2010 Shinhan Bank Proleague Round 4 Week 3 (MBC), hite SPARKYZ vs Hwaseung OZ Saturday, Apr 24 4:00am GMT (GMT+00:00)
I love the fact that KT Rolster and Hwaseung OZ generally play tandem on the same night. Besides being the teams that contain my two favourite players, Flash and Jaedong, these are the two teams that also tend to rely most heavily upon their above-named aces. Whenever Jaedong does well, OZ can generally expect a victory, and when Flash wins KT can generally pull out the ace match as long as one other KT player scores a victory. However, whenever these two players lose the team tends to do poorly: Jaedong's less-than-stellar (by his standards) performance in Winner's League ended up with OZ being unable to secure a playoff spot. During KT Rolster vs hite SPARKYZ, where Flash failed to defeat Leta, KT Rolster was subjected to an All-Kill at the hands of the 2-Port Wraither as well as their first and only loss of the Winner's League. Interestingly enough, Jaedong would rampage through Hite the following week, taking his only All-Kill in the team's final match; a bittersweet victory, indeed.
Either way, Jaedong is now on a 16-game win streak against Hite, but can the rest of his team deliver? Hwaseung OZ hasn't been doing too hot this round, losing to Air Force ACE, of all teams, last week. Jaedong and Killer both failed to deliver, with Jaedong continuing his appalling streak of losing vT. Where has the ZvT that Jaedong was so renowned for at the end of 2009 and beginning of 2010? It was once said that Jaedong was the only zerg player able to stand toe-to-toe with Flash's TvZ, but since the MSL finals Jaedong has lost to such players as RuBy and DarkElf, not to mention Jaedong being knocked out of the OSL and dropping a MSL Ro32 game to up-and-comer BaBy. With a 1-2 record, Hwaseung OZ is not performing so well. True, they did win over WeMade FOX in a close 3-2 match with Jaedong taking two wins in ZJvZ, but the same JvZ lost Hwaseung OZ the match 1-3 against STX SouL, with Jaedong going down in Set 4 at the hands of ZvZ specialist Modesty. The real question tonight is, can Jaedong pull everything together and be the champion he once was (still is? ), or will his win streak against Hite be finally broken? And even more importantly, will the rest of OZ hold together through the match?
It can be said of hite SPARKYZ that Leta is the only player holding the team together, as espoused by snowdrift86 in the latest (and highly baller) Proleague update. With YellOw[ArnC] (why won't his name TLPDize, hmm...) slumping and under investigation for match rigging, Hite doesn't have too much to bring to the table. Sure, they have PvP champion and cheddar connoisseur Horang2, but OZ will only be fielding PerfectMan... if they field him at all. Perhaps go.go (what he won't TLPDize either?) will take the stage and Deep Six somebody off the map. However, hite is going to have a tough time tonight. Like OZ, Hite has a 1-2 record, losing a close 2-3 match to CJ Entus as well as a 1-3 loss to SK Telecom T1, and winning 3-2 against Samsung KHAN, with Leta taking two wins over great and firebathero in the ace. Either way, I expect tonight's match to be close, but don't look at me; I'm terrible at these predictions...

Well boes is already handling the other match, so I'll take this one (even though I'll probably be more glued to KT vs MBC than this one).

I have Killer on my anti-team but I still hope he wins a game hehe, it's too sad seeing him lose.
I predict Jaedong > Leta in the first game and Hite wins 3-1
