I'm really wanting Destiny or BoxeR to win. I've been a big fan of both for quite a while now.

Its so hard to choose 3 players I want to do well, and even harder to choose 3 players I don't want to do well.

To do well:
-Destiny: He's better than people give him credit for, and he has one of the most exciting styles of zerg play. He really needs to do well so he can shit some of his haters up.
-Jinro: Someone else who needs a good result. He hasn't been doing well in or out of Korea, but even so is one of the best players in the tournament. Unfortunatly he's coming through a stacked open bracket.
-Tyler: I like Tyler, so I want him to do well. Simple.


Other players I'd like to do well are Demuslim, Whitera, Naniwa, Huk and so many others.

To do badly:
-Idra: I don't like how he carries himself and every time I support him I end up dissppointed.
-DRG: I love his play, but seeing him getting eliminated by a foreigner I support would be amazing.
-Maj0r: Once again another player who I love to watch, but I don't like his attitude and the way he acts and hopefully some disappointment will teach him some humility.

Liquid'Tyler aka NonY.

He will rise up as the best player in America some day I promise you all! *shakes fist*

Edit: Forgot to put down my other picks.

To do well: White-Ra, Select.
To fail: Idra, DRG, Major.
Rachel: First game. oGsMC: Yea. Rachel: Dark Templar. oGsMC: Yea. Rachel: Countered. oGsMC: Yea. Rachel: Were you worried? oGsMC: What?

3 to win:

IdrA, i guess im a bit of a fanboy, love his bluntness and tbh i think he is one of the more skilled sc2 players outside of korea. he always does well, and im happy when he does.

Nony, Probably the most talented foreign BW player, and he hasnt done a lot in sc2 yet, hoping he can become as big in sc2 as he was in BW!

Machine, imo he is a very good player, but is heavily underated and hasnt achieved a lot. he will make it big some day.

3 to fail:

Major. The guy made a COMPLETE ass of himself with the Dox cup thing, and appar he was really bad mannered against tGun when he lost to him in the TL open. He doesnt deserve to do well, even if he is good at this game (im not convinced he is)

BoxeR. im not going to bother explainnig, im going to get hate no matter how good my reasons are.

Destiny, the guys cool, but he abuses infestors (not saying infestors are imba, but people just cant deal with 10+infestor it seems) and people think he is good. he simply isnt that great, when his style is figured out, he isnt really going to be a good player anymore.

Succeed:
1) Liquid'Tyler/NonY-the man has been slumping hardcore recently but if his stream is any indication he still has what it takes to be at the top with unit control, macro, and refinement, i just want to see him back up there again after crushing the open bracket naniwa style
2) FXO players, particularly QXC but also the others like tgun, slog, and optikzero who dont perform as well despite still having great skill, leading people to underrate them
3) Liquid'Jinro-he started his amazing run after crushing an MLG, and currently i believe his slump is a mental one which is not easily fixed but he still has the ability to take a championship/place highly if he can overcome this mental issue and return to being that epicly dominant Jinro we know and love :D

to fail, absolutely no one everyone has worked so hard to get where they are and the competition is so fierce that i believe it is a massive disservice to the players to mark them down as wanting them to fail, regardless of the reason

To win; White-ra, Boxer, Jinro. I don't really want to see anyone failing, since most of the guys in MLG worked hard to get where they are. What I DON'T want to see is another lame drama, starring Idra.

your Spanishwa comments are fairly harsh, I don't think anyone thinks he's the best player in the world....

People enjoy watching him because he uses creative and somewhat crazy builds,

Also his Icefisher build I believe has improved a lot of players play, Am just a gold leaguer myself, but Its done wonders for my play, just by copying some of the fundamentals of it to suit my playstyle.

Personally, I'd love to see

IdrA get another major tournament under his belt
Jinro to place well
DRG to place in Code A/S spots so we can watch him more in the GSL

Hope to win:
Boxer for a fairy tale run at MLG.

Hope to lose:
Major to lose his first 2 series matches in the open bracket and then someone take a photo of him face palming.

i cant say i have ever watched a spanishwa game (dont get me wrong, i spend most of my days playing/watching sc2) but from what i can tell its just delayed gas, and from talking to people and reading forums, its not a new build, just he took the name and made it popular

To avoid getting yelled at I'm just not going to say who I'd like to see stomped. Anyone who practices enough deserves the win.

There's way too many people I want to see win. I guess I'm most hoping for a Jinro or Tyler win though. IdrA would be amusing because of all the haters.
In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

I too have a problem with hoping somebody will fail. They all put a lot of work into it, so I hope to see some great games from everybody, because they can't all win.

I would like to see HuK go far, but if the brackets don't align in his favor, I can't see him beating DRG. I hope he can prove me wrong though.

I don't get all those people wanting Spanishiwa to fail, he seems to be a nice guy and he isn't arrogant or anything like that... weird.

to do well:
1) Socke: He is my favorite player and I hope he does really well to get the recognition he deserves.
2) Tyler: Sometimes he sounds pretty arrogant, but he never blames his losses on imbalance and I love watching him.
3) ToD: I like him since WC3 and even more since the Homestory-Cups. He is able to win against top players and hopefully he does well.
Edit: 4) Naniwa: I love watching him since a long time (He was my winner in the TSL bracket contest even before MLG Dallas)

I don't want anybody to lose, but I wouldn't be sad to see some players fail:
1) Koreans, because I'm not very interested in Korean vs Korean games at MLG and I don't like the awkward interviews and ceremonies
2) players like Destiny, Spanishiwa, TLO ... They have a bad skill to fans ratio and I don't want to read the forums If one of them succeeds.
3) Players who act like kids: Major, Idra (If he doesn't act like a kid and doesn't blame imbalance for his losses, I actually like him), Skew, ...
