Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Friday, August 19th.
Well, let's start off with the GSTL action from early Friday morning. First we had NSHoSeo taking on IM. There was plenty of fireworks and BM leading up to a 4-1 victory for IM. Sage took game 1 against Happy. Then Losira came in to take the series from Sage, Tassadar, Jjakji, and Shuttle.
Next we had our heroes F. United fighting hard against TSL. I did get to see this match as F. United fought very hard, but in the end fell to the might of TSL. We had Heart over Naniwa, Fenix over Heart and Clide, then Revival over Fenix and Lyn. This brought in Thorzain who took out Revival to set up the ace match against aLive. In a weird and exciting game, Thorzain could not stand up and TSL took the series 4-3.
Also today we have the ro8 play in the championship brackets over at IEM GamesCon. First we had Socke over Kas 3-1. Next was Puma over Nerchio 3-0. Following that up was MC over Select 3-0. The final match was Mana over Moonglade 3-1. This sets up a semis for tomorrow with MC vs. Mana and Puma vs. Socke.
Also, in other news, it was announced that Team Dignitas is sending their very strong Terran player Sjow over to Korea to be with his teammate Naniwa. I can not wait to see Sjow after spending some time over there.
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.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Friday, August 5th
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Friday, August 5th.
Well, let's start off with an overview of the much anticipated Boxer/Yellow show match from last night. It was a fun event overall with interviews and more. Yellow started off admitting that he had only played for a couple of weeks and was currently in the Gold League. Boxer announced that this was for fun and he would play a round a lot. There was a ton of conversation between the two old rivals. Boxer took game 1 on XC, and yes, there were plenty of bunkers including Boxer attempting to created the legendary "Bunker Transporter" on the map. Game 2 was on Shattered with Yellow taking that game with repeated Roach drops. The final game was Boxer taking the series on Tal'Darim. It was fun to watch and Yellow said that it meant a lot to him to be there with Boxer in a huge event with tons of fans in attendance. I hope to see Yellow in the SC2 scene more in some capacity or another. Congrats to eSports on this event.
In Europe, we also had the Championship brackets in Assembly Summer 2011. I will give you a run down of each round:
Ro16:
Dimaga over TLO, BratOK over Sarens, Sjow over Bischu, elfi over Jimpo, Seiplo over Kas, Stephano over Sen, Mana over Nada, and Morrow over Welmu.
Ro8:
Dimaga over Elfi, Stephano over Seiplo, Mana over Sjow, and BratOK over Morrow.
Semis:
Dimaga over Stephano 3-2 and Mana over BratOK 3-1.
Bronze match was Stephano over BratOK 3-0.
In the finals we had Dimaga taking the tourney over Mana in an exciting 3-2 victory. Congrats to Dimaga.
Also last night we had Venus action in the GSTL. The teams were IM vs. StarTale and here is the rundown:
Bomber over MVP, then over Happy, then over Losira, and finally losing to Younghwa. This brought out Curious to take the series for StarTale 4-1.
We also had IPL Season 2 action. This was more Loser's Bracket play. The matches today were Drewbie, who has been looking stronger as of late, over Tarson 2-0. The next match up was Lalush taking down BratOK 2-0. The third match up of the night was another 2-0 as Nerchio beat Vibe and the final match was 2-1 Ret over Fenix. All losers are eliminated.
In other news it was announced today that the Russian player BratOK will be joining a new team. His new home is going to be imba.FXO and he will now be team mates with another strong Terran, Strelok. imba.FXO seems to keep getting stronger and stronger line ups.
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.
