JD vs Fantasy is the real finals (again). The only thing is, Fantasy has not had a lot of TvZ games lately to speak of so its a tough call. If had to pick anyone to knock JD out of the OSL it'd be Fantasy, he is 3-4 against him.

I honestly think Yarnc stands a chance in the finals if Fantasy beats Jaedong

For sure, yarnc has elite ZvT. Fantasy/Jaedong is going to be pretty exciting though.

I really hope Yarnc takes it all. Out of all the players in the finals, he's by far the most deserving of the title. As much as I love Jaedong, I hope he gets knocked out by Fantasy esp after the 3-2 in the Batoo OSL. Yarnc definitely has a chance against Fantasy if they face each other in the grand finals. GO YELLOW[ARNC]!!!! ^_^

Thanks for the recap and summary! I already read the interviews way before but still, it's refreshing to see an article to keep me updated! Thanks Plexa!!!

But here's what I believe as for as I know. The main deciding factor and the huge favorite to win this OSL lies in between Fantasy and Jaedong. No offense to Yarnc and type-b but pretty much, the winner of this OSL will lies in between those two.... I can just feel it....

Jeez, half the ro8 OSL bracket was hite... yarnc, type-b, go.go, Leta. All 4 on that side of the bracket: Hite. I blame Stork for letting Type-B get this far and letting him upset teammates to get to the ro4/ maybe ro2.

I really hope Fantasy beats Jaedong. I mean normally I hope anyone beats Jaedong, but this isnt for the same reason. I think fantasy deserves to win an osl, and a zvz final will be terrible. So in the interest of Fantasy as well as entertainment, I hope he wins in a really close 3-2 series against Jaedong. A yarnc vs Fantasy final would be amazing anyways.

-Do you have any last words?
▲The fans have been very worried about me. Since I have been playing many games in the proleague, they worried that I might carelessly leave out the individual leagues but since I have advanced, I will show my good form in the round of 4. Since the very important proleague is left, I will make this week the "Week of Jaedong".

Oh sweet lord. May god have mercy on SKT1.

With his loss against Type-B, it is now official. Leta is the new Sea[Shield], a player who does well in Proleague and comes far in individual leagues, but falls short near the end. To be fair, he did come farther then Sea ever has. However, now there is no more denying it. Leta is affected by the (T)

Sea curse and it remains to be seen whether he will ever recover from it.

Although I am a big Jaedong fan, I have to agree that Yellow[arnac] vs. Fantasy would be the best case scenario at this point. Although finals upsets have happened in the past (Bisu vs. Savior), I just cannot imagine either Yellow or Type-B being able to match Jaedong in a Bo5 ZvZ series. So if Jaedong ends up defeating Fantasy, then this OSL is practically his. However, if Fantasy manages to defeat Jaedong, then this will either be a unique chance for Yellow to shine or a chance for Fantasy to defeat Jangbi in their King of Silver race.

Kinda sad that Fantasy and Jaedong on one side. Or else we could have seen a Jaedong vs Fantasy finals, but now it'll be Fantasy vs type-b or Fantasy vs Yarnc :<

Great job Plexa

I'm really hoping Fantasy pulls through this time and makes the finals.

+ Show Spoiler +

But murphy's law is telling me that we're going to see a huge upset in type-b beating yarnc using teammate knowledge, fantasy failing horribly to JD, and then type-b choking and getting humiliated 0-3 vs JD.
