GomTV Starcraft II (GSL) Tournament - Season 3 - Thread of white people in Korea

A diamond toss just beat me and after the game he started giving me advice. So nice.

<3 SC2 community.

(although he did BM a bit during the game)

edit: woah wrong sc2 thread.

Im having big problems with the vods. They keep skipping ahead slightly and at times its like they are playing on fastforward, very strange. Has anyone else had this problem? I never had this in s2.

Apologies if this has been mentioned before, i havnt read the thread yet to avoid spoilers.

Yeah same issue here, seems there was a problem in the encouding, happens for the first few games the last half are ok though, doesn't get TOO bad I think it's at its worst in the Sen games

Just watched the first 2 matches, good stuff so far. So happy to see Sen advance! Loved the 3 way translation even though I can understand what Sen said, they did a good job.
 
I won't be able to watch tomorrow so just going to put my bets in now.

Can't say that I have a clue about most of the match ups though.

Rache vs GgoBooGie
DreamizEr vs Rain
LiberoPrime vs NSPGenius
RainBOw vs NewDawn
BitByBit vs LiquidHayprO

Tosyad vs Fruitdealer
sCfOu vs FOXLyn
AnyproPrime vs TheBestfOu
NEXNaYa vs HongUnPrime

Ended up sleeping after sen's games last night... catching up now. My bet was fucked but it was cool to see LittleKid win :lol

Tonight I'll probably end up watching the first group of matches and then watch the rest the next after I sleep in VODs

Yeah, I had that game pegged the other way until I read that bit on the TL brackets.

Did he switch teams or what?


All these name changes are killing me, I can't keep up! :lol

in his interview nestea said he'd left zenex !
why would they interview nestea about genius?
...

from qualifier interview with him:
Q. There's a rumour you switched teams.
A. I only changed the clan to NsP, the team is still ZeNEX. The reason I didn't attend the clan special was because my home was too far away.

I am so fucking pleased that the GSL is going again! Now I know how it feels for fans of real sports during the off-season. Except we only have to wait a week or two.

Right there with you. It feels weird being this psyched for something. :D

DreamHack will invite Canadian Protoss-player HuK to replace IdrA and korean S-player oGs Inca to replace russian BRAT_OK in the main tournament. His team mate TOP will also join inCa on his trip to Sweden and will participate in the tournament, but needs to play the BYOC-qualifications first in order to qualify for the 32-player main tournament.

That's pretty cool, too bad about Idra
 

Pandaman

Everything is moe to me
well, idra was always going to prioritize gsl, so its not that surprising. :(

glad we'll see more of huk though, his gsl games were insane.

poor BratOK. he couldnt go to the IEM thingy either.. trouble getting a passport for some reason
Brat_OK is a terrorist confirmed.


Great that we're getting to see some more Korean participants in international tournaments. This whole foreigner going to tournaments in other countries thing doesn't only apply to Westerners -> Korea, also the other way around! :D Get some cross-pollination going, as incontrol would say. >_> It's a good thing.

Haha, i love LittleBoy.

Q. The camera captured you laughing after you won.
A. It's an embarrassing story, but I was trying to pull out the plugs from the computer and I banged my head on the window while laughing. I don't think I have a brain (laughs). Still, I was so happy that I won and couldn't control myself (laughs).

Yeah, I had the same problems with some of the VODs when I watched them this afternoon. Really bad stuttering at times, to the point of just skipping sections on occasion.
