So sick that Sen is playing Draco in Ro16 btw. These two are two of my favorite foreigners of all time, and imo two of the best five foreigners if you look at the past 5-6 years. A shame that one of them has to go out

(P)(ca)IefNaij < (T)(mx)GosI[Terran]

But obviously, most games are hard calls. Especially Mondi vs Brat and Sen vs Draco and the ZvZ...

Tinman: Reading your story put a big smile on my face. Her predictions are really good, but first and foremost it's just a sweet, quirky thing to do. Please tell your wife she's awesome! (Like that will mean anything to her coming from a random guy on a gaming forum)

My predictions:
iefNaij < terran (perhabs I'm too hyped about terran, but he seemed so solid in his last games, and I really want him to do well)
White-Ra > TT1 (I don't see tt1 eliminating the grandpa toss, though he plays really well)
Nony > Tarson (Haven't seen Tarson's latest games and I find this one hard to predict)
Idra > XiaOzi (Like everyone else I expect Idra to win everything, but he is somewhat prone to lose where he shouldn't, so this tsl is far from his yet)
Mondi < Bratok (Don't now how good bratok has been lately, but he is one of my favorite players and super skilled, so I expect a great performance from him. Mondi is scary though)
Koll > Fenix (Expect this to be close, but the young zerg will most likely pull through)
Ret > Castro (Hopefully! I believe ret will lose to sen in ro8 though. A shame really)
Sen > Draco (I honestly don't know how good these players are right now, but judging from earlier performances I don't see Draco win this)


Oh, and did anyone at all predict that IdrA won't reach the finals? If not, that just goes to say a lot.

God, I can't believe how many people are saying Terran will win over IefNaij.

my predictions:
iefNaij>terran
White-rA>TT1 (Sad these two have to face off early, I'd root for TT1 vs almost anyone else but White-rA is my fav)
Nony>Tarson
IdrA>XiaoZi
Brat_ok>Mondragon (I'd like mondi to win, but I think Brat_ok is the favorite here)
Fenix>Kolll (Kolll is way overrated imo but I guess we will see)
Castro>Ret (This could really go either way but I think there is a lot of pressure on Ret)
Sen>Draco

Full Prediction:
+ Show Spoiler +

1st: Idra
2nd: Sen
3rd: White-rA

I just watched my first sen replays of my life.

Oh My God. His muta-lurker-ling army movement is the best I've seen from any non-korean. There are no other non-korean zergs that I've seen do well after losing there third gas.

I think rets bracket(assuming he wins) has him playing zvz all the way to the end. Which is rather bad for him.

Even if he is a 60-70% favorite in all of the games that isn't a big enough edge to insure he passes.

I have no clue why jos is only playing zerg now that he isn't in korea ....

He is in Korea till the 28th. Plays a courage tournament the 24th. You could argue skipping the tourney and practicing terran, but if not then he still has to play all zerg till then. He has probably thought this all through numerous times so I assume he thinks two weeks isn't enough to get back into TvZ.


I just can't imagine how strong ret would be at this more refinned pure aggression midgame tvz style terrans are using. I think koll,sen,castro would all get brutalized on this map pool. But two weeks just might not be enough. Then again castro has weaker mechanics and timings then koll so switching and being slightly sloppy might be better then a 55%-59% edge.

I saw his location had changed back on his id so I assumed he was home my bad =).

I am looking forward to the Idra XiaOzi match. Idra's worst match up, and two very good players. Of course Idra will probably win, but I would love to see the nerd rage if he loses.

Oh and Ret's zvz is not as much of a lock as people seem to believe. His match against Flaf went to 5, and yes I know he took the first two. However he missed a 12 hatch expand and let Flaf right back into the series. Yes he is still the favorite, and I would never bet against him, I just think that zvz is the most upset prone match up and so I would much rather see ret play against a toss or terran as I am a fan of his.

Here are my predictions:

IefNaij > GosI[Terran] I really think this can go either way, both are extremely solid players, 3-2 for JF!
White-Ra < TT1 TT1 is just awesome and he puts in lots of time into practicing so he can definitely pull an upset here. 3-1 TT1.
NonY > Tarson Since nony mentioned that he'll be practicing and be ready for this match, I believe he'll be able to take the series 3-1.
IdrA < XiaOzI Man, I feel so bad for XiaOzI, always having to play IdrA in tournaments. I'm sure IdrA will win but XiaOzI did eliminate IdrA in that one tournament O_O! I can only hope XiaOzI can pull off the same results here. 3-2 XiaOzI.
Mondragon > BRAT_OK I love watching Mondi play and he amazes me everytime, Mondi 3-0 or 3-1!
Kolll > Fenix Kolll, you're crazy good. 3-0 or maybe 3-1 for Kolll
Ret > CaStrO I really hope Ret takes this but, for some reason, I have a bad feeling about this series o_o.
Sen > Draco I think this series will be really close. I haven't heard anything about Draco yet but Sen, on the other hand, seems to be prepared and ready so, 3-1 or 3-2 for Sen.

a few things:

1) All the poeple who think Nony is the clear favourite and will destroy Tarson are wrong. Im not saying Tarson will beat Nony just that it will be much closer than some here seem to think. Just imo for sure..

2) Ret getting all the > óver castro ( including from me ) is not so much about ret being the clear favorite in a ZvZ vs Castro but about how much we all like him and root for him..

3) People here who think JF beats Terran. Thats an valid opinion but I doubt un can objectively say that JF is the fav.


And a lot depends on how active the likes of Draco,Sen, JF really are..

Xiaozi can win ONLY if the games are under 10 minuts. Over that, when IdrA's macro kicks in. We will see a steamroll of marine medic going towards xiz's base !
