TLO may be a bit overrated but IdrA is far from it. HuK is imo really overrated. Idra clearly is overrated in the true sense of the word. He definitely is good and a top contender, but people always say he's like the #1 favorite for every tournament and that just isn't true.

Just saying him getting beat by Sjow is not an upset.

Finrod,
Standard opening from both players, harassment from Sjow. Key double drop by Sjow mid-game to prevent HuK from expanding to his 3rd. Sjow in turn expands to his own third, slowly pushes to HuK's main. More harassment. Finally Sjow's forces overwhelm HuK's forces, Sjow pushes through and wins.

I agree, I'm not a huge fan of him either and his comment about top 3 control was a bit overconfident but the amount of hate is ridiculous, especially the Top 3 control comments.

Sjow is a top player as well. I dont know why people hate Huk so much. He just lost a game to some great play for a player in top 10 earning in the world(Sjow is no2 foreiger after Jinro in term of money win)

Maybe its because Liquid is so disjointed, their players are all split up doing different things.

James Harding has been doing a awesome job, he is corny but in a good way, his dry sense of humor fits right in and he looks like he is having fun, if looks like he is having fun then the audience is having fun.
I hope Sundance has the time to watch this tournament and copy it 100%, this is how you do "LAN" SC2". Easy to understand brackets (it cant be anymore simple), a host that takes the burden off the casters, great production values and a stream that works 99% of the time.

A brief translation from the Jinro interview:
He says that they had some trouble finding a good place to place the OGS-house, b/c the moms living in the appartment building didnt want to have a bunch of 20years old living there.
He also talks about the pressure of beeing called the "best foreigner in the world", and that he doesnt think he is THE best.
Then he talked a bit of how he followed his dreams to play in korea.

Dreamhack should keep doing these kinds of tours they are obviously awesome!

Morrow can't seem to get a break. MC is everwhere! We are going to have no idea what this kid is capable of if he keeps getting put up against starcraft jesus in the first round.

Despite being in code S, I don't think he's in the top 30 worldwide. I view him a lot like i did IdrA in the beta. Since the beta IdrA has improved immensely, however, out of the entire beta I lost only one ladder game to IdrA and yet he was still insanely hyped despite being pretty bad (during the beta). Again... IdrA is pretty solid now. I've lost a couple games recently to him and yea, he's improved a ton, but i see HuK now like i did IdrA then and I don't feel that way about anyone else in code S.
I hope to see HuK change my mind like IdrA did, but the problems he had in the Sjow games are the types of problems I see that will swallow him up. His decision making and response time was just very slow and I think it made clear a lot of holes in HuK's game.

I wonder why such a well produced tournament is held on a weekday...

I want to do very, very, very bad things to the blonde guy at the aftonbladet stream. He might be the most annoying guy I've ever laid my eyes on.
