I think to maintain some integrity to the list, we need to put his correct predictions in there as well.

Let me start, he somehow predicted SKT1.Rain to Beat SKT1.Fantasy in ro16 OSL (WCS.KR season 2)!

Some of them become fan-favorites thanks to Artosis continously talking about them!

well, while fun and interesting..... You would need to have every prediction he has made in the specific time frame, since its a 50/50 chance of being right.... you would assume that it would land somewhere in the 60/40 region one way or the other. If it turns out to be 70/30 (wrong/right) or worse..... then you have definite proof of the artosis curse or that artosis is some kind of freak that can't even break even in a game of chance.... in which case, i want to play Artosis heads up at poker lol. I could play any two cards and still come out a winner!!!!!
When there is nothing left to lose but your dignity, it is already gone.

By the way, i think the example of Artosis prediction for Rain in OSL semis should be taken with grain of salt, because in the end of previous semifinal Artosis said that Bomber has a chance. And we all know, what happens when even glimpse of curse combines with Bomber's Law.

I wonder if Artosis will ever decide to try and take and take advantage of this.
i.e. Form his own team and always bet against them

Hey, they should do that in other sports too! Like basketball and baseball! I wonder why no one else has ever had that idea before...

We'll have ourselves quite the conspiracy theory here. Pretty scary to think about, especially after the HUGE wreck that esports became after the Savior scandal.

nearly as bad (good?) as kim carrier
There is no such thing is "e-sports". There is Brood War, and then there is crap for nerds.

Wasn't it the MVP vs Squirtle finals where he picked MVP to win after MVP was up 3-0 then Squirtle won 3 in a row and he picked him to win only for MVP to win game 7?

I remember that GSL. That was the one there were 3 Protoss and MVP left. He picked PartinG to win it all, then when he lost, he picked Squirtle to win the finals, who went on to also lose to MVP.

I think the curse only works when he fervently believes who he predicts to win, which makes this that much more funny.

So you are saying that we need to go deeper.

Deep enough so that he believes it is an original prediction.

Cute thread, poor Artosis.

I always feel sorry for whoever he predicts to win.

I wonder if players should start asking Dan to stop making picks or pay him off to jinx the other player. hue hue hue. I think we're very close to Dan eclipsing Kim Carrier now considering there's a lot more stuff to predict.
