EPT1. Jaedong
2. EffOrt
3. Yarnc/July (still up in the air)
I would hate to see a July vs. Effort final even though its looking more and more likely, because July really does NOT know how to zvz.

Flash vs July: Should be a walkover for Flash really. Im hoping Flash won't resort to lame pure mech builds. Effort vs Iris: It is regarded that a team-mate TvZ favours the Terran more (July said this back then). So effort might struggle through this one, but should still win I think. Effort vs Flash finals would be great. | ||

I do, actually, while you don't. First of all, i can understand that Greg bm'ed/owned your ass and you are butthurt, therefore no common sense will appeal to you, but whatever. As for him participating in foreign leagues, many leagues excludes Chinese because they have their own leagues, guess what, so does Idra. He has a progamer liscense for gods sake. Considering chinese are banned from most tournements (because they lag and because they beat everyone) If they are banned, its only becouse of lag, nothing else.Them having own leagues has nothing to do with it, they aren't even close to korean level, no matter what crap they will say in interviews. Idra has license, wohooo, that makes him unbeatable!Idra is nowhere near A team player's level whom we watch everyday, and even if he was - is it his fault that others have no time/ such means of practice?Yeah thats right, its not, and you should be fucking happy that he finds time to participate in all these tourneys, while representing us in Korea. Hes better than every other foreigner atm?Sure,good for him, he plays in all these leagues to win, not to please your sorry ass and lose.Do you want to ret to get banned from them also becouse he pretty much rapes everyone except Idra, and plays vs estro pros, while even taking single games off them? And don't even try to put yourself in ret's shoes, this sentence is just ridiculous: if i was in rets shoes I would be pretty pissed. Getting beaten in an amateur tournement by a professional. Idra doesnt get to talk to other koreans because he is to lazy to learn korean, BOOHOO Funny that Artosis uses thats as a reason for him to play in foreign tournements, that basically says all about his good reasoning As for language part, try learning korean while playing Starcraft 8-10h/day?Yeah right, he does not do that so Artosis has excuse when Idra loses.Pretty sure you would pick korean,french and play on the stock market while making it there to A team. | ||

July just has to 4 pool, or 9 pool, or anything that's aggressive to kill Flash based on his last 5 games. | ||

That's not an excuse--it's his problem--but the fact remains that for the last week, Jaedong face has looked weary rather than deadly, and his play has been below standard (for him). Until I see a new look on Jaedong's face, I expect his current slump to continue. The schedule was really tough for Jaedong but it was also tough for other top players like Effort, Flash or even Bisu. All of them were playing subpar in some games. | ||

If JD keeps going like this, it'll be a crash, but it hasn't been that bad. But yea, I think this is good for everyone - JD can focus on getting a Golden Mouse, Effort (being knocked out of the MSL or OSL, don't remember which one) can focus on getting his first SL win, and we can see new players come up (or possibly old players returning to win - Berserker or July winning would be SWEET). As for the matches, I think Effort is favored over Berserker. While they're both good, Effort is far more consistent. July vs. Flash is kind of even. You might look at it and say that Flash is better nowadays and July is past his prime, but July has been playing really well and Flash's TvZ has been lackluster, at best, as of late. | ||
