The broodwar scene is constantly changing. A few short years ago, liquibition featured former greats such as ret, elky, and smuft. With these players a fading memory, and the liquibition title vacant, we turn to the next generation of players to show us some great games.
The next chapter of the liquibition saga features two American stars, currently in good form and training to compete in their upcoming WCG. There is a good chance these players will meet in the final tournament, so we here at TeamLiquid decided to set up a little preview of what is to come. I present to you Liquibition: Civil War.
IdrA vs iNControl
This weekend these two players will faceoff in a best-of-seven series to decide the early favorite heading into the WCG USA finals.
Maps
Game 1: Tau Cross
Game 2: Loki
Game 3: Python
Game 4: Monty Hall
Game 5: Fantasy
Game 6: Hitchiker
Game 7: Peaks of Baekdu
Denizen of the TL.net boards, iNControl is an experienced zerg player who first made his mark in another TeamLiquid event, TLT2. Since joining ToT, he has performed well in clan wars and never has a shortage of things to say. Lets get a few words...
- Name, age, sexual orientation (or race, whatever you prefer):
Geoff, 21, zerg
- Length of time on TL.net:
4 years now
- Times banned on TL.net:
1 perm several temp w00t
- Major accomplishments in BW:
4th TLT2, won a wcg preliminary came in second in another small tourney wins, ToT etc
- Favorite unit in ZvT:
Ultra
- Favorite ability in ZvT:
Hold lurkers
- Favorite pro player, and why:
Silver. Love his hydralisk micro early on editors note - this guy won a liquibet season and likes silver? blech.
- Best up and coming foreign player for each race, and why:
Terran - IdrA. Has amazing talent and is able to train with the best. If he didn't have a stick up his ass he'd go for miles. Zerg - Whistler. This guy has made me a believer, really nice player. Protoss - Iefnaij. Came from 88 and is now recognized as one of the best, at 14.
- Player who will take a game from a Korean in WCG:
Testie
- Player who will puke at a WCG party:
Me
- If you could have one player play a game of BW for your life, who would it be:
Savior (irony?)
- Chicken or Beef:
I dunno I eat as much as small countries of both
- Any shit talk about foreign Terran players:
They all blow TvP and have attitude problems as a rule
- Liquibition should be worth ___ liquibet points.
Liquibition should be worth 7 liquibet points.
- The last word is yours:
Greg will fit in my backpack.
 Idra is currently the highest ranked US player in GG.net's Player Database. He plays with clan Media and is also an outspoken participant on TeamLiquid. He is well known for his good strategy advice on the boards, and close friendship with Rekrul. IdrA, if you please...
- Name, age, sexual orientation (or race, whatever you prefer):
Greg Fields, 18, terran
- Length of time on TL.net:
3 years, 27 days
- Times banned on TL.net:
once
- Major accomplishments in BW:
winning one of the bw4ever tournaments, qualifying for wcg usa this year, wins/qualifications for other minor tournaments that aren't really worth noting(and that I've forgotten)
- Favorite unit in TvZ:
Marine
- Favorite ability in TvZ:
Irradiate
- Favorite pro player, and why:
Nada, if nothing else for his accomplishments, 6 starleagues over such a long time frame is absolutely incredible. His gameplay itself is amazing too, the perfect mechanics and the ability to make his own unique playstyle work.
- Best up and coming foreign player for each race, and why:
Kind of hard to say since there are alot of people starting to pop up but no one who's really distinguished themselves.
For zerg I might say ut)maix, hes been around for a long time but hasn't done much yet. He swept his wcg and his zvt impresses me more than some well known zergs.
All the new players are toss right now so its hard to pick one, ill say iefnaij since hes just started getting real attention. He plays very smart and is quite young so he has potential.
as far as i know there are no up and coming terrans.
- Player who will take a game from a Korean in WCG:
Well, Testie has done it in each of the last 3 years, so he seems a good bet.
- Player who will puke at a WCG party:
Tasteless, assuming he goes (which he'd better)
- If you could have one player play a game of BW for your life, who would it be:
Nada
- Chicken or Beef:
Beef
- Any shit talk about foreign Zerg players:
They might want to try learning how to use defilers properly sometime.
- Liquibition should be worth ___ liquibet points.
9, its definitely more important than osl finals.
- The last word is yours:
Thanks alot for inviting me to a showmatch with such a prestigious history. Hope we'll produce fun, entertaining games.
