Fun fact: Everyone but Thorzain have made it to semis by beating 1P, 1T and 1Z. And Thorzain will complete his lacking T win should he make it to the finals.

At this point I am definitely rooting for Thorzain, although I can't help but feel going up against Kas in TvT will be at least an equal challenge to taking on MC


hehe, never thought i'd say this but i think beating MC TvP is not even an indication that he can beat kas TvT but the finals are bound to be awesome, especially if kas and naniwa make it. absolutely no clue what's going to happen!

Just one question:

Is there anyone who still has a correct bracket from the contest?

I think there is one guy that correctly predicted these semis

Maybe his girlfriend made it because the names are nice ... :p

Haha, so true, cant see any other option how anybody could have predicted these semis - although all 4 players def deserve to be there based on their awesome matches, no doubt about that

ThorZain played fantastic, but don't see him beating Kas in a TvT...
Nani is so solid right now, but Im sure Hasu will be well prepared too, so hope for a close PvP

All of them are so well-mannered and nice guys that deserve the final win. I really don't have a favourite now that MC, qxc and Boxer are out

I really hope for a ThorZaIN vs. NaNiwa finals ^^ A Bo7 between them could possibly even overshawod Thorzain vs MC series (hoping it goes to the 7th match :D )

Also: Thorzain, if you are reading this, than feel confident that you can take on Kas! Cheering for you!

Post-game Interview

Q: You went for your thor strategy in game 5. Did you see MC hallucinate the Immortals? How did you target down the non-hallucinated ones so well?

When you have vision over his hallucinated units with detection, the SC2 AI automatically ignores them and focuses on the real units instead. His mistake was letting me see that he hallucinated some units right before the fight. It seems like a pretty clever thing to do, since this strategy depends on strike cannoning his immortals, and if there are 10+ of them, that's not very easy. So I just kept scanning during the fight.

Never know that before!!
That's good to know!
Great series.

A little sad to hear Thorzain is not really confident in his TvT, I'm rooting pretty hard for him out of the players left now. =/ But hopefully he can bring it up to above Kas-level before they have to play.

Thorzain hwaiting!

Thorzain said he needs to practise TvT like crazy because its his worst matchup (i guess it was 40% winrate at TL-stats).
And hell, thats what he really needs to do. Otherwise Kas gonna rape him! He is just a sick TvT beast.
I think matchup-wise this game will be even harder than the mc-game! but he is so damn talented, i will root for him with all i got!
eu talents fighting !

Kas a TvT beast? i remember a game against GoOdy in a Go4Sc2-Cup final where Kas opted to go for a stim timing push
... and forgot to research stim!
he attacked his opponent and you could literally see him mashing the stim button but nothing happened. he lost his force and instantly researched stim.
he later won the game because goody played bio though...

jokes aside, Kas is indeed a huge favourite in this matchup though thorzain really impressed me.
nice interviews. may the best one win.

Kas is top1 TvT in ELO rank right now. That says something.
But I look forward to 3:2 games for more satisfaction from them. =)

Kas is Terran which I already said is my worst match up, but that means that I will have to practice it. If I play against him, I will have a reason to actually practice TvT like I've never practiced before.

I love this attitude from ThorZaIN. It's definitely clear from his games that he's the sort of player who prepares very well for every matchup.

TSL3 is just so ridiculously awesome every week. I'm sad that there's going to be a week break, but the semis should be great. I'm excited!
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

Good Semifinals:
Kas, the machine
Thorzain, the smart guy
Naniwa, the phoenix

It's almost the same sentence, i think it's a mistake?

Anyway, great interviews and i am looking forward to semifinal matches :D they will be extremely interesting :O
