The unfortunate part is that apparently during this tourney Shine's wife left him and took the kids That's why the whole bit with his son was kinda odd

That's awful Well I was maybe slightly off with the kids but http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/19506686/flash-shine-set-clash-asl-season-3-finals quote:Shine, 25, is a father of two young boys. Yet to enter grade school, both were occasionally seen in the background of his streams. After he made it through to this season's round of 16, he promised on air that he would "be going home to the boys with hands full of chicken." Hearts melted around the nation. Fans affectionately called him the "Dad Zerg."

What a loving bummer. No wonder he just played like, 2.5 straight up macro games against the best macro player in history. He probably didn't even want to be there.

They promised a new ASL Team League, I hope it starts up soon I guess part of the drama with the SSL is that a lot of the bigger players didn't join because while they said they "didn't like the selection format," its likely that Afreeca pressured its big names not to join another company's venture. So at this point and time I'm not sure we're going to be able to have simultaneous big leagues :/

Elephunk posted:korean fashion in big-white-guy sizes lol P. Good set I would say it was pretty conclusively over: free had lost almost all of his army's complexity, and while Protoss can quickly remacro on Speedlots, those would have fared poorly against Efforts Mass Hydra/Lurker combo. Free was getting closed to mined out while Effort had total map control and was poised to go crazy on bases. Maybe he was thinking "this is just hosed and the whole game went wonky, time to cut my loses." But its still not a good sign to see that mindset of someone going out before the "closing engagement" I def get the sense that Effort was playing with his food in the last game though Minrad posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTdGqzrv7wQ&t=210s Larva is the people's champ WDIIA fucked around with this message at 13:04 on Jun 11, 2017 |

Hey, so if you're wondering why there hasn't been anything major lately, it seems that Blizzard decided to forbid any offline tournaments until SC:R comes out It's really dumb and lame and reminds me of the Blizzard/GOM v Kespa pissing match when SC2 came out (remember when the "super totally organic and not some sort of shill" line was that Kespa was literal child slavery that should be investigating by the UN, so buying/support SC2 was an action in support of Human Rights? How loving embarrassing that was) Anyway, in place of ASL Team battle 2 the players got together and organized an online tournament, the TL thread is http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/bw-tournaments/524775-gtbsubstitute-for-atb-s2 No English commentary (and I don't really have time to follow atm) but it's cool that the players still want to keep things going But there is some event of 7/30 or something, no solid details yet

I thought one of the big problems blizzard had with scbw was they had no control of it since everyone just pirated it.

Blizzard just wanted control over esports, and look at what they've done with it in every game they have had that control: sucked balls.

Mymla posted:lmao Blizzard had effectively nothing to do with Pro BW until like the year before SC2 came out and they stepped in and told Kespa "Actually we are going to be running this scene now" So my guess is they are getting front of it now so once Remastered drops no one gets uppity Also have to wonder if they want to drop of profile of Vanilla to reduce the inevitable "actually, old thing was better than new thing" backlash But at the end of the day, Activision works in teemrrible, mysterious ways
