Because it's been proven in the past that Curious can beat Oz... because Curious has beaten Oz o.O Anyone can beat anyone in SC2. Remember NaDa vs. Inca? Or when Bomber lost to Byun in the Ro8. And those were Code S. Oz more or less secured his Code S spot so that finals didn't mean much. Or maybe it was just a bad day for Oz. who knows. But today, for Oz vs. Curious the better player won. Don't say Curious had a bad day either because he didn't. If he had a bad day, he would've been in Bomber's 4th place spot. Please stop dodging the fact that your claim is over the top. People had plenty of jusitification to bet that Curious would beat Oz again, because Curious crushed Oz in a long BoX series when they played not too long ago. The only person making excuses here is you. "I can't believe people would even think that Curious could beat Oz." -> "Anyone can beat anyone in SC2." Okay thanks for that. Contradicting yourself is one way of going about an argument. You're clearly confused. Curious beat Oz because Oz didn't care. Do you vote against Mvp whenever he plays Bomber just because Bomber beat him in Code A? Just because they caught their opponent off guard or whatever in the past doesn't mean they're a better player. Am I saying Curious blows? No. I'm saying Oz is a better player. That was Code A, something players use to get to Code S. He got to the point where he can easily get in Code S, do he didn't care about the finals. Same as Bomber vs. Mvp
You're clearly very, very confused. Just because both of them were already allowed into Code S doesn't mean that they won't try their best. In front of thousands of people, with a bigger amount of money and their team's reputation at stake, they take the games lightly? :D confused kid is confused.
BTW: watch curious vs Oz Code A finals. Tell me who did not try their best. Maybe you can do better.

I think something people don't appreciate enough is that Oz has been steadily improving since he stopped being a coach for Fou and became a player for FXO and that is a big deal since you get way more practice time. Like... if you watch his Code A games, he's been steadily improving and he's also been improving since his Code S days.
Not only that, but being a former coach means that he's better at analyzing players and preparing for players so this lull in GSL is much better for him.

That's one of the reasons why I picked Oz to make it through to the next round But I can completely see why some people picked Curious over Oz... because of the roflstomp Curious gave Oz last time (4-0 was it?). The other reason why I picked Oz is because I just plain like him
I'm just not a fan of people (e.g. devPLEASE) being so arrogant to say that the previous loser wasn't trying, is ten times better than the winner, should always beat the winner, and that anyone picking the winner to beat the loser again in a rematch is just plain silly because it can't happen.

Bomber hasn't really played well in months. Such a shame because he is really good :/.

Okay. I'm not trolling, I was just questioning why people are voting against a rapidly improving Protoss player that at least attempts to show, or even shows new play and choosing a player that hasn't shown anything game changing (like DRG has in his debut) or even super solid play. I compare Curious to Virus in the sense that he's just a pretty good player but not like a DRG or NesTea or even Leenock.

It would be better if you posted that before the match (perhaps you did)

He was better than a 1-4 record suggests.
The Inca games Inca was just taking insane risks both games and his lucky numbers came up, he didn't micro great in game 2 but it was over anyway.
Game 1 vs Curious - Bomber plays a pretty beastly ZvT. Game 2 vs Curious - Bomber lost and deserved to lose but he looked about as good as you cant whilst losing. Game 3 vs Curious - Scouted Proxy Rax, lost the SCV building it and is way behind thereafter.

Bomber wtf man... losing to InCa. :-/ Maybe InCa has improved, but still. I'm just glad Curious was able to pull through.

Looks like Bomber Bombed *bu-dun chick*

dangit, Inca so close. I do expect him to win the Code S season ending in December 21... just in time for the end of the world.

I see what you did there... except he is not mayan.

Wow did not expect bomber to do do badly and inca to do decently.
|
Awwwwww, Bomber. 
Nice to see Curious through though.

Oz vs Inca game 3. That is what cheese games are supposed to be like. That is why people say "in BW, a 4-pool executed by a D player is very different than one executed by a B player".

Don't be so hard on the poor guy. He's already been banished from Aiur.

I don't even understand what happened to Bomber. Wasn't he supposed to be one of the best players in the world... or something?
|
Inca vs Oz game 3 : it is just amazing how good of a micro these 2 players have. Inca was one game away from taking first I'm pretty sure once he improves his pvz greatly he's gonna be a consistent Code S player like he was before. Still his biggest fan <3

Come on man... Curious Oz and Inca are all very good players. Losing to them doesn't automatically mean you are not one of the best players.
