Anyways, + Show Spoiler + Seeing as Jaedong crushed by.hero last night, I predict an all-kill for the mighty one. Unless somehow he gets miraculously sniped, then Lecaf's fucked. | ||

EffOrt < Jaedong sKyHigh < JaedongIris > JaedongIris < LomosAviOr > LomosAviOr < HiyAJust an educated guess really, so much is uncertain in this match. Much depends on whether CJ can snipe JD - if JD makes it to RH3 (I think there is a good chance he will) they are doomed. They absolutely cannot send Savior vs. JD. Iris snipe Jaedong on Andromeda? No way. Not unless Iris got a lot better since the last time Jaedong trounced him on Andromeda. Though to be fair, I'm not sure if Much (the only possible alternative) would be any better. Jaedong's just too strong and that map doesn't have the imbalances needed for a good snipe. And there aren't even any good cheese spots, so standard play is the order of the day. No, CJ's best chance for a snipe is SkyHigh on Sin. I know map imbalances don't mean much to Jaedong, but it's something. However, if Iris does pull it off, Lomo's not going to beat him. No way. Iris's TvT is too good and Lomo's is too poor. Even with a special anti-Iris build, Lomo just doesn't have the chops to pull it off. Unfortunately, OZ just doesn't have someone who can win on RH3 besides Jaedong. Or Hiya, and I wouldn't spend him so soon. They might play Lomo, but it'd basically be a sacrifice; they know they're going to take the loss, so they offer up someone who's not going to be a factor. If there is a 3rd round snipe from Iris, here are my predictions: Jaedong > EffOrtJaedong > sKyHighJaedong < IrisLomo < Iris BackHo > IrisBackHo < sAviOrThen it comes down to sAviOr vs. HiyA. | ||

Savior > 4 ppl CJ 4 - 3 Hwaseung but in reality it comes down to either a JD allkill or a successful snipe. | ||

Jaedong > EffOrtJaedong < sKyHighBackHo > sKyHighBackHo < IrisLomo < IrisHiyA < IrisBackHo can stop SkyHigh, and he might have been able to take Iris, but RH3 is going to make that impossible. After losing their only real Terran killers (Jaedong and BackHo), OZ is finished. Maybe Lomo or Hiya can steal a win, but they certainly won't survive Savior or Much. | ||

Hiya owns TvP, putting Much against him would be a very bad idea for CJ | ||

I think everyone expected him to crush by.hero. | ||

 But if Jaedong looses I might read some comments and try my luck again. Though I sure am hoping he'll all-kill again so that won't be necessary  | ||

Now there's two arguments that are valid, Jaedong gets overconfident and loses to cheese again, or Jaedong is too on fire to lose to that kind of thing. If Skyhigh plays straight up he'll lose (and I'll be disappointed). If skyhigh tries some kind of trick he has a chance (and the match will be interesting). If Jaedong pulls some trick on Skyhigh and rapes him, I'll be scared out of my mind. Not only would it be frightening that Jaedong is confident enough to do that, but there's also the overtones of violent revenge. If Jaedong trys to cheese against skyhigh and loses, that will be jaedongs fall from grace and he'll lose the OSL, perhaps 3-0. If Oz loses Jaedong and still takes the match I'll have a new degree of respect for them. | ||

Not saying that's what he should do every single game but think of the "risk" if he goes 12 hatch 11 pool against sKyHigh or someone else to does a proxy 8 rax. Better safe than sorry. But that could also be a problem if he's lured into say a 9 pool more often than not and someone has prepared an exact counter to that. Jesus all these mind games make me sick and I'm just spectating! Poor Jaedong but if anyone's up for it he's the man so still I'm thinking and hoping for that epic all-kill | ||
