So what are yours ?
You predicted the Dreiven/Mondi result ? xD
Some upsets might happen again.


Maybe they didn't go deep enough into their explanations, which is why my comment is stupid. I think the favourites are clearly Nony, JF, Dreiven and Draco. There wasn't really enough analysis to make me think otherwise, especially given the map pool.

And the worst ever comment was just to make fun of Plexa from our IRC discussion. This previews is great even if I disagree with a lot of it!

Man, all the protosses in the ro8 are just so ridiculously strong. I can't even see another race getting into the semi-finals, never mind the finals.

draco > whitera
jf > dinot EASILY
nony > gosia (most looking forward to this series)
brat > dreiven (dreiven is great but brat has him here)

Dinot's game 1 bo was so incredibly illogical, bad and horrible I cant believe he recovered and won the next 2. He played really good too for the most part in game 2/3 (wtih some luck, but we all get that eventually). JF is on another level. Going 3 games with Rondo and really, coming back to win the 2 he did indicates his out matched against one of the premier protoss of our day.

brat_ok is a tvp specialist. Dreiven on the other hand if he is going to be beat it will be tvp. If he gets past this he is a favorite to win the tourney. The implications are huge but I think a lot of you are about to be really really surprised by the secret russian weapon.

nony destroys zergs. He makes units while the rest of the protoss' of our day takes a 3rd or techs to turtle to a 4th. Gosia I hope you read this and know that if you wanna stand a chance you need to monitor nony's army and not overextend yourself. IF you get caught making drones for that 5th base when nony only has 2 expos.. you will be "not for long for this earth" to quote artosis ROFL.

draco white ra is blah for me. Both awesome players but playing the most boring mu in the game and both arent particularly amazing at pvp. Great sure but nothing to tell your kids about. Draco should come out on top imo.

Is there a place where all of the games are recoded? Also whoever did the observing for the second map of the first match with retired didnt do a very good job. I will gladly replace him if need be, seriously.

Kennigit was actually removed from the position due to his terrible observing skills. Thank you for your concerns. He will return August 8th, several months after the TSL to ensure he can have no affect on it whatsoever.

If I am not mistaken, it is a 9-pool speed build, where he makes 12 lings for a run-by. Since most tosses do a forge-first FE these days, it has proven to be quite effective: the cannons at the nat don't help when 8 surviving lings are in the main mineral line.
Force staff is the best item in the game.

I'm pretty sure anyone would gladly obs for TSL games. Although, some would do significantly worse than Kennigit, like me for example.
