He also rarely used the unit he's known for dominating with, HTs. I seriously doubt he was showing his best play for an 8 man arena with his PvT GSL group was coming up.

Got a really bad feeling for parting after all this hype but...

Go go Parting! I know those 1 base collosi builds were mindgames for tonight.

Bet on MKP and Parting to get out, but you know what.....I think theSTC is going to surprise some people again.

MKP/theSTC

or

Parting/theSTC

he won't get first either way but he's getting out I think

I'm torn. I want Parting and MKP to advance since it would be a set up for a possible Parting vs. MKP final. But as a Liquid fan, I also want TaeJa to advance. T T

I'm hoping to see some good games today, I'm actually looking forward to the TvTs, MKP plays the matchup very agressively (was especially impressed by his 3-1 against Heart at MLG, even if Heart is not the strongest Terran ever) and I'm curious to see what Taeja has prepared against him. I hope MKP won't be jetlagged (should be fine though), and that he advances.

I just want to see an MVP vs MKP finals :D

I was wrong about Taeja and TheSTarCraft last time, and im ready for them to prove me wrong again.
Go MKP, Parting! Hoping for some great micro today

I root against almost all oGs-trained players. (maybe except Nada) They are so cheesy and I call the oGs house Cheesecake Factory. I'm OK with anyone except theStC advancing.

Ok what the hell? Super was kinda cheesy in TvP for a little bit. MC is not cheesy. InCa has good mindgames, he's not cheesy. VINES was cheesy last night cus he was against fucking luc(heese)ky, STC plays some of the most solid games I've seen in forever besides the occasional marauder-hellion vZ, NaDa was never cheesy. Want me to go on?

oGs protosses basically came up with literally every single protoss strat and refined the promising ones up until the advent of Parting and Oz 3 months ago.

For some reason i don't see parting coming out of this group. Call me crazy, but with 3 of the best TvP players being able to pick apart your style for the past week as well as being tired of MLG spring arena, its gonna be really hard for Parting. I hope he pulls through, but i dunno if he's gonna be able to...

Everyone has their own definition and varied degrees of cheese.

It is an entirely different topic all together.

Parting and Taeja.

MarineKing's decision of being a nice guy and trying to mend the splintered Prime/Startale relationship will lead to only sadness. Nice guys finish 4th.

I'm fully expecting Parting to have a completely different tempo than at the Spring arena. I'm sure him and his coaches prepared enough so he could compete in MLG while not disclosing his strategies for GSL code S. Plus, with only 1 matchup to prepare for, and it being Parting's best, I think he's got a really good shot even though MKP, STC, Taeja are all top Terran.

I think Parting's overrated, but he still has a pretty good chance of getting out.

Basically anyone could get out. I wouldn't be surprised to see MKP/Parting, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised to see any combination made up of 1 of those 2 and 1 of either Taeja or StC.

I would be surprised to see both Taeja and TheStC, however.
