it would be pretty funny to see what SKT fans have to say if Best beats Bisu and then gets rolled by Lux in the next round lol


lol that would be too funny >.<

And am I the only one who sort of wants to see a Bisu v By.hero final with by.hero winning? Just for the ironic, "I knocked you out of the OSL twice!" effect?

That being said, JD v Bisu would be sweet. I would like to see a Lux v Best semi's though... just for old times sake.

waaaaaaaaaaaaah


He's just the guy who eliminated Bisu in the OSL ro36, eliminated Boxer in GOM ro64, beat iloveoov in the OSL prelims, and knocked out GoRush in Survivor. If he was up against someone from SKT I'd say he's a sure thing to win. It's just too bad he has to face his own teammate, especially Hwasin.

And oh yes by.hero vs bisu final would be thirty kinds of awesome.

It would be really cool if we got a Stork vs Bisu final. Though there is not much contention anymore that Bisu is the best protoss overall at the moment, it might be that Stork has better PvP.

However, this would require Stork>Jaedong...

That's very unlikely, unless JD is overconfident like July was in the tiebreaker. It's not that Stork sucks totally at PvZ, he's just nothing special. His only way of beating a ZvP monster like JD is to get a psychological edge, and have JD play under his real skill level. Here's hoping.

Too bad BeSt isn't in his godly PvP shape/streak he was in few months ago. Would like to see that. Anyway, 2 best PvPers around, too bad I only semi-enjoy PvP ;o

I'm also looking forward to JD vs Stork, OSL/WCG revenge for both~~ and, hell yeah, go Stork i love your supper sloppy PvZ kwanro grin

Two TvZs, but fantasy's TvZ is kinda meh, and he underperforms a bit after all his hype. Not that Lux doesn't, but Lux seems more solid atm. by.hero vs Hwasin should produce interesting aggressive games. (AH LETA WHY, WHYYYY /rant)

Sorry to the Bisu fans... but this OSL belongs to the Insurance Terran.

My Dream bracket:
Bisu > Best
Fantasy > Luxury
Hwasin > Hero
Jaedong > Stork

then
Bisu > fantasy
Hwasin > Jaedong

then
Hwasin > Bisu


Hwasin finally overcomes the stigma of "Insurance Terran" and destroys Bisu for his first OSL, dashing any bonjwa dreams in the process. THAT, my friends, is more epic than any [Bisu>Jaedong] final you will ever see.

The fat kid who got pushed around during recess and was called names by the handsome kid, who grows up and works in a cubicle for said handsome kid, who comes in one day with a revolver and pops that handsome kid in the face. The perfect comeback story.

Best's PvP has been monsterous in the recent past. I don't know if we will see Bisu overcome best.
Live to win.

This is the best R8 in a long time, i cant say theres an underdog at all, only Jaedong-Stork looks like a sure bet and thats just on paper.

Dam it!
After yesterday Tiebraker result i thought that stork is the biggest obstacle for bisu to take the gold.
But now i see the competition is strong. Bisu has performed well pvp recently and best did a little worse than his usual self. But the tides have to turn eventualy. It's a conflip to me. They teammates and know thier style well, they will try to adapt and maybe change their playstyle to confuse each other. I think somone said it but i repeat, it the quality of practice partners will have enourmus meaning.
Bisu has always beat hwasin even when he was in form so i dont think he will have problem with him.
By.hero did win earlier but r4 is bo5 right? very diffrent from bo1 and bisu should take this if it would happen.
Jaedong, again very hard opponent, who on theese maps will have the edge,

I don't want to sound like a blind bisu fan (I am of couse a one) but i am more of a protoss fan, and
a dominating protoss wolud be great to happen, and none other, besides Bisu is closer to it. So i cheer for him with all my heart. Stork or Best Winning would be ok i guess.
sry 4 me english, feel free to correct my mistakes (to lazy to change firefox spelling from polish)

OMG IM EXCITED

I'm hoping for the exact same bracket except I'd like Luxury > Fantasy so Bisu can get 2 PvZ B05 in a row and be better prepared.

I for one is super excited for the Bisu vs Best match. I don`t care if they are teammates, iv been waiting for them to clash for a long time now and I expect them to deliver some awesome games.
Best RO8 in a long time imo, and pretty much regardless of the results the rest of the tourney are bound to be good also.

I am excited for BeSt vs. Bisu too but much rather preferred their confrontation in a Bo5 Semi-Final or Final. Ro8 is way too early T_T

Best vs Bisu... Cmon Best, one time.
You can win this OSL because you can believe in Hwasin to kill all the zergs for you! Awesome!
I want Hwasin to do well so Best can do well.
I think the best chance at beating JD is Bisu or Hwasin easily, but -_-;; can't give Bisu a chance to see.

I don't think anyone is giving enough credit to Hwasin. It is like Casy all over again with his OSL run only consisting of Zerg. If luxury or fantasy make it out of their respective A/B bracket then Hwasin has a good shot. (qq)

On a site note, I'd like to see Fantasy go, but the chances of him taking a BoX from a protoss, especially Best or Bisu is highly unlikely.
Did the whole world just get a lot smaller and go whooosh?_-` Number 0ne By.Fantasy Fanatic!

even though I'm a big big Terran fan and I've always liked Hwasin, I'd really prefer Jaedong vs Bisu finals than to have Hwasin get utterly raped by Bisu in the final
