I expect all the quarterfinals to be very close and I don't think any outcome would be an upset.

My prediction
Bomber 3-2 MMA
herO 3-1 Classic
Life 3-2 San
Taeja 3-1 Innovation

herO 3-1 Bomber
Taeja 3-1 Life

herO 4-2 Taeja

Bomber-MMA
- Should be a really close match b/w two of sc2's greatest veterans of tvt

herO-Classic
- Classic getting through would be the biggest quarterfinal surprise but not out of the question by any means. Both players are masters of pvp but herO is that little bit better I think. Pvp is no longer a coinflip.

Life-San
- I had no idea of San's dominant record over Life but most of those matches were insignificant and long ago and importantly Life won the last series. Both players are masters of the matchup but with the form Life just showed to upset Zest he has to be the slight favourite.

Taeja-Innovation
- Outside of the hellbat era, tvt has always been Innovation's weakest matchup. It is the matchup where macro and mechanics matter least, and decisionmaking and on-the-fly improvisation matter most, which is why I expect Taeja to extend his winning record over Inno.

"life 3-0 san"

wonder who wrote that


The most unbiased of writers, no doubt.


Totally unbiased.
Actually, Life 3 - 0 San is a quite accurate prediction of what will happen this Saturday. Although a more accurate sentence would be "Life will rekt everyone at Blizzcon and regain his throne as the best player in the world", but well...
Life won like 200k and didn't hire a proper criminal lawyer.

suggestion: fade out the cards (or do something) for the players that are eliminated. It'll give better contrast with the skull and bones image imo

I already suggested this, they think it's more fun this way

I have seen the unthinkable. A TL preview just predicted Taeja to lose.

Good writeup, but without Zest and soO, I can only get so hype for the tournament itself

What the hell, I never knew this crazy life vs San head to head was a thing! How has this not been pointed out before!?
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I had the skeleton of the preview sitting for a time when they'd ultimately face off in one big tournament or other. It has been pointed out a bunch of times though, but since they've competed in different regions it hasnt been relevant for a while.

I really do think Life is going to 3-0 as well. I dont know why, but I feel it.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

Life 3 - 0'ing San isn't a bold prediction, it's what will happen. Get real people (;
(And TaeJa losing to INnoVation, are we not on TL anymore?^^)

I point it out every now and then but there's only about 3 San fans on TL so it gets buried under everything
