Dont think so and sure as hell hope not. I hate extended series. Just give the winnerbracket winner a cash prize instead

I didn't get that impression when I watched Dear demolish Soulkey on it...

I think so too and agree that hitting JD will be the end of the line unless, and this is highly unlikely, JD just does not give it his all. I don't think I have ever seen JD throw a game ever. He is an amazing player and seems to be the only one of the golden BW stock to still be relevant.
Can Jaedong really win the whole thing?

I would guess two series for the player from the lower. I think that's the standard for a double elimination.

But i want him to trumps Life in the final.

TLO does have some funky moves so you never really know I guess but you are right about JD always giving it his best. Even though im a taeja/forgg/leenock/nani fanboy at heart I will be rooting for JD to take this DH. Something about the look on his face. Feels like he is looking at me and will round kick my head off if I defy him. Im rooting for him out of fear

I see it as not beyond reason, but still quite unlikely. This tournament has several players who have defeated him rather handily in the past. This does not mean, as some of the less rational members of this site have suggested, that he is not a top tier zerg.

Thanks for taking me down a notch (he did look somewhat shakey in some PL games), but yeah I soo want him to win against Life. Silly me.

The third is pretty alright to wall off and defend with cannons, but it is of course still z favored =)
