Come watch competitive StarCraft: Brood War!!! We are now in the round of 16 of Afreeca Starleague (ASL) Season 21.Today's Group D is the group consisting entirely of Terrans;BarrackS (T)Leta (T)RoyaL (T)Light (T)Korean livestream: https://play.sooplive.com/afstar1English livestream: https://play.sooplive.com/dth03119Liquipedia page:https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/ASL/21
>4 terrans
Who are /we/ rooting for, bros?Is barracks the only one we give a shit about?
Weak willed: "Ughhh TvT so boring"CHAD: "All TvT? Sign me the fuck up"
>>737357375Kek, accurate.>>737357386I'll root for BarrackS, sure.But I also think Light should advance.
>tvtI sleep
>>737357354>(T)>(T)>(T)>(T)
>>737357354LET'S GO. i hope terran advances tonight
oh man it’s been years since I’ve caught a koreatime thread at night gotta load up my GOMTV player
IT'S TIME
TvTvTvT
>/ourguy/ vs /ourguy/
why did he do it bros
I LOVE TERRAN SO MUCH
>>737357390Both opinions are based and correct.>>737357697I genuinely miss these long-ass trench war games. I know I'll regret that the moment I see one, but right now I do miss them.
>>737357697>>737357830I wish maps had buildable terrain in the center again. I miss the days where you'd have 50 supply depots blocking pathing and P had to rely on dropship bombs to break through.
>>737357570only way to get more terrans into Ro8
Barracks, Light or Royal; who's gonna not make the cut?I haven't seen a lot of Barracks games lately so it's impossible for me to say, but Royal has been in a very good shape
>>737357872>I wish maps had buildable terrain in the center again.Alternatively, at least just include a few maps like that to toss things up a bit without having it dominate every match. It's always more fun if there are a few unorthodox maps in the pool.
what the FUCK was her problem
https://www.twitch.tv/gypsy93gypsy pirate stream
oof
Hope it's Light and Barracks going through so that they can get crushed by Tulbo after having shit talked him so much
>>737357386I do like Leta. Wraiths are pretty standard in TvT these days though so it's his least entertaining matchup.
here we go
*pew*
BarrackS getting bullied by Wraiths, lmao.
>>737358243>gets ignored by his groupieLMAO
RAPE THE WALLFILL THE WHOREFUCK LIKE NEVER BEFORENO RETREATNO CONTROLWE ARE SEMEN IN THE HOLERAPE THE WALL
LETA'S MAKING IT WORK!!!!
EVIL SOUNDS
Who am I rooting for, bros?
>>737357354>TvT
>>737358560Ghosts
>>737358594Have any nukes happened semi-recently?
>>737358657there has been one (1) nuke in all of ASL history
Anyone else having issues with the kr stream sounds?
>>737358657>semi recentlyI'm pretty sure there has been more than one in ASL, but I couldn't tell you when
>>737358709yeah, just refresh
>>737358709yea their gookfilter is failing and the demonic deep speech is coming through
legit felt bad for bisu yesterday if only all 3 of them could have made top 4
>mass d-matrix metaYou might not appreciate it, but this is what peak brood war is
The Terranny DEI group.
TOTAL SCV DEATH
>more red/blue slopThey're the best players in the world, let them choose their own colors.
>>737358849Another win for AoE2...
AAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE
WRAITHS EATING GOOD
>Barracks? More like Factory
MMMM DROBSHIPS
>>737358849They should be allowed to use the unofficial colors. Even the ones that Blizzard arbitrarily decided to disable. I want to see pink vs pale green
it's over for letakilled by his own unit, the wraithpure betrayal
>tfw I can't fill my own boots
Leta tried a bit too hard to style on Barracks
>>737358951pure pottery
>>737358849>>737358932They can but the observers change them to red/blue with shift+tab to make things clearer for the viewers.
leta's still on equal bases used up so it's far from overit's gonna depend who can secure their bottom bases first
>Valks
>22 minsi dont get it why can't they just play like flash and finish in 14 mins?
>>737359015sigh*unzips penis*
somehow Leta is still alive
>>737359020Because they are only mortals.
>>737359015How did you get this picture of my wife?
>>737359001What do you know
>>737359020unfortunately neither of these players have the patented Flash Aura of Stupidity which causes the enemy to walk 20 tanks into their defensive linethis game might be sloppy but there's far fewer unforced errors like happens in every flash game because there might be matchfixing
You can't help but love Leta
>>737358657>>737358696>>737358718I think the only nuke I can remember was NaDa vs Larva in some season ages ago.
Suddenly VULTURES EVERYWHERE
LETA
>>737359079>"I admire Savior"-Lee Young Ho
>3 valks vs control group of wraiths>the wraiths win
LETA VS TULBO FINALS INCOMING
>>737359015>
was losing hope there but my boy delivered
victory sippy
Leta is a fun lad. Hope he moves on.
Valks are such a meme in TvT. You might as well go ghost and lockdown or just nuke tank lines
If there's any other oldfags who were here back in the original korea time threads during the avertec intel classic in 2008 please share this special memory with me.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFyAUf0y9ik
>>737359159Terran pros can't help themselves, whenever there's two or more aircrafts on the map is a good enough reason to buy the waifu
I feel so bad for everyone involved in this production for having to stay overtime twice as much as they should todayOn that note I can't commit this much time of my day so I'm tapping out. I'll watch the replay at 2x speed later
>>737359203>17 years ago
>>737359118balls are off
c'mon Righto-kun, beat Loyal!
>>737358768Fucking Sauron attempting to manifest via Afreeca.
>>737359203I 'member
>>737359203Have this.
Let's be honest, Light looks his age, his play is very weak and I can't imagine him winning a single game tonight
>>737359305
WRAISUED
R O Y A LOYAL
DAT ROYAL SMIRK
>see enemy has no tanks>see enemy has no vultures>see enemy has no goliaths>see enemy has no expansions>still manage to get blindsided by wraiths as you only have 2 goliaths in positionFucking how
>Leta vs Royalwraith vs wraith incoming
Is royal even human? Why does he look like... that?
>>737359842his lights were off, didn't see the cloack wraiths coming
>>737359842Terrannies were only good in the KeSPA days of "optimization", i.e. skipping static defense, gambling with your openings, blind pushes, etc. Once everyone learned how to play, they quickly fell off.
royal looks like a villain
Leta 1st, Barracks 2nd. I need it to happen.
Finishing first is a disadvantage since you might have to play Flash in the round of 8 or Tulbo
What the fuck the game is over? I just went to take a shit
>>737360058were you shitting for 20 minutes?maybe you should eat a piece of fruit like Xun advises heh
>>737360197In my defense I also showered and folded the laundry, I really thought I'd have plenty of time
DISHONESTY
>not a single SCV killed
PARRIED, BEGONE LETARD
>>737360334it's not even his final form
Classic Leta wraith
>>737360343oh shi-
Why not just make a bunker and put 3 muhrines there?
I'm counting this as two proxy cheeses
Absolute SCB devastation

Leta is now my guy.
>>737361552>tfw you miss the cameralel
>FlaSh draws Letayep another ro4 for Flash.
Letachads rise up
L E T A G O D SETAGODS
happy for leta
>>737361595Prepare for Leta in the semi finals
>>737361595flash and his luck are just never ending
The next game will vindicate my belief that Light is Korean Artosis
>>737361904wat? light is very good
>still two bo3s left
>>737361979>4 more hours of yummy wummy tvt goodnessyeah I'm thinking based
sound fucking up non stop
I just woke up and I hear Leta advanced first. Fucking what?
>>737362131Leta beat Royal with cheese
>>737362130I'm glad it's not just me
BASUBALLURU
Really wasn't expecting both Light and BarrackS to be in loser match.
>>737357354Bampu
>>737362549I memed Leta too much...
I think this might be that anon's 45 minute game
>>737362584Yeah.I mean, Leta *IS* good, but I honestly never think of him as ro8 material.
>Barr-ACKs
>>737362603I'm so bad at reading the gamestate
>>737362756It's okay anon. There's a reason we're watching the games instead of playing.
>Schizoracks
>>737362654
>zesty
remove the interested terran if you have to remove a zerg unit d e s u
LMAO 2FACT
EZ
>>737362979
RIP to my boy.
HOW??
What the fuck is going on here, TvT but it's actually fun?
no one cheeses like this against flash btw
>>737363107Follow the script
>>737362654Prophetic
last time they met royal outpaced light, i think he can do it again
>>737363538Light plays a very standard, safe and solid Terran, which I honestly feel is an outdated style. A lot of top players have adapted quite well to it. Stylistically, I feel like Light is quite similar to Flash but he just lacks the magic touch that Flash has.
>>737363538I always think of Royal as being slightly better than Light. I don't mind who wins tonight though. Either of them will be dangerous in the ro8.
When the fuck are they putting StarCraft Remastered on Steam?
>both sides maxed out>map split evenly down the middle
>>737363782Flash optimizes and really grinds that 5.1 -> 5.2 -> 5.3 advantage over you, Light feels like 5:5 until you fuck up against him.>>737363818That's true about their advancing.
Is it time...for cattlebruisers?
>>737364037hell yeah
I wonder how many anons are still here watching live? I do understand how too much TvT can be tiring.
>>737363979Start emailing Blizzard
>>737364112I'm not dead yet.
>>737364112I'm still watching, but I missed the first hour of the day (turned it on about 4 minutes into game 2) because I overslept so I haven't been here the entire time
>>737364112I read ya... SIR
>>737364112I'm taking a break... i'm too weak
>>737364112It helps that the bo3s have finished in two games so far.
Dropshipbros...
LIGHT GETTING AIR WEAPONSI REPEATAIR WEAPONS INBOUNDSET A COURSEFOR INTERCOURSE
>>737364112Thread is pretty dead compared to yesterday, but yesterday was a bit unusualThese are probably the most enjoyable TvTs that I've seen in ages
BATTLECRUISERS
>>737364235IT'S HAPPENING
Royal needs to go lockdown
Cattle = bruised
Royal scanned the BCs has hasn't built an answer yetHe doesn't have anywhere near enough time to get an air fleethis only possible response at this point is LOCKDOWN GHOSTS LET'S FUCKING GOOOO i hope
>>737364441I fucking wish, but surely ghosts will take even longer to build than twenty wraiths
FAT FUCKS
>>7373644915/8No7Come on baby
>>737364414>>737364491The violence is escalating.
Stop eating missiles!!
what the fuck is light doing. snipe some CCs retard
>>737364549>Ok
>166/170 supplyoh no lightbros
>>737364549
light is throwing the game. he has his deathball of his BCs doing nothing
SpottedYou beautiful bastard
YAMATOOOOOOOOOOOO
Wait where the FUCK did Royal's army go he just lost 70 supply instantlyWas that all in scvs?
>sit in bathtub>want to watch the stream on my phone>need to check the terms of service for the player>can't go into full screen>try desktop mode>can't get into full screen>get a pop up that says 'get the soop app for EVEN MORE CONVENIENT viewing'This is why starcraft is dead
Big Battle Cruiser
ggG
>2k gas bank for Royal I bet he wishes he did go lockdown now
>Light drinking AGUA instead of sugary slopBased, i'll cheer for you
>>737364862he was fine until he randomly decided, after 20 minutes, to try to go wraiths vs a 3/2 bc armyWhat did he expect? Even without the valks his 0/0 wraiths would be slaughtered. lockdown was unironically the right choice and instead he threw the game
>>737364990He had the time to build fucking nine science facilities and covert ops centers, a generational throwMy fucking face when
Nice hold. Royal barely lost anything of consequence from that.
bew bew raisu :DD:D:D
>>737365258o shid here come the derran wraibs :D:D:D:D
Leta saved TvT
As far as meme maps go, I do love Jane Doe.
bew bew gloaking dech :DDDDDD>fugggggg t. ank
>>737365471I didn't think it would be this memetastic but it's been a pleasant surpriseI'd still love if we had an island map like roaring currents though
>>737365547>roaring currentsThat was a fun map to watch but I've heard some people say it was rather imbalanced.
>>737365547Bring back the map with permanent d-webs. That map was guaranteed kino.
this game is why ppl dislike tvt
>royal's turn to go battlecruisersWill we see the lockdown counter this game?
>>737365726I'm gonna jinx it again by saying this'll be the 45 minute game.
Cattlebruisers
OH FUGGG RAIDSU D:
Oh my fucking god that hurt to watch
bew bew gloaking dech :DDDDDD>fugggggg t. baddle gruiser
Holee fuuuuck BCs losing to cloaked wraiths lmao.
Holy shit Royal fucking fell apart so hard lmao
MAEK WRAITH
Why didn't he just tactical jump?
>>737365801you know what, considering the clown shit we've seen today it wouldn't be that big of a surprise if the 1v1 map went on for 45 minutes
>>737365996SC2 bro.....
>>737366014We need a base trade that ends with 2 cloaked wraiths being the last units alive on the map
TvT gets 10 times more exciting when BCs are involved.
YAMATOOOOOOYAMERO YAMERO YAMATOOOOOOO
hmmmmm minerals
Bruh.....Royal's slipping.
>>737366190Feels like it. They're both in a state of fug though.
>>737366058Please God yes, my bingo card demands it
>>737366231Royal looked so good like 10 mins ago, but that big BC blunder really set him back.
CATTLEBRUISERS OPERATIONAL
we're reaching endgame tvt levels of fugtime for the science vessels for dmatrix and emp wars
Prepare yourselves for BBC on RBC action
Honestly, the comfiest thing about TvT is hearing Comsat Scan sounds every 10-20 seconds. I fucking love that shit. It's like ASMR to me.
Oh no, Royal is boomed
royal pls one more game
Royal still has two half-full bases, Light is about to be down only oneIf royal can stall this out another 5-10 minutes I think he has a shot, bros
Royal you can't lose that expansion! AAAAAA
>>737366462I hope so, I want a game 3.
GEEEEGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
KINOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
oh god, not another one

TODAY HAS BEEN FILLED WITH SO GOOD GAMES I AM ERECT
>>737366561I legit loved that Game 2.
What a fucking match
>>73736661813K-16K viewers on SOOP compared to yesterdays 35K-40K, the masses just can't appreciate the sheer wonder of TvT
>picture of light in his mbx hero game jerseyNow that's fucking kino
TvT night/morning has been better that expected.
LETS GO
>>737366748I pity the fags who skipped tonight because they thought it'd be 6 hours of tank lines.
Double proxy rax him, you won't
Free space status: finally claimed
>>737366891>watching the english castI tried watching them a bit last year and couldn't stand them
>>737366891Do you regret not putting the free space in the middle?
ANOTHER 30+ MINS MATCH INCOMING, MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON LIGHT AND ROYAL'S WRISTS.
LMAO 2PORT :D
what losing to Leta does to a nigga
>>737367035>he thinks he's Leta>>737367046kek
IT'S JUST LIKE MY ZVZ
ggggggg
Leta's sickness has infected everyone.
>>737366960They have had some good calls tonight, at one point the word zesty came out>>737366976I have finally, just tonight, realized that the squares get randomized, I am have stupid, please understand
>>737367046>>737367147Leta changing the meta in real time. This is Leta's world now.
>>737367173You either die off-meta or live long enough to see yourself become the meta
Call itWho wins?
>tfw light is too old and his wrists explode
>>737367269Leta
>>737367173I honestly can't believe how exciting TvT has been tonight, wasn't there a 4 terran group just last season that was an absolutel snoozefest?
>>737367269THE DISHONEST ONE WINS
SNEAKY 12 O CLOCK EXPANSION
>Hidden bases
>>737367269Loyal > Raito
>flash has a near 80% winrate in TvThow the fuck does he do it, these cats look scrappy in comparison
>>737367269I'm rooting for Royal at this point
>>737367390because he has an inside cabal of match-fixers has an aura of stupidity that causes people to repeatedly walk 50+ supply of army into his high ground tank lines over and over, more so than vs any other player
>>737367390Superior starsense folded 1000 times.
woah hold on this is too greedy for royal
MAEK CC
>he takes top right too
>>737367390he optimizes more and does it better than anyone, he and Ample went identical builds yesterday and Flash had 5 factories vs Ample's 4He shat out a factory and its production out of thin air compared to the other terran
>royal doing his best ample impression doing useless dropslol
MAEK CCMAEK TNAKTAEK MAP CONTROL
>>737367581>he and Ample went identical builds yesterdaydid you forget the fact that ample went 2 dropship goliaths and then proceeded to walk those goliaths into tanks
>>737367602Light had to pull everything back tho
fuck i'm getting sleepy
really spreading the map here
>>737367556>>737367618anon it's not pvz you can't just spam MAEK
>>737367665And Light just showed how to properly drop.
>royal choking another game by forgetting to scanGOD DAMN IT ROYAL
ROYAL IS THE FUCKING CHOKEMASTER HAHAHA

>>737367694ok i will spamTAEK MAP CONTROL
MonarchybrosNot like this
>l0ght
nog da braidhs D:D:D:D:D bew bew bew bew!!!!!noooo hang dont run into the braidhs!!!
Royal, where's your AA?
All light needs to do is maintain map control and choke royal out, that double expand really gutted Royal's standing army, that was too greedy
ACK
>>737367906Lost it all to cloaked wraiths after not scanningPlease understand
Oh well. We got a lot of good games so I'm happy.

I don't watch a lot of SC, but watching TvT matches where they claim territory with tank lines is really cool to see. like some world war 1 shit.

>>737368931Flash also hasn't been looking his usual dominant self this tournament. He's won enough to make it this far, but the games have been far from clean, and Snow is the most consistent Protoss around
The forest is alive! With bugs and clicking!
>>737369158>Flash also hasn't been looking his usual dominant self this tournament. He's won enough to make it this far, but the games have been far from clean, and Snow is the most consistent Protoss aroundFlaSh's only loss so far is against JD, no? And his TvZ is his "weakest" matchup in the entirety of ASL.His TvP is the strongest, I think.Though going by performance and eye test this season, I'd say Snow's performance is the shakier of the two. Also, Snow has the yips, so he might choke again :(I'm looking forward to it regardless.
I can already see the future>Snow will perform his best and eliminate Flash in an epic BO7>only to lose 0-4 to JD
