Am I the only one finding that the CEVO site is impossible to get to? I've been trying for weeks, and I can never get in. There is always a server not responding error.

oh wow VT 4-0 EG
So its VT vs rS in the semis then..

To be completely honest, I don't think EG's lineup has many more accomplishments than ours, discluding DeMusliM and IdrA. They're a top team, but without using those two players, I wouldn't consider them a heavy favorite.

Quoted for truth.

I Like VT in the semi's for sure over rS. Granted I hope Maker does well, he's a pretty awesome dude.

Whoever picked the lineups for EG vs VT really dropped the ball. EG's lineup was fine, but the matchups they chose were awful. Axslav vs Azz and strifecro vs gix? Oo why give 2 mirrors when u coulda had a zvp and a pvz. I think that hurt eg a lot, since they were the upper seed and could have chosen all 4 1v1 matchups.

I'm the one who chose the lineups. First off, the starting map was Scrap Station for this match. On any other map, I would have put LzGaMeR against giX, but Lz wasn't that confident on Scrap vs. a zerg and he requested to play Future, which I allowed. giX being a zerg would have had a map advantage against Lz and Axslav, so I decided to put StrifeCro up against him because that would have canceled out the map advantage not to mention the fact that Strife is very strong ZvZ.

I chose to put Machine up against Pokebunny because he felt confident in beating him. Strife doesn't share the same confidence vs. terran. Also both Machine and Strife didn't want to play against Azz, so I was left to put Axslav against him. Ax already wasn't feeling well (not to take anything away from Azz or VT because Ax could very well of still lost 0-2 even if he was feeling 100%), but agreed to play anyways because he felt confident in winning.

I don't feel that I "dropped the ball" as you said. VT is a solid team with a nice group of players who can take wins off any top team. I applaud VT and wish them luck throughout the remainder of the playoffs.
