Dang, Best has the second highest odds I've ever seen, and against a good player like Kal too. Imagine if Kal won, this could be a glimpse of how hard Best is training for the OSL.

Epic. I hope we get to see game 4.

SKT1 has to get my vote here.

I want at least Hwasin to take a match so we get to see Best play Kal.

I can't wait for this match! predictions:

Bisu > by.hero ( I love watching bisu lose to Zs but I don't see by.hero beating anyone but boxer)
Midas < Hwasn (Hwasin is TvT godness)
rumble < Calm (calm is on STX and I like STX)
best > Kal (Kal is way cooler than best but best is best :\)
ace match:
Best < July (because July is awesome)

I dunno who I want to lose on SKT1 so we can see Best manhandle another Protoss. It'd be a nice show of what's going to happen to Stork if nothing else.

Last I checked, Best is training for a PvP against Stork. I think that would help his chances in a PvP against Kal. It'll be the same matchup. I'm calling Best on this one.

...ok? I did say Best was training for PvP. I just want to see if he performs even more godly.

It's the percentage chance that they will beat their opponent. Midas has a better win chance than Hwasin based on historic stats; he has a higher win % against Terran than Hwasin does.. and Kal is at 25% because BeSt has an 83% win record against Protoss.

Kal's PvP is his only MU with a below 50% win ratio and he recently lost twice in that matchup in the same proleague set. Best's PvP is the most successful in the history of Starcraft, 14 win streak, if you don't know this, ><. Check it out, it's unreal.

As for Hwasin, I guess it's that way since Hwasin has never been outstanding in this matchup.
He's good, but not awesome. However his recent schooling of his MSL group does make me question this a little as well.
Midas is just good.
