Woah, Crazy-Hydra changed his name?
That's pretty... crazy.

I won't be home to watch this, but I expect to see Crazy-Hydra doing this when I get home.

It's a bit unlikely and all, but if Crazy-Hydra gets an all-kill, would this be the first time in any korean winners league event that a team scores three all-kills in a row?

If major plays then T8 :D

I want to T8 to win to ruin all those people's KT centered fantasy teams.
That's... Somewhat unlikely.
While I don't think Crazy will all-kill (though it certainly isn't an impossibility), 4-1 feels reasonable.

This match up needs more hype.
I'm posting the piece I submitted for the writing thing.
The test is on.
Since the start of the very first SC2-only Proleague; arguably there isn’t a team that had been undervalued; and undermined as Team 8. From the loss of Sea to TeamLiquid, Jaedong to Evil Geniuses and losing a whole string of players; Tyson, Killer, Movie for their lost passion for SC2; Team 8 became truly the “8th team” such that they were positioned to be the worst team of the 8 participating in SC2.
After a notable player in Baby; their lineup consisted of a bunch of no names and a man that would have a solid outing and then unable to recall and repeat his perforamnce in the next match; known as Jaehoon. Top that off with having no sponsors; being forced to field the same players in Proleague because of their lack of depth; and their only notable player “Baby” struggling with a bare 50% record; they had every legitiament reason to just give up, quit, and forfeit each game. But they rose amongst the occasion.
Jaehoon. Speed. Ryul2. In the upcoming months and the upcoming rounds; these names will likely become household everyday names rather than no-name B-teamers forced to play the game because of a lack of depth. Ryul2 has provided a stellar ZvZ; although shaky at times due to inexperience. Speed, one of the biggest surprises of the tournament, has been a god-send to Team 8. Coming out of nowhere; he’s displayed some of the finest TvZ I the Proleague that would make Light jealous and providing a solid TvP and TvT as well. Don’t believe me?
His victims: Effort, Stork, Reality, Hydra, Zero, Jaedong, and Turn; players who are ranked top amongst their respective teams. And there is Jaehoon: the man who drives everyone in the FPL nuts. A guy who’s been a pleasant surprise to us all; showing a solid PvP and a PvT and becoming easily the best protoss player of Team 8, beating out his competition of:himself.
These rag-tag group has shown they aren’t going down without a fight and going to be extremely scrappy for a win; doing whatever it takes; whether cheesing the **** out of the player; “speshal taktiks”; or even kicking the opponents players balls before going into the gaming booth; and hoping lady luck falls in their laps. For their first opponent this week; they’re going to have to pull out ALL of their shenanigans; hope for lady luck to completely side them and more because their opponent is none of then..
KT ****ing Rolster.
Even the hardcore die-hard KT fans could have not seen the dominance as they’ve displayed for the first two rounds of PL. Reigning champion CJ at their midst? No problem. Rain/Fantasy led by the return of the evil emperor; boxer? Easy. The Unholy alliance featuring Jaedong, Taeja and Hero, each an absolute beast at their races? A joke to KT. Truly KT has become the best KT (so gtfo SKT!)
In a matter of months, they have risen from the ashes and have become the team to beat. And they’re doing it with style, All killing poor STX Soul and a EG-TL anxiously awaiting the arrival of their final piece: stephano; TWICE, and beating their Rivals SKT to a pulp (4-1). If you take out the outlier of the Woongjin game in Week 2 of Round 1; no team other than CJ has been able to accumulate more than 1 win against them. They aren’t just winning. They’re COMPLETELY dominating.
Out of nowhere the inconsistent KT lieutenants have become the beasts of PL; Action showing off his great ZvZ; Crazy-hydra becoming arguably the best 5th man in SPL; and Wooki, a guy who’s only 9-1 this season including the most recent All-Kill on STX Soul. Then there is the always reliable Chin-toss; Stats a guy who just relishes and enjoys his role as the 2nd man but strong enough to go undefeated, take care of business and silently walking away from his booth afterwards as if the game was just a walk in the park. Even the b-teamers: Motive and Hitman have stepped up their game; picking up wins when needed and its only a matter of time before the super saiyan knowns as Hoejja steps up to the plate to join this fray of picking apart each SPL team.
Team 8 is going to have their hands full trying to take down each one of these solid players preparing snipe builds, studying their VODs and trying to use the maps to the best of their advantage. If they are able to overcome this massive hurdle and beat the KT core…then as everyone in SC2 knows by now:
It’s Final Boss time.
And after the Up and Downs, this final boss is angry.

Hoping for a Cure 3-kill followed by a Flash or Stats reverse AK

KT Five going to all get all-kills. Tonight is Crazy's, two days from now it's Action and then Stats will finish it.
Time to die, T8.
If Crazy all-kills tonight, I'm going to make a KT Rolster fanclub and make it swag. Please bring forth another killing.
