Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Wednesday, January 25th.
Well, I apologize for the lack of an Edit this week. Our show sort of fell apart on scheduling issues. If you missed that, please follow us on Facebook and Twitter for updates about those shows. As for now though, with the lack of GSL this week, the results are a bit scant, so we will be covering news today.
First we had the announcement that Axslav, formally of EG has signed with his new team, Reign, bolstering their lineup which already has players like Slush, Kiwikaki, and Inori. Also in team news, the smaller teams of "Icons of Vanity" and "Metagaming" have merged their rosters.
One Nation of Gamers, a network of BarCrafts throughout the US, has announced their new online invitational. The line up features top players such as Stephano, Tyler, Sheth, Kas, Destiny, Sase, and Machine and will be casted by Mr. Bitter. Tune in to twitch.tv/onenationofgamers this weekend for those matches.
IPL4 has announced two online qualifiers on February 11th and 18th for spots in the upcoming IPL4 live event. Also, the ASUS ROG Winter 2012 tourney has announced more of their invites including players such as Jinro, Kas, TLO, Stephano, and Hero. That tourney takes place February 25th and 26th, so be sure to check that out.
The last night of news to talk about is coming from Blizzard who has announced that they will not be holding BlizzCon this year, but instead will be putting together a major event called the 2012 Battle.net World Championships. This will be a 4-tiered system to create something like a "World Cup" type of atmosphere. The idea will be to have locals, nationals, continentals, then the World Championships. They have stated that whenever Heart of the Swarm comes out, they will maintain this year's contest on Wings of Liberty.
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 14-Jan-11
Here we go again everyone. I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Saturday, January 14th.
Again, not a ton of action or news today, but a few things of note: The NASTL, North American Star Team League is prepping for the upcoming NASL Season. So far the invited teams for that are Empire, EG, Mouz, and Liquid. They recently held their first qualifiers where FXO and Reign have won spots. The second qualifier is going on this weekend, so we will know the final two spots very soon.
In other news, the zerg hero Liquid'Haypro has landed at the oGs house in Korea for extended practice and stay. During the interview on teamliquid.net Haypro has stated that he has been wanting to go back for awhile and plans on being there at least 6 months for training. This means that Jinro, Haypro, Zenio, and Hero are all there and TL has been hinting that there may be more announcements in this vein incoming. The word on the street is that TLO has been interesting in heading back. Currently 4 of the 8 players of TL are in Korea training.
TSL, The SCV Life, has announced a new player in Cyrano, a protoss that has not really been seen since GSL Open 3. TSL has been struggling since losing a bunch of players to other teams as of late.

StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Saturday, July 23rd
Hello everyone, I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Saturday, July 23rd.
We will start today with IPL Season 2, Day 7 play. Today we have winner's bracket action as the first match was EG.Idra taking on coL.Minigun. Idra takes the series 2-1. The second match was FXO.Moonan taking down sixjax.Vibe 2-1. The third match of the night was Thorzain tearing through Socke 2-1 and the final match of the night was mouz.Mana tearing apart Fnatic.Fenix 2-1.
Also today we had the Grubby StarCraft Series invitational featuring a ton of pro players in a 1-day pounding of a tourney. The winner today was Sase taking the final series from Kas 2-0. Third and fourth place were Tarson and Stephano. Congrats to Sase and Kas for taking this tourney.
In team news we have the announcement that Phoenix has left team Reign. Now, this is not FnaticFenix, this is Phoenix, the Korean player formally of Werra who was said to be on team Reign with Kiwikaki and Slush. There is some controversy as he is claiming broken promises but the team is claiming that he was making demands over his agreed upon contract.
