EG will probably win this one, with Delphi beating Demuslim. Going to be interesting for Demuslim to cast his own play.

This is quiet a good match. Socke and JYP have history and it could really go either way. IdrA is an excellent player even though he lacks results at the moment, you can never count him out. ClouD on the other hand is a very solid Terran who is capable of nearly beating anyone. He also got tons of builds to fall back on so this will be a very good match.
Delphi is one of the most underrated players in Germany, yet he's insanely good. I do hype him quiet a bit, but his potential is clearly there and if he can be a bit more solid and have a bit better decisions overall, he'll be an absolute beast as his mechanics are usually spot on.
DemusliM is a very good player, but since I'm not in touch with the NA scene as much, I cannot tell how fit he is right now. I'd love to see him on the EU server. I follow his stream from time to time and his performance at the Winter Arena was impressive. I rate him very high as he's a very clever player with good mechanics and a good mindset, this match will be good.
DarKFoRcE vs PuMa... while PuMa is not the best Terran vs Zerg player in the world, he's very good at it and DF is as well. This match can be and will be decided by the day-performance of the player.
Overall its a very exciting to watch clanwar and I'm really looking forward to it!
Predictions
JYP 2-1 Socke IdrA 1-2 ClouD DemusliM 1-2 Delphi PuMa 1-2 DarKFoRcE

DeMuslim casting himself :D
Let's go EG! Pull out the win here! 3-1 or 4-0 for EG please

If EG loses the first four rounds 1-3, won't there be no need for an ace (tiebreaker) match? Or am I misunderstanding something?

::shrugs:: If you want the ace match, I'd give IdrA the win (his ZvT is pretty solid) or Puma the win (his... everything... is pretty solid)

JYP > Socke Idra > Cloud Demuslim > Delphi Puma > Darkforce
But I feel the games are going to be extremely close for the 3rd and 4th set.

3-1 EG and if im pleasantly surprised, 4-0 for EG!

My predictions
JYP 2 : 1 Socke IdrA 0 : 2 Cloud DeMusliM 1 : 2 Delphi PuMa 2 : 1 DarKFoRcE EG 3 : 1 aTn
My explanation:
The first match is about as interesting as a pvp can get, Socke being an absolute beast and my pick for the ace, (should I be wrong in predictions.) However I have learnt to never count out a Korean when they have ample time to prepare and jet lag isn't an issue, also the server which this is played on will have a large affect on the matches, but in general I feel the special K factor will be too much for one of if not the best foreigner protoss out there right now, (barring the obvious nods to the protoss' in korea.)
As for the second match I feel Cloud is a smart player and will have something prepared for this, although this is the prediction I feel least confident in even if they are played on the US server I feel that Shakuras Plateau being the first map will give the advantage to cloud, and I doubt IdrA will pick a weird map to do a weird strat on instead I reckon he will probably go for a macro map possibly daybreak, and I think Cloud will have something prepared for that maybe a cc first. So I expect Cloud 2-0 but nothing would surprise me except somehow a draw game.
Demuslim vs Delphi is going to be a fantastic match, right now Demuslim is in superb form you only have to watch him stream to understand how confident he is feeling, I dont know much about Delphi's form but he is a superb player also. Based on what I have seen recently from Demuslim, Demuslim to take it 2-1. Also I am English.
Puma vs Darkforce, Darkforce will take the first game because the map is dual sight and he is a clutch player, from then on in I am sure Puma will demonstrate the skills that have made him such a power player in foreign tournaments. So Puma 2-1. IMHO.
EG 3-1 aTn
Can't wait for the matches either way, the casting has been good as well as production quality, <3 scoots right now split screen so baus, whatever the result the matches should be splendiferous, worth staying up for here in Blighty. ^_^

3-1 EG with idra losing 2-1

Oooh, almost a beautiful draw from Alternate; I think they would've loved to switch Socke and ClouD's positions.
As it stands, this seems like a 3-1 for EG; I echo NarutO, everyone seems to regard Delphi quite highly, even if he lacks big tournament results. Against DeMusliM it seems to me like he has a really solid shot at this, although DeMu is quite good as well. Best chance for aTn to force an ace would probably Socke beating JYP, but I'm not sure how they'd then win the ace, provided EG sends PuMa.

go EG! 3-1 ezpz
JYP 2-0 Socke IdrA 2-1 ClouD DemusliM 1-2 Delphi PuMa 2-1 DarKFoRcE

After losing to Socke 0-2 at the IEM championships, I'm sure JYP is happy with the opportunity to get some revenge.

don't think cloud has ever beat idra in a series. He's pummelled him every time, outclassing him easily.

No. ClouD hates TvP and whines about it, everytime he gets an oppurtunity for it
Anyway, my predictions:
JYP < Socke Could go either way imo. It's PvP, probably cross server, but with his win against JYP at IEM, I think it should be possible.
IdrA < ClouD ClouD has what it takes to beat good zergs and he likes strats which will put IdrA on tilt.
DeMusliM < Delphi Delphi is playing like a beast recently (one game away from qualifying for NASL S3) and DeMusliM is not. It could be closer than I make it here, but I think Delphi will take this one.
PuMa > DarKFoRcE Could go either way too. With PuMa's questionable TvZ and if DF brings his A-Game, DF could take, but I would probably say PuMa since DF had a cold recently.
