Well from a pure mathematical stand point is it just unlikely, to be exact is the chance that you will have your best matchup in 8 matches in sucession about 0.015%. Meaning that Elfi would need to attend 6561 more qualifiers before it will occur again ^^ Okay this is assuming that there is an equal amount of races signed up for the tournament and that all races have equal chance of winning, which might be a weird assumtion given the current state of SC2 x) But still, pretty lucky, I find it hillarious though, GO ELFI  Yeah elfi has been lucky, but remember that he took out major and bly last week to make the semifinals. While he's been super lucky this week, he can take out good non-protoss players as well. | ||

Still, super exciting series so far, sort of rooting for Roof so we can see some more PvZ in the finals. | ||

I don't know if this is possible, but I'd love for the casting to start at ro8 and beyond like the korean qualifiers tomorrow. Just because of the different story lines of whos going to qualify and being the last qualifier, I think it would make it even more epic than just the ro4. | ||

Voids are completely worthless against fungal, carriers do fine as long as you upgrade them well and don't donate them for no reason | ||

im seeing alot more pros going carriers now in PvZ that "unbeatable zerg army" would actually look completely beatable if the toss has 200food of carrier/storm the same way the zerg had 200food of broodlord/infestor/corrupter. instead the protoss army was maybe 40food smaller because he was harassing around the map with 36 food of gateway units and 4food of warp prism carriers when they reach a critical mass actually counter nueral parasite because the infestors come in with their 7range nueral and carriers blast them with 9range launch and fast up-front dps. carriers do heavy up-front dps taking out nueral parasite really quickly. plus there are high templars standing right behind the carriers and they come in and lay down storms on the entire zerg army and infestors die in like a single storm so carrier+storm is going to become the normal lategame pvz composition within 2-3 months once hero/squirtle/seed start showing how to use it. i as a master protoss have found its much much easier to win with that than with archon toilets (but you still get a mothership but normally just keep the carriers in front of the mothership using the cloaking field more than the vortex heck also throw 2 archons into the carrier army just for splash against corrupters i normally do that to. with 6-8 ht's for storm | ||
