DISCLAIMER: To the mod who was deleting/moving threads the other week, this is NOT a general thread. It doesn't belong in /vg/, these are only made twice a week when the games are on, and it dies when they end, and only for the duration of the tournament. General threads go 24/7, this is only up for 3-4 hrs a week.
Are the old washed up pros still taking dives to give nobodies free passes to make it last longer/more interesting?
Or is it at the semis/finals by now?
friendly reminder
I would say we're at the stage when shit is beginning to get real, so probably not. Considering we have Mong, Shine and Ssak all in this round though. Anything could happen. I'm personally hoping for piglord to make it to the finals.
>goes out his way to create a hard group so he'll get swapped out
>doesn't get swapped
>2-nils his group anyway
ssak is a leg end
give me your power bros. I don't know if I can stay up for the games on my own passion alone
awwwwww yis
SOMEONE TELL ME PIGLORD IS PLAYING TODAY
I lost interest a few weeks ago when it was obvious that the old pros were just throwing games blatantly just so the brackets/tournament wasn't so predictable in some desperate attempt to make the non pros look decent.
I realized it and I couldn't stop seeing it after that.
I had hoped after korea time ended years ago on GOMtv and sc2 came out that if they ever did bring BW back and stream it for americans and shit like that, that they would drop the whole pros taking dives for money thing, but it's obvious they haven't stopped doing it.
It's not as interesting when I know the pros are always gonna win, with maybe 2 planned "upsets" at the ass end of the tournament.
Only real reason to watch is Tastosis.
11:50am
just got up
huge bowl of cereal for breakfast
I am ready
nope, he's playing shine another day
on the bright side that means there's a decent chance he'll get through
Ssak vs Bisu TODAY
Piglord vs Shine 16.5
Soulkey vs Best 21.5
Flash vs Last 23.5
is it a Bo3 or Bo5?
piglord is playing tuesday.
I will be doing a pigshindig when he beats shine and then bisu to face flash in the final
tesagi
all matches from now are Bo5
I doubt it, when those players were caught taking dives in 2010 there was a pretty big shitstorm over it. I legitimately think it's just that easy to make a huge mistake and lose unexpectedly.
I would reccomend you watch the previous match before this with jaedong, ssak and last, it was the best series of the whole season, especially the ZvZ and TvZ at the end.
>when those players were caught taking dives in 2010
tell me more about it
did anybody see flash's reaction to realising he was going to have to play Last in the Ro8? It was fucking priceless. All that careful planning and group building, and he gets shafted by the stargirl.
No dude. Earlier in the tournament, it was extremely obvious that the old pros were taking dives and making rookie mistakes just to give the others a pass, then while in losers, they NEVER made a mistake again.
It happened several times in a row week after week.
Like WEEKS ago, maybe pools actually.
I remember someone "beating" Jaedong and I remember someone "beating" another old pro I believe.
It was super obvious that Dong was throwing. He didn't even care.
>tfw stargirl will never fondle your starballs

There was a BW one in 2010 and a SC2 one in 2015.

I like it how he's sitting in there in his shorts/boxers
>dem bantz from bisu
Flash's channel is full of weird shit. Yesterday was a video of him giggling watching Larva go full on batshit rage on his keyboard
ITS STARTING
>when you are so rich you just stream yourself watching other streams and giggling like a retard
TERRAN DOMINATION
>Ssak chooses a love song because he's about to fuck bisu

>"JUST CHEESE MY SHIT UP"
550 minerals well spend
J U S T
>the one time looking at the resource tab would have been useful
>they don't show it
fuck you
Why is there no resource tracker on the top right?
It was there past days
proxy gate into hidden dts classic protoss
I know I'm late to watching Brood War stuff, but that beginning was nuts.
>number of terran players somehow goes up from round of 24 to round of 16
I'm sure dong THrew himself out of top 8 then, duh
the absolute state of Protoss pro-gaming
Train wreck after train wreck
>Raised his barracks
lmao what the fuck is going on
wtf is this game?
OMG
THIS FUCKING GAME
seeded players joined in the RO16
THIS FUCKING MATCH WHAT IS GOING ON
I don't even know what's going on amymore!
TOP FUCKING KEK
SSAKFAGS BTFO
comedy fucking gold
THAT SPIDER MINE
lmao dat mine
loving every second
are these guys drunk
Flash was seeded into ro16 and none of the ro24 terrans got kicked out
these mines tho
IT'S A WORKER GENOCIDE
SCOUTS INCOMING
this dude mech game is trash.
just placing mines and not baiting.
>building Scouts
>EVER
whats the handle of the interviewer chick again? she's like B+/A- on iccup right?
>implying this game isn't already a massive clusterfuck
>implying scouts wouldn't be the cherry on top of it all
>Implying Bisu wont find a way to make scouts viable.
WE COOL BRO
THIS GAME IS LIT
>implying bisu isn't going to win anyways
might as well add insult to injury
sSak's multitask game isn't too good.
>goes out his way to create a hard group so he'll get swapped out
What?
>this is only the first match in a series of clusterfucks
Spider mines are so much more interesting than widow mines
Why are they not in sc2 instead
gg incoming
>Why are they not in sc2 instead
couldn't recreate the weird dragging AI
Bisu's multitasking is just too much for Ssak
they're the reason terran is considered overpowered right now in bw
No, they're one of many complaints
Oh fuck, shit, did I miss anything?
Bisu is on tonight.
Three gateway strat in terran base from the start
you missed an absolute meme opening by Bisu into complete clusterfuck
meme builds
REFUGEE MINING
i've seen bisu do off the wall starts like that in old recordings
gg
bisu loses first game
yes but repair, floating buildings, siege splash, and scv health isn't that much more crazy than what zerg and protoss have
a 75 mineral unit that can lay 3 free mines that deal a lot of splash damage is
wtf is the clump of red at 11 o clock
