I like Midas but Iris is so strong TvT. On Peaks, I think Iris has a really good chance. Tau Cross, I still think GoRush can do it over Anytime. I'm curious how Zergman plays Arkanoid... but I think Nada will either crush him or lose barely. And gooo GF. Go crush Rock.

My votes...
NaDa > Zergman I think Zergman is underrated except in ZvZ where people finally see him for the monster he is, but I have to vote with my heart, and I love NaDa. Besides that, NaDa beat Zergman in Arkanoid during the group stage so I think he can do it again.
Goodfriend > Rock I'm not sure if I'm just crazy or what, but GF beat Bisu in the last round. Bisu is a monster at PvT. GF's TvP looks fairly sharp right now and I've never had too much faith in Rock's PvT. Still, I'm worried since Tau Cross seems good for P.
Gorush > Anytime I've never much cared for Anytime (come on, his lifetime wins are 50%, his match-up stats are fairly balanced so you can't blame a "weak match-up" and there are no recognizeable trends in his record -- and combine that with the subjective analysis of sloppily throwing units at his enemies a la Pusan without demonstrating quite as awe-inspiring macro and not-so-brilliant in-game decision making that he only makes up for with pre-planned, albeit brilliant, build orders, of which he can only produce so many) and I believe Gorush is a true ZvP monster. I hope he proves me right.
Iris > Midas Pre-WCG I would have said tentatively that Iris is favored. Iris is a stud at TvT and it's Midas' weakest matchup. Post-WCG, I will say this: if Midas can't square himself around and get back into the form he was demonstrating when he almost knocked out Savior, then Iris will face trounce him and then face trounce him again in the same match.

Predictions and comments:
Arkanoid, thus far, has shown surprisingly Z > T results. Even Nada had a very tough time against Zergman on it in the group stages. Still, I just have to believe that Nada will find a way to pull this one out. Nada > Zergman.
Tau Cross is very much T > P. Dragoon pressure is weak, gas is abundant, there's a cliff above the natural, and the slender natural choke means that a fast push can be powerful, as well. Combine that with GF's what-the-fuck-oh-my-god surprise win over Bisu last week, and it's not hard to predict who's going to come out on top. GF > Rock.
Arcadia II, as the statistics point out, is a decent enough PvZ map. There's none of the almost crippling imbalance you find on many land maps. That said, GoRush is fantastic at ZvP. I'm going with Anytime only because he's been practicing PvZ so much this OSL for his games against July and GGPlay, but this is definitely the hardest bet of the week. Anytime > GoRush.
And as for Midas and Iris, there's just no way Midas can win this one. It's by far the easiest pick of the week. Iris is especially good at TvT, I don't recall Midas ever winning a game against Iris, and during this OSL, Iris has already had three TvTs on Peaks, all of which he won. Iris > Midas.

Me same predictions as DJEtterStyle.
|
Same as Mortality for me. Looks like Anytime vs Gorush will be the most interesting match (at least from a betting point of view)
|
Has it started anyone? Live report is very much appreciated.
