TLAF-Liquid`Tyler vs Praae.ThorZaIN: Will Tyler's typical high level of preparation be able to overcome ThorZaIN's game-sense he demonstrated vs. Fruitdealer? I don't think so. Tyler.
oGsMC vs Duckload.White-Ra: Despite Ciara's off day last round, we know MC is solid. Loner's decision making was off. MC's won't be. White-Ra might be in over his head. MC.

ThorZaIN 3-1 Tyler
MC 3-2
I was really impressed with ThorZaIN's performance against FruitDealer, I feel he will bring the same sort of game plan coming into this match. Tyler is known for precise builds and always has a game plan when players like these meet you can hope for epic games, but I have to give it to ThorZaIN!
White-Ra is an amazing protoss but I feel MC is training extremely hard now as he has lost to White-Ra before and recently lost to MKP. I feel White-Ra can take it but honestly it can go either way but I'll go with MC!

Tyler 3-1, fighting Tyler with time to prepare is like waging a land war in Asia.
MC 3-1, White-Ra will get 1 with a gimmick but MC is too solid.

I want to say that White-Ra wins because of taktiks but realistically MC wins 3-1 or something.

Tyler 1-3 Thorzain
I think this will remain to be the tournament of upsets, and I think the slumping of TL player will sadly continue. I really, really hope Tyler wins though, and even if the game is played from the comfort of his home with ample time to prepare, I think Tyler will fall T_T!
MC 2-3 White-Ra
Calling it. I don't think MC is used to the European style. I predicted early that the Koreans will do bad, and I will continue to predict so. MC is very fortunate that it will be played on the Korean server though.

Nony 3-2, - Thorzain is really promising but Nony is quite solid and he's up against Terminus/Crossfire/Shakuras. Series of the night.
MC 3-0 - The WC game was an anamoly: White ra can't expect to get those build order wins 3 games in a row.. After seeing how Anypro lost no reason to doubt this outcome.

Tyler 3 - 2 Thorzain
Undoubtedly an incredibly hard match to predict. Thorzain's TvP is top notch and his overall game solid as was proven by the games against Fruit Dealer. Tyler, however, is so solid Team Liquid has come close to having to change it's name. Coinflippy.
White-Ra 3 - 0 MC
White-Ra's win percentage versus Min Chul is 100%. What happens when you roll an onesided dice with Whire-Ra's face on it three times? The universe explodes. The very same way will MC's head explode as the Ukrainian mastermind takes control and sweeps.

Thorzain is ridiculously underrated. As much as I love Tyler, Thorzain will be playing his heart out for this.
MC 3-2 White-Ra
No delay means this is going to be a tight series. PvP is a coinflip, but MC is more clutch.

White-Ra 3-0 MC. just so that I can quote this after he does. (pretending the MC-anypro series didn't happen).
