Would you have picked him to win the MSL, even after he got into the Ro16? KNowing the Kespa ranking format, would you have been able to predict that calm would be able to win? It's too hard to make a good prediction, even at the Ro16 b/c of the level of play that every progamer is capable of; predicting a winner from the offline qualifiers is.. pretty much impossible b/c weird shit happens all the time there. I created the thread to imitate Hot_Bid's prediction at the Ro16 (or was it Ro8 i forget the timeline of that thread) that Jaedong would win his first OSL a couple of years ago, when he was still the underdog. Overall, it's just too damn hard to pick a winner anywhere before ro16. FYI - I was watching him closely in proleague (when he beat flash on outsider) and at beginning of the MSL, and "thought this guy could make it to the MSL finals if he keeps playing like this!" It took my lazy ass (and some balls) to create the thread, because I knew that I would be harshly criticized for picking Calm out of all the other favorites. But his Ro 32 and Ro 16 performance made me believe and go for it =) | ||
