Nice write up monk

Would love to see Bomber and Supernova advance. Sure we'd have a Terran top 4 but I feel it wouldn't be undeserved. Plus Innovation is more likely to fall facing terran...
Try another route paperboy.

If Supernova makes the top 4 it is undeserved.

Innovation is the best and Maru and Bomber are playing amazing so I would be ok with that.


Supernova deserves it. Personally, Im actualyl said supernova is meeting rain. Cause I kinda dont care about either bomber or first and would rather see supernova v rain semi finals. Guess I'll just pull for bomber and supernova so I can have Terran supremacy.

He has gotten here by abusing hellbats, acv pulls and all inning

I hope Rain beats him 3-0 and then builds 30 manner nexuses


There is nothing wrong with using a strategy that works (Parting's soul push?). Mvp beat a lot of protosses in GSL with scv pulls and he got praises for it.
We can say the same thing about Innovation's TvT. He won against MvP in the world final by being a better hellbat abuser in the match up. (I'm not downplaying his win, just an analogy ).

I wanna be Hipster and say SuperNova. He has been looking good lately, and Rain have choked hard against terran.
And of course, go Bomber :D

So...

Bomber is going to get stomped 0-3, and Supernova is going to win in a close 3-2 series, just because of how these were written up. Also; we didn't state bomber's law or the corollary to it! D:

There is a typo on the front page: "Rain goes up against SuperNoVa, while Bomber faces SuperNoVa!"

Correction: Bomber goes up against First

But I'm off creep... and so I slow down, what are hellions doing here? I don't belong here...

Imagine Maru getting a GSL/OSL title before MKP, hahaha (lets ignore the fact he has to play Innovation first)


Well then MKP would have a serious mental breakdown I would assume. He no longer is the one we used to watch with mouths wide open due to unimaginable stuff he could do with his units so that would probably mean an end to his inside spirit of a pro gamer

Im actually hoping for Bomber vs Innovation finals with Bomber vs Rain semis, but I guess Bomber will fall now or in the semis sadly. I really hope he wins something major soon because he so deserves it in my opinion, love him!

Wow I just realized there won't be a Zerg in the finals! Sorry, I'm kinda slow. I really hope Maru wins it all.

Mvp had a reputation for being boring. Then he had a reputation for being cheesy. It's only lately that he's been really charming all the nerd hearts.

What about the #1 rule of Bomber, Bomber will always disappoint. everything is pointing towards First winning except the Artosis curse, this is going to be a hard one to call.

I was just about to mention, let's not forget Artosis was sure & adamant that First could not lose against Bomber, because his PvT is so good. I feel the adequate criteria has been met for a full-on Artosis curse to take effect, and thus, I believe Bomber will be advancing to the RO4 over First.

I've been wanting to write-up a more rigorous model/understanding of the "Artosis curse", but I think the main factor influencing whether the Artosis curse will take effect is:

-- "How sure does Artosis seem?"
(with special consideration to whether the general SC2 community opinion is in agreement or not)

It appears that the more sure that Artosis is, the more likely it is the "curse" will take effect. However, this must be considered in relation to how contrary Artosis' opinion is to the general opinion of the SC2 community.

For example, Artosis being sure that InnoVation will win a particular finals or match - when most of the SC2 community is also quite sure - means a weaker Artosis curse (or none at all).

But Artosis being sure of something when most of the SC2 community would be wondering why he's so sure = all signs point towards an incoming Artosis curse.
