On the other side, I think Haypro and Spanishiwa will have a hard time at the LAN :/ (and yeah, I don't give a shit about non Z players) | ||

Huk- He is still playing amazing and his showing at the GSTL was great he definitely conquered his nerves and now he will only improve. Slayers Alicia- He is one of the top 3 protoss players imo and I think he will be able to make it out of open rather easily and have a great chance at winning the whole thing. Destiny- I enjoy watching destiny play simply because he has an interesting play style and he's not just the average player and in the past months he has improved quite a bit so I can see making it pretty far in the tourney. To lose Well I don't really have anyone to root against just the opponents of my favorite players  | ||

Boxer: Just for nostalgia's sake... I know he is not very good right now but can't a guy dream? DRG: This cat deserves to go to Code S pronto. qxc: Want him to prove the all-kill isn't a fluke. Bandana Man fighting! Hopes to Fail: MVP: Not that I hate him or anything, but would much rather let someone else have a shot at that code S slot. Maj0r: Seems like a bit of a prick; wouldn't mind if he goes out early. | ||

I was pretty much saying I want him to practice more, and if he does practice more, he'll wipe the floor with his competition's blood because he's a smart player. I also don't think CatZ is a very smart player, regardless of how 'creative' people deem him. | ||

Terrans. I'm biased like that. Also there's too many Terrans I like participating (BoxeR, MMA, TLO, qxc, SjoW, DeMusliM, Pokebunny...). Jinro. He's been slumping, I think he's also giving himself a hard time because of it. He's crazy good and all of you know it. IdrA. The man's pure entertainment even if he loses, so I'm always enjoying his tournament matches. To Lose: Sheth. I don't understand why people like him so much, I know he's a good Zerg but other than that he's the polar opposite of IdrA in any way imaginable. Maybe that's why? idk, just that he's absolutely not my slice of bread. Major/Kitty. You have a reputation and you trample it because of a small SEA only tourney? C'mon. Grow up. megumixbear. Not because I dislike women or women playing video games competetively, simply because I dislike megumixbear. | ||

Destiny, he's pretty active on a music site i frequent, and hes a really cool guy from all the posts ive seen AND he's really good. Ive seen so many people say he's not that good, but he beat Ace & Bomber and put up a good fight against, he's definitely at the level of the top players, he just needs to vary his style now and then. Idra/MVP, Idra just because he gets so much hate, even though he's a really good player. He's been able to beat MMA who again, won the last MLG and went so far in the GSTL and GSL. MVP just because i'd rather see him do well and win than another foreigner since i'd rather see great games instead of just going strong and meh. Runner up, Sheth, he's such a nice guy and a good player. He performed fine, not outstanding but good enough in the GSTL match he was in and i hope he does well. To fail Huk, he has an annoying personality, to me is overrated as a player although he has talent, and i've never particularly liked him. He was always boring to me. ColCruncher, I hate him and he's not a great player. Foreigners in general, except for the ones i hope to win. Hmm, do you play zerg? not sure | ||

1. seleCT- my hero since the time i started sc2. Really the only reason i have advanced to diamond league. 2. MMA- Ideally he is the new boxer, i would say boxer but he really has put his faith into his protege MMA which i feel is the smart choice. 3. Naniwa- Been in a slump recently since his win at MLG and he is one of the protoss' i actually like to watch play. To Lose 1. Drewbie- Ever since he went to Complexity gaming i have had an indescribable hate for him 2. | ||

QXC---cool guy and has gotten beaten up a lot and only against IM has he looked really solid. Then again I still wouldnt take him against MVP in a bo7 ever so I want him to prove he can be consistent Boxer---great guy and player, deserves better in regards to how hard he tries. His history goes without saying. DRG---seems like a cool person and really struggled in code B even though I could see him winning code S. Should do well. to lose: Seems petty to hope another person fails, so wont do it. | ||

Get off the bandwagon and worship someone that you are actually famaliar with. He's not a god, or really a good sc2 player comparatively, more often than not seemingly anymore all he does is cute cheeses.i want to see him crash hard. on the other hand if he plays brilliantly and straight up. tear yourself a path all the way to the finals! -End Rant -MC, He's a beast. he understands his class perfectly with the flawless execution and decision making skills to back it up. but he's in every single major tourney. and nearly always placing top 3 or better. I'd like to see him knocked out early so other good players can breathe easier knowing he isnt gunning around the next corner. *disclaimer, i found TL and started following pro SC about 2 days before the TSL2(it was my first tourney to watch) so i dont know everything in BW, i didnt make an actual TL account until like nearly 2 years later. ...So ironic that you claim that everyone who loves boxer is just a bandwagon fan and doesn't actually know him, when you yourself admit to not even knowing his history. I myself will admit to not being around here when he was playing, but even I had heard of him prior to joining TL - even then, anyone competent can follow the scene and know how Boxer's interacted with the SC2 community: people like him because he's devoted to e-sports. [url=http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=240316This[/url], for example. It's also funny because you accuse people of being bandwagon fans, when you yourself note that he's not famous for his SC2 accomplishments/domination - if anything, that's the direct opposite of fair-weather bandwagon fans who jump on only when their favorite does well. | ||

qxc- I run this guy's fanclub (I'm posting from my phone, will update soon <3) Coming hot off an IM all-kill, this guy will be a force to be reckoned with. An awesome playstyle, personality, and bandana. IdrA- I love this guy, great play and he's funny as hell. Looking forward to a good showing. Naniwa- Nani has made the most awesome 180 in history. Going from a guy that was very disliked to a very lovable guy. Couple that with scary as hell play and the drive to do really well, and youve got a fan in me. Jinro- I've always been a huge Jinro fan and his time is coming. WhiteRa- I hardly need to explain why I love WhiteRa. ))Tyler- I love this guy's style and personality. Sheth- Lapzerg <3. He's taken a lot of flak I don't think he deserves lately. HayprO- I'm the opposite of most posters here I'm that I don't understand why he gets all the crap. He's had poor showings at tournaments, but there's a lot of games he's just a beast in. He's also got a really good dry humor. Socke- "Socke is so laid back he plays horizontally." I really love his play. I can't pick 3! No votes to fail, really. | ||

He is also very fun to watch (one of the few Terrans I enjoy watching). I just love to see this guy succeed considering his background and all. Sorry dude, nut wrong information here.He was pretty awful at BW by the end and in his whole BW career, he had like, 1 month of brilliant play, the rest of his career was borderline a-teamer. | ||

Destiny - Stevens improved by vast amounts and anyone who denies that is simply wrong. Even Huk is saying Steven is really good now, their matches have been very intense...not to mention him impressive victories over Ace and Bomber. Sheth - So manner. A big happy manner bear. Hes so nice and happy, its hard not to root for him, doesn't hurt that hes one of the best zergs on NA. TLO/DRG - I can't choose. TLO is such a good person but DNG has such a great style, I want to see it showcased. I can't pick, so they're tied for 3rd. To lose: IdrA: I feel Greg has a completely toxic personality. I dislike most anything he does. While I take nothing away from him (he has one of the greatest english speaking minds for SCII) I don't like him as a person (from what I've seen) and can't see how people root for him. Tyler - He just doesn't seem to want to play anymore. Listening to him on SotG, all he seems to do is defend 4gate, and despite his talk hes been unable to pull a result in quite some time. Maj0r - Another toxic personality. The SEA smurfing thing as well as his past makes him someone I certainly don't want to see in the spotlight. | ||
