SORRY GUYS, NO CAST TONIGHT. I AM JUST SO TIRED AFTER WORK - GOING TO BED. THANKS!
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Friday, January 20th.
Well, some action heating up over in Kiev at IEM. The groups today were group C with Pomi, MMA, HasuObs, and TargA and group D with qxc, Dimaga, Hero, and Feast. In group C we had MMA and Pomi advancing. In group D we had Dimaga and Feast. This sets up a finals bracket of Dimaga vs. Pomi, White-Ra vs. Kas, Naniwa vs. Zenio, and Feast vs. MMA.
We also had day 2 in the NASTL with Mousesports taking on RoxKIS. In the matches we had Bigs over LiveZerg, Thorzain over Slivko, and Mana over Fraer to take the one-sided victory for Mouz 3-0.
Over in the GSL, we had group nominations for Code S ro16. The groups are as follows:
Group A: MVP, Gumiho, Curious, and aLive.
Group B: MMA, Oz, Puzzle, and SuperNova.
Group C: MC, Ganzi, Jjakji, and Parting, and finally
Group D with: NesTea, DRG, MarineKing, and Genius.
Look for Code S play to start back up come February 1st.
No other major announcements except that MLG has released more details on their upcoming Winter Season. There will be a 32-player tourney, called the "Winter Arena," to set up players for group and open bracket play for the upcoming MLG Columbus. Those 32-players will come from the top 8 of last year, and the top 8 from each of 3 qualifier tournaments. Then the top 8 from this Columbus event which they are calling the "Winter Championships" will advance to the Spring Arena which will choose players for presumably the next event which will be the Spring Championships.
The Qualifiers will take place between January 31st and February 8th. The Winter Arena will be Feb 24th-26th, then the Columbus Winter Championships will be March 23rd-25th. Look for even more details soon.
One last announcement comes from the recently reformed Team Light. They have recruited two new players in Stalife, formally of Complexity, and Golden who just left the Slayers Clan.
Well, that's about all the news that we have for you today. Don't miss any of the action, but if you do you can find it here the next morning at SC2NewSCast.com.

NewSCast for 19-Jan-12
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.

NewSCast for 11-Jan-12
Here we go again everyone. I am back after a long holiday season and so is the GSL. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, January 11th.
Well, we will start with the group play over in the GSL. We had the first couple of days in Code S play and so far our foreign hopes have all been dropped back down into Code A. On Monday we had Ganzi and Jjakji advancing, with Boxer taking 3rd, and Sen 4th. On Tuesday we had SuperNova and MC advancing, Leenock 3rd, and Fin 4th. Then on Wednesday we had NesTea and MVp advancing, Lucky 3rd, and Idra taking 4th.
For those that might have missed HomeStory Cup 4 over the past weekend, the finals bracket ro8 was Sound over Real 3-2, Violet over MarineKing 3-2, MC over Nerchio 3-0, and JYP over Dimaga 3-1. In the round of 4 we had Sound over Violet 3-2 and MC over JYP 3-2. This set up a finals where MC took the championship 4-0 over JYP. Good job everyone.
We are still awaiting word on the new Season of State of the Game. The rumor mill is running and it sounds as if MLG will be making their announcements on the first show of the year. JP has promised some kind of announcement tomorrow, so tune in then for more information.

NewSCast for 26-Oct-11
Here we go again everyone with the first post-BlizzCon StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, October 26th.
Well, the main bulk of action over the weekend was the Code A qualifiers in GSL November. They are still ongoing and GSL has said they are changing the format some for this season. Here is a list of some of the players that are qualified so far:
Symbol, InCa, Tassadar, Luvsic, GuineaPig, Cezanne, Creator, Vines, Fin (Formally ForGG), Revival, TheSTC, Soccer, JookTo, Boxer, and CrazyMoving, plus more.
Also today we had Week 6, Division 1 play in the NASL Season 2. The matches for today were White-Ra over Vibe 2-1, Hero over Sheth 2-1, and Fenix over Vibe 2-0. Not sure why the funky scheduling of matches today, but there they are.
In other news, Team Liquid has announced that they have a new sponsor in Twitch.tv, the ESPORTS streaming site. Good news there.
As for the new GSL format for this season, it is a bit too complicated to go over in full, but in the blog post I will add the new flow chart of players. Basically it addresses the need for more player turnover in the main tournament and seems to run the two concurrently, with the Code A acting almost like a lower bracket for the Code S to a certain point. Check it out.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, September 21st - NO CAST
NO PODCAST THIS WEEK
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Wednesday, September 21st.
Well, there was a ton of Code A and Code S action over the last few days leading up to tonight. We will go over the matches quickly:
Code A ro32: sC over Revival, Select over Alicia, Monster over MC, GuMiHo over Kyrix, YuGiHo over ShinyStar, Smart over JookTo, Curious over Sniper, Sjow over Maka, FruitDealer over Sase, Hero over Violet, Oz over Byun, SuperStar over Tassadar, Dream over Tester, Lucky over Naniwa, Check over Weekend, and finally Sage over Yoda.
In Code S we have had MVP, Clide, Ryung, Bomber, NesTea, MMA, asd, and Virus advancing. Ensnare, MarineKing, Huk, and Nada all retain, and Puzzle, Noblesse, Keen, and Zenio all fall to the Up and Down matches.
We also just tonight started the Code A ro16. The foreign hope Select was first up and he fell 2-0 to the might of sC. Next we had GuMiHo taking out Monster 2-0. To follow that up we had YuGiHo over Hero 2-1, and the final match was Sjow falling to Curious 2-0. This means that all foreigners has been eliminated from Code A.
Over in the NASL we had division 1, week 2 play. The results were Cruncher over Vibe 2-0, Hero over Fenix 2-0, Lowely over White-Ra 2-0, and DeMuslim over Sheth 2-0.
In other news, there was a contract snaffu between Millennium, Complexity, and the player Stephano. It appears that the end results of everything is that Stephano will remain with Millennium but have to pay a fine for breaking his newly signed contract with Complexity. All sides appear to have reached an agreement on this with Alex from EG as a negotiator. Good luck to all of them.
Speaking of Complexity though, they have announced their new player. It appears that they have reached an agreement with Naniwa, the very strong European Protoss fighting in Korea currently.
Also announced today is the merger of VpGamers and CheckSix gaming. VPs player roster has been acquired to form another up and coming North American team.
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.

Huk over Mana 2-1, Rain over Axslav 2-1, BratOK over Haypro 2-1. This means the division standings after 1 week or play are:
Huk 1-0
Rain 1-0
BratOK 1-0
Haypro 0-1
Axslav 0-1
Mana 0-1
I am not sure what is going on with the other two players in that group. Their match was postponed.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Friday, September 9th
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Friday, September 9th.
All eyes are on Korea today as GomTV hosted the GSL All-Star Tournament followed by the Code S Finals. In the All-Star game, each match was a bo1 with Mr. Chae and Engine "betting" points on each match up for fun. The results were Jinro over FruitDealer, Losira over MC, Boxer over July, MarineKing over MMA, and finally Huk over NesTea. When it was all said and done Engine won the little game over Mr. Chae 8-2.
This led into the great Code S finals between IM.MVP and oGs.TOP. This series just finished up right now and all I have to say is that you have to watch game 1. The overall score was nothing to be too surprised about as the great MVP took the series 4-1 over TOP in an amazing TvT series. Congrats on your third victory MVP!
Also released today are the players for the MLG Global Invitational. The regions being represented are North America, Korean, and Europe. First, the NA invites are Idra, Kiwikaki, Slush, Sheth, Tyler, Major, Destiny, and InControl. For Korea we have MMA, MVP, Losira, Boxer, Puma, Hero, Bomber, and Coca. The final group, the Europeans, will be represented by Naniwa, Sjow, Ret, Haypro, Thorzain, White-Ra, Jinro, and Sase. Many players including Select, NesTea, and Huk were also invited, but all declined. The matches will start on September 13th with English casting by none other than Artosis and JP McDaniel, so make sure to tune into those games.
Well, that's about all the news that we have for you today. Don't miss any of the action, but if you do you can find it here the next morning at SC2NewSCast.com.

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.
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.
