No samsonov this year? Oh will take it, he has my vote!

 

[WiWa]

Oh, just because I want him to win haha. It is definitely possible, although I think someone else needs to eliminate Joo for him. He''s not that agressive to paly against defenders

 

[WiWa]

[YosuaYosan]

Why I cant edit my post -_-
Anyway, The on-fire Dima seems to have a good chance this time, however his previous victory is against loopers an allrounders, not defenders..
Lets see how things turn out this time.. Interesting..

 

[Anders]

I think it will be a battle between Dima and Joo in the final. I think Joo are going to win, though I hope for Ovtcharov since I like him better.

 

[WiWa]

@Rhydian
Haha yea it is my first highlights video, thanks xD I like Koki's playing style.

 

[Lan]

Korean youngsters rock!
Soon they will put an end to chinese dominance!

 

[Michal_Z]

Well Ovtcharov and Hyuk cant meet in final, because they will play already in quarters ..
And MY vote is for Dima, as I like his playing stile most.. well I like Hyuk for defensive, but.. well I think Dima will beat him actually..

We will see pretty soon ;-)

 

[YosuaYosan]

Oowh yeah this is going to be good !

 

[YosuaYosan]

See.. I cant edit my post to add sth..
Joo-Dima's head to head record is 2-2 according to ittfranking.com
Go Joo !

 

[Rhydian]

Yeah! Come on Joo! You'll rock that!
