Uhm, he's not that entertaining to watch at all... But he IS a solid macro player. He's got very strong fundamentals. His approach is basically a machine-type play. No gimmicks, no bullcrap, just starcraft.
That's not entertaining, but it is powerful.

He's very entertaining because you never know when he's going to to a stupid push through a PF defended with 5 tanks and 20 marauders with a bunch of Ultras then BM the Terran for playing a race with no self-respect.
I honestly can't wait to see his games, it will be hilarious to see him BM protoss players and their "low skill cap race" using "massive death ball of stalkers+colossi".

So, how does this work. Is there a seperate stream for every individual game? And they show all the sc2 games on one of them? Or is it that there is one stream and they pick the best matches from SC2, CS, SSBB, Tekken, etc. and show them on the same stream? Cause i dunno if ill buy the HD pass if i have to watch tekken and counterstrike in between starcraft and miss out on some starcraft games.

There's a separate stream for each game.

Will there be VoDs? I enjoyed following the GSL but catching live streams is hard for me. I don't mind paying for the HD feed (and have paid) but it doesn't seem to include VoDs.

the vods will be free, as well as the live stream... it may take 1-2 weeks for vods to come out..
also I don't think you get HD VODs, so keep that in mind
also, replays will be available for this tournament much quicker than for Raleigh.

Considering he qualified for the GSL2, which plenty of really, really good players did not manage to qualify for, I'd say he is a favorite on that alone. He doesn't need to have won anything lately to prove he's a favorite right now. The GSL2 qualifiers are in themselves a huge accomplishment.

The fact you think he would even say anything bad in a offical tourney anymore shows how ignorant you are, let alone thinking he isn't a good zerg player.

Hey folks, posting from my phone right now but I want you to know I've been taking a metric asston of pictures so far. Once the games begin they are asking press to leave though. 
So far the only pictures I've been able to get online were taken on my phone and can be seen on http://www.askjoshy.com Feel free to copy and paste pics from there to here; I just can't right now or I would. When the games start I'll begin posting my higher quality stuff!

You seem pretty wrapped up with IdrA and are infinitely more annoying than the fanboys you're talking about. And how many times are you going to repeat the same line about the protoss death ball?
That said, I expect either IdrA, SeleCT or Huk to take this down.
