Look at the games Lilbow won over the last 3 months and getting into Blizzcon. Whenever he was against Zerg he crushed them with 8 gate, blink stalker, great force fields. Life isn't giving him a chance to get there.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Life trying to force Lilbow into instant rage quit retirement.

 

[Syphon Filter]

wtf , this match

 

[Tacitus_]

Life:

 

[HellBlazer]

Welp.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Life zipped up poor Lilbow. Oof.

 

[SporeCrawler]

A 6 pool.

He's actually 6 pooling.

Negative amount of fucks and zero respect.

lilbow just has a poor early game.

lilbow actually defended the 6pool quite well and still lost

 

[Won]

Series went down like one would have expected. Too bad.

 

[SamuraiX-]

TLO and iNcontroL going all in no lube on Lilbow getting annihilated.

 

[Majine]

This seems to be a fundamental difference between koreans and foreigners:

Foreigners play against the opponents race. Koreans play against the opponent.

 

[SporeCrawler]

lilbow just twittered that he had no time to practice hots since lotv is more important. i dont think hell beat life in lotv either though

 

[EmiPrime]

I hope LOTV revives the foreign SC2 scene. The state of the game outside Korea right now is just sad.

Absolutely. This is seen a lot in fighting games with Japanese/Koreans vs Westerners too.

lilbow just twittered that he had no time to practice hots since lotv is more important. i dont think hell beat life in lotv either though

Deserved to get embarrassed.

LotV is more important than not being completely humiliated as the only non-Korean representative on the biggest stage of the year and the final premier HotS tournament.

nojaemjong lol

 

[demosthenes]

Polt just looked really strong in game 1.

 

[SamuraiX-]

What a weird first game.

Polt went for a ballsy engage and played right into Rain's hands. Rain evens up the game and slowly started moving into having an advantage until he decided to needlessly chase a chunk of Polt's army around the map for reasons known only to him. Polt takes advantage and Rain's natural and main get razed. Strange way to throw a game.

 

[demosthenes]

Polt got drunk for game 2.

 

[SamuraiX-]

I echo Nate's sentiments.

What in the actual fuck did I just watch?

 

[unknownstranger]

Lol wtf at that build. If Polt built an Engineering Bay and Turrets it probably would have worked.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Polt; the fuck was that?!

 

[HellBlazer]

Better not try that build again, Polt.

 

[XPE]

Polt; the fuck was that?!

That was pretty much my reaction

 

[Majine]

That was the Linkin Park build. In the end, it didn't even matter.

 

[Tworak]

damn a sc tourney not locked at 480p

 

[SamuraiX-]

Another pitiful doom drop by Polt. He used to be much better at picking off observers.

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

Is it just me, or do the announcers sound just like Peer Schneider and Sam Claiborn from IGN?

 

[Syphon Filter]

dam polt is beast

 

[demosthenes]

Gah, Polt

 

[HellBlazer]

Needed some vikings maybe there, Polt. You're not Maru.

Hey, I'm 5-0 on predictions... I guess it doesn't count for much since I didn't post them though. <_<

 

[Wedge7]

Man, loving all this Starcraft

Felt weird without having matches every night

 

[phoenix296]

Haven't watched much Starcraft since WOL. Checking this out.

 

[StopMakingSense]

Man, loving all this Starcraft

Felt weird without having matches every night

Yeah the past 2/3 weeks of fucking nothing going on has been annoying.

 

[demosthenes]

Ugh, 2 Protoss guaranteed in the Semis....not liking that.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Ugh, 2 Protoss guaranteed in the Semis....not liking that.

What's wrong?

 

[SamuraiX-]

PartinG vs sOs?

I'm prepared to have my mind thoroughly fukt

 

[Syf]

Finally home

Liking the results so far for the most part.

 

[demosthenes]

What's wrong?

Protoss is my lease favorite race. I would prefer ZvT any day. That and I think the reason Protoss has 7 in the top 16 is b/c the start of 2015 was overwhelmingly in favor of P.

 

[StriKeVillain]

FUCK PROTOSS

Damn straight.

 

[grandwizard]

Entertaining game (for a pvp)

 

[Syf]

PartinG no ;-;

 

[SamuraiX-]

$

o

officially through to the quarters.

That 100 grand is no longer safe.

Hide your Terran and Zerg tears.

 

[grandwizard]

Just read up about the lilbow stuff, really disappointing and poor form.

Damn straight.

Hahahaha, touche.

Pretty solid series between the two though.

Speaking of ZvT, we should have some great ZvT games coming up! Well one great one and one Terran dominating one.

PartinG no ;-;

Yea

 

[Syf]

Hyped for the Maru match especially. I want this to be his tournament. The dream is Life vs Maru in the final, for me at least.

 

[demosthenes]

Hydra: He'll [Dream] realize that winning against me is a dream.

:lol :lol

 

[SamuraiX-]

LET'S GO DDDDRRREEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAMMMMM

 

[calder]

TvZ, truly the all time GOAT prestige matchup of SC2

Yup. C'mon Hydra!
