[GOM] Last Zerg Standing

Text byTadzio
December 14th, 2008 04:53 GMT

We're moving into the second week of the GOM Ro16, and so far the 'Taek-Bang Era' continues. This week we're given the opportunity to watch games starring arguably the best Protoss and the best Terran in S.Korea. Fans also get to see whether any Zerg make it into the quarterfinals. Remember, the GOMtv Classic is the 'Tournament of Upsets,' so anything could happen. Should be a fun set of games.

Ro16 - Day 2

(P)Rock vs (T)Flash
(P)Bisu vs (Z)HoeJJa[S.G]

Flash vs Rock should be a good test of the Classic's alleged map-imbalance. Considering Flash's past immunity to map-imbalance (Katrina, anyone?) he should perform well tonight. Without a doubt, Flash is the heavy favorite in this series. Rock will need a ton of factors to swing his way if he expects to get past Flash and into the Ro8.

HoeJJa vs Bisu... HoeJJa, the last Zerg standing and relative unknown vs Fakesteve's #1 PowerRanker and PvZ gawd, Bisu. Like the Flash vs Rock series, this one has a clear favorite: Bisu. HoeJJa did show some fantastic play vs Much two weeks ago, so I'm not ready to completely write him off, but Destination is no longer in the mappool and he'll need to show off that same level of micro in the face of Bisu's awesome multitask to pull off an upset.

Here's some irrational hope that there'll be a Zerg in the Ro8 after tonight's games complete!

lilsusie interviewed &#91;image loading&#93;BeSt[HyO] and &#91;image loading&#93;sKyHigh last week. If you'd like to watch these or any of GOM Classic's past interviews, please visit lilsusie's thread.

Also, GOMtv has begun requesting that viewers ask questions of any potential winner. This week, that means you can ask questions of Bisu, Flash, Rock and HoeJJa. Hurry and get your questions in before the games start!

Awesome. I'm a hardcore Bisu fan, but I'd also like to see a zerg in the ro8. Tough choice, though i suspect Bisu will win regardless.

That's obviously untrue . We hardcore Bisu fans would gladly sacrifice the entire Zerg race to appease his appetite.

Hoejja needs to win the whole tournament.

Zerg needs some new blood in these stagnant times.

As much as I appreciate Zerg as a Race, I appreciate Best/Bisu more. Eliminate that Zerg scum.

I want HoeJJa to win so Bisu can concentrate on the important thing, which is adding points to my fantasy PL roster. I don't want him taking weeks off for unimportant things like the starleagues.

Hoejja could be a champion one day. He's the real deal but I doubt he'll get past bisu today.
