Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Friday, January 13th.
Sorry about skipping the cast last night, but there was not much to speak of. While there is still not a ton of news for today, there were a couple of significant moves to talk about.
First of all, the new brackets and tournament style for the upcoming GSTL season have been released. The tournament style is set up some what differently from previous seasons. There will be playoff rounds to determine double elimination brackets seeding. Those seeds then will advance teams into finals playoffs and start seeds for the next season.
Another great bit of information to be announced because of this is that Quantic Gaming featuring players such as Naniwa and Sase have joined forces with StarTale full time in a player and league exchange program which will cover SC2 as well as other games. Hopefully their partnership will last longer then the short-lived one between Quantic and IM. Good luck to all the teams on the upcoming GSTL season which is set to start on January 27th.
In other rather big news, 2-time GSL champion MC has officially left his long-time team oGs and joined SK Gaming full time. The two teams had a limited partnership with the players MC and Nada, but that partnership has dissolved. MC signed with SK Gaming who may look to expand their SC2 roster in the process.
JP and State of the Game have dissolved their partnership with MLG citing the spirit of independent ESPORTS journalism. This means that SOTG will return testing a new date and time slot. The show will air on Thursdays at 4PM PST. They say this is to attempt to cater to the European audiences as well, but that if it does not go as planned, they are willing to test various other dates and times as well. The new season will start on January 19th over at twitch.tv/stateofthegame.
The last thing to talk about today is that ESV.tv has teamed up with ASUS ROG for their invitational tournament. The winner of the ESV.tv Grand Prix will receive one of the 32 invite spots to the upcoming ASUS ROG Invitational in Finland during the last weekend in February.
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.

NewSCast for 20-Oct-11
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Thursday, October 20th.
Well, again the calm before the storm that is BlizzCon starting up this weekend. Only a bit of action to speak about as we had Day 3 in the up and down matches over in Korea. The results were sC and Taeja in Code S with Lucky, TOP, and Noblesse taking Code A.
The only action was groups C and D in the ESV.tv Korean weekly finals. The results in group C were Life 2-0, GuMiHo 2-1, Puzzle 1-2, and Inca 0-2. In group D we had Coca 2-0, BboongBboong 2-1, JookTo 1-2, and Annyeong at 0-2, the top two from each group advancing for a chance at that Code A spot.
Well, that's about all until tomorrow. BlizzCon has a ton of action, so this weekend should be packed with SC2. Don't miss any of the action, but if you do, you can find it here the next morning at SC2NewSCast.com.

Vibe over Sheth 2-1, Hero over Cruncher 2-0, Fenix over White-Ra 2-1, and finally DeMuslim over Lowely 2-0. This means the division standings after 1 week of play are:

Sheth 0-1
White-Ra 0-1
Cruncher 0-1

On Thursday we have Huk vs. Mana, Rain vs. Axslav, and BratOK vs. Haypro. Why only 3 matches listed, I am not sure. Tune in tomorrow and we will see.
Also today we have play in the ESVtv Korean Weekly. Remember, the top winners of this tourney get placed into the final tourney to decide who will get a Code A spot. The winner today was Taeja taking out BboongBboong 4-1. The 3rd/4th places went to Creator and Squirtle.
Some other news for today is that we had the announcement that the player Polt, formally known as Optimus, has left his team Prime and is looking to remain as an independent player for awhile. Also announced is Tl TeamSpeak open #24 coming up this weekend. This is back to the 1v1 format instead of the 4v4 they tried last week. Tune in for that come Saturday.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, September 7th
Alright everyone, here we go again. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Wednesday, September 7th.
Well over the weekend we had some great action over in Korea for the Up and Down matches to decide the final Code S and Code A spots for the next season. Here are the results from Day 1:
SuperNova over Alicia, Leenock over Byun, SuperNova over Yoda, Alicia over Byun, Leenock over Yoda, SuperNova over Byun, and Leenock over Alicia. This means that Code S goes to SuperNova and Leenock, with Alicia, Yoda, and Byun all going to Code A.
From Day 2 play we had a ton of matches to decide this group: Losira over MC, Check over Kyrix, Jjakji over Losira, MC over Kyrix, Check over Jjakji, Losira over Kyrix, Check over MC, Jjakji over Kyrix, Losira over Check, and Jjakji over MC. These results set up playoff rounds where we had Check over Losira, Losira over Jjakji, Jjakji over Check, Losira over Check, and finally Jjakji over Check. In the end, the results are Jjakji and Losira to Code S, Check, Kyrix, and the great MC all going to Code A.
In other news, the final invites to DreamHack Valencia have been announced. For the complete list we have Lucifron, Rain, Hero, Thorzain, DRG, Idra, Huk, and finally Naniwa.
Also announced is the TL TeamSpeak Open #23. This time it is a 4v4 format. That should be fun and excited to see what kind of teams appear from this. Tune into Team Liquid this weekend for those matches.
Another announcement today is from ESV.tv, who used to be iCCup. It seems that they have reached a partnership deal with GomTV and the GSL. It appears that the winner of it's Korean Weekly finals at the end of the series will be automatically awarded a Code A spot. This is great news for ESV and Gom and it signals another step into GSL.
