God I hope Jangbi doesn't advance. Almost any of these players in their potential Mu would be extremely exciting but Jangbi PvZ does not ring music to my ears. Jangbi also lucks out with the easiest paths to the MSL ever - Fantasy and Iris (very inconsistent in the group stages) and 2-0's Frozean, who sucks.

He's makes me angry enough to reconsider buying a Samsung phone.

Nice write up to JWD and helpers!

Haha thanks, and I'm right with you about JB. I'd really, really like to see NaDa pull the upset - not only because that means JangBi goes home, but also because that means the series will have involved some entertaining, creative play.

Nope Zero-sum game is a pretty common game theory term:

aided by a very Terran-friendly map pool, fOrGG will take this series 3-1.


edit: I'm sick of hearing this. Statistically 3 of the 4 maps have higher protoss win %'s against terran, with carthage being a graveyard for terran. Why does everyone complain that every single map is terran favored
Mod Edit: Don't bold your entire post
