Wins:

1) Spanishiwa: cause he's the greatest SC2 player in the world.
2) TLO: I like his playstyle, and he does good stuff for the community (ei. his charity streaming)
3) JulyZerg: I like his aggresive micro, and he doesn't afraid of anything. (I dunno if he's attending MLG or not)

Fails:

1) Major: It's hard to cheer for someone when they have such a bad personality.
2) Incontrol: Flames TL threads, and seems fairly childish.
3) Catz: Saw him constantly flame the other team while streaming his HoN games. Come on man, this is exactly the type of thing that makes the dota/hon/lol communities incredibly shitty. =(

Hopes to succeed

1. Liquid`Tyler - To be honest, I feel he's a really smart player that just doesn't practice enough to actually succeed and get some big tournament wins under his belt, I really really hope thaet before Anaheim, he decided to steup up his game and actually practice and take it all much more seriously.

2. Boxer - Just because he's awesome and hasn't been shining lately.

3. Sheth - He's a really amazing player that I feel people look at and say 'oh hey, it's Sheth, he's really good' then move on. I think he deserves a big tournament win like MLG, he's put a lot of work into the game and a lot of thought, and I think he certainly has the ability to win MLG.

Hopes to fail -

Man, I don't dislike anyone. :[ (except for maybe Desrow)

1. Desrow - he's an asshole.

2. CatZ - I feel he doesn't put enough time into the game to really succeed, I see him stream HoN often and playing Starstrikers a lot of the time, and he hasn't been able to make a big splash. I feel like he has potential, but I feel he doesn't play enough to really get better and compete with the 'big boys'

3. Cruncher - I just don't like him, his playstyle and I don't think I ever will. o.o

Winning:
1) DRG - basically because I wanna see him in Code S next reason, rather than struggling through the qualifiers again and maybe not even making Code A
2) Boxer - duh
3) Naniwa - he looked unstoppable leading up to the TSL3 final and since then has been still playing well, but seems to have lost his aura of dominance. I wanna see a strong performance from him

Losing:
1) Ret - nothing against the guy, I just have a feeling that this isn't gonna be his tournament
2) Rain - playing through the open bracket, but it looks pretty strong. I don't see him qualifying for the group stages
3) Jinro - again, I'm a huge Jinro fan but based on his recent form and the strength of the open bracket, he's gonna have his work cut out for him here
Don't hate the player, hate the game

Wins:
1. TLO!!!!! I love him and he does so much good for the community.
2. Boxer. nothing else to say about that
3. White-ra: because he's awesome and special tektics.

Fails:
1. Major: The stuff you do consistently puts progaming in an annoying and useless light to people outside the profession altogether and the community.
2. Spanishiwa: You rode your little style way overboard on popularity, and have yet to do anything huge in tournaments against the better players in the world.
3. Koreans (minus boxer): I just want some foreigners in the top 3, I really hope they have been practicing or we will see another Korean invasion this MLG.

Rooting for:

Destiny - He's improving sooo fast, and beating some really good players.
Jinro - in a huge slump, went from ro4 quality to the bottom of Code A,
IMMvp - Has really been in a slump lately. He's so insane when he performs, but lately is just playing way under his standards.

To do well:
Boxer and any slayers member
DRG
megumi - she is awesome
Huk because hes friends with MC and MC is funny.

All of my hopes to do well are all foreign players besides megumi, she is just an awesome person. Yes i say Huk is foreign because he lives and practice in korea, and he is also from canada so hes basically foreign to the US.

Hope to fail:
Destiny - just because most people think hes going to do well but i doubt he will win majority of his games. Dragon pwned him 4-1. He wont have time to analyze his opponents to develop a main game plan.
Idra- he is a baby and cries too much, he just needs to have fun instead of getting stomped by MC


Everyone else can do bad so my players can do well.

Hope to do well:

1)QXC - inspirational run in the GSTL
2)Idra - always entertaining
3)Boxer - do we need a reason?

honorables: Sheth, Tyler, Incontrol, Catz, TLO, DRG, painuser, HD

rooting against:

1)MMA - just cause i want there to be a different podium every MLG
2)Ganzi - never really liked his playstyle, or lack thereof
3)Major - for all the reasons previously mentioned

Succeed:

1. Liquid`Tyler: He is one of the best players in the world..... If he would commit more time to the game and I feel like he has been practicing well.
2. Destiny: Really unrespected and unappreciated.
3. LzGamer, Incontrol, etc.

Fail:

Koreans: Want foreigners to reign supreme for once.

Wait a second... You want Tyler to succeed because he doesn't play enough and you want Catz to fail because he doesn't play enough?

I do not comprehend.

What I want to see:

Idra 3-0 MC. Just for the kick of it gotta see the look on MC after that kind of loss, and I really dig that "not really noticeable, but you can almost be sure you saw something at the corner of your eye" kinda "evil smile" Idra gets after he beats someone noteworthy. Nothing can beat that.

Boxer - While Boxers level is definitly above the average MLGer, I feel like the invite should've gone to someone who actually preforms well in the GSL atm.


How can you hope for Boxer to lose? Are you even a Starcarft fan? Hoping for Boxer to lose is like blasphemy!!

Hope to win:
SlayerS_'BoxeR' - Would be so bad ass to see the emperor win this.

White-Ra

Liquid'Jinro

Hope to lose:
I guess I'll go with any of the EG players, haven't been much of a fan of them lately.
I didn't come to play..I came to win. Now lets play.
