Can't seem to find VODs anywhere.

The Liquipedia page doesn't have links to any? They should be at the bottom of the page for the IEM entry.

Anyone have any SC2 match videos on YouTube? I'd like to watch a Heart of the Swarm game on my Wii U.

Nope. It's not on Youtube or the ESL website either. SC2ratings/whatever/othersite don't list it either.

*Looks like MVP vs Mana went up on Twitch 1 minute ago. Weird. Waiting for YoDa next then.

That "gl hf , love" and "gl hf , human" exchange between Stephano and PartinG in Game 2 was amazing. LOL

Ret vs. Yonghwa now, game 1 just ended. Ret was just completely smashed in every way. Took so much damage to phoenixes.

 

[Paches]

Get rolled.

 

[Won]

Apollo makes this extra sad.

"Rets best strategy!!"

*Yonghwa walks over it.*

 

[Striek]

Wow Ret sucks defending phoenixes. I feel like overlord speed is mandatory if you can't spare the half a second every minute to rally overlords direct from one hatch to a spore crawler.

 

[Paches]

Ret forgot to wake up, apparently. Next.

 

[Brak]

Ret KO'd on a cannon rush. /facepalm

 

[Won]

Wait! the third game already happened? It's over? Didn't look for like 2 minutes and Ret is dead?

Dammit Ret!

LG-IeM, so close now.

Violeeeeet

 

[Anno]

So can we get rid of Kaeleris now?

 

[Majine]

 

[Aaron]

Since it doesn't really matter who wins now, I hope they just have fun with these games.

Damn, Yoda just manhandled MVP from start to finish in that game.

I don't think I've ever seen a terran go 4 factories building tanks at a time. Insane tank count.

Edit: Great series, terrible last game by MVP. Low-econ, marine only on Ohana, smallest map in the game? Ehhh. Not going to be a HoTS champion any time soon with dodgy decision making like that.

Will watch the vods for the other semi + final tomorrow, gogo Yoda.

The game was pretty much over when that drop got stomped by the mine + turrets. Guess he was just trying something different in an attempt to come back even though it was a terrible idea.

Overall though i thought it was an incredible series and TvT really looks like an awesome matchup even moreso than in WOL.

Dat raidcall guy.. Cant understand what he says and the service does not look interesting at all

They're a big sponsor of EG, which makes me assume they're suckers.

 

[demosthenes]

LOL, no translator, she seems so confused.

 

[Majine]

The translator also agreed that the time for talking is over!

 

[Wunder]

dunno who to cheer for

 

[scy]

Wake up, turn on IEM, watch an Elise catch someone for the instant win.

...well, okay ;_;

YoDa just took First apart like a clock there

 

[Jinaar]

Its actually sad watching how Terran just steam rolls over everything. MAW-Rauders and those verb-intensive Medi-vacs. I cannot imagine how someone tries to understand how to wrap their heads around Terran at the moment. Poor First.

Speed medivacs had nothing to do with that. First would have lost that game the exact same way to normal speed ones.

He lost 6 probes with hardly reacting, seemed distracted or something.

 

[calder]

It was right around the time First had his obs moving through YoDa's bases, I kinda assumed First must have been focusing on scouting and then focused his attention to his ramp or something because his reaction was very very slow. So slow YoDa didn't realize he could have easily dropped both widow mines and got a lot of probe kills. And First also was much slower to pick up the next few drops than we're used to seeing from anyone of his caliber.

 

[Jinaar]

Commenting on both games so far and now the third game happening.

The only thing I can think of is that Terran has been the luckiest of all the races to figure out the best combo of drops, widowmines, mauraders/marines and Medivac boost to keep constant win pressure on each race and that Protoss and Zerg hasn't found their proper counter builds that would work against this.

I will agree that Yoda's macro and micro is amazing in the finals. There is no denying that.

 

[demosthenes]

How did First make it to finals, wow.

 

[calder]

The difference between First's consistently tardy reactions to frequent drops and YoDa's instant reaction to the zealot/temp drop is pretty telling. First has really looked a bit slow and sloppy for as long as I've been watching, did he pull a Stephano last night?

 

[SamuraiX-]

Congrats to YoDa!

First is a very good player so to see him get dismantled the way he did really says something about YoDa's ability. It might have also helped that they were teammates and he could make some predictions about First's play style.

 

[Wunder]

Award Ceremony is awkward x5. Yoda wins 4-0 and grabs the trophy unceremoniously. Then they throw it to the analysis desk to analyze the last game? o_o|||

 

[SamuraiX-]

LG-IM players took 1st, 2nd, 3rd, AND 4th place in this tournament.

Holy loving fuck. LOL

And the whole teams seems like they've been slumping in GSL, I guess they've been secretly practicing hots.

 

[Hazaro]

Watched VODs.

Not bad by Yoda. Disappointed in Violet's play ZvP. Terrible army control.
