This event takes place twice each weekend with both the KOTH Korea event on the KR server and KOTH International on the EU server. Each episode features exciting competitive players from GSL stars to underrated team practice heroes. Ladder points accrued for performing also contribute towards eventual offline events with much larger prizepools to be announced later in the year, and strong performances in the KOTH lead of course to potential invites to the $20,000 offline KOTH event. All invited competitors will play in order against the winner of the previous match. After all competitors have played, the player standing undefeated at the end will recieve $50 (USD), and the player with the longest win-streak of the night will recieve $200 (USD). The final match will be Best-of-Three. Ladder points for the event will also be awarded as below: + Show Spoiler [Ladder Points] +

Would certainly like to see more SEA player around, RedArchon, Cobo, Renson and Nirvana... They're all pretty solid, would love to see how would they do against the Koreans... i suppose all of them have Korean Account as well?... Hope to see them on next korean koth... =P

Uhen, MacSed and Loner are probably China's 3 best not named XiGua.

Final game is a Bo3 - so 2 or 3. Also if he wins he will be the first player in the next Korean KOTH.
|
Getting started in just a few minutes:
|
Pretty dumb all-in from jjakji...
|
LOL Jjakji.
TY Blizzard for immortal buff. So glad that these pushes are getting roflstomped now
|
jjaki had like no marines in that rush so he just got rolled.
|
|
That was so weird by Seal, spire, infestation pit and hydra den off two bases?

That was Sleep, not Seal.
|
oh whoops lol
Edit: That went pretty quick
|
|
well 1/1/1 on daybreak is a bad idea lol.
|
So nice seeing those 1-1-1's getting crushed more often now.
|
Damn cant wait to see oGsTheStC. Hope he can win some games
|
|
Vines just rolling through the opposition so far.
|
|
|
weird last game, pretty sure zerg was still ahead in supply when he gged.
|
Vines ladder on NA and custom games on KR?
|
|
Vines is playing really really well.
|
wow. Vines is just tearing it up!
|
Do you know the longest streak during one of these koths by chance?

BLAST|sYz holds the record with 11 wins in the FXOpen International KOTH #5
|
I hope VINES after that will be able to eliminate SuperNoVa in GSL!
|
Holy crap, how did VINES hold that?
|
Wow, Vines is really impressing right now.
|
|
Woah! Great play by vines. Awesome aggressive blinking
|
great decision-making and army control by vines. Really impressed by his play, almost everything thestc tried just got shut down by him and eventually his upgrades kicked in and well one starport vs 5collossi, we all know how that is going to end if you have better upgrades AND better composition. Great play nevertheless
|
Dt expand vs dt expand pvp. What in the hell did we just see?
|
Holy shit, absolutely brilliant crisis management by Vines there. Perfect example of how things go exactly the same way and in the end one player is just superior.
|
very impressed by Vines. Awesome decision making.

Makes me sad not many people seem to be watching on TL (or, at least, hardly any activity in the LR thread). This is a pretty cool event with good casting and entertaining games.

Yet we still have plenty of Code A and Code S players!
|
Sick players, sick quality, good casting, no lag and free... Much love for this :D
|
Love your casting guys! Also, very high quality of plays - I'm surprised how many good Ps are out there in Korea, Vines is preeetty good.
|
Watching Creator play PvZ is great. He rolled the team league PvT but not a lot of zergs thrown at him.
|
Seal's creep spread is sick, but he doesn't seem to have very good engagements and just gets rolled by a near-max Protoss army.
|
Final results:
► CreatorPrime wins the $50 prize for last man standing. ► oGsVINES wins the $200 prize for longest win streak at 9 wins.
Thanks to everyone for watching - see you next week!
|
nooooooo... I came too late! :-(
|
Oh man looks like Skyrim made me miss some sick games by Vines, gonna have to check out the VoD later for sure!
|
thanks for this event fxo, from all the regular weekly cups and non major events, this is actually the one i enjoy the most
|
