A solid player who was good enough to acquire a monicker, yet not remarkable enough to have it sound properly fearsome, the Invisible Terran has skyrocketed into the spotlight during this Winners League, boasting a monstrous 24-7 record and three all-kills. Eyebrows were raised when he killed ACE, eyes popped from their sockets as he dismantled SKT and murdered eSTRO. Will Light remain visible by taking his momentum into the starleagues, or will he fade away -- just another proleague Terran in the shadow of more established figures like Sea and Leta?
Perfectman. A player who makes you appreciate the difference between mediocre and just plain bad. Gives new meaning to the phrase "to take one for the team." Is Jaedong looking more stressed than usual? Sleep deprived? Chances are, it's all Perfectman's fault. Well, Lomo's too. Will Perfectman top BaBy and create an even bigger upset in this Round of 36? "There's a good side to sucking. JD loses a game, it's a slump. I lose a game? Business. As. Usual."
The cutest player in professional Starcraft (not to be confused with the prettiestplayers), Zero isn't so cuddly when he's plaguing your marines and dark swarming your natural. He's downright obnoxious when he throws in a queen for kicks. After making a name for himself in ZvZ, Zero decided that the matchup wasn't subtle enough for him and outsourced it to his teammate Kwanro. Now he's free to orchestrate some of the scariest ZvT in the scene. Will he snuff out Light and take his cuteness to the next level?
With his impressive Winners League performance Light should be the favorite, and we know that he's gone deeper in the individual leagues than proleague Terrans such as Leta. At the same time, having been thrust into the spotlight and promoted to team ace overnight, he's probably been much more focused on the WL than Zero. I give the cutie pie an edge because of this, but I wouldn't be surprised if Light wins instead. Regardless of the final outcome, here's hoping it'll be a close, hard fought series.
Light vs Zero is gonna be the best matchup in the Ro36, both of those guys deserve to be in at least the Ro16, hell I could see this being a semi-final.
PerfectMan going to reaver cheese (proxy robo) Light in game 1 then DT drop in game 2, then lose to Zero's first 6 lings in game 1 then lose to hydra bust in game 2. Detailed and unreal predictions FTW
I suspect cheese from Perfectman. By the way, I do believe that Perfectman is now "Future". If he is the future of E-Sports, then I'd say it is pretty grim.
I don't know who to root for here. Light or Zero. Oh man, both deserve to be in the OSL!

But he has purple glasses....
Perfectman will perfectly execute his plan into perfection of a total perfect game that holds the victor to the most perfect player of all: + Show Spoiler +
Light
That being said, this sorta takes me back between Kira/Light vs Near in deathnote as we all know who Near is here....
