He's playing really well but I doubt he could take out MC. MC looking pretty dominate right now. Even if he takes out MC, I wouldn't doubt Mana's PvT especially after that dismantling of Puma. | ||

Intel Extreme Masters live events are _ALWAYS_ bo3 in groups and bo5 in SINGLE ELIMINATION playoffs. P.S. TSL Killer is hysterically amusing! | ||

Select played very sloppily vs Killer and MC is several times better than him. He also has good unit/ht control compared to what Huk displayed vs Tarson today. | ||

MaNa > mOOnGlaDe (MaNa has looked so so strong so far, not dropping a single map) Socke > Kas (this could go either way) PuMa > Nerchio (Nerchio is so fucking good, but in a bo5 I think PuMa will take him out) I really just hope for great games! | ||

If memory serves me correctly i believe i saw somewhere that 48 hours after the event VODs will be available? Or maybe 48 hours after the games were played. | ||

Moonglade took out huk but I guess I didn't see mana vs stephano. Appears mana has stepped up his game. It is still his worst matchup but he has simply shown more results recently and worked very hard on his PvZ. | ||

From what i have heard It WAS his worst matchup; he apparently spent a butt load of time "figuring it out" - similar to IdrA's scenario after he got smacked by Zenio - he put a lot of effort into his ZvZ. | ||

Nerchio is clearly the second best Europe player right now and i see him be able to take a GSL finals title. The only issue with him is that he cant accept my superiority over him. And to the Mana vs Puma series , Mana isnt at a level of Puma if you saw the series from Puma vs Sase then u know where its at dont know why Puma decided to play that odd in those series. And to my fellow toss underlings outta there stop FFEing Nerchio shows why its absolutely useless and i never played FFE because i knew game maths dno why most toss prefer FFE . You need to wake up and come back to reality lol =)) Inception time is over  Nerchio was the guy who lost to White-Ra easily 3-1 a week ago. And he's good at online tourney only, not at LAN. Clearly doubt him to make it from code B to A, don't eve mention GSL code S final in here lol | ||

There is currently no foreigner capable of taking a GSL finals, not even close. And no, Nerchio is not clearly the second best player in Europe. There are too many good and proven players to make that claim. Ret, naniwa, thorzain to name a few. | ||

He also defeated Stephano, and I really rate him higher than Moonglade. The games today/yesterday just were not good. Moonglade advanced, but I think Stephano is better. Especially in a Bo5, Moonglade seems to love his roaches and I´m sure Mana can figure it out. | ||

Puma's TvZ is no joke, but Stephano definitely showed us that he's touchable. Too close to call, imo, but I'd love to see a Nerchio upset. Socke / Kas could go either way. I think Socke will be happy with this matchup for a couple reasons. First, he's dodging the Koreans, and second, his PvT has looked really, really good this week. He really outplayed Select, and I'm not sure that Kas is on Select's level. Both great players, but I've got to give the nod to Socke. Mana is the obvious favorite over Moonglade, especially after his utter domination of his group, but if nothing else, Moonglade has taken a huge step forward today in silencing the doubters. I still expect Mana to win, but a Moonglade upset would not surprise me. MC vs Select... Everyone is going to favor MC here, but Select is playing amazingly well. I will say this: MC is virtually cheese proof, and he seems impossible to harass. Select tends to prefer a harassment based, drop heavy play style, and I really don't think it will be able to crack MC. That said, MC hasn't looked as invincible in this tournament as he has in past events. Select definitely COULD win... But MC is hands down the favorite. Mr. Bitter. Cmon son you know whats up. SELECT son <3 we got thissssssssssss! SeleCT fighting!! | ||
