StarCraft 2 NewSCast for Friday, August 12th

Here we go again everyone.  I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Friday, August 12th.

Well, let's start today with GSTL from early this morning.  The teams were FXOKorea (formally fou) taking on ZeNEX in a bo7 matchup.  Here is the run down from those exciting games:
Hack over Gumiho, Leenock over Hack, Puzzle over Leenock and asd, then we had TheBest tear through Puzzle, Line, and Coco to take the victory for ZeNEX 4-3.

Also today we had the Battle.net NA invitational.  I will give you a complete list of scores:
Winner's Round 1: Huk over Ostojiy 2-0, Select over TT1 2-0, Sheth over Kiwikaki 2-0, and Idra over DDE 2-0.
Winner's Round 2: Select over Huk 2-0 and Sheth over Idra 2-0.
Loser's Round 1: TT1 over Ostojiy 2-0 and Kiwikaki over DDE 2-1.
The rest of the matches will be played tomorrow in that tourney.

Also today we had some more Loser's bracket action in the IPL Season 2.  First we had Thorzain taking on Strelok in a bo5.  Strelok fights hard, but falls to the might of Thorzain 3-1.  The next match was Idra taking on Nerchio.  Lately Nerchio has been winning everything and today was no different as he took down Idra 3-0.  This set up a Loser's Bracket match between Thorzain and Nerchio and the winner of that matchup was Nerchio, looking unbeatable.

In player news, the Aussie Moonglade has been released from FXO citing that their long-term plan no longer coincided.  Good luck to him in the future.

Also announced this weekend is another episode of TL Attack and this time it will be featuring the Grandpa Toss White-Ra.  Tune into teamliquid.net on Sunday at 11:00AM PST for those games.

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, July 15th

Hello again everyone.  I am TheAmazombie and this is your StarCraft 2 NewS Cast for Friday, July 15th.

Well, we will start with the GSTL from early this morning.  I went over the results from the FXO match on yesterdays, but if you missed it FXOpen fell to Fou with QXC taking a game.  The other match of the night was Zenex taking on StarTale.  The first game was Byun over Sound, then he took the game off of Curious.  StarTale then took the next game with Ace, who then fell in game 4 to Line.  This brought out Bomber to take the next 3 games.  StarTale takes the series 4-3.

We also had day 2 of the IPL today.  The first match was Thorzain over Axslav 2-1.  Next we had Socke go 2-1 over Destiny.  The third match was Mana 2-0 over DarkForce, and the final match was DDE falling to Fenix 2-1.

In other news, we have another episode of TL attack this weekend.  The featured player this time is none other than the Lord of the Lings Fnatic.Sen.  Tune into teamliquid.net on Sunday for those games.

Also, in a big story it appears the the former BW player ForGG is apparently playing SC2 under the name Raptor.  This was outed by LiquidHuk on his stream.  This is by far one of the most top-rated SC1 players to come over to SC2 other than Nada and July who were not in top form for many years now.  This could be quite exciting.

In other player news, Kiwikaki, Jonathan Garneau, has been playing in the WSOP Main Event and his table was featured on ESPN2 today. He did last out the day, but his chip stack is getting a bit low.  He is in the money though at 30 grand I believe for sure.  Good luck to him on tomorrow!

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, July 1st 2011

Here we go, the start of Month 3 for the SC2 NewS Cast.  I am TheAmazombie and we will get down to it:

We will start with the GSTL from last night as it was still going on.  First, as covered yesterday was the all-kill from Zenex over FXOpen.  Next was Fou taking on Hosea.  Not quite an all-kill, but almost.  First was Sirius taking game 1 over Scalp.  Then Sage came in and took game 2 from Sirius, game 3 from asd, game 4 from SC, and game 5 from Leenock.  Hoseo wins 4-1.

We also have the ro8 set in the NASL Season 2 Qualifier.  The final matchups are listed as AllAboutYou vs. SCFou, Polt vs. MarineKing, Vines vs. Hero, and CheckPoo vs. Top, all Koreans.  This means that the open winner was Korean and the season 2 qualifier will be Korean.  As the top 4 players receive an invite to season 2, and the spots 5-8 receive a waiting list spot, this means there could potentially be 8 more Korean players for season 2.

In other news from today, we had the announcement that for MLG Anaheim coming up in a few weeks the GSL will be sending MMA to defend his title as well as the Emperor himself, SlayersBoxer.  This was to be expected as Boxer has to come to California for the NASL finals as well.  The other players they are sending have not been announced as of yet.

Coming up this weekend over at TeamLiquid.net we have TL Open #18 on Saturday.  They also just announced another episode of TL Attack for Sunday featuring another fun player in dignitas.Naniwa.  That should be a good time so tune in there for a chance to play with Naniwa.

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.
