NewSCast for 30-Nov-11

Here we go again everyone.  I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, November 30th.


Well, we are in that calm before the NASL Season 2 finals coming up this weekend.  Before we get into that though, here are the results from the GSL over the weekend:
First, we had the GSL Code S semifinals matches.  The first round was jjakji and Oz in an awesome back and forth series that ended with the Terran Jjakji taking it 3-2 and advancing to his first Code S finals.  The other match also took all 5 games to decide as Leenock, your MLG Nation Champion looking unstoppable as he took down the terran master MVP 3-2 to advance to his first finals.  This means that for the first time in a long time we are guaranteed a new Code S Champion this season.
Now, in Code A we had ro32 play with Losira over Alicia 2-1, Keen over YuGiHo 2-0, Fin over Polt 2-0, Brown over Ryung 2-0, Bomber over JYP 2-0, Parting over Clide 2-0, Lucky over Nada 2-0, Cezanne over Tassadar 2-0, July over Genius 2-0, asd over Hero 2-1, Curious over Monster 2-0, DRG over Luvsic 2-0, Boxer over Virus 2-0 with some very impressive reaper builds, Taeja over Inca 2-0, MarineKing over Zenio 2-0, and finally SuperNova over Squirtle 2-0.


Also in GSL news, the Code A caster Doa has resigned from GSL and taken a job as one of the in-house casters with IPL.  Good luck to him and it is good to see him coming back to the states.


Now, with NASL finals coming this weekend, here are the championship brackets for Friday night's ro16:
Hero vs HwangSin, Huk vs. HasuObs, BratOK vs. Dimaga, TT1 vs Sen, Morrow vs. Mana, DeMuslim vs. Throzain, Idra vs. Strelok, and Sheth vs. Puma.  Let's see who makes it to play on Saturday.


As we mentioned Morrow, it has been announced that he has been training quietly over in Korea recently.  Not only that, but he has been given one of the Code A spots for GSL January, so let's see how the Infested Terran does over in Korea.  Other player news from the weekend include the Korean Check signing with eSahara Esports, Clide has left TSL and joined Slayers, SangHo and JYP both leave TSL, and former BW pro Hyun has signed with TSL.  We also have confirmation that QXC, the Bandana Terran, has been transferred from FXO to Complexity.  This is another strong foreign pick up for Complexity in recent history.


Well, that's about all the news for tonight.  Don't miss any of the action, but if you do you can find it here the next morning at SC2NewSCast.com.
