About Gretorp. I think fanboys hating him casting is translating over to gaming in this thread. 2-5 is nothing to be ashamed of. Players in the GSL going 1-10 or 2-10 all the time and they're still in the GSL. Look Jinro, he's like 0-10 in the last 10 games.
"Someone please just knock him out of the pool play already. I don't mind him as a person so much, but just based on results and continued "success" in MLG it makes me sad that the system works in a way where someone can have pretty bad results, but still get seeded."
Who are you to judge on a player like this? What are you? A bronze player? Can't get out of bronze league and try to go with the fanboy pack?

To win: Moonan + MajOr To lose: I don't hate anybody enough to want someone to lose ^^;
|
I want DeMuslim, Destiny and Sheth to do well (and Haypro would be cool).
I'm not saying who I want to lose

how can you say that about jinro when you know deep down the competition facing the two players are vastly different. 2-5 in MLG vs 0-10 in the GSL are two different things.

I want Naniwa to not drop a game this time.
|
I hope DongRaegu wins! Would love to see him at least take a high placement. Other than him I'm rooting for incontrol.
|
To Win : InControl - I know he's not the best out there, but I adore his trolling :D Tyler - That's the perfect medicine I think he needs right now. Idra - Coz I want to hear another of his excuses why Zerg wins tournaments despite being the weakest race :D
To Lose : All the koreans. I don't think they got the edge over our players, so it's time to showcase that. I think most of our players simply get in a loosing mindset when they're playing vs. koreans.

To win: Tyler iNcontroL IdrA
'cause I love all the stuff they do for the community, these guys are definitely the household names of Western SC2. They've all got so much personality, but hopefully all the shows and stuff that they do won't hurt their play (looking to you especially iNcontroL )
Also, I'd like to see Naniwa get a code A spot, he's very talented and he's of the few that would take advantage of it. On a similar note I hope FXO does well as a team, even if they don't win it. Its amazing that they're all going to Korea as a team, and I'd like to see them put the haters to rest and start building more anticipation for their GSL debut.
And MMA. SlayerS fighting!!!!
Not gonna wish failure on anyone... at least publicly. I've got people/teams I'd like to see get a reality check, but IMO its bad form to call people out anonymously on the internet

To Win The secret player from korea. I'd like to see Thorzain and Naniwa rematch in the quarter finals, and then the korean player to just dominate them in the finals.
To Lose St. Bomber and MMA. Not hoping they get owned, but it'd be great to see that the playing field is somewhat level.
To Dream That Slayers_Alicia shows up out of nowhere and beats everyone without dropping a single game. And then in his spare time for fun, he wins the HALO bracket as well, despite never having played before.

Bomber is going to destroy this tournament. Hes going to tear nerds souls and crush them.
|
win: bomber- because i think he's top 4 in the world and deserves to win after his recent... misfortune in another tourney. losira- because of his little GSL documentary and generally seems like a super nice kid mma- GSTL badass
lose: idra- crybaby, fake "bad boy" routine behind keyboard incontrol- touchy and hypocritical (see weapon of choice w/ destiny) gretorp- relatively scales worser as a player than english speaker indubitably

so basicly you aren't really from the united states

to win:
tyler... i still think he's better than everyone else. and if he isn't... well then i hope huk wins.
to lose: incontrol (i think he's a good guy overall but he rubs me the wrong way sometimes. i know im being an ass, just my input)
|
Win: Tyler! Please win, you can do it you just need your confidence back!!! The Koreans, A lot of people want them to lose to show the NA/EU players can hold their own... but I think we need the Koreans to dominate They've always been the Final boss and it gives something to foreign players to strive for to be good enough to make it in Korea. Thorzain, dude is a beast enough said...
Lose! The only person I really want to see lose, and badly is Idra... He is a great player and he will probably do well, but just because he whines so god damn much(and then his fans start QQ'ing even more and ruin LR threads....) I wish for him a swift boot out of this event....

Win: MMA, he's insanely talented and a very entertaining player.
Lose: Idra: Too cocky. Tyler: Not cocky enough.

top 3 idra if he gets a huge amount of terran opponents/doesn't rage and or tilt from losing to tosses tie for 2nd naniwa or thorzain. nani is a GREAT protoss player, however, if he played another race he would most likely only be "average". thorzain has this ability called "produce results" and it seems that it never runs out of moves. Obviously he has some mad hax cause hyper beam was only like 5 charges. "produce results" seems to be infinite. 3rd koreans. The reason I put koreans here is because although they might have better mechanics, they are going to get cheesed HARD and American/Euro style of say ZvZ is MUCH different than KR style.
bottom 3 catz/destiny, their macro is mediocre--it is just a matter of scouting waht the hell they're doing, which is entertaining, funny, and can be good but their "taktics" would work much better if they would improve their macro.
don't know others attending, and I'm too lazy to go look.

i am. i just like people based on their personality... not just because we're from the same country. i don't understand the home team thing since i am irrelevant to their success 
i want sheth to win too, but i was only allowed 3!
