lmao, really?

Life is really damn good and the favorite, but c'mon he's not THAT favored. No mention of Squirtle, Hyun, Taeja, or Violet and then the someone else option? JD alone I think would have a fairly good shot at knocking Life out if they meet in the ro8+, it's not like it's just Life and a bunch of foreigners.

Personally, I think Squirtle has got it in him to win it all. He's been in Europe for awhile now iirc, so he shouldn't be jetlagged either.

Life wins it. No one else in the tournament is on the same level as him at the moment since so many good players *cough symbol* dropped out.

he's implying that symbol was the second best player in the tournament besides life

I have no idea what the intent of your post is, except to randomly point out that innovation beat symbol in a GSL series when it's entirely irrelevant to the context

Life is the best player in the tournament but there are still many good players, I would give him a 20% chance of winning.

Life hasn't been near as amazing as he was a couple months ago at all. He's obviously still incredibly skilled and, if I were asked who has the best chance to win the tournament, I would say ST_Life. But he's really not that favored compared to the rest of the players. Factor in home-ground advantage (including this for the Koreans who have been in Europe), I feel that Life has a less than 50% chance of winning.

If you've watched enough StarCraft 2 (2 specifically), you'd know that the only thing consistent in terms of results is that it won't be consistent. Even if somebody is the best player in the world, you just can't be sure that they will win because they have not reached a level that they are the best in the world by so much that you can rely on it. Even now, ST_Life is for sure not the best player in the world, and he does not have that much skill more than the contestants already there, korean or not.

Was about to post otherwise. =(

I get that it's supposed to be a funny post with some truth to it. But it's always nice to see who are the 2nd and 3rd favorite, especially when someone wasnt voted or wasn't even on the list manage to win. Also picking life over EVERY OTHER PLAYER (including some koreans), seems like a crazy pick.
