2006 Shinhan OSL Season 2 at 18:30 Korea time
Anytime (P, Lecaf) vs July (Z, MBCgame) on Tau Cross
Chojja (Z, KTF) vs Bisu (P, MBCgame) on New Peaks of Baekdu

Jju (Z, Samsung) vs Canata (T, SKT) on Arkanoid
Jy (Z, CJ) vs Light (T, MBCgame) on Arkanoid
Iris (T, CJ) vs GoRush (Z, SKT) on Tau Cross
Points to watch:
1. GGPlay has an 80% winning record (16-4, ZvZ 7-1) in 2006. He is the hottest player in Progaming right now. Can he keep it up?
2. New maps! We will be seeing more first time matchups on Arkanoid, Tau Cross, Blitz, Longinus, and New Peaks of Baekdu. Are they balanced? What kind of strategies are they open to? Which players have the best understandings of the new maps?
3. Elimination time for MSL! The losers of next weeks's matches are eliminated for good from this MSL. Group A will have Sparkyz teammate drama, and there are a lot of big names scheduled to play, some of whom will be gone for good.
4. OSL Group of Death: The group A matches are Casy vs Midas, Anytime vs July. We will get a pretty good idea of who will make it to the next round after these matches. Anytime said that "each member in this group is the ace of their team. I put my pride as the Lecaf ace at stake." Who will win?

Well, am I the only one who's excited about the Terran clash Midas vs Casy?
IMHO that will be hell of a game, especially on Tau Cross.

This weeks game should be damn fucking good. Can't wait.

If Midas beats Casy again... I will truly truly be very very sad.
I wanna see Yellow vs Shine... because I have a nasty gut feeling that Yellow still can't beat T's on maps like Arcadia.
What a great week for games, OSL and MSL.

wtf midas is like x100 cutier

Dude, I'm better at being a fag than you and I say Casy. Ok?
Have you seen the dudes walrus smile? He's funny looking but adorable.

Anytime really needs a win here. He has all to gain with a victory over July, but it isn't an easy task. If he loses, it's likely he won't end up first in his group or perhaps eliminated if he botches the last game, plus - terrans are highly unlikely to pick tosses as their opponents on these maps in the elimination rounds. Thus any zerg who qualifies will want to play the remaining tosses I think.
|
a lot of promising matchups there, also not many mirrors, looking forward to some ggs.
And thx for posting the information.

I hate to even go here, but what the fuck? He keeps qualifying for OSL and just placed top 3 in the last one. I dunno, I guess your expectations are just ridiculous but he is still a top 20 SC player.

All OSL matches begin at 18:30 Korea Time, not 19:00 as previously written.

Haha, if you had said to me that Ggplay would have a 17-4 record when the season first started, I wouldve laughed out loud on the spot. But congrats on his hot streak.
|
Cannot believe Shine lost like that to Yellow. Hate me all you want, but I put my money on Shine that game.
GGplay is hot right now for sure, but he hasn't been playing the studs yet. We'll see how far he can take this. I'm liking what I see so far. He's underrated in every MU atm.
Luhh...Casy is probably going to get eliminated. 0-2 and now about to face July. Midas looks hot and has been looking hot for the past year now. Okay, so he isn't winning 80%, but look at his matchlist anyone? Savior, Oov, July, Chojja, Casy, ... wow.
The new maps look really good. I read lots of complaints about balance when they were first released, but they seem to be balanced in the proleagues. Blitz seems to have the biggest issues really.
NaDa doing well! Me likes!
Zergman looks strong, even in his loss last night. I like when I get to say "I told you so."
