Great to see Losira doing really well again. Of course it was some sloppy play by sase but a win is a win.

congrats to hero and taeja!

stephano will probably only have to play zvp until the grand finals if he keeps winning

Would have liked to see how well Nerchio could have performed together with Stephano.

So did a lot of the big names lose in the qualifiers and didn't make it?
SC2 was doomed from the start.

Looks like Stephano will take home another championship with only protoss left. Only protoss who can beat him is MC and he's not there.
MC for president

I loved the casters/touch screen analysis desk today but the games didn't feel that great, hopefully better games tomorrow.

uhh... what? Oz has good PvZ and Hero when he is on his game has amongst the best PvZ. This is no cake walk at all for Stephano.

Also.. I make the assumption that the finals has the winner of bracket one vs the winner of bracket two so if you look at the favorite to get out of there being Taeja, then Stephano isn't even the favorite to win the tourney. Taeja when he is on is crazy good. Stephano is good enough to beat everyone there but I don't think he is the favorite in every match.

... idiocy at it's finest.

So I believe that Hero and Oz who both have good PvZ can beat Stephano? Nothing bad there I hope.

I believe that Taeja is one of the top players in the world right now with the way he has been playing in Korean and foreign leagues and believe he is the favorite in the match. Something bad there?

I believe that there are some matches Stephano is not the favorite in but can still win... something bad there?

Grow up or get better arguments. Winning this will be no cake walk for Stephano. Many players are good enough to beat him and some players could even be considered the favorite(Obviously not in your books).

Hmm only see one upset in whole tournament so far, Puma losing to Welmu. Koreans winning everywhere else. Feels like Stephano is the only foreigner hope at all these days. Too bad Nerchio attends like nothing outside of Europe, maybe he could be one too :/

Oz is in a massive slump for 3 months now, he's been losing pretty much every game in gsl and gstl...

When you say he can win, obviously he can, but his chances are not higher than 25% (which is terrible in pro matches).

Hero on the other hand is probably even with stephano.
Favorite players: Stephano, Mana, Polt, Lucifron, Nerchio

Idiocy at it's finest...lol right bro!

Anyway! Take a look at Stephanos last 14 games and tell me why Hero's in it and lost 1-3? Even MC himself fell. I can see Taeja as a possible candidate to beat Stephano but not the other two. I said "korean bias to the fullest" because you clearly ignore the fact that Stephano is better then hero and oz and still favored them over Steph lol.
