Ro.8 Match3: Light vs Rush

[@estebancantero4751]

Been waiting all week for this! Let's GOOOO!!

[@woelfingskund]

Finally a new ASL match! God bless AfreecaTV and Tastosis! :)

[@t.jimmetokur4861]

** SPOILER ** That was an epic best of five! I was on the edge of my seat, cheering for Rush. I thought for sure Light would defeat Rush, because Light was so powerful during the first couple of games. So happy for Rush.

[@MeteoImpact3374]

I feel like a certain audience member was also very happy for Rush; and for himself going forward in the tournament xD

[@dew9103]

banger of a series for sure

[@RollinLeonard]

god damn star craft is a good game to watch

[@Daren_PNW]

god _damn_ you so right

[@WisecrackJax]

Still a gorgeous game inside and out after all these years. Blizzard couldn’t have fallen much harder than they have…

[@michaelbird9148]

Light's early game builds were so often a step behind. He was able to get back into strong positions later on, but it was usually from behind. Some great games all around!

[@dhenn4848]

Alright about time...

[@ddublu]

6 seconds ago? asl-worthy breakfast timing. my favorite nerds at it again.

[@thalanoth]

wierd just as I was about to watch the next match it got privated lol

[@DokkyDok]

Snow vs Hero also got uploaded with this, but now it's been moved to private? Are they being deliberately spaced apart for the algorithm or something? If so, would suck to know this is getting pushed back even further just to boost a video's engagement numbers. It's already been delayed enough.

[@g22sda83]

I saw it right now and the results got spoiled right at the start of the video, maybe thats why they removed it.

Again I'm confused why you would go to the only place for discussion of the game before watching said game. Anyways, I too don't like spoilers in comments, that aren't properly marked.

I guess this competition is for the best Terran player except Flash

[@jacobunderwood4957]

Put Flash in with his current form, don't think it'd make a difference. Looking forward to see him come back, but that's not a switch-flick event.

[@onetothreegosevenatenine2948]

Why are these vids coming in so late?

[@estebancantero4751]

I think it's because of the translation to everything and keep in mind that Artosis was travelling from CN to KR for his last season of GSL! I don't care that much if they're late, I just want this to continue

[@majormononoke8958]

[@49Chevy]

Light for Terran yes. I feel like Mini is the more of the Protoss's Protoss than Rain. Not sure who for Zerg, maybe Queen, but Soulkey is too macro-oriented for me to say its him.

Ty

[@user-ro2nn7lt3r]

AWESOME! But why did you guys take down Snow vs Hero ? I was looking forward to that all day after this long TvT ...

[@RecentlyDreaming]

The match they uploaded had a graphic with spoilers for the entire round of 8. So I wouldn’t be upset about it hshs

[@AwonDanag]

Managed to get it while it was still up. It's the last match of the round so it has pretty much nothing to do with round results... maybe it was accidentally/prematurely released? They had to schedule these releases after all.

[@RecentlyDreaming]

@@AwonDanag it included the hero vs snow match

[@AwonDanag]

@@RecentlyDreaming Yes I'm talking about that vid. It was the last match of the round anyway so naturally they're gonna recap the entire ro8 at the end. (Unless I've misunderstood you)

[@RecentlyDreaming]

@@AwonDanag I mean 3 minutes into the hero vs snow there was a graphic of the entire round of eight. Including the hero vs snow mstch that hasn’t started yet. Since it was released at the same time as Rush Vs. Light it’s likely people brushed past the tvt and immediately went to hero. Which meant the result for the tvt was also spoiled.

[@TheStalin69]

Scan's video for the 3rd place match got recommended to me while i was watching this video, spoiling the entire series. It is ridiculous how late these videos are.

[@l4unchp4dgaming38]

Speechless.

[@pointlessmanatee]

I love ASL

[@MJHarris93]

So hyped for this! The balance of sound is definitely off - the ingame music is so loud in comparison to Artosis' mic it's hard to hear him at times

[@abstractdaddy1384]

I didn't notice this at all.

[@MaxGoedecke]

I also think it is fine, 2 times there was a very loud sneeze or something like that from Tasteless. I think it could be turned off easily via quick automation after capture.

[@drewwalbeck6006]

Woooo ASL!

[@altonslayer]

Woo

[@Genemesis]

Lol. They removed Snow vs Hero video which I believe they failed to make private. Deliberately delaying uploads...

[@Byzantinesrock]

No, the bracket graphic spoiled who won in the first few minutes and they presumably needed to fix that.

[@jacobunderwood4957]

Yo, the translations are cool and all; I definitely don't intend to shit on that effort... but IMO it's not worth the delay. I'd be 100% with trimming the between-game content and getting these uploads out closer to the event.

[@abstractdaddy1384]

That's not what's delaying it. They to have wait multiple days sometimes for Afreeca to give them the clean vod and then they also wait for them to upload the video after they give it them. Afreeca literally will have the video and not upload it because they don't want to put it out at the same time as GSL. The extra time for translations and graphics is just one piece of the puzzle.

[@jacobunderwood4957]

@@abstractdaddy1384 It is a piece, though, so you can't say "that's not what's delaying it". I'd be cool with this delay not being involved is what I'm saying. Seeing a Korean pro roll some dice and talk about their personal life... I just don't really care about that. I often don't sit and read every line of the translation, anyway. /shrug

[@jacobunderwood4957]

@@abstractdaddy1384 They literally just uploaded ASL and GSL within like 7 hours of each other today. There was a previous video where Tasteless specifically said that the translations were the delay cause... Yeah, I'm gunna have to assign you an L on this one all around.

[@abstractdaddy1384]

@@jacobunderwood4957 To counter your "tasteless said..", I've heard Artosis multiple times on his stream answer questions about when the next asl video is coming and he said, Afreeca has it, they just need to load it. My point is that removing the translations is not going to make as big of a difference as you think. The only video where the translations really slowed things down was for the group selection, which they've discussed possibly completing that on its own timetable rather than holding everything else up.

[@jacobunderwood4957]

@@abstractdaddy1384 I've not represented how much of a difference I think it would make. It it's any difference, my point stands. I'm not wrong, any delay isn't worth it and the translation delay isn't insignificant, you can feel how you want about that.

Only problem with TvT is the casters have to talk over the Terran themes. Like if you talk over the build in Terran 2 while we're driving down the highway, I will eject you from the car at 80 MPH.

What's even more important than keep SC2 alive, is keeping these two together and keeping the Casting Archon alive! Listen and think about this for a minute. Where else other than here will we be able to see these two bring us game after game of some of the best starcraft 2 in the world (as artosis) would say. But we all know that the truth of the matter is that we're all really here because cast after cast they bring us some of the best LIVE commentary ever to be being done anywhere, across any industry. Support them here and now because there is no where else. Understand? Nowhere else. We've followed them and their journey most of their lives. We love them because somehow, they were able to bring us along the ride with them. When they needed us the most, what did we do? No, what did YOU do? How will the end to that story that we're all a part of unfold the day that its finally told? Get your wallets out, bitches!!!

[@jacobunderwood4957]

Give them props, sure. You don't have to shit on SC (BW or 2) while doing it. Regardless of how great they are, I can't bring myself to watch their Valorant. So... no, my guy. Keep SC alive. Maybe there's a future point where we can all migrate together. Until then, SC is the thing. Our shared love of the game makes this great moreso than these two having good humor and chemistry IMO.
