Yeah, though game 1 was disappointing imo. We'll see what they have in store for us in week 2. I also think that it's kind of boring that the first set is played one week earlier than the next ones. Oh well, It's still JD vs Flash =)

I'm somewhat disappointed that this is a Bo3 only, with different drawing they definitely were in the shape to meet up later on too.
BW fighting!

Hopefully they can reverse the trend they started in the 1st game.

Maybe this will inspire the OSL to go the way of the MSL, and decide Ro8 placement by KeSPA rank.

Too bad they meet this early, this would be worthy of a final. The one who wins this is the favorite to win the tournament.

It sucks that the games are distributed over 2 weeks.

I wish they played a BO5. Those two really should not have met so early in the tournament.

A question for the poll makers :
Don't you think the order of the possible answers influences the polls. This particular poll is definitely not a great example of a biased result, but I kinda noticed it in some of the previous ones. Would it be possible to randomize the order in which the answers are presented?
Just a thought.

edit : just to be clear, in a 'best to worst' scenario randomizing is obviously stupid unless you just reverse it to 'worst to best' half of the time.

That's a bit unfair imo to the group winners.
But perhaps the group winners vs 2nd places by Kespa rank would be fair.

the 2 meeting each other is awesome but the format is horrible.
I would prefer a BO5 on good maps, and we get this split bo3 shit with the good zerg map being the last one, which is just one more sign that this epic encounter ends in a 2-0 trashing and 1million FLashfanboys orgasming and shitting half of the TL threads with it, and opening 20 additional threads and blogs about it,

So i gone with the This sucks so much, I hate OSL.

It depends, I guess. If it results in a Flash vs Stork finals, then awesome.

If Stork gets knocked out by Shine (wtffffffff) and it results in something stupid like Flash vs Shine finals, then GOD, WHY?!?

JD and Flash appear poised to have another, more epic showdown in MSL, anyway. Probably a Bo5, there.

Map excuses are pretty poor form, here.

Fighting Spirit

Was 6-5 TvZ before JD vs Flash. Equal numbers of T and Z mirrors played on it.

Heartbreak Ridge

New HBR is too new to draw meaningful stats from, but old HBR was extremely balanced TvZ by the stats, and had more than twice as many ZvZs as TvTs played on it in PL.

Eye of the Storm

Zerg favored.

If JD can't get a win on either of the first two maps, then he would have lost the series 2-1 even if Eye of the Storm was the first map in the order (and assuming he won on it), so it doesn't matter.
Favorite progamers (in order): Flash, Stork, Violet, Sea. ||| Get better soon, Violet!

What makes you say that? His 4-game loosing streak before he won vs Peace?

I'm not saying said player is bad, I really like him myself, but saying that he doesnt look as strong as the other said player confuses me abit.

How is HBR and Fighting Spirit bad for Zerg. They seemed actually quite balanced and according to Flash they are "good for Zerg". Since Flash is so open about balance/imbalance issues in his interviews (saying that Match Point favouring Terran, and Ulitmatum is Terran friendly map) I trust him.
