Well, I guess, since I won't be posting any pictures, I might as well write an extremely long and tiresome post that no one will bother to read and no one will notice how stupid I actually am. So, here it goes.

Blizzcon chances estimated by a bronze league scrub who only started playing this game in January:

1. Zest - Pretty consistent in the hardest region with occasional losses to equally good players... and TRUE. Hopefully he emerges the way he should have done in the GSL last season. Winning it.
2. herO - herO has a pretty easy bracket. aside from Bomber, no one should pose a real threat to him. He could also be cheesed out of the tournament by MC. I hope that happens, I don't really like him
3. Innovation - Provided that he doesn't lose to soO in the second round, or Zest in the semis, he could beat both Bomber and herO. I think...
4. Bomber - looking amazing right now. Or I'm just stupid. Jaedong should not be a threat. MMA or Stardust also.
5. soO - If It weren't for the Kong aspect of the past year, I would have put him first. Alas...
6. Taeja - If his wrists don't die, and soO goes all Kespa cup on his backside he could get to the finals. He did beat both Zest and Innovation before.
7. Polt - used to be Sir Polt of Terran - If he can keep it up, he'll get beaten by Bomber in the semis, right after he snipes 6 or so Medivacs full of units just because Bomber will make 56 Marines at a time an remax in 2 minutes.
8. Life - Bad Luck Life, facing Zest in the first round. Maybe, just maybe, he can make it.
9. MMA - actually my darkhorse for the tournament. I don't know... if somehow JD beats Bomber...
10. Hyun - Impresive level of consistency, but in a much weaker region. I don't think he gets past Inno.
11. Classic - Not sure about him, Haven't seen many of his games since season 2. And, he didn't impress me all that much eve though he won. I think soO just choked.
12. Stardust - May Cheesetoss cheese his way to the finals and win it all!!!
13. Jaedong - He promised guys, he promised...
14. San - Bad bracket luck. ro.8 tops
15. jjakji - Never going to leave the ro.16
16. MC - if he decides to play dirty and cheese - he could beat herO - who doesn't scout very often. sOs style. Otherwise, not taking a map.

So, that was my extensive, and yet extremely boring and stupid anal-sis of winning chances for all participants. Hope you didn't loose your hype after reading this

Nice post. I think you underestimate the inconsistency of this game though. Every player has a real chance (1%+) of winning the whole thing and at least a 25% chance of making it past the first round



How do you mean? I don't get it

Well, every player here qualified by doing well at some point except maybe Jaedong. Therefore, they definitely have the ability to upset others.



OK, I get it. But I somehow don't find it possible for say, jjakji to upset San, Zest/Life, soO, Innovation... all in one tournament.

sOs did that last year

sOs came in a little more highly touted than Jjakji is this year. he did fairly well in WCS KR throughout the year, especially in S1

I watched last years Blizzcon, but that was the first tournament I watched. but I'd say, from what I heard form the casters that he upset just Bomber and Jaedong. That he was at least slightly favored against HerO and Polt. I'm probably wrong though.

Actually, that might have been because the casters were Bomber/Jaedong biased

5. soO - If It weren't for the Kong aspect of the past year, I would have put him first. Alas...
6. Taeja - If his wrists don't die, and soO goes all Kespa cup on his backside he could get to the finals. He did beat both Zest and Innovation before.
7. Polt - used to be Sir Polt of Terran - If he can keep it up, he'll get beaten by Bomber in the semis, right after he snipes 6 or so Medivacs full of units just because Bomber will make 56 Marines at a time an remax in 2 minutes.
8. Life - Bad Luck Life, facing Zest in the first round. Maybe, just maybe, he can make it.
9. MMA - actually my darkhorse for the tournament. I don't know... if somehow JD beats Bomber...
10. Hyun - Impresive level of consistency, but in a much weaker region. I don't think he gets past Inno.
11. Classic - Not sure about him, Haven't seen many of his games since season 2. And, he didn't impress me all that much eve though he won. I think soO just choked.
12. Stardust - May Cheesetoss cheese his way to the finals and win it all!!!
13. Jaedong - He promised guys, he promised...
14. San - Bad bracket luck. ro.8 tops
15. jjakji - Never going to leave the ro.16
16. MC - if he decides to play dirty and cheese - he could beat herO - who doesn't scout very often. sOs style. Otherwise, not taking a map.

So, that was my extensive, and yet extremely boring and stupid anal-sis of winning chances for all participants. Hope you didn't loose your hype after reading this

Nice post. I think you underestimate the inconsistency of this game though. Every player has a real chance (1%+) of winning the whole thing and at least a 25% chance of making it past the first round



How do you mean? I don't get it

Well, every player here qualified by doing well at some point except maybe Jaedong. Therefore, they definitely have the ability to upset others.



OK, I get it. But I somehow don't find it possible for say, jjakji to upset San, Zest/Life, soO, Innovation... all in one tournament.

sOs did that last year



I watched last years Blizzcon, but that was the first tournament I watched. but I'd say, from what I heard form the casters that he upset just Bomber and Jaedong. That he was at least slightly favored against HerO and Polt. I'm probably wrong though.

Actually, that might have been because the casters were Bomber/Jaedong biased



I find it funny how biased they can be about Jaedong sometimes. I got the picture he did really well in 2013. but this year he is just bad. considering where he should be

Jesus get a life nerd

Why is being a college student not having a life?

Because your entire "life" is class and bridge at the country club.

-_-
I compose music too

OH GOD even more aristocratic.


Dude doesn't drink because he's too busy smoking Cuban cigars and yelling at servants

This post is wrong in four ways. Impressive

I'm going to try to guess, drinks, not busy, doesn't smoke Cuban cigars, and doesn't yell at servants

replace cigars with dude imo

Templar smokes dudes?
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Well, I guess, since I won't be posting any pictures, I might as well write an extremely long and tiresome post that no one will bother to read and no one will notice how stupid I actually am. So, here it goes.

Blizzcon chances estimated by a bronze league scrub who only started playing this game in January:

1. Zest - Pretty consistent in the hardest region with occasional losses to equally good players... and TRUE. Hopefully he emerges the way he should have done in the GSL last season. Winning it.
2. herO - herO has a pretty easy bracket. aside from Bomber, no one should pose a real threat to him. He could also be cheesed out of the tournament by MC. I hope that happens, I don't really like him
3. Innovation - Provided that he doesn't lose to soO in the second round, or Zest in the semis, he could beat both Bomber and herO. I think...
4. Bomber - looking amazing right now. Or I'm just stupid. Jaedong should not be a threat. MMA or Stardust also.
5. soO - If It weren't for the Kong aspect of the past year, I would have put him first. Alas...
6. Taeja - If his wrists don't die, and soO goes all Kespa cup on his backside he could get to the finals. He did beat both Zest and Innovation before.
7. Polt - used to be Sir Polt of Terran - If he can keep it up, he'll get beaten by Bomber in the semis, right after he snipes 6 or so Medivacs full of units just because Bomber will make 56 Marines at a time an remax in 2 minutes.

Especially given the fact that he looked like he was gonna do really, really well for 2014, given his last bit of 2013.
