Unfortunatly MBC couldn't see the Bisu or the Light when they chose their player for the ace matchup. Ok lame jokes aside.
GO CJ!!!

It wasn't on the definitions thread.
I always hear "sniped the observer" or "sniped the DT" etc.
Edit: But this usage is different it seems.

Sniper in this sense is someone who trains in the MU and/or map to be sent against a specific player. It's used when you know what race will show up on a map, or in this case, Jaedong almost certainly been sent out for ace match.

sniper would be someone in the CJ team that trains really really hard just to take jaedong out... "like to snipe him!"
|
Since Jaedong will wipe the floor with Iris, I thought Lecaf would send out another player? I thought the Ace match wasn't there to send your best player out everytime. But then my understanding of the way Proleague works is limited.

I think Jaedong is expected ace for a couple reasons. First would be he's the best player around right now and that I don't think anyone on CJ could beat him. Second (for me at least), is that the map is Blue Storm, aka Zerg Heaven... Dunno what other people think though.

Plexa recently wrote an awesome blog entry on the usage of Shark as a sniper for MBC Hey thanks, that is an awesome blog entry.
<3 TL.net and it's enlightening members.
Snipers fighting! (though I'd like to see Jaedong continue his beastliness here)

(Z)LJD > (T)Iris
I really wouldn't bet against Jaedong in a ZvT MU. It's like forsaking rice, pizza or potatoes or something.
(T)Hiya < (P)Much
As already mentioned, both players have been beastly lately. Both their records aside, they'll be playing on Baekmagoji which favors Much.
(Z)Bright/(T)Dongrae > (Z)saviOr/(T)XellOs
This was hard to call objectively, the Maestro being my favorite Z player (along with YellOw/Hong Jin Ho) and XellOs being my favorite T player next to NaDa and LYH. Unfortunately, I haven't seen these two in action as a team so I'd have to call Lecaf by default. Don't count CJ out though.
(P)Anytime < (T)DarkElf
Monty Hall + DarkElf = chiji! Seriously, everything that needs to be said has already been said. On one hand you have a player who is good, but is given more credit than he deserves (as much as I'm a fan of Anytime, I really wouldn't hype him against anyone as I would the Mantoss or Beesuit) and on the other, you have an underrated player who has been coming into his own as of late.
(T)fOrGG < (Z)KwanRo
KwanRo is riding a huge wave of momentum at the moment and that works to his advantage. That win over NaDa was surely a big boost to his confidence, plus KwanRo has been good in terms of ZvT lately.
(T)Lomo/(Z)Shinwha < (Z)Jy/(T)Memory
This is more of a gut feel than anything, with me liking CJ over Lecaf.
CJ 4, Lecaf 2.
If it goes to ace, it'll probably be (Z)LJD v. (P)Much or (Z)saviOr. Both matches could go either way, IMO. Maybe CJ will send out the Maestro, and he'll type in his name as IPXZerg and re-start the Ma Jae Yoon era, prompting us to believe that he's been losing all of his previous matches on purpose.

Hopefully the guys doing the commentary will give us audio cues at various points, eg if there is an in-game timer visible, stating the time every so often will help people sync up. I can't help with this one  .
Casters will be Me, Kennigit, Chill, Hot_Bid, Intrigue and random others.
We will be starting sooooooooooon.
