Dear is way less predictable than Rain while having just as good mechanics.

So...Dear has to be the favorite for Blizzcon right? He's clearly the best Toss, he just stomped all over the best Zerg, and between this tournament and the GSL he's handled everything some of the world's best Terrans could throw at him.

I guess it's time to start talking about Blizzcon right? Did this aligulac simulation based off
1) Naniwa is favored over Revival in the play in game so I just put Naniwa in the bracket
2) aLive gets top 2 in his WCS AM Challenger group so he gets the 13th seed and Mvp gets the 14th seed

*will probably adjust some in favor of Dear after his rating is updated

Started the series cheering for soulkey. Halfway through it im a Dear fan and thinking about hitting up the ladder again as Protoss. Wtf never even cheered for Protosses that are not called Naniwa or Liquid players until now

I've touched SC2 like twice this year, and even I'm thinking of firing it up again.


Do it for Dear.

The bronze league will tremble at my sight.


Glad to read it.

dude it was ever since that time that I saw the potential in him. I was cheering him (and Flash) the whole way.

He's got that special something about his play. I called the same thing about Soulkey back when he first switched to SC2 and the MLG KeSPA invitational tournament, too. You can just see there's something subtle and different about these players, you can see they WILL win championships.

He's not quite as ridiculously good as rain is with his mechanics. A lot better about feeling out timings though.

Dear totally deserves this S3 title. He beat GSL Korean champions of all 3 races starting from the quarter finals. MC (Protoss), Maru (Terran), Soulkey (Zerg). All those wins were pretty one sided too.

But now he'll have to face Teaja in Blizzcon first instead of Hero. He's rather face Hero I would think lol.


Summer's over yo. Pretty sure he wouldn't mind playing anybody.lol

The unfortunate thing is in a few weeks Blizzcon will happen and if Dear doesn't win, people will forget all about him.


People's expectations for Dear will be higher than they should be, I expect people to have tunnel vision and forget that there's 15 other really good players there.

But I don't think people will forget about Dear, and his results in 2014 will likely be pretty good.

The consecutive 4-0's at such level are kinda insane. Especially after seeing his opponent in the semi-final 3-0'ing another protoss. That's some b-word level awesomeness right there; but let's wait some months and see how it goes. We can safely say that right now Dear seems to be dominating, and with ease and finesse.

I think he is the favourite, mostly because PvT seems slightly Protoss favoured, and there are more terrans at blizzcon. However he's only a slight favourite, and I honestly wouldn't be that surprised if he lost to Taeja in round 1.
