EVER OSL 2007 SEMIFINAL MATCH A
0130 Pacific Time / 0430 Eastern Time / 1830 Seoul Time



(T)UpMagiC vs (Z)Jaedong
Southpaw vs Legend Killer

[image loading]




Players

                        (T)UpMagiC is a scene favorite these days, a player known for an array
                        of daring game openings, counter-intuitive tech choices, and sound
                        transitions into orthodox play. Like (T)BoxeR before him, Up is gifted
                        with the MagiC to entertain through novelty gameplan alone, whilst
                        victory is often times simply the closing remark to an already vastly
                        satisfying performance.

                        Having risen from a difficult round-of-16 group and boldly delivered in a
                        sensational quarterfinal encounter, (T)UpMagiC will now be thoroughly
                        tested in his one weak match-up against an opponent widely said to be
                        the current "ZvT Incarnate."

                        Don't be fooled though, if there's one player out there whose ability to
                        play is not accurately reflected by his stats, he's (T)UpMagiC.
                        Deliberately absent from a recent Proleague match, our magician
                        has surely conjured up a wealth of deathdealers in anticipation of the
                        opening pledge.

[image loading]
[image loading]

                        In the wake of (Z)sAviOr's decline, a new hallmark of dominance in the
                        prestigious ZvT match-up inevitably revealed himself to be (Z)Jaedong,
                        whose efficiency and lethality in the ongoing battle against Terran is
                        surpassed by no known Zerg contemporary.

                        To paraphrase Marencielo: "(Z)Jaedong attacks with an abandon that is
                        relentless but hardly reckless - invigorated by a confidence of having little
                        or nothing to lose."

                        Arriving at the height of semifinal by way of feeble Terran resistance,
                        (Z)Jaedong is met by a gatekeeper that is unlike any other of his kind.
                        For once he has everything to gain or lose as the tension rides high
                        and the stakes higher. Can (Z)Jaedong overcome a strategic-inclined                         veteran OSLer and ascend to the zenith of professional StarCraft
                        competition?

                        Many seem to think so, others do not; but only time will tell that tale.



Battlefields

                                                            Set 1 - Persona
                                                            Set 2 - Blue Storm
                                                            Set 3 - Fantasy II
                                                            Set 4 - Katrina
                                                            Set 5 - Persona

Rooting for Up.

That first picture contains great shots of both players.

I really like both but I just want Up to win more because I think he deserves it more, but then again I want Jaedong to win the whole thing :\ I'm hoping for some epic game and hope Up puts up a good fight against Jaedong. :p

oh and nice opening post and nice grapics.

I really hope that Up.magic will win, if only for the sake of an entertaining finals (Jaedong vs P is no thnx).

Voted Jaedong though; probably going to be 3-1.

I devote my heart to UpMagiC... but I sincerely have difficulties imagining him as victorious, especially on those maps. It really IS his worst matchup, if he hasn't magically improved in the past few weeks.

But fuck it, imma skip school and cheer for the true magician, the neo emperor, the man with the flame who knows how to make Starcraft into ART.
I'm just worried .
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

What's bad about Persona for TvZ?
