Maybe at SC2, but $O$ never won the most important thing: BD's heart.

Every man has his price, but BD's probably really expensive.

Also like Bisu, SoS also has a winning record versus Shine. That's all we truly care about.

His listed earnings from tournaments doesn't paint a picture for his total earnings. It's rumored he makes 25k+ a month streaming on Afreeca. This is based on Shuttle claiming he earned 25k in a month.

I think Inno probably looks the best going into Blizzcon, but he probably won't win and I don't want him to. Blizzcon isn't entirely about being the most mechanically gifted or the most well-rounded; it's about living the hype and riding a wave of fan support to have insane momentum in the finals.

Let's face it, single-elim tournaments are hard to predict. There are some things that are pretty much clear:
herO > Fantasy Life > Lilbow Dream > Hydra
and the winner of Parting/sOs > the winner of Rain/Polt
and and will would have eaten (I know this is jibberish, but seriously, is there a correct tense in English for this?!) my hat if I will have had any and something went differently than this. But then with the obvious weak links out of the way, anything can happen. The introduction of two Korean leagues has really made sure that the people who got into Blizzcon are mostly serious contenders. Sure, some of there were hotter earlier this year than now, but each and every one is championship material.

Conditionals are hard. I think you just mean:"I would eat my hat, were I to have one, if any of the outcomes differ from the above" or something along that line.
Also I wouldn't be shocked if one of the above matches turned out differently from your prediction.

In Western esports most of the money is in prize pools, in Korean esports most of the money is in salaries. Not really a good comparison.
