I did stuff a long time ago for the site
I dunno if people follow professional Starcraft as much as I do (Tanger is the only one I know of and hes been on leave for awhile). Recently the Starleagues have been pretty wild. Especially the OSL. A lot of underdogs seem to keep pulling upsets out that usually don't happen. I'm gonna run down a few of the pros who have been lacking lately.
-Bisu[Shield] is on the verge of elimination. He dropped games to go.go (fucking stupid) and a game to Zero yesterday where he got dominated by Queens. His fate is out of his hands at this point as he needs go.go to drop a game against HwaSin in order to force a Round robin for the second spot in the group
-Jaedong, effOrt and YellOw (the fake one) all have a good chance of going to a Round robin as well as long as effOrt beats FlaSh in their next game. Its kinda hard to believe because Jaedong dominated both effort and Flash however lost in a build order ZvZ to YellOw yesterday.
-My boy FantaSy really stepped up in his group by cruising through the competition so far. I have a good feeling about him mangeling Stork coming up.
-Canata has been the real surprise for me this entire tournament. B-Caliber Terran from SKT1 who never really accomplished anything for his career now has a good chance at hitting the quarters and semis if he gets Terran opponents coming up. I can't say I like him, but he has impressed me thus far.
As for the MSL, I will save that for another time when I feel like writing about that shit storm (aka Bisu and Jaedong both coming out of the Round of 32 by the skin of their teeth)
