I was hoping for a TBLS Ro4. Also no FvJ finals.
But we can't really complain, all matchups are pretty good, no hero vs JD ZvZ or other dumb mirrors.

herO is going to rape BeSt with his superior ZvP and then he is going to beat Bisu in a close game, move on to finals and get raped by Flash

Ill give you two to one odds on this

A lot can happen definitely. Stork or Jaedong COULD upset Flash.

Sea could upset Bisu (probably not), BeSt could upset herO, Bisu could take the series vs herO and I wouldn't be surprised.

I simply think that, that final is the most likely, it won't necessarily happen, if I had to bet I'd bet on Flash vs herO, however I rather wouldn't be at all

Bisu, hero, Flash, JD.

Best is the only underdog who really have a good chance of winning. Sea too maybe. I think he was underrated by pretty much everybody, going into this. It's funny how everybody were saying that he was the weakest seeded player, and he was the only one who made it. But still, it's Bisu. I think Sea is strong enough to challenge Bisu, but I will be surprised if he wins. I think the A and B series will be great, while the C and D series look completely one-sided, and I expect it to really hurt the quality of the games. Flash will not lose for sure. JD could lose if Stork comes up with some great strats, which he's certainly capable of, but a lot of things would have to fall in place for him to win a whole series.

It's shaping up into a Flash vs Bisu finals, which is exactly what I wanted.

-I actually think that Sea has a decent chance against Bisu (like 20%). His TvP seems to be pretty good at the moment.
-Best's PvZ is amazing, but still I give Hero like 60% to advance.
-Yeah.. Flash..
-I doubt that Stork can win against JD, I give about the same chance to him as I do to Sea.

What a RO8... I don't know if I've ever seen this level before... You change Guemchi by Effort and it's just just the most insane RO8 ever =D

At some point you have to acknowledge effort's inability to preform when it matters in the post kespa era. He's simply not the best right now despite his practice results.


I'm not totaly agree with you, it's difficult to judge the level of Effort in a group stage with BO1 format. In the post kespa era he has already won a major tournament beating great players like Zero and Bisu.

I like Guemchi, he's good player and he deserved his place but I would be much more excited in a bo3/bo5 Flash vs Effort rather than Flash vs Guemchi. Btw it's just my opinion !

Prediction : Bisu, Hero, Flash, JD => Bisu, Flash => Bisu

Please do not use rape.

You should use "Wrecked" or any other word

Not unless it's against forum rules, Bisu will sodomize Sea, there is no better word for it.

please don't use 'rape', even if it's not specifically against forum rules

Jaedong / Hero / Bisu / Flash t4

No, unless one of the forum moderators/admins openly states using the word "rape" in any context is against forum rules, of their privately run website, and that the rule will be globaly enforced, no. I don't see a point in needlessly censoring myself.

Should we stop using the words "killed" "murdered" as well when talking in the context of Brood War because of "reasons"? Censoring words is precisely what gives them power over people.

Most people no longer use rape in the same way most people don't use gay as a pejorative ("that DT rush is so gay"). Its certainly within your right to use that word as a synonym but there's a reason why that sort of language is often associated with teenage Call of Duty players.

It can be associated with whatever it wants to be, I don't partake in politically correct language, funnily enough I used to be more politically correct as a teenager than I am now, once I stepped into the real world, got a chance to actually interact with real human beings, several of them actually experiencing rape or being gay, I learned that limiting and mandating language protects nobody, except for the easily offended.

I really don't mind talking about it, over PM,

but that's enough of that, 2pac is right, this isn't the forum to discuss this.

Okay, but to be clear. At the moment TL does not mandate language use in any context as long as it's not expressly hateful?
