Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Sunday, December 5th.
Well, the main news for today was over at the finals of the NASL. First we had the 3rd place match between Sen and Thorzain. In a back and forth series, Sen took the 3rd place crown with a win over Thorzain 4-2. This set up the finals rematch between Liquid'Hero and EG.Puma. While these two met in the finals of DreamHack just a week ago with Hero coming out on top, this time it was not to be as reigning NASL champion Puma showed why he is one of the best Terrans in the world as he took down Hero 4-2.
The only other real news of the night is that the GSL Code A ro24 day 1 has just finished. The results were Parting over SangHo 2-1, Happy over Cezanne 2-0, MC over Bomber 2-0, and Brown over Losira 2-0. Be sure to tune in to GSL tonight as the matches are going to be asd vs. NesTea, July vs. Fin, Lucky vs. Ganzi, and DRG vs. Taeja.
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 3-Dec-11
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Saturday, December 3rd.
Well, we are all decompressing after that amazing series between Jjakji and Leenock last night to crown the new GSL Code S Champion. If you missed it, you have to watch that series. It is well worth the ticket price by itself.
Now that Code S is done, all eyes are on the NASL Season 2 Finals going on this weekend. In the ro8 matches from today we had Hero over HasuObs 3-0, Sen over BratOK 3-1, Thorzain over Morrow 3-1, and finally Puma over Idra 3-0. Then, in the first semifinals match we had Sen failing to find any answer to Hero as Hero advances to the finals with the 4-0 victory. In the last match of the day we had Thorzain falling to the pervious champion Puma 4-2, setting up a finals rematch from DreamHack Winter with EG.Puma taking on Liquid'Hero.

NewSCast for 26-Nov-11
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Saturday, November 26th, the final day of DreamHack Winter.
Well, we will start today with that awesome event that was DreamHack Winter European Championships. I recorded yesterday's cast right after the ro16 finished, so today we will start with the action from the ro8. The first matchup was NightEnd over Naama 2-1, ending the possibility of a rematch from last year. Then we had Puma over DRG 2-1, Hero over Seiplo 2-0, and Ret over Nerchio 2-0. This set up another Team Liquid team-kill situation, which they always seem to get themselves in as Hero took down Ret 3-1 in the semifinals. The other match was Puma over NightEnd 3-1 setting up what became an absolutely epic bo7 between Liquid's Hero and EG's Puma.
While the teams have a long and storied rivalry, many time with EG coming out on top, this was not to be the day as Puma took game 1, then Hero surged back taking the next 3. Puma was not done though as he took games 5 and 6 to tie up the series heading into an awesome back and forth on Antiga Shipyard. As evenly matched as they were, Hero finally took the commanding lead and with manner Nexus abound, Liquid'Hero is your 2011 DreamHack European Champion.
Now Hero and Puma are prepping themselves for NASL Season 2 Grandfinals coming up next weekend. With this win Hero has also qualified for GomTV's Blizzard Cup next month. Good luck Hero!
Well, speaking of the NASL, the other action for today were more matches in the Season 2 Playoffs to see who will be at the finals this coming weekend. The matches today were NightEnd over QXC 2-0 and Sheth over Sjow 2-1 setting up the match where Sheth took the matches 2-1 over NightEnd to advance to the finals.
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.

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.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Saturday, September 3rd
Here we go again everyone, I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Saturday, September 3rd.
Well, we some exciting action today. First, early in the morning, we had the first day of GSL Oct. Code A Qualifiers. I talked about these quickly last night, but here is a rundown of all of the finals so far:
MVP.Dream over ZeNEX.Hack 2-1, NSHoseo.Sage over ST.Ace 2-1, Liquid'Hero over MVP.GuineaPig 2-0, FXOz over SlayersBoxer 2-0, TSL.Revival over Replica 2-1, and finally oGs.JookTo over IM.Ready 2-0.
The second day of qualifiers just finished up. The qualifier finals matches were ST.Curious taking the match over oGs.Cezanne 2-0, MVP.Monster over oGs.Illusion 2-1, lOvShinyStar over MVP.Won 2-1, FXO.Weekend over ST.KingKong 2-0, FXO.GuMiHo over oGs.TheSTC 2-0, and the final match is still ongoing as I record this between Seed and Superstar.
Add in that Naniwa, Sjow, Select, and Sase are in it and we have a great outlook to Code A.
Also today we had the TL TeamSpeak Open #22. With an interesting quarterfinals match where Idra faced Nerchio and forfeited after one game, Nerchio went on to take the tournament 3-2 over ZeNEX.Young. The third place went to Attero.
In other news, the strong German caster Khaldor has been offered and accepted a job in Korea as one of the Code A casters. Congrats to Khaldor for all his hard work and effort he has put into the community.
Speaking of Korea, we have some other player news. It seems that the Terran player Dignitas.Select will be heading their soon to join up with his teammates Naniwa and Sjow to train and practice for Code A. I can't wait to see Select in action over in Korea. Also being talked about right now is a comment from the German Zerg Darkforce that he is thinking about heading over to Korea to train as he is already going their for WCG. I hope it all works out for him.
Also just announced is that Major was just released from Sixjax gaming. This was too be expected as Major is both known for his extremely strong play and his extremely strong attitude issues. We will see if any other team will take him up being the liability that he is.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, August 10th
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Wednesday, August 10th.
The first big news of the weekend is the announcement of another recruit to Team Liquid. This time it is the Korean player Hero, formally of oGs. Liquid'Hero is a very strong Code A Protoss player with a Brood War background who once wore the nickname of Little Bisu. Congrats to Liquid and we cannot wait to see him in action at MLG.
Well, first and foremost in tourney results we had GSL Code A and Code S action early this morning. Today was the last day in Code A round of 32. It was the much talked about Sweden vs. Korea day. The foreigners fought bravely, but all of them fell to the might of Korea as Jinro lost to Lucky 2-0, Thorzain fell to YuGiHo 2-1, Sase fell to Sniper 2-0, and Naniwa fell to Check 2-0. Late tonight there was the first Code A ro16 matches with Ganzi taking out Fruitdealer 2-0, Taeja looking strong in his match as he took down sC 2-0. Next we had the upset as JYP beat DRG 2-1, and finally we had Tassadar fall to Yoda 2-1.
Also we had day 2 in the GSL Code S rounds. Here is the rundown:
Coco over Keen, Nada over Alicia, Coco over Nada, Keen over Alicia, and Keen over Coco. The results are Nada and Keen advancing, Coco remaining Code S, and Alicia falling to the up and down matches.
Also, a bonus, just finishing right now was F. United in the team leagues taking on MVP. Here is a rundown:
Fenix falls to Nalza, Thorzain comes in and owns on Nalza, GuineaPig, and Noblesse. He then falls to Genius who also takes out Soccer. This brings in Naniwa for the ace match. Nani takes it for the foreigners! Congrats to F. United!
In other news it was announced that WarCraft 3 legend Grubby now in SC2 will be playing a showmatch with Liquid's TLO in both StarCraft 2 and WarCraft 3. The WC will be a bo5 with the SC being a bo7 matchup. These will take place on this coming Sunday and the winner will gain bragging rights.
Also in other team news, Team Reign featuring players like Slush ad Kiwikaki have added 2 new members. They are Artist (formally of fou) and gix formally of VT gaming. Good luck to all of them and the new teams.
