I don't know who I want to win between Hyperdub and HongUn, HonguUn is pretty solid and usually entertaining when he's not throwing around crazy builds that lose him games, while Hyperdub seems to have made a really concerted effort to shake off his cheesy image which is an admirable decision and he actually plays really rather nicely.

I think BoxeR is great in the same veins as Fruitdealer is.
They have soft subtleties in their play that are just more 'entertaining' to viewers. Not necessarily through ingenious strategies or tricks, but through small subtle tricks they employ in their clutch timings like last minute lair cancels, extra greedy macro sacrificing earlier defense more so than the norm, funny placements, cheese mix, etc.
Sometimes, and I mean sometimes, they look 'weaker' because they feel more vulnerable compared to super-solid 'safe and flawless' players like IMMVP or Nestea, who employs a very solid, standard 'textbook race' play style.
Are they weaker than super solid players of the same race? Eh, it's debatable. But calling them 'a step lower' is kinda ,imo, inaccurate.'
Just my opinion though.

Boxer's game did look a lot sloppier than, say, MVP's. Thank you. And this is actually what I'm talking about the most. Marine control was not very good which IMO is the most important (and impressive) aspect of TvZ. Other terrans have almost perfected it and Boxer lost several waves of attacks because he lost his marines cheaply. Not splitting and/or running his whole lot of marines back. If TheWind had opened mutas and gotten up a sizable flock he could've been in a lot of trouble with that control.
Only the marauder drops were truly noteworthy.

Tastosis should really spend some time and study how this format works. I'm way ahead of them every time they start talking about the standings and who's qualified, etc.

well even if Boxer beats TheWind I don't think he'll be able to took down better Zergs like Nestea or Zenio at this moment... but he's surely improved a lot from the past seasons!

Boxer is going to go a huge rampage this season showing the power of macro terran, only to be stopped by BitByBit and his cheese 8)

Wait, this is silly. Why isn't it Boxer vs HongUn and Wind vs Hyperdub now? Hyperdub had harder opponents, and teoretically should be facing the weakest opponent now and vice-versa for Hongun (should be facing the toughest - Boxer). This is just so unfair - why the hell order decides? They should play those games and then if they're tied up - decider match.
