The person i am most interested in seeing is SaSe. He is super super talented and despite playing awesomely at IPL 4 narrowly missed the group stages, being knocked out 1-2, 1-2 in the Upper and Lower bracket finals. I think he is right up there with NaNi in skill and i expect him to do very well. In all honesty the only person i really see beating him is PuMa and maybe Ret (Ret seems to have the wood on him). I expect at least top 4 from SaSe, go you good man go!!!!

No mention of MVP.Genius in the preview? I'd say he's one of the top contenders.

It's strange. Naniwa is clearly the best foreigner Protoss, Stephano is the Zerg... but whose the Terran? Thorzain?

either him or Kas, head to head Thorzain won many series between them, but vs other players i think they are equal + Kas might be going to kr so we'll see

Think Nani will fail here, sort of a hangover from gsl. Hopping for a forigner to take
It, especially Sase or thorzain.

Stephano will make that claim, not claim, WIN once he returns to Korea and decides to join the GSL.

Great article, though a "king in the north" joke would have ended the "naniwa" part extremly well!

Put up the official stream of the tournament maybe?????????

http://sv.twitch.tv/dreamhacktv?utm_campaign=frontpage_player_click&utm_source=http://sv.twitch.tv/&utm_content=dreamhacktv

The Official Dreamhack stream should be on top and all the other crappy streams should be separated from it.

What the hell are you guys doing? Putting it up.... taking it down..... putting it up..... taking it down........

lol if i worked for Dreamhack i would be even more pissed off than i am right now.

Nani, T-zain and SaSe in top 4!

What I really want to see, even though I love my Swedish gosus, is beard shaving!

Babyknight vs Puma should be an exciting first round game.

Great preview!

Rooting for Naniwa and Ret! I really hope they both go very far! I think Polt is the favorite though.

After SaSe being a complete dingus vs NajsMajs, I hope he gets knocked out... Completely unprofessional. He knew he had won, all he had to do was give the kid some limelight and then take him out like a proper gentleman. Being a "funny" about it, just makes him an ass.

Keep SC2 classy.

edit: That post game interview... jesus.
