Group D: Another tough group. Possibly group of death along side C. Fantasy can solely practise on TvZ with the help of Boxer and Oov. So it shouldn't be too bad. Only if he could work a bit on his game sense (and nerves) ... only ... if ... *sigh* | ||

When your overall winning percentage is barely over 50%, I wouldn't say you're the favourite in every single game. | ||

His two Nemesises fantasy and Flash have good chances to be burned in their groups, and Jaedong will have a clear road to another gold. | ||

Jaedong, Pusan, go.go., MovieGroup A has 1 clear favourite Jaedong and 1 clear outsider go.go. So main battle will be between Movie and Pusan (go go Movie !  )YellOw[ArnC], Pure, ZerO, HwasinGroup B is the easiest group full of mediocre players. I even will not try to predict which of them will advance... fantasy, Calm, Shine, EffOrtGroup of Death #1. 3 Favourites and lately rising Shine (though he will not play ZvP). Although fantasy didn't play well lately i think he will not throw games off so easily. And of course his TvZ is art! type-b, Stork, Kwanro, FlashGroupt of Death #2. Two favourites Stork and Flash versus #3-4 OSL type-b and #2 MSL Kwanro. | ||

Group B: Hwasin is facing two zergs, and with his MSL group having other 3 zergs, his practice schedule will be quite simple and he is a favorite here. Yarnc is always a menace, but ZerO has being tearing it up lately, and he is the most likely other choice. In my heart, I wish Pure would be the one accompanying Hwasin, but he is still a question mark. Group C: This is definitey the group of death. Everyone here is top dog, even Shine, who after an embarrassing debut against Iris, has picked up his pace and has been cruising thru the PL. Fantasy has toned it down a little, but the OSL owns him another shot at the title, and this might be a first step. Not much to say about the remaining two, Calm and EffOrt, the only two zergs who represent a real threat at the moment to JD´s throne as zerg overmind. Group D: This has a clear favorite to win it all, Flash, and another one to crush everyone except Flash, our very own silver master Stork. However, people should watch out for the other two. Kwanro is the master in senselessly bumping his head into walls, but eventaully even the thickest wall is bound to break if Kwanro hits it with his head enough times. The other one is Type-B, who is one of the most underrated zergs. Many think he is a one hit wonder, and he has a very tough test to proof himself. Personally I hope FLash and Stork make it, but Type-B shouldn´t be dismissed from the start, and even if he doesn´t make it this OSL, I´m almost sure he is going to prove wrong all those who tagged him as a fluke. | ||

The way Flash has been playing TvZ this season, rape is to be expected. Look at the difference in his last game with Kwanro compared to their encounter last MSL. Flash TvZ is really fresh and hot as hell. | ||
