ESL Writeup - by crAzerk

The ESL Go4SC2 SEA Cup #1 was the first of hopefully a looong series of tournaments and with a prize pool of $75, you can bet it attracted the top players from SEA!

Anyway, I spotted mOOnGLaDe in the brackets so I dropped him a PM to follow him through his games until he got knocked out (or wins it), but I'll only do a full write-up (with fancy pictures) for the semifinals/finals! Let's go.

OH wait wait, before we start,



I must say Glade is a pretty good mannered... [Read More]

Hi guys, as some of you may know, I am doing tournament write-ups and stuff for SC2SEA.

At the moment, I am only going to be covering the Finals of whatever tournaments I'm asked to cover. However I would like to 'add value' to the write-up with some 'best match of tournament' or 'random news' or something.

Thus, if you all actually know of any REALLY interesting game/series that occurred during the tournament (like maybe a pro getting knocked out by cheese twice in a row, 40 minute epic... [Read More]

EDIT: Btw, I am atqhteo haha. Just got a namechange.

Ah, just finished my write-up for the BSG tonight.. damn it took bloody long. Like from observing the games up till I finished the write-up and all the uploading of pics and migrating it here - about 3-4 hours? Gonna have to reduce my coverage to just finals next time!

Submitted it to the admins, hope it gets published soon heh.

So anyway, I'm offering my services, so to speak, to any tournament organizers who want some sort of... [Read More]

Road to Masters (3)


Hey hey it's the 3rd post in this series... and I'm sucking so bad I should rename it 'Life of a Diamond Noob' or something.

Anyway Blogger is being a bitch by being down for like eternity so I can't post the games I played yesterday, so I'll just do the blog entry of the one I did TODAY, and post it tomorrow. Confusing? Nvm it's not important.

Yup so I'm using Photobucket for my photos and I can't resize them! So sorry if they're all BIG and IN YOUR FACE.

Road to Masters (2)


Day 2 of my push to Masters league!
And this was when Patch 1.3 just came out! With the infestor speed nerf bleah. And the Warp Gate nerf, which means more 2 gate shenanigans as you'll see later on.

1) vs Sidoney (Terran) on Typhon Peaks
This game epitomizes what Benji was complaining about in his blog post.
I opened my usual Spanishiwa style, and he walled off before I could get my drone into his base. (it's a big map -_- )
Tried to fly my OL in at 5min+ to get... [Read More]

Road to Masters!!



Exams are over and so I'm making a push to Masters (I'm in Diamond at about 60% win rate) and I thought it'd be fun to document the process. If you're bored or something you can just have a read through for fun, and see(read?) some of my thoughts on ZvX matchups.

This series of blog entries will follow my journey from May 9th 2011 until I hit Masters or until I die from playing lol. I will give the summaries and my thoughts on the games

1) vs FrOstar (Terran) on... [Read More]

The blog title is misleading - it should probably read something like 'don't diss any build just because you beat it', or 'A build is more than just memorizing the build order so don't criticize it when you beat noobs executing a build order but failing at the build' but both are a bit too long. Even then, I don't even think my full title will be seen in the preview. Oh well.

I'm referring to this thread in the TL forums where the now-famous Spanishiwa shared his no-gas ZvX BO and drew about... [Read More]

Was doing some thinking and came to this conclusion - If you are a newbie starting off in Starcraft 2 and have absolutely no preference for race and just want to start playing the game, pick PROTOSS.

A brief examination of the different races shows why Protoss is the easiest race for a new player to pick up. This is NOT the same as saying that Protoss is the easiest race to play - at the highest level, it's really quite different, and there are differing opinions as to which race is the... [Read More]
