EPTim also interested in seeing what bisu can do, and midas has something to prove after placing last in his group in the last OSL, no matter how unstoppable he may have seemed in the last few weeks.

Actually, picking TT isn't exactly the standard coward choice for yellow.. I mean, I remember a starleague (MBC, although a couple of years back) where he knocked out both chojja and yellow without losing a game, before finally meeting nal_ra in winners bracket and losing, then meeting ra in losers bracket and losing ; [ Or was that rage? Eitherway, I think he's known for being strong PvZ.. Oh well, dunno =] At least we have interesting maps now. I think. | ||

He beat Boxer convincingly, too. None of that luck shit. Light[Alive] is a damn good Terran. Also, 815 is a clusterfuck of a map -- it's a total tossup as to who wins usually (unless ZVP, of course). Anytime's PVT has also been top-notch as of late. He smacked Sea[Shield] down as well. The only thing making me feel iffy about that win was the fact that he used DT's. I don't really count DT's as being that 'secure' a win, save special instances where you can safely use them to expand and such. So he did catch Sea[Shield] offguard, but it's CP. CP requires high pressure so DT's is probably one of the best things to do. The thing about Anytime is that he is very, very controlled. There are very few cases where he gets sloppy. Both his macro and micro are strong, as he seems to know when to focus on each one. His problem post-So1 was either 1) He was facing a zerg or 2) He went overboard on DT's. I think now he's not relying on DT's as much because people have gotten accustomed to his style. Midas[gm] is the best TvP in the world. However, ruling Anytime out because he lost to Light[Alive] means nothing. Boxer lost to ShinHwa[Name], who is a dogshit player. You should judge playstyles over who beats who -- ShinHwa's playstyle was poor, and he got as far as he did due to luck -- while players like Bisu[Shield] look very promising. For the record I think Midas will beat Anytime, but to say that with absolute certainty isn't fair. Umm... come on, it's Anytime. I'd be worried if he won without the use of DT's Anyway, I like Anytime's chances, considering the fact that the OGN curse is factual. I also hope he proves his PvZ to us. | ||

He's one of the better PvT players out there, and at least I consider him a favorite against the terrans, but July is quite another matter. Edit: Oh, and Midas TvP is overrated. One of the best but still very much overrated. A good PvT player should have an advantage compared to a good TvPer. | ||

However, I really hope he wins. Maybe he will make it to the round of 8 or semis and prove the Curse can be Broken... hell -_- if He's gonna fill in Boxer's shoes.. he should at least be able to break the curse. | ||

July got to the Round of 8 in 2005 ShinHan after winning Ever2. So it can be done, but it rarely happens. | ||

I think Anytime will walk through Casy. Casy hadn't played much TvP in the prior OSL, and the games he played vs. Stork in WCG were quite shitty. I think I speak for a lot of people when I saw that I would really like to see a NaDa vs. July final! P.S. Can someone please link me to the groups for this OSL, I can't seem to find the news post!! | ||

I like Casy, but the OGN curse is too strong. I'm hoping Anytime and July move on, and Casy beats Midas and screws over his chances. Midas has been so well lately, but Casy can certainly screw things up for him! | ||
