Title: StarCraft II Streams and Events
Post by: Devlin on August 08, 2010, 11:55:35 am
I thought it could be neat to have a thread dedicated to posting stream links of high quality gameplay and events. As a general rule of thumb, check http://www.teamliquid.net/video/userstream.php for more stream coverage. I will focus in on a select few streams of higher quality content. Will add more streams later on.



GOMTV Global StarCraft II League Season 2
Here we go, round 2! The big bad-ass korean "global" tournament with over 170,000$ in cash prize! Absolutely monstrous. This tournament will house some of the absolute top players, with names like NaDa, BoxeR, Cool, IdrA, TLO, and Check among many others!
Info: http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens2/

Schedule: http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens2/schedule/

Stream: www.gomtv.net - Register and use the official stream to support continued GSL awesomeness! Definitely recommend premium!



Gameplay streams
I will start off with posting some general information about gameplay streams that are running on a regular basis. They are all high level diamond league, unless written otherwise. Very educational for new players, as well as hilarious at times (Debo). Would be nice to have streams from all different races, so if you find any high quality gameplay streams, let me know!

CellaWeRRa
Zerg
Doesn't stream very often, but when he is on you'll see one of the absolute best starcraft players around. One of the Korean zerg-masters, and broken english makes it even better!
Stream: http://www.livestream.com/cellawerra


Debo
Terran
"I'm like a dinosaur. Like a velociraptor. Not one of those velociraptors that fucked up Jurassic Park, but a velociraptor you have a cup of coffee with."
Stream: http://www.livestream.com/deboBeThuggin


Rigid
Zerg
Caught this guy streaming a ladder game vs IdrA and he won straight up! Top diamond player with commentary.

Day 3 complete!

Quarter finals were amazing! Only series that wasn't really that even was Tarson vs MaDFroG (http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/gamescom/sc2/playoffs/match/19512463/).

Jesus, I have to recommend all the other series if you want epic games:

TLO(t) vs MorroW(t):  game 1-5 (http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/gamescom/sc2/playoffs/match/19512461/)
DIMAGA(z) vs DeMusliM(t): game 1-5 (http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/gamescom/sc2/playoffs/match/19512462/)
IdrA(z) vs SarenS(t): game 1-5 (http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/gamescom/sc2/playoffs/match/19512464/)

Unbelievably good games today, but if I have to call one the best, it would be dimaga vs demuslim.

VODs are going up as usual at: http://tv.esl.eu/de/vod/

Post by: Devlin on August 21, 2010, 07:18:29 pm
Day 4 complete!

Semi finals are done! They weren't as spectacular as the games in the quarter finals imo, but still very high quality!

Tomorrow is the last day of the event, and all that remains is the game for 3rd/4th place starting at 12:50 CET, and of course the grand final which starts at 15:10 CET!

As always, VODs at: http://tv.esl.eu/de/vod/ for those who missed it.
Title: Re: Starcraft 2 Streams and Events
Post by: Devlin on August 22, 2010, 04:39:08 pm
And there it is, the tournament is now completed!
Great matches in both the 3rd place match and the grand final!

Some nice mass-macro games in the bronze match (http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/gamescom/sc2/playoffs/match/19512468/), and the grand final (http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season5/gamescom/sc2/playoffs/match/19512467/) will be discussed for a long time to come I'm sure!

VODs will go up after a while: http://tv.esl.eu/de/vod/

Looking forward to more EPIC tournaments that are surely to follow suit!

As mentioned earlier I have compiled a replay pack of all games of the groupstage and the playoffs, just waiting for one odd replay that is missing (demuslim vs strelok round 3, i could perhaps just leave it out).

These videos aren't really in the right place, but seeing as it's just general SC2 stuff and related to a major event that took place during the weekend I figured I could put it here anyway :)

This is from the GSL offline qualifier in Korea.

IEM American Championship
Begins 20:00 CET
Stream: http://www.glhf.tv
Stream: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/iccup-tv

I don't think I can keep up this constant updating much longer. I'll leave the GSL up for the remainder of the season, and I might add some IEM stuff. But I'm done with all these minor cups and whatnot, just takes a lot of time cause there are so many :/ Can find most of the info on teamliquid.net anyways
Title: watch this!

You need to see this! From the match between Machine and HuK in the IEM championship:
