TvT. Hoping for a polt win

 

[Tacitus_]

Damn Taeja, making Polt glance back for a second and he slices up Polts army.
E: and in a split second it all changes again. <3 TvT

 

[Majine]

TvT compared to the other mirror matchups, is like fine wine. Need to be enjoyed slowly.

 

[Striek]

Sweet game. Go Polt.

 

[Tacitus_]

Welp. Taeja

 

[Striek]

Haha at rushing unsupported seiged tanks with hellions like they are marines. Hellions just melted and did diddly.

 

[Wunder]

HELLLLLLLSYEAH

 

[bbyybb]

Well didn't think that Taeja would be out of Code S this easily.

Straight to the bottom of Code A is big drop from Code S after last seasons R4.

Hopefully Polt plays better than Taeja did against Finale.

 

[Majine]

Finale should've blocked his ramp off before he went in with the blink attack. Wouldn't have been an all-in.

 

[Aaron]

Thought Polt had no chance. Glad to see I was wrong.

 

[bbyybb]

Well done to Polt.

 

[Striek]

Polt :3

Good games tonight.

 

[Deadman]

They are having the semi's and finals @ IPL in Vegas, so have to get a whole GSL Code S season finished in 3 weeks.

It's
4 groups of code S this week (monday to thursday)
4 groups of code S next week (monday to thursday)
4 straight days of the round of 16 (monday to thursday)
2 days of Quarter finals (wednesday and thursday)
week off to travel to IPL @ Vegas and prep
Saturday is Semi finals
Sunday Finals

So a full season in 5 weeks or something..

 

[Vaporak]

Interesting, GOM has a twitched/owned3d stream up instead of their usual. I guess Sandy took out some infrastructure for them or something.

 

[Aaron]

Sandy clearly a LOL fan.

 

[profit]

Dat quality on Twitch!

 

[Tacitus_]

Dat smoothness on Twitch. I could get used to this.

 

[jersoc]

omg i can see numbers now

 

[Holden]

oh shit its on twitch, i might watch it for once

 

[bbyybb]

I like that they offer two alternative sources, in my case I prefer the Twitch stream.

I generally don't get a smooth stream when watching Owg3D with my ISP.
