Well, then again, hero's always more been known for vP and nowadays vZ so to me it's not at all obvious that he will power over Mind.
Seeing as Flash is wary of Hero more than any other Zerg and Mind being nowhere near Flash's level in TvZ, it just seemed logical. Hero is a beast and is, at least for me, the best zerg player ATM, although not as flamboyant as larva or having the deadly precision of Soulkey. Maybe I'm wrong, but hero vs mind is pretty tilted for me.

Does anyone know the map order for ro8? Are they going to use same map order for all 4 match-up or not?
each player can thumb down one of gladiator/sparkle/transistor/third world which means the thumbed down map won't be played twice. then the maps are randomly ordered.

Heart says Shuttle, Mind, Mini, Flash in ro4.
Mind says Shuttle, Hero, Larva, Flash (with a small lead, though. Snow is a monster as far as I've followed him.)

do not take that too seriously, but what I meant is bisu is the only guy without a strong game sense who make it through the best players in the world.
Even a rusty JD, or Rain for instance, are going to be a challenge for anyone because, well, they are smart players. it doesn't apply to what I saw of Movie.
Remember the shuttle with a reaver inside that he basically suicide for no reason to JD on sparkle :o
Thats funny, because Movie is known for having extraordinary low APM for a pro. So how does a guy with barely 200 apm become one of the best protoss in professional bw in 2009-2011? Let me tell you, by outsmarting and outthinking his opponents. You use one example of some fault he did in one game vs jaedong last round and use that as your basis to claim that he is a dumb individual. Guess what, jokes on you.
Movie has not been practicing much lately and from what i have seen of him in these recent interviews, it doesn't seem like he feels that great about himself either. Which is sad (if its the case).

How about Mini vs Snow will have been in the semifinal and then one of them who will meet Mind in the final?

Rain 3-2 Shuttle

Flash 3-1 Snow

Snow is really good on these maps. Flash might almost be an underdog. I think Flash will down vote Sparkle.

I don't think Flash will downvote Sparkle. I think it barely favors Terran in TvP. Just my opinion.

It's absurd how knowledgeable and analytical Tasteless is for BW compared to SC2 yet people say that his commentary is outdated and useless
I think he is doing a lot better now and they ramble on about nonsense a lot less so I am really enjoying them this season.
They have great chemistry and they are both really funny guys, I get sick of them when it goes to far but when their focus is on the games they are really great!

So, what is the map pool for the quarter-finals?

Happy to see 2 protoss players made it. Sad for Action but I don't think he's ready just yet if that last game was any indication. He certainly has the potential to be a top 5 zerg imo so hopefully he'll keep pushing forward in the next ASL. Movie losing wasn't surprising. He was such a force to be reckoned with, probably top 3 protosses then but being rusty doesn't help.
I'm extremely pleased with the Ro8 groups. More so the second half. We get Snow vs Flash, a chance to see if Flash can still tangle with protoss offline on the new maps. If Flash beats Snow and sadly, I think he will, he'll have to contend with either Mini or Larva. Mini's style gives Flash trouble and Larva vs Flash would be a fantastic watch so whoever advances, it'd be great regardless! If Flash loses, well, great! I'm just highly doubtful this will happen.
First half is ok. PvP can go either way imo, depends on preparation. Mind vs hero is likely in hero's favour seeing as Mind's vZ during the wildcard matches looked terrible :/ We are guaranteed at least 1 protoss in the semis, potentially 2-3 depending on Larva and Flash. Likely a zerg guarantee too with hero. Imagine if both Mind and Flash are eliminated then we ended up with 3 Ps and hero haha.
