You must be nicer to Jju plz -_-;; He has performed very very well in the past too, saying he only started performing well recently is you not giving the man the credit he deserves. Jju has been SOLID for far longer than recently... Plus, he is Samsung's backbone. Without him, that team is ass. Who else do you know that looks so funny and nervous all the time? He deserves a lil more love man ~_~ | ||

I'm never surprised to see him win--against anyone--but I'm never surprised to see him lose, either. | ||

I would say with certainty that Shinhwa is a clear underdog. He's not known for ZvZ, although he's not bad at it, whereas to win, he will have to face a number of good playes. Really, I see Shinhwa's strength as ZvP, and his ZvT is not so bad as well, but my opinion is that his win over Boxer was a fluke. As much as I like Casy, I think he's out too. Zergman just seems to have his number down cold. Left in the tournament are 5 Zergs with fantastic ZvZ. Chojja is the world's best ZvZ player, Yellow is known for his amazing ZvZ, Yellow[name] is just an all around stud with jaw-dropping micro, Jju has a history as a Zerg killer, and Zergman is considered "invincible" in ZvZ in his practice games (although his professional ZvZ record is weak). This tournament may in fact do more to sort out a new pecking-order in ZvZ with players with amazing records all facing each other, if it even is at all possible to do so. | ||

So if this one mirrors the previous one, we will have TvT semifinals with a terran player taking 1st place and 3rd place, and yellow getting second. Casy vs. Iris? I wouldn't mind seeing Casy rape the shit out of Iris, but still, I dunno if Iris (or Casy for that matter) are THAT good at TvZ | ||

All I've seen is Casy lose to Zerg more than they should for their best matchup. | ||

As for the OSL, as long as Yellow is still in it, I'll keep watching. I'm not really interested in seeing anyone else besides Yellow win | ||

I'm not really interested in seeing anyone else besides Yellow win heh agreed here -.- (with both parts... after his performance recently I think casy's real best matchup is TvT, but he can prove me wrong by running through the rest of this OSL) and yellow better win all 3 shinhan 2k6 starleagues and get golden mouse before boxer/oov/july | ||

Both Iris and Casy are good TvZ, but seeing Casy face Zergman again, I can't help but wonder if he'll go down easy. And unless Iris gets some good maps, I think Chojja will topple him. | ||

Yellow who has been showing great zvt play lately and always is stable in the zvz mu. Chojja who won the last MSL by dominating the zvz scene. Casy who is supposedly really good tvz, and with these good maps for terran I put him up with the favorites. Yellow[name] is to unexperienced to win a bo5 zvz vs jju, yellow or chojja as I see it. Shinwa did good vs Boxer in the round of 16 but I don't think he will have a chance vs the 4 above. Iris[gm] is a little of an outsider, but he has got here through tvt and despite of the maps I don't think he can beat any of the top zergs. Jju is really good zvz and at least ok zvt but I don't see him as champion (would be nice if he proved me wrong though). Zergman is not good enough zvz for taking down the big gunners in a bo5. That's my 2 cent  | ||
