I don't think Hero will get past MC. We might have another finals with Taeja vs MC.

MC vs Taeja rematch would only be sick if MC put up a fight, would be crazy if MC beat Taeja though

How could Hero finally qualify? Saw 2 games of him and both were not very good.
|
Surprisingly small number of upsets. This is a very typical ro8 for a dreamhack.
|
need a taeja/JD rematch... I think JD is the only one who can stop taeja
|
Would like to see Taeja vs San in the finals
|
Wow if Jaedong wins, he fight Taeja . . . . Scary opponent . . .
|
Sup with all the P's
Taeja ftw
|
The PvP is strong in this one. Im out!
|
Wow, Mana dropping bombs on the DH power rank. 
I hope San loses a PvP, so Taeja can win in the finals.
|
MC is actually playing well (in HSC we wasn't), so i expect him to put up a fight vs Taeja. But i want JD in the finals.
