    Blizzard needs to move to the east coast.


    Actually, somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic would be best for everyone.

    Well, like just about all of their showmatches, the players aren't going to play just to win. They're going to have fun.


    Just like the 8 player monobattle WoL showmatch they had a few years back.
    It was friggin' hilarious.


    So, it'll be fun regardless.

    It's when one guy forgets to advertise it and the other has to smoothly work it into his additional commentary like a baseball bat into a hummingbird's anus that really cracks me up.

    The best and most awkward one of those I've seen was during a DotA 2 tournament. Turtle Beach had supplied all the mics and stuff and one of the casters said "alright everyone we're gonna cut into the teams' audio now, because we've got the Turtle Beach Team Chat."

    <crickets>

    Yeah the team just wasn't really talking. Like a solid minute punctuated by like two tiny three word sentences.

    Hysterical.

    I really like pvp. honestly I like all the mirrors now. the players are just so damn good and you see the smallest differences decide games. very cool.

    to the degree to which I want to see these showmatches, I still think this chatter about all four of them is awesome and incredibly entertaining.

    Man, Mvp/Boxer have super overcommitted to this pressure in the middle.

    Edit: As I type that they turn it around.

    committed to pressure is boxer's middle name

    I missed the intros boooooooooo. I'm sure it would have given me chills. shit just seeing mvp and boxer is giving me chills.

    I think my favourite part was Yellow talking about how maybe he could come back and compete and win Blizzcon, and Nestea was in the background kinda just facepalming :D

    Kind of disappointed in this second game.

    could you find a team a like less than mc + huk

    idra + ...


    it's hard to not wonder how much, if at all, LOTV is affecting the play in the real tourney. I can't believe Innovation really thought everything he did today was his best shot at beating life.

    so so so beyond excited for the first GSL et al games come next year.

    They're just making shit up now.

    For those not watching, MC + Huk won game 1. Then MC played ALONE against Snute and TLO, but he could specify their race (Terran)... and he WON.

    And now... "the admin decided they'd be playing ZvZ". So now they are.

    They're doing a few segments before the games today. just had a q&a

    I think they're about to show a new carbot animation


    edit - it really didn't surprise me MC won that. he played like MC against 2 people who don't play terran. most pros would lose to what he did, having a second set of hands doesn't make you more prepared for timings.

    it wasn't really 2v1. it was archon v 1

    Ground Weapons 1 finishing while you only have 2 Zealots and 2 Sentries probably points at too much greed by Classic?

    (Been a long time since I watched any competitive SC2.)

    Classic was in a badddd spot there. He opened super safe and Life opened hatch hatch pool, so he had to do something in order to try to catch up, and the thing he tried was a 5 minute 3rd nexus. Then Life scouted it immediately, turned the switch on to three base aggression, and... you know.
