hahaha, as soon as you post this, I edited in the big banner

whatever you do just dont put it into public discussion, skip the polls and do whatever you find best. Its your OP I just made a suggestion cause it looked well even without the pictures of leta and midas <3 love your work, I'm glad you keep doing this
If it goes to ACE I'm expecting Leta from Hite. It's hard to predict who would be coming from Fox though, they've sent a huge variety of players (even Nada and Rock) on their last couple of games on Outsider. Roro seems to be the most recurring player however.
edit: Mind vs Leta TvT would be really nice though, esp. if both players bring out their best.
Two weeks ago I would have said 3-1 hite with Yarnc dropping a game (Yarnc vs Protoss overrides all "imba" discussions), but now it's looking like WeMade 3-1 with Midas dropping a game is more plausible - although Horang2 could win, in which case I expect RorO vs Yarnc ace and... I don't know.
this match gave me nightmares trying to decide for LB. I went with wemade but who knows!
Roro has been hot, yarnc has garbage zvp, leta will prob take over midas, but then mind should take over horang2.
but really who knows with this shit. I mean gogo has good zvt, and everyone says heartbreak is a shithole pvz so lots of the matches can go either way.
tonights game will decide if i lb roro and how good i decide he is. if he wins, (especially an ace match) i am going to declare him (100% officially) not just a lucky streak-er and a solid good player to trade from my anti team for like bisu
Roro is hot with blue fire on his rear, go.go is not. Sure, go.go did manage to edge past MST, so I wouldn't be surprised if go.go wins either. To be honest, I really feel bad for the people out there who picked Roro on their anti. I mean, who the hell was Roro to us couple months ago?
Fake Yellow is slumping after he finally received his coveted silver medal. Historically mediocre with ZvP, his one saving grace is that he is fighting against a mediocre Protoss. Seems like a dead even matchup to me, with the late Silver Medalist being the huge favorite because he has a S-rank name recognition that few can claim equal to.
OK, this is Midas' DEBUT match since he joined WeMade. Who wouldn't love a comeback from the Teddy Bear Terran? But luck is not on his side. His opponent is the world's third best Terran. Sure, Leta crashed and burned during the past few matches, but he is Leta.
Reality is so cruel. This is one match that I wouldn't bear to watch.
Mind is back~!! Well, sort of. The once super Terran who ended Bisu's short lived Bonjwa candidacy seems to start to show signs of revival with his OSL qualification and schooling FBH's very respectable TvT. Horang2 isn't bad at all. But I believe in the revival and resurrection of Savior and therefore I am willing to give the same benefits to Mind.
Leta is the logical option for hite of course. But that's boring. With all the high dramas happening around, I vote Type-B for ACE! Why? Cuz I own him and I really need a boost in my Fantasy.
WeMade lacks a solid choice. I think it will be either Mind or Roro. Since Outside SE has seen an incredible number of Zerg victories, Roro got a very good shot at being picked for ACE here.
P.S. I hope hite wins just because I own Type-B and I want the 1 point for team victory. Desperate non-KT fan is desperate.
pure attacks yarnc's 1oclock expo with 2dark 4corsair, yarnc initially fails by having no hydra at his expo, scourges come and clear the corsairs + overlord spawns to clear dark templars

Yarnc only making lings -_-;; his dying overlord scouts Pure's 7o'clock expo. Pure pushing Yarnc's 5o'clock expo with pure zealots, Yarnc has nothing to defend with, it's pretty much over. Yarnc GG's as his 5o'clock expo goes down.
yarnc has been suxing since the OSL finals big time. counthing the finals, he's lost 15 out of 25 games, 40%. even his ZvT has gone down like fuckin crazy from 70-something% i think it was to 63%...i think he completely lost his confidence and i dont see him making a come back any time soon at least luxury is representing the family

Well its amazing how many games he wins in the first place with 2 hatch speedlings into mutas. Im not sure confidence is the reason.
And his zvp is trash, and its way to early too be jocking on luxury.

I will too, unless he plays against 2 terrans on some z>>t map. Yarnc and Jangbi have been useless for me.
JangBi is deadweight for me. I had so much high hopes seeing as he was 1 pt. with the potential, but clearly I was mistaken. :[
Iris hasn't been doing that well either...
You know what sucks, he's 2 points.
Either way, the trading both away is going to be extremely difficult. There's such a lack of depth below them. Most of the people below them don't even start games, they simply get the team win points...and those are starting to look good. >___>
Fast port from Midas. Leta's vulture sneaks in, snipes a marine and scv. Vulture does NOT see the port, but commentators saying Leta should have guessed Midas went port from Midas's other buildings.
Leta's academy and armory going up at the same time, but they are really really late, Midas's 1wraith doing some damage @ Leta's nat. Wraith 5 kills so far.
Midas has 3wraith now, Leta reconstructing army @ main, commentators saying even if Leta gets his goliaths out, it'll be difficult to catch up to 3 cloaked wraiths with only 1 comsat. Moreover, wraiths have been out long time so their mana's should be pretty filled. Wraiths with almost 20 kills total, 1 or 2 wraiths go down eventually. Commentators also saying that Leta let his guard down and perhaps underestimated his opponent.
Leta harassing back with his own wraiths, lol. Commentator: Leta "scores" a few points but the difference has been made early, the mech army of Midas is too much overpowering now.
Kona's stream: STORKKKKKK <3 U SEXY BEAST you need to let January out in 3 games so you get some points for my fantasy team T_T Stork: I want to be the first protoss to win the golden mouse. It's getting harder now that I'm getting older (laughs).

What was he supposed to do? The hidden starport was a pretty nice move, and sometimes you get fooled by things like that. That's Starcraft.
This game doesn't prove anything about a slump.
The commentators did say that Leta should have known something was out of order when his 1vulture harass saw 1fact+addon. Leta had enough time to build academy and/or armory right away but he didn't for a quite a while, and when he did, it was already really late. They also added that Leta might be vastly underestimating his opponent because Midas hasn't played in SPL for 1yr+.
Perhaps it's not a slump, but need for an attitude change.

Since (and including) his 0-3'ing at the hands of sKyHigh and Movie, Leta is 5-12 in televised games. In the same length of time prior to that game, Leta was 24-12.
Leta looked crushed by those losses, especially the ACE match loss that he was leading, until he got stormed. I don't think he's recovered since.

You, my friend, are a blind fanboy. I'm a huge Leta fan, but he sure as hell is playing bad now (compared to his peak).

Horang2 spurts out a carrier. Mind is completely confused at Horang2's decision to 1 base carrier. Possibly one of the most hilarious games of all time.

You're bad at building carriers. Terrible lack of skill to have.
That may have been one of the worst games I've ever seen. Horang2 never fails to be absolutely incomprehensible.
like the game where he did this vs Nada: 1)fail proxy 2 gates in nada main without doing damage 2)make 2 cores 1 proxy 3)make proxy dts 4)dts do no damage 5)??? 6)Roll over Nada in mid-lategame.
That was the weirdest game I ever saw, I didnt understand anything at all.

This is so depressing. KT finished 7th last pl season is now 1st, although its not too surprising. Wemade who finished 11th is now 2nd. WTF! stx who finished 3rd(technically tied for 5/6 with hite if you include playoffs) is 3rd, not surprising. Oz who finished 2nd is now 4th, not bad. mbc & estro, one of the lower teams last season, is now tied for 5th place. again a wtf moment. well, the rest of the standings are wtf moment except for woonjing and ace.
4/6 playoff contenders are in the bottom 6 of proleague.

How is this depressing? I would say it was way more depressing when Estro, Ace and Wemade just rolled over and died 3-0 against the top teams.

I can understand if you as a Khan fan are disapointed by your favourite team losing, but overall this is an awesome trend.

I agree, this spices things up a little bit. I'm a CJ fan, but I'm enjoying the struggling of the big favorites. The possibility of having CJ, STX and SKT1 a couple of wins away from PO elimination at the last stretch of the regular season makes things much more interesting than having them clinching a spot with 1 whole round to go.
Don't get me wrong, I'll be very pissed if CJ missed the PO's to WeMade for just two avoidable losses, but I'd appreciate the excitement of the pressure to win-or-get-out in the season's last sprint.
then only thing i was sure of was that go.go wouldn't win, of course that is what happened ;p nice going WeMade, especially Midas! or was it just that Leta played bad?

I think that reputation is getting to him. He has the pressure of having to do some sort of ridiculous strategy every game, and that's causing him to do dumb things instead.
