This series is going to be awesome, but I'm going to give it to Idra. His ZvT is just too damn solid as soon as it hits the mid game. | ||

Seal is hard to say. He has times where he displays pretty unbelievable understanding of the game. Others he seems to be choke city, but I don't see how Idra is any different. Furthermore, Crank and Seal have demonstrated outstanding ability vs extremely strong players (inside and outside of GSL). Watching Crank play is pretty spectacular. SlayerS_Min let us spectate some SlayerS vs SlayerS training games from first person, and it must be said that Crank is Gosu as hell. Given that appearance and interpretation of the word "skill" are definitely subjective in this community, you can't seriously deny that Crank or Seal aren't strong players and couldn't also beat Idra or TaeJa in Bo7s. So, yes - I did put a good bit of thought into my post (as well as time watching [read: stalking] some of these Korean players). | ||

Both players are going to be playing in a matchup they are quite comfortable with. However, I imagine the reasoning is that TaeJa is able to consistently play against and beat extremely talented Korean players, whereas Idra has had quite some trouble this year beating such players. A lot of people also put FAR too much stock into Idra's previous wins (though, few they were) in GSL at a time when players are far from the skill level they are at now. I wouldn't say this is set either way; however, my gut says if it were to be one sided at all then TaeJa would be the player to bet on. He delivers pretty frequently. Furthermore, and this is probably naive idealism coming from me, I hope people avoid the "oh X is better than Y because so and so won a series, oh lawdy lawd" mentality. This match doesn't exist in isolation, and there are many other indicators of current ability than this one Bo7. Edit: PS. TaeJa is streaming right now. Those of you who are unfamiliar with his ability might want to check it out. | ||
