NewSCast for 9-Oct-11

Here we go again everyone.  I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Sunday, October 9th.

First off, of course, was Championship Sunday over in IPL3.  It turns out that today White-Dudes owned Korea as Stephano, the strong French Zerg took down Lucky 4-0 to take home the 30 Grand and his first major LAN victory.  Third and fourth place when to MMA and TheSTC with Ret, Puma, Idra, and Inori rounding out the top 8.

Our other main action of today was the NASL Week 4, Division 5 play.  The maps for today were Dual Sight, Bel'Shir Beach, and The Shattered Temple.  The first match was Dimaga taking down QXC 2-0.  Next we had Puma over Tyler 2-0 and the final two matches were TT1 over HasuObs 2-1 and TLO over Moman 2-1.  The division standings are:
Dimaga 3-0, Puma 3-0, QXC 3-1, TT1 3-1, HasuObs 2-2, TLO 1-3, Moman 0-4, and Tyler 0-4.

Well, in others news there was a post by Destiny stating that he is joining a team finally, but no hint as to which team that will be as of yet.  Other than that, the GSL Code A finals are about to start shortly after I am recording this, so be sure to check those out and see who will get a free trip to Code S.  The players are Curious vs. Oz.

Well, that's about all 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 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.
