He went from being barely known, only playing in the Korean Weekly for an underfunded team that was making itself known through the GSTL to beating Oz and Leenock, winning the last GSL season of the year, making his parents proud after they flew down to see him play in an incredible series and gaining attention from sponsors not only for himself, but for the rest of the team as they have many skilled, unknown players. How could you not want him to do well again? | ||

Lost in GSTL, cant remember any other worthy performance. I guess he will end up like TOP, but Iam open to get proved wrong. This season is quite exciting with players like Jjakji, Leenock, NesTea and ForGG to prove that they are indeed among the best. | ||

I mean i barely mentioned his skill, only that he beat Oz and Leenock, the two star players of FXO. I was mainly cheering for him as an underdog/person worthy of cheering for. His family wasn't incredibly wealthy, but his parents flew down anyway even though he wasn't guaranteed to win. He also came from an underfunded team that was unknown before his tourny run. edit; there were gstl matches after the gsl finals? i don't recall | ||

How could you not want him to do well again? he keeps killing my favorite protoss players (puzzle, and oz), good thing yonghwa beat him last night, but we both know that yonghwa will never make code a for some crazy reason. | ||

Let's see: Jjakji: Took out Leenock (Top 3 ZvT in the world) in a Bo7, shown amazing TvZ play. GanZi: Shown amazing TvZ play all the time, ever since his GSL debut. BoxeR: Defeated Sen in the last 2 series (NASL Bo3, TSL3 Bo5) that they played. | ||

Essentially Jjakji ruined what could have been an amazing season for FXO. That being said, I did get the impression that Jjakji barely made it through to the championship several times. Jjakji should be able to beat Sen, but I think Ganzi has a better TvT than him, and Boxer's TvT last season was pretty solid. I just hope Boxer makes it through. | ||

BoxeR: Defeated Sen in the last 2 series (NASL Bo3, TSL3 Bo5) that they played. who knows, his ZvT isnt his best matchup, but BoxeR randomly loses to about any player if he doesnt feel like winning, and Jjakji still has to prove to be consistent. GanZi will most likely roll over him tho. I guess GanZi will take first, but all those other 3 players all have a chance, with SEn who must give more than 100% of course. | ||
