DH started wayyy too early. Should have done the Losers bracket first. Oh well will catch the VODs. Goswser vs sOs was so laughably onesided it was painful to watch.

At least we get Naniwa vs Leenock rematch.

Polt vs Hyun coming up.

LOL He must have been really tried. Wonder if HerO can beat Polt. Then again TvP isn't exactly Polt's best MU.

Ho...lee shit.

Dat Game 1.

MMA was absolutely dismantling TaeJa but overcommitted at the front line. TaeJa with the double drop kills off MMA's 3rd and a quarter of his SCVs. MMA YOLOs all the rest of his units into TaeJa's main with a doom drop.

Siiiick hahaah

That would've been brutal if TaeJa lost because of that biffed engagement in the middle of the map.

Glad to see mech looking more and more viable after the balance update.

Actually a bit ridiculous win, but a good read by Life nonetheless.

Life made a successful Muta switch, went in with a massive counter attack when Innovation headed out to win the game. Production was camped by lings and mutas, Innovations army was too slow in killing Life's third, GG.

It's like a year ago when Life pulled out ridiculous wins that shouldn't have been possible, like hard countering blue flamed hellions with lings.

Edit: Haha, what the hell was this game.

Man Life just 2-0 Innovation. Taeja, avenge your Terran brother!

Game 1 was Innovation's if he didn't mess up. Also it was stupid of Innovation to make the tank vs the proxy hatch. You build 2 rax at home and just bunker up. Kill the Zerg with Stim and CS. The Zerg is so behind on their own natural that you can easily kill them. No gas makes Banelings a non issue.

Its interesting how this game can change at the top.

I remember earlier this year, Innovation was just killing everyone all over the place. He looked so unstoppable that it was almost scary.
Then something happened, and well he was beatable and started loosing.

I also find it highly interesting that the top players all admits that Protoss is a race, that relies very much on that your opponent don´t really know what you are up too.
Yet SoS and Dear has managed to pull of big wins this year.

Unreal.

Is Life actually returning to form? The last time TaeJa and Life went at it was at DreamHack Bucharest back in September but was still when Life wasn't showcasing the dominance he has as of late.

One of these players will be in a rude awakening in the form of a 2-0. TaeJa is insanely confident in his TvZ and Life in his ZvT, as they should be, but can't treat either opponent as a typical Terran or Zerg.

I spent my day watching the Quake tournament, so I'll ask: are the DreamHack Starcraft games getting uploaded on Youtube (since Twitch Android app doesn't have VODs, I think)?
If so, what games should I look for? I'm not into Starcraft really (just felt like watching something), so I don't know who to look for (mostly like Protoss, but it doesn't matter much as long as the game's good).

If you fancy Protoss, watch all of sOs's games. Top 3 Protoss player in the world. He's fun to watch.

As for the rest of the matches, any TvTs and TvZs are worth checking out.

Thanks. They aren't on YT yet (neither today's nor yesterday's), but I entered the stream and found a Protoss vs Zerg game, with Protoss actually winning.

Seriously, JD? Getting knocked out by JYP? C'mon, man..........

This basically gives the winner of NaNiwa/Leenock a free trip into losers round 4 to face INnoVation.

Somebody who's way past his prime that I'm sure many would argue shouldn't even be here.

Jaedong 2-0'd him pretty easily at DH Valencia but then all JYP had to do was defeat elfi in a seeding match to qualify for DH Winter.

Merca finally doin work in CS and not a soul noticed. I was hoping Astana would win but my backup was coL, just because they're American.

shows that we can be legit in CS. they didn't have an easy path either having to beat VeryGames and Astana.

Yeah this board isn't too big on CS. Glad to see Complexity back though. Hopefully we see the US scene grow.
