It's a tiny town. 75K total population. Streets feel deserted in places like this after 7 pm.
There is some twitter negociation going on, someone is offering help. Someone who has on his twitter a picture of a heart-shaped cake with "ST Life" written on it. For some reason that looks creepy as hell :D

I find it creepy that not everyone has a picture of a heart-shaped Life cake

Germany doesn't have taxis ?
They have tiger tanks. Taxis can get fucked.
With GoOdy as the pilot ? Seems good.
German mech clearly OP, though Russian bio seems to beat it.
I wonder if MMA plays so greedily because he feels that his overall play cannot match up to other players, or if he feels he has amazing mind tricks. It seems to be hurting his results?

How do you not have this kind of thing planned out beforehand... having to panic trying to find an internet cafe before your match for a tournament which could potentially get you thousands of dollars is just pathetic.

And not knowing that your hotel do'esn't have a cabled internet is weird too.

Playing on wireless would suck pretty hard though.
Btw did MMA use the same TvP strat he killed 2 Protoss at DHW on Yeonsu (early stim+medivacs off like 1.5 bases)? Cant watch the games , fml
It was a weird game, action-packed and full of fun. Early stargate harass into a minor base trade (double drop vs. zealot-templar timing), into stabilization. MMA's 3rd base really won it for him though

Thank you. Too bad though, I wanted to see that strat again, thought he might have figured something out in TvP (atleast on Yeonsu)

Polt should just go full yolo and parade push his ass. Should come as a surprise at least.

San vs MMA is played first because Life couldn't find a computer (and still can't). He'll be replaced by INnoVation who was 3rd in the group.
so basically life loses to computer, robot plays instead? not sure I like that
Pretty sure I hate it, actually
if Innovation wins this tournament I'll subscribe to his antifan club
It wouldn't be Innovation's fault. If any is to blame, you have to blame Life's manager for not preparing for this. That's the Startale manager's job.
I don't really care whose fault it is, if someone wins a tournament after replacing a player in the later stages, I'll always feel like that victory is at least somewhat undeserved. I'd feel the same if Life got to replace someone in the Ro8+ of a tournament because the original player forfeit.
But yeah, Coach Kim is a nice guy but not exactly the most reliable when it comes to things like these. He had issues with booking tickets to the airport after Dreamhack, as well.

It'd be pretty sweet to watch two parade-pushes parade push into each other.

None of the players prepared for each other...
Yes i literally said it in my post too, that doesn't change the fact that this solution is meh

Well its just one of those situations. What else can you do? Move it to another day when Polt has made time for it today isnt acceptable when the fault lies with Life. This is right decision imo.

I think it would be better to give polt a by, i don't think innovation deserves this second chance here. Not that innovation isn't good enough , but he was out, if anything polt should get the win if life can't play.

Im guessing it goes against the spirit of the tournament because its about getting awesome players to play against eachother thats what the viewers have been promised or are expecting.

Yeah i understand WHY they do this, but as i said, it feels weird, at least for me.
MMA: Hey Bogus, remember that tournament you got knocked out of? Life is in Antarctica or something and doesn't have a computer. Wanna play Polt? Bogus: Uh, sure...
Really really sad that Life is not playing...on top of it all I think it is ridiculous that Polt has been knocked out by a player who was knocked out in the group stages and thus has no right to be there. If nothing could be done for Life, at least Polt should have got a bye.

Well, it was either lose to Innovation or be embarrassed by Life ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Polt got an easier opponent so stop crying... It is bad that he may be practicing TvZ but has to play TvT in this case it is a bit unfair and if Polt was really hard practicing then it is very unfair though.
