Pulling for IdrA but this is easily the best field we've seen in a while, in terms of skill and personality. Honestly, calling a winner in this tournament field isn't easy at all.

Great writeup as usual! (Lol @ SeleCT beating SeleCT to win the NA Battle.net Invitational).

Great write-up! I especially love the Ret vs. White-Ra preview. It's so perfect. Nobody really knows why White-Ra wins, but he just does. Exactly the same vein as with Boxer.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

Gonna be insane.


we have seen that happen like six times this year... Sjow managed to win once, and only because apparently Idra wanted to feed his mutas to marines in both games and gave him the series.

IdrA has him so figured out its not even funny, unless Sjow 2 raxes him or somehow managed to double his low APM playstyle, Idra will just do what he does to him every series, and keep the multitasking so high that Sjow's low APM cant handle it.

Your aware that multitasking does not equal APM? Idra's multitasking is mediocre and so is Sjow's and this has little to do with their APM (idra's much higher). One can have good multitasking and below average APM as it's not effective (not blizzards new or old and not SC2gears either).

Ofc Idra's the favorite and I can't see him lose to Sjow.

I would prefer saying White-Ra is like Boxer. Their awesomeness just takes over and kick some serious arse.

On the other hand, i owuld think idra would 3-0 and it would be an EG finals.

... How did I not know about this 0_0 I wasn't living under a rock this whole time... I think.

Anyways, I'm fairly certain Huk or Idra will take it.
