I have a bad feeling Cruncher will win.

I hope Naniwa steamrolls him.

Can u guys please figure out what is causing the lagging or freezing of the video(not audio) like every 15 sek or so. its on both the HQ and LQ stream. It is so annoying because sometimes it lags when a hude battle is going. And why cant u start using justin.tv? U have the quality option so u dont have to have 2 streams. Please do something about it.

I'd love to see Boxer win, but I have a feeling that Hasuobs won't have too much trouble with this one, unfortunately.

I doubt Cruncher has much of a chance, he really isn't that good.

Im pretty sure naniwa is gonna man handle cruncher. Not that cruncher is bad or anything, but naniwa is on a different level. And cruncher has had it easy by beating zergs all tourny long lol. Im so excited for the boxer game, ive been watching boxer for forever it seems,

Obviously all the players will have been practising relentlessly for their games, I hope cruncher has what it takes in him, if anything just to cause a massive upset. And ofcourse; GO EMPEROR!

Is it me or everyone thinks that Cruncher sucks?
Well, everyone is right
I mean, he's certainly a master-level player, or even low grandmaster-level, but I think that he's completly outmatched by the caliber of skill of the other competitors. Dunno how he came this far in the TSL...
GOGO NANIWA !!!

HasuObs vs Boxer... well, I'd like to see boxer win because he's not winning a lot lately I think, but Hasu can give him a run for his money

can't wait for hasu vs. boxer, although hasu's the only german player left in the tournament and boxer plays terran... hard to decide which player i should root for...

but i'm not quite sure about nani vs. cruncher either, 'cause as we've seen yesterday even one of the most renowned players in the world losing to an (absolute) underdog... pretty hard to predict the outcome of this matchup.

I wanted Boxer vs. MC in the finals. The match between MC and ThorZain was torture. I didn't know which of the two players i wanted to win. But ThorZain did an awesome job there.

hahah its so funny to me how people don't like cruncher, but to say he isn't good is just silly. Have we forgotten this? http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/TeamSpeak_TL_Open_10
.
Beating Beastyqt (currently ranked NUMBER 1 on the global grandmaster ladder), also beating kiwikaki, fenix, and ciara.
.
Cruncher is also currently ranked 3 on NA... so don't be so quick to say he is bad... anyways, i was saying i thought it was funny people don't like him because he does throw in the cannon rush, turtle to max, sentry play, but its part of the game and he plays to win, so i personally would never dislike a player for just playing the game. Hes not cheating. If it wasn't meant to be part of the game, Blizzard would have made some kind of rule where you have to build cannons close to your nexus. But thats not the case!! Plus I find cannon rushes quite fun to watch. Especially in the cases where the game continues after the rush and the players have to think on the spot. It's easy to have a planned build order but the true test is their decision making when things get hairy. A true test!! How do you respond to cheese!!? A perfect example of this is when cruncher played mondragon last week. Mondragon could have just let those cannons finished, cancelled his hatch, droned and teched/nydus/a number of other things, as cannons are NOT that cheap. He instead attacked the cannons with all his drones and let the hatch finish. He failed the test under pressure...
Not to say I think Cruncher will win... hmmm. I still have to go with naniwa. I'm not sure how Cruncher's PvP is. Cheese is pretty prevalant in pvp... MC cannon rushed San in the GSL last month, and double proxy gated Whitera at dreamhack. Ahhh well... I def. voted this match the most anticipated. Cruncher must be a pretty funny guy in person.
EDIT: Ok after reading the comments, I am really rooting for Cruncher!! haha. The same people that said Idra would roll cruncher, that MC would roll thorzain, and umm ALL the other TSL first rounds... that were wrong... are probably the ones saying naniwa will roll cruncher. GOGO Captain Cruncher!
