Here we go again with another fun-filled day. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Thursday, January 12th.
First, we had the last day in the GSL Code S ro32. The matches were Puzzle and Parting advancing, Nada takes 3rd place and Keen takes 4th.
We also had the first day in the NASTL with EG taking on Empire. The format is 4 bo1s, if a tie exists, then an ace bo3. In match 1 we had Happy taking down Puma. Then we had JYP over Aristeo. Next was Beastyqt over DeMuslim and Kas over Machine to take the series 3-1 for Empire Gaming.
We also had day 1 in IEM Kiev. The groups A and B played today with Naniwa and White-Ra taking group A and Kas and Zenio taking group B which means Strelok, Titan, NightEnd, and Grubby all fail to advance.
Also, we had the announcement of a mTw signing the old BW player SunCow, then almost immediately revoking that signing due to legal troubles that came to light surrounding SunCow.
Now, onto the drama front. We had other news coming out as the story about TSL/Coach Lee hit in Korea. More and more stories of issues and misconducts come forth from Korean netizens include an accusation that Lee forced the apology from Fruitdealer, Trickster, and Coach Won of StarTale about the monetary issues that came forth about 5 months ago. The new word is that Lee blackmailed them with knowledge of online sports betting that the two players engaged in. Mind you, these are currently unconfirmed rumors, but seeing as how the flood-gates are now opened to the public about major misconduct violations revolving around Coach Lee, I would not be surprised if more of this sort of thing comes to light.
Well, that's about all the news that we have for you tonight. Don't miss any of the action, but if you do you can find it here the next morning at SC2NewSCast.com.
