OMG I really think foreigners can take this event.
Nerchio is playing so incredibly well right now. Puma's TvZ is no joke, but Stephano definitely showed us that he's touchable. Too close to call, imo, but I'd love to see a Nerchio upset.
Socke / Kas could go either way. I think Socke will be happy with this matchup for a couple reasons. First, he's dodging the Koreans, and second, his PvT has looked really, really good this week. He really outplayed Select, and I'm not sure that Kas is on Select's level. Both great players, but I've got to give the nod to Socke.
Mana is the obvious favorite over Moonglade, especially after his utter domination of his group, but if nothing else, Moonglade has taken a huge step forward today in silencing the doubters. I still expect Mana to win, but a Moonglade upset would not surprise me.
MC vs Select... Everyone is going to favor MC here, but Select is playing amazingly well. I will say this: MC is virtually cheese proof, and he seems impossible to harass. Select tends to prefer a harassment based, drop heavy play style, and I really don't think it will be able to crack MC. That said, MC hasn't looked as invincible in this tournament as he has in past events. Select definitely COULD win... But MC is hands down the favorite.

I wonder if MinChul can overcome his on stage nerves and defeat Select, the Korean Terran. I loved his builds vs Kas, very MCesque.
|
It's going to be quite a miracle if Nerchio beats PuMa. Recently he seemed to be very vulnerable to harassment heave terrans especially in early game.
Gonna be cheering for u for sure though!!
Nerchio fighting

Mc vs Puma would be nice but i really hope to see a foreigner taking the 1st place

Korean at 1st & 2nd place incoming.
|
MC vs Puma finals is the best outcome IMO...in terms of game quality. Go MC and Puma!
|
Yay Im so happy about the race distribution. Its too bad Huk didnt make it but its really nice to see two zergs advance from that group! Last year it was 14 terrans and 2 protoss in top16 if I recall.
I have to hope for my zerg brethren! Gogo Nerchio

omg, Puma was so inteligent losing to Mana, his bracket is so much easier than the other side, although Nerchio may prove to be difficult. We have yet to see super standard TvZ with Puma. Against Ret, he did 11/11 then reactor hellion - banshee. Against July, he did double reactor hellions, mass bfh and bunker rush. We still do not know how solid his openings truly are so we may see upset if Nerchio defends well.

My heart wants SelecT v Socke but my brain tells me it will be Puma v MC. At least every single match tomorrow looks like a highly entertaining game. None of them should be walk overs!
Edit: lol I voted against everyone that can stop Puma and MC. Heart wins. SelecT fighting!

Doubt he actually wanted to lose vs Mana either way...
