If i were Slasher, i would be afraid to lose the hair now.

Koreans going out pretty "fast", unless Idra 'surprises' everyone and gets to the finals. But well, pretty sure that one Korean in the finals.

Predictions:
Idra 2-1 Revival
Puma 2-1 JYP
Elfi 2-0 Strelok
Dimaga 2-1 HasuObs

Sure hope it's JYP.

Pumas TvP is incredible (and PvT worst matchup for JYP). I think Revival has better chances than JYP.

Lol, I am glad that Idra vs RevivaL is going to be the first match, cuz, It's morning for me and I'd better have some sleep.... I don't want to watch it. Idra only dissapoints since his MLG with MC in it.

Am I right that MSK matches for Moscow time? :D

Nothing is better than to wake up, make a cup of coffee and watch sick nerds crushing each other...

Someone doesn't work/ Goes to school... Teeheehee.

Strelok\Dimaga vs Puma finals is going to be super-cool. Though I don't really like mirror match-ups so Strelok vs Revival or Dimaga vs Puma is my choice for finals.

Carmac you are awesome! Please, if circumstances will let you and stars will be aligned for the matter, please, do a video with Uszat. :3

Ok, I am extremely confused by the schedule, what exactly is going on right now? It says Oct. 3rd on the OP for the Day 3 LR. On the ESL site it says Day 2 is Oct. 2nd from 4 to 11 but doesn't give an AM, PM or Time Zone. On the Day 2 LR thread at the top it says the both the Second and the first on the top and is very unclear as to what is going on. There isn't anything on the TL upcoming events or the live streams. What the heck is going on with this tournament, have the Quarterfinals already been played? I'm very confused can somebody please help out.

I'm not sure I can root for Puma ( whom I do like) with his hair like that, it just pains me to look at. Nevertheless I think he'll beat JYP since he's on a massive losing streak vs terran. Although Puma is not invincible vs p lately, Mana has winning record vs him ( 5-2 or 2-1 depending on if you look at it in maps or sets) and Kiwi took a game and nearly the series off him at mlg. The right kind of protoss play seems to hold up against him but I dunno if JYP has the right style to do it. Either way just hoping for good matches between these two.
Dimaga seems like he's on a roll this summer and will probably be fine vs hasu . ^-^
Elfi vs Strelok could go either way provided Strelok doesn't get to host the maps anymore lol. I'm torn on who I personally want to win that matchup though and will be all wiggly while watching.
Revival vs Idra I'm going against the popular vote here and rooting for Revival. His ZvZ record doesn't indicate that he's the likely victor but I have a gut feeling he can pull through.

Even I can get a 70% w.r. playing against Machine and Vibe... lol. We are talking korean zerg here... you are way off in your expectations

Idra's ZvZ has always been his strong point and maybe 15 of his losses are to Zenio, Sen, and Nerchio, some of the best ZvZers in the world. Idra should roll Revival easily, although he shouldn't have a chance against Puma.

It's just their fanboy heart there... He lost miserably to Nerchio and Stephano and even Sheth beats him in ZvZ nowadays..

I have no idea why 1/3 of the people here think that JYP has an edge over puma. Puma is simply much better at tvp than JYP is at pvt.

Also I think this tournament is definitely going to come down to dimaga vs puma.

Hmm Puma's probably my favorite going into the playoffs. Dimaga might just crush everyone though.

Oh crap, IdrA will have to face Puma if he beats Revival.

Really wish brackets could have worked out so they could possibly meet in the finals. ALthough I'm very surprised people are voting JYP to beat Puma. Really?

Cheering for IdrA no matter how bad he played yesterday! ^^
