Post Game
Game 1:
The first game of the series saw both players opening up pretty standard with Spanishwa actually building Roaches (he does not often use them). Spades started off with some marine marauder mix, and transitioned into siege tanks. Seeing this oppourtunity, Spanishiwa morphed a couple of broodlords, and with nothing to defend it, Spades threw in the hat.
Game 2: The second game started off with some excellent marine harassment by Spades, picking off a couple of Overlords. He then proceeded to decimate Spanishiwa’s mineral line with a drop of four blue flame Hellions into his base. Spanishiwa then retaliated by upgrading to infestors and sending them burrowed to Spades’ natural expansion. Some well placed Fungal Growths managed to take out a lot of Spades’ mineral line. With a massive amount of zerglings, and a couple of brood lords, Spanishiwa takes game two.
Game 3: The third game saw a fast expand from both players. Spades was able to wall off the only path to his main and natural expansion using three barracks. Because of his wall, he was able to double expand for the extra resources. Spanishiwa took the only route he found at that moment – A good old fashioned baneling bust. Although he was able to break through the defences of Spades, he was unable to defend against the counter attack as blue flame hellions were able to incinerate his resource income. The third game goes to VTSpades.
Game 4: The fourth game saw Spades building two forward Barracks for an extremely offensive play. With an excellent scouting move by Spanishwa, he was able to kill one of the SCVs building the barracks. Realizing that Spade’s plan did not work, Spanishiwa quickly attacked Spades base, making Spades lose some precious mining time. After a long mid game of upgrades and macro, Spades decided to push out with a full food count. Although he had the unit advantage, Spanishiwa had the upgrade advantage and was able to defend the attack, and win the game with a massive counter attack.
Game 5: The fifth game saw Spades attempting to wall of the entrance to his base. Spanishiwa managed to send a huge amount of zerglings through his wall, as it was not tight enough to avoid entrance. The first wave sent the mineral line of Spades’main to his natural where a second wave of zerglings had managed to kill several SCV’s. Spades responding by making mass marines that managed to deal massive damage to Spanishiwa’s natural expansion. With an attack from the higher ground, Spades was able to stop resource collection at on of Spanishiwa’s expansions which allowed him to make more units. With the massive amount of units Spades had, he pushed and was able to secure the win for the fifth game.
Game 6: The final game saw Spades looking like he had the upper hand. With a huge bioball and some Siege Tanks, he moved his army up to Spanishiwa’s base. He managed to destroy a lot of what Spanshiwa had, but Spanishiwa managed to create a couple of brood lords, and without many marines to defend against those air units, Spades ended with a “I don’t know”, “gg”. Spanishiwa has held his title as The V champion, and will return next week to defend it.

Starting off with the NASL’s results, this weekend featured some great games and some amazing upsets. Starting with Saturday’s broadcast, the first game was between the American Terran SeleCT and the German Protoss HasuObs. Thanks to his aggressive play and abuse of mobility, SeleCT was able to win his debut match in the NASL 2-0. Match 2 saw the German Terran Goody, known for his solid mech play, take on the creative Zerg CatZ. Showing why he’s the leader of ROOT GAMING, CatZ took the match from Goody 2-0. Match 3 was between Team Liquid’s Ret and the Korean Protoss ACE from team StarTale. Unfortunately for Ret, he just couldn’t hang with ACE’s cleaver play and solid execution losing 0-2. Match 4 was between compLexity’s hero Terran Stalife and Evil Geniuses’ Zerg Machine. In a back and forth series, Stalife was able to come through and bring home a win for compLexity. The final match on Satuday was between Brat_OK VS MC. Unfortunately there was some complication and MC was unable to make the predetermined match time, forcing him to forfeit his first match in the NASL.
This past weekend also saw the final games in the round of 16 in the TSL3. The first match was between FnaticMSI.Sen and SlayerS_BoxeR. Holy crap was this game good. In a classic battle of TvZ, SlayerS_BoxeR (who has been having a bit of bad luck in recent games) reminded everyone why he is “The Emperor” by bringing home a win. If you only watch one game from this past weekend, make it this one. BoxeR’s creative play Vs. Sen’s fantastic macro makes it one of the most entertaining games in recent SC2 history. The second match was between the two European powerhouses mouz.HasuObs and mouz.MorroW. In this ZvP match up, HasuObs’ aggressive play style overcame MorroW’s macro. Game three saw dignitas.NaNiwa Vs. ESC.GoOdy. Proving that his absolutely stunning streak at this past MLG Dallas was no fluke, NaNiwa managed to beat GoOdy, sending him to the round of 8. The last game of TSL3’s round of 16 was between compLexity’s CunCher and Meet Your Makers’ Mondragon. Despite being a titan from the Brood War scene, Mondragon was no match for CunCher’s turtle style Protoss.
Lastly, this past Friday saw week 12 of The V. This week’s edition saw ROOT Minigun take on the relativly new Zerg phenom Spanishiwa. Spanishiwa completely dominated Minigun to open up the matches, however Minigun fought his way back to force a seventh and final game. To the seventh game, Spanishiwa managed to knock Minigun’s crown off becoming the new champion of The V.
