I know that last year the first round was bo3, and I think that the ro4 might be as well.

If anything this is a really upsettable lineup. Stork has been slumping, Kal is good but inconsistent, Savior will probably lose, and if the others start dropping games Sea might get nervous... Incontrol's prediction might be right.  I'm kind of disappointed there's no JF though. I'd like to see him play against Kal or Stork (or both). | ||

But I really don't see any of the pros dropping a game to a foreigner. I think it's unlikely Savior will lose a game to any of the zergs, his ZvZ is still good and even during his horrible slump, he beat Yarnc in that proleague game and gave Jaedong a run for his money. And I'm pretty sure Savior threw the game against Mondragon in WCG. The maps don't seem like they are conducive for TvZ cheeses so Savior will not have a problem against Idra or Strelok I'm pretty sure. I think the biggest chance for an upset is actually Stork, against one of the zergs. He beat mondragon in the WCG on Azalea using a 2 gate rush but I think that build is less viable for the current map pool and he will have to FE and leave himself vulnerable. On the game on Peaks, Mondragon could've made it very close if he had realized that Stork's +1 was about to kick in against his Hydra+ling combo. Maybe he'll get 5 pooled. | ||

Strelok can beat Sea, since TvT is his best MU. -2 koreans  | ||

Stork is very very strong, no matter how much you hate him. He steamrolls any foreign zerg with stupid builds. | ||

Feel free to quote this and mock me if hell freezes over and even one of those progamers lose, but that shit will not happen. | ||

Maybe he'll get 5 pooled. Best chance of an upset is Mondragon playing Savior. Although Mondi's zvp is his best matchup, Stork's/Kal's mechanics are just way to good for Mondi. Mondi went 9 hatch/9 pool (his own build), which is supposed to be very strong against 2 gate rush, but Stork's micro allowed him to win. He really stood no chance in any of those games; in an interview after the game, he said he was amazed by Stork's micro, far more so than Savior's. I'm hoping for a Savior - Sea final match where Savior wins without losing a game. That ought to get Tasteless screaming. =D | ||
