Doesn't make it any easier with WCS EU also having a fantastic lineup tomorrow at 9am -_-

Stay up for GSL since WCS Euro has free VODs.

Innovation needs to take it for the Terrans over the world.

I do hope Bomber passes but it all depends on him not falling again from RO8.

 

[Vexxan]

I hope both INnoVation and Bomber advances today, can't stand the idea that we could get another ZvZ final otherwise.

 

[Mairu]

Haven't watched GSL live in forever. Excited! But I probably will fall asleep

 

[StopMakingSense]

HYPE!

 

[Crimsonlink]

Whoa its starting! GOGOGOGOGGO Innovation!


Sorry Roro but you have had your chance!

 

[Mairu]

lots of widow mines

 

[profit]

INNOVATIOOOOOOON!

 

[Crimsonlink]

HOLY CONTROL!

Innovation was ahead in supply all game too!

 

[Zen]

If Innovation keeps this up he's going to MMA all us terrans. ._.

 

[Mairu]

bogus has made a large number of bunkers.

<3

 

[Crimsonlink]

YES I am in love with Innovation's play.

Reminds me of a Taeja and MVP in their primes.

 

[AdventureRacing]

I almost feel bad for Roro, it's got to suck being a zerg against innovtion :lol.

 

[V_Arnold]

Innovation is to early HOTS what MVP was to early WOL.

 

[Svafnir]

Woah, did not expect innovation to come back in that last game.

 

[Deadman]

Hellbats are a fair and balanced unit

 

[Striek]

Hellbats are gross fair and balanced units though.

 

[DerZuhälter]

Hellbats are a fair and balanced unit

 

[V_Arnold]

Yeah, fuck. Terran really needed Widow mines AND speed-medivacs AND hellbats AND medivacs magically healing hellbats. YEAAAAH

 

[Mairu]

lol

 

[Crimsonlink]

WHOA 3-0 and Hellbats are likely to get nerfed lol.

That was pure domination by Innovation.

Bomber is up. You can do it bro!

Edit: Bomber is looking at that game and smiling.

"Suddenly Symbol gets a chill up his spine and feels kinda warm." ITS HELLBAT TIME BABY! HELLBAT BOMBS FTW!

 

[bbyybb]

Well I missed the first set to discover it was a 3-0. Worth watching the replays?

Such a difference compared to the Day 1 matches, at least the first set today.

 

[Zen]

Please innovation, stop it, you're going to get us nerfed!

I couldn't even take satisfaction in those games as they were so simultaneously high level and so one sided, makes ZvT look impossible. Sure, Innovation isn't doing what everyone else does but just better, but he's exposing what might become common balance issues in a few months time, if that.

We'll see though, though it does seems like Zs need to going back to reinventing the wheel against the very best T players.

EDIT: To be fair, Roro botched game 3.

 

[sixghost]

Roro needed those spore crawlers up earlier.

 

[bbyybb]

Prior to tonight, innovation was on a 3 game losing streak in the pro league (admittedly against different opponents, 2 T/1 P) so it was a nice way to bounce back.

lol I lost 3 games? Ok I'll just 3-0 Roro to make up for those.

Bomber vs Symbol beginning. Hopeing that Bomber takes 2 games before he wins or loses.

 

[Svafnir]

I thought those banneling land mines would do more damage.

Edit: it killed a ton of marines, but did not seem to matter

 

[Aaron]

I thought those banneling land mines would do more damage.

Not against Bomber's production. He just kept pumping out more units.

 

[Yoshichan]

hellbats ain't getting nerfed

 

[Yoshichan]

tasteless 360/PS3-fanboy confirmed

 

[Aaron]

Symbol is making zerg so boring to watch.

 

[Yoshichan]

yaaaawn

 

[sixghost]

This is impressive from Symbol. I can't wait to see innovation play vs this style.

 

[Crimsonlink]

God I want Innovation to rip this apart. Need to work on this vs the ladder. Its very potent if you have less than 3 Tanks.

Sad about Bomber but Symbol's simple strategy on him the match.

 

[sixghost]

Symbol has to know that innovation will be more prepared vs that style in the Ro4. I wonder what his counter the inevitable tanks and drops will be. Hopefully it's a robust build that can adapt to counters and isn't just an all-in that banks on terran taking a quick 3rd with nothing but marine mine.

 

[Striek]

Harrassed to death.

But 'I love the false surprise that a terran can't deal with storm. Its far, far, farrrrr rarer for a terran to win once storm is out. Its also less common to see a great storm dodge than a great storm, since one is hard to do, and the other is not.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Lame.

 

[SamuraiX-]

First gettin' me dem fantasy GSTL points.

get 'er done!

 

[StayDead]

First gettin' me dem fantasy GSTL points.

get 'er done!

Ohhh woah I forgot about GSTL. First is on my team O_O

 

[SamuraiX-]

<3 Creator but First on my fantasy team... who do I root for?? ;_;

 

[Mairu]

First gettin' me dem fantasy GSTL points.

get 'er done!

I almost traded him a couple times past few weeks. Glad I saved him. I'll probably watch the games at some point this weekend when I have time, any specific ones worth checking out?

Effort vs Hurricane was a great series. You can also watch Flash being Flash.

 

[Corran Horn]

Interesting read. I guess during the Group B of death the game between Parting-Life (set 5, game 1) the speed got changed to fast from faster.

That's insane. How did no one notice?

 

[Paches]

Scarlett! is now playing.

 

[Paches]

Scarlett has now won! 2-1 overall. Go foreigners!

 

[Crimsonlink]

Scarlett playing very well.

I expect her to take it vs Ganzi.

 

[Majine]

Wow, Scarlett tearing it up.

 

[Paches]

Scarlett playing very well.

I expect her to take it vs Ganzi.

She would have to go full foreigner at this point.
