Man, July is doing pretty good. I know all of this talk about Gom not wanting another Zerg winning (with this not vote map), but I think it will be very tough. At least one in the finals. With FruitDealer, Nestea, Leenock, July. Even with low numbers, Protoss players are playing very good as well. ZvP in the finals? That would be awesome. Despite GuineaPig didn't make it (kinda disappointed there) we still have MC, HongUN and GoBoogie.

The one's a legend already and the other is like only 16 or something...
I'd say it's quite possible that a Zerg wins this thing again
July is gonna win this.
Also, what Idra said a million years ago is 100% true. When Zerg was awful top Zerg players had to make themselves a hell of a lot better than Terran or Protoss players had too. Now that Zerg is fixed they are dominating. The only pro player that seems to even be making en effort to get better vs Zerg is Fauxer.
I don't understand why I always root for the Zerg players. Also I hope at least one more Toss player makes it into the Ro8, I'm betting on ChoyafOu.
oGsMC is so awesome!
best interview yet
"he drone drone drone, me win!"
" i don't know how to work spoilers lets just say i am pleased with one of the games so far "write your post, highlight it and klick the red circle-white-!-button
i guess i'm about to do it for you anyway:
I loved seeing Boxer pop up in that same game :P
The chances of a ZvP is getting bigger and bigger. I can't wait for Monday.
WTFFFFF 3 Protoss in RO8? lolol and only 2 Zerg. Honestly I don't care who wins this season any more as long as it isn't a Terran player.
"Because I love Mondays! "Yay Jinro! Very nice play. Without IMmvp he has a real chance for making to the final 4. And that's freakin crazy. But, I don't know his TvP.
The chances of a ZvP is getting bigger and bigger. I can't wait for Monday.
Socke is quite famous to have a really really strong PvT on that map
also choyas games vs mvp weren't really impressive imho, i expected waaaaaay more out of MVP than that... the game those two showed on blistering sands was quite terrible imho...
choya was in a huge lead, gave it away and got it back for free because MVP gave offered his army on a silver platter in the end
i really hope jinro 3-0's him... my mind won't be able to handle a 2-2 situation
The only thing I hope is that Jinro doesn't get nervous and start to think too much on being able to reach the last four. He is playing so solid and so good it would be a shame if the nerves start to kick in and starts making mistakes.
I don't know much of Starcraft 1 tournaments history, but Jinro is close on making history by being a non-korean and going to the 1/2 finals, I believe.
WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
LIKE MARINEKING AMIRITE? But seriously, I am not too up on that guy either. Only building marines is really gimmicky, and some day, someone is going to figure out some way to smash the all marine army and this whole marine+scv all in thing will disappear, and Marineking/Foxer will return to being a normal pretty good terran.
" Damn. This season will have a winner who isn't the best player of the season. Not even the second best. Really, all the ones that displayed superior play are gone. It's sad. "Just because it's not going to be a repeat winner doesn't mean it's not the best player. oGsMC and Foxer both are great players.
" @Winternet said:Yeah, but, still, better players have gone down. I am not saying that the winner will be a bad player. It will be a great player. But, not the best, in my opinion." Damn.

""jinroooooooooooooooo!!!!!
Man, that last game was so tense. Really close right up until the end. I wonder how much of a difference the thermal lance would have made.
But still, a foreigner in the last 4 is pretty amazing.

Jinro had so many vikings, and was like 20 workers ahead of choya, he would have literally needed to win that fight by about 30-40 supply to even have a chance. Choya had so little income, he was always around 300/100 towards the end of the game, while jinro was maxed and floating like 2k/1k for a long time. You never know though.

" @sixghost said:Because even if you are going all-in, or for a timing attack, losing that many workers is always huge.

@Arkanti: True, but those latter attacks by that banshee resulted in like two less stalkers or something. Really nothing that could change the match.
" @sixghost: Then you're assessment that Jinro wasn't that far ahead after the banshees is untrue. Because losing the big battle and still be ahead is what being far ahead means ;)He killed like 10 more probes after the initial harassment, which is what I was referring to.
