It's gonna happen. Best shot at winning we got is if Seed gets Nestea and then DRG or if MC plays Nestea in the finals.
We need a HerO!

Or you know, if both MC and Seed win their Ro4, lol.

We're dangerously close to a no-terran Ro4 after only 2 T in the Ro8. Hope Byun can make it to the semis.

Then, I don't care about the finals, just want to see an amazing serie !


Don't worry.Byun will beat Nestea and Seed to the finals.


I don't know, Nestea isn't as scary as he was back in early 2011, but still can pull victories over insane opponents...

Oh and I'd like that Naniwa makes it to the semis and even the finals (Foreigner ! Foreigner !) but it feels more like a dream to me...

NesTea will smash Byun and get to the Ro4, then Seed will take out Nestea. Naniwa will 3-0 DRG, 3-0 MC, and then 4-0 Seed in a PvP finals.

You got no idea how scary Byun is when you see him play tomorrow.
Watched his stream if you have a chance.

He got sick builds.

Its this kind of playstyle for MC, in the final game which will make him a champion again. He is infamous for his 2 base all-ins, and he did try to do it twice that game. But he made the right decision, backed off and macro'ed up when he saw that it would be an uphill battle. This kind of varied strategy will keep his opponents guessing and make him much less an unpredictable player - a trait which makes a true champion among champions.

This is the kind of "danger" toss have been facing for quite a long time. The difference is that in the case of toss, they lose in the end.

Which would end this GSL, which has possibly the best RO8 thus far, in such an anticlimatic way. It might happen, except DRG would do it, not NaNiwa :D

Byun is pretty much guaranteed to win the whole thing now. Can't have a GSL without a Terran champion.

I do know about Buyn's skill and that's why i would favor him. Still, Nestea has shown that even if we're no longer in 2011 and he isn't as strong as before, he can manage to take a series from quite anyone (he don't have the best mechanics, but oh god these decisions...)

Think it will be amazingly interesting to see who wins this (Nestea - Byun).

By the way, wasn't it hilarious how Artosis talked about the imbalance of 2 base VR/Colossus during game 2 between Symbol and Seed, claimed that the Infestor buff addressed that, and then Symbol beat that exact same build without using Infestors?

How is it bad for there to be a 3/3/2 ro8 and potentially only 25% terran in ro4 instead of 50%?

Do not misinterpret, I wasn't saying it's necessarily bad (sorry if it seems this way >_>, dangerously might not be the correct word), I'm just cheering for every Terran at this stage of the bracket and hope they go the deepest they can.

He was right, what is your problem? Haven't you seen MC play in 2010-early 2011?

Or do you expect incontrol to predict a player's change of style?


What change of style? he always plays on the edge
