WTF.
Nestea, July, MC and Huk on Code A?
Who is the current superhero?

Almost everyone has to fight in Code A now to get into the subsequent season of Code S, since only top 8 are safe. Other than that, some of the big stars are slumping, yeah. Some may recover, and some may not.

I really like how the Korean observers will do the cursor circle on important information like when comparing upgrades between players.
I totally did that!
You need to train in Korea to raise your observer APM.
Easy to camera. Hard to control it and think of what players are doing and make sense of it while talking and watching the minimap and production tab. :[

Generally though it is more, get out current thought on how game is going, remark on other players situation to that, see interesting thing on map/stratagy/timing, and just jump from one interesting point to another.

But this means that, in the old format, all of these would be out. Who is winning stuff?

In the old format neither Huk nor MC nor Nestea would be out because they lost in the R016 which previously meant that they would still be in Code S.

Code S finals are already done. Jjakji won it already

Oh, ok, I was under the impression that it was something weird like, a bit of Code S, then Code A, then Code S finals; this makes more sense.

Almost everyone has to fight in Code A now to get into the subsequent season of Code S, since only top 8 are safe. Other than that, some of the big stars are slumping, yeah. Some may recover, and some may not.

Which is a format I approve, if only to get more camera time to good players who, for some reason, get knocked out early on the Code S season; it's just weird to see that none of those got to the safe zone.
 
Did they put Tastetosis on this day of Code A specifically because Nestea was playing?

It's in Artosis' contract that he must cast every game by Nestea. Its necessary or the shit might come off his nose

edit: more likely has to do with the new format, with Code S being over already and such

edit 2: god damned k-pop i must resist
which i find to be incredibly easy

Badass match schedule, and no Khaldor laughing his ass off uncontrollably instead of casting the match, or spending half the match listing win percentage stats instead of providing any sort of insight, or when he does attempt to provide insight it's to say that DRG's an idiot for killing all of his opponent's drones and queens with his mutas (and subsequently winning the game easily) instead of targeting a single extractor instead, because of "how easy it is" to replace drones? Count me in!
you have a really high expectation of the casters.

i learned to accept the non annoying casters so i'm good with code a casters except moletrap.

I was kinda hungry and found a box of KD mac and cheese so I decided to make it for GSL.

Wow this stuff has no taste :(

You don't usually see it because if asd held, Nestea would've had barely any drones and lost for sure.

That said, he read asd correctly and knew that he was doing a 1rax FE into hellions, and that tends to be weak to baneling busts since you get late siege mode.

I imagine Nestea's mind is like a rolodex of builds and he pulls out one once he knows what his opponent is doing.
 
Well, more wondering why Nestea doesn't mix it in once in a while. It's a pretty good build against fast expands, asd wasn't close to holding that.

Fantastic opening and gameplan. Seems easily shut down, but it worked out.
