Round of 16: Groups
By: Sayle


Group AGroup BGroup CGroup D
Sziky Michael dOTY skzlime
TechnicS Bakuryu dRaW trutaCz
G5 Pro7ect TerrOr dewalt
SouthPark NeMu eOnzErG Ramms


Holy. Check. I think that sufficiently describes the round of 16 group situation and I could probably just stop writing there. Unfortunately, TL isn't paying me just to regurgitate SC2 memes.*

First, a couple of fun facts about the players who advanced to the round of 16. Of the 12 players who made it out of the round of 24, 10 of them were top two finishers in their respective qualifiers. The only two players who got to the finals of a qualifier but failed to make it out of their group were Julia and andreyy, who coincidentally both qualified from qualifier #4. In their place, we had two players who qualified on points: TerrOr and NeMu who were first and third in points respectively. These 12 players are now joined by our four invites (Sziky, Michael, dOTY and skzlime) to make the groups you see here.

Now on to the actual groups! Fortunately for everyone except Harem, we have surprisingly few ZvZ opportunities in the round of 16. The first day of casting may feature a few as we have five of our seven Zergs in groups A and B, but groups C and D contain just a single Zerg each. As an added bonus, this means we'll have at least two non-Zergs advancing to the round of 8, which I'm sure is a relief to many including the TLS organizers. Which non-Zergs will advance though, and who their Zerg opponents will be is completely up in the air.

The round of 16 will start off with a bang with group A featuring superstar foreigner Sziky facing off against TechnicS, G5 and SouthPark. While Sziky and TechnicS may be the favorites in this group, I'm sure everyone would love to see what oldschool hero G5 can do against the Zerg menace.

Group B is full of character as we have fan favorites Bakuryu (MustacheZerg) and Pro7ecT (Neo Terran) in a group with Michael (CHEESEKING) and NeMu (y staff no pick me?). With our only random player in this group along with the infamously cheesy superbly creative Michael, there are bound to be some crazy games.

As a Protoss player and fanboy, group C makes me cry a little on the inside. Knowing that two of my favorite Protosses could potentially knock each other out is disheartening, let alone the fact that TerrOr and eOnzErG are ridiculously good as well and could just eliminate two Protosses in one go. Considering the current conditions of all the round of 24 players, I'd say this is the group of death and almost impossible to predict.

Group D rounds out the round of 16 with a nice balance of Terran, Zerg, Protoss and a racepicker (Ramms plays TvZ, TvP, PvT). Dewalt is coming off the back of a surprising 2-0 victory in his round of 24 group while trutaCz is in dominating form. Ramms seems to be recovering from his shaky performance during the earlier qualifiers as well and should be a serious threat. The one mystery to me is skzlime, who is rumored to be slightly out of shape, but considering he all-killed top foreigner team LRM in the finals of the last Gambit's Cup, I doubt any of his opponents are going to have an easy time.

With the round of 16 being the first appearance of the invites in the same best of one group stage format as the round of 24, there are bound to be crazy games, upsets and overall excitement here in the TLS. How will the invites fare against the players who have fought their way here? Will the Protoss and Terran be able to hold back the wave of Zerg domination? CAN ANYONE BEAT SZIKY?!

* TL actually isn't paying me at all. They blew all their budget hiring SpongeBob to cast the round of 24 :/


Group A Preview
By: Epoxide


I can't believe myself when I say that a group with Sziky and TechnicS is the weakest group... That's what I said when the groups had just been put together, and some agreed with me. This is however only how I feel about the group as one. There are two clear favourites in my opinion - round of 16 invite Sziky and qualifier #1 runner-up TechnicS. These two players will make it very far, either ending up in the final or in the semifinals. These two are two of the strongest players in the foreign scene.

TechnicS has absolutely crushed so far. Not losing a single game as Zerg in the TLS yet. The bulgarian Zerg has only lost to eOnzErG trying to beat him as Protoss, just because he felt that's how strong he is. Unexpectedly for many, TechnicS crushed his round of 24 group beating both Drone and Pro7ect in convincing fashion.

Sziky is a well known player, undoubtedly the strongest foreigner. He has gone toe to toe with players like Pusan, Sky, Anytime, HiyA, sAviOr, and Dove. Most famously beating (Wiki)Doctor.K in a showmatch. Lately in the foreign scene he has 2-0'd both dRaW and eOnzErG, and beaten players like Pike, Bakuryu, TechnicS, Karate, and Bibiane. The list goes on and on. Something else noteworthy that we put in the invite announcement was that Sziky has won ten defiler tours and won both ISL 2 & 3.

These two players are the reason why I call this group the weakest out of the four. G5 and SouthPark both barely made it into the round of 16, finishing second in their groups going 2-1. Their games were not played in convincing fashion either. G5 managed to dodge INF3cted due to a walkover and was counted out against TTF for a while until he amazingly pulled it back. SouthPark did beat Jim two times in ZvZ but looked shaken during the game against dRaW. These two will have a rough time getting out of this group.

Sziky should prove to be too much for anyone in this group both in ZvZ and ZvP. Sziky beats Southpark in the first game. TechnicS plays G5 in game two, TechnicS' play is too solid for G5 to beat, in a long game or with some tricks up his sleeve. TechincS goes on to the winners' match. The match between Sziky and TechnicS can be close, it's hard to tell exactly what form Sziky will bring on that day. Although TechnicS 3-0'd Sziky in the (Wiki)BWMN Open it was on wacky maps and it's not certain both parties played to their full extent. There is no doubt in my mind that Sziky will 2-0 this group. Even though SouthPark looked shaken against dRaW it was mostly due to him not managing to close out the game. He did in fact have an advantage for the majority of the game. If SouthPark can play out a game fully he should be able to win against G5. I expect TechnicS would want to win against Sziky, so he will have practiced his ZvZ a lot, and should win against SouthPark.

Epoxide's Predictions


(Z)Sziky <Neo Jade> (Z)SouthPark
(Z)TechnicS <Neo Jade> (P)G5
(Z)Sziky <Neo Ground Zero> (Z)TechnicS
(Z)SouthPark <Neo Ground Zero> (P)G5
(Z)TechnicS <Fighting Spirit> (Z)SouthPark


1. (Z)Sziky 2-0
2. (Z)TechnicS 2-1
3. (Z)SouthPark 1-2
4. (P)G5 0-2




Group B Preview
By: Epoxide


Before the scheduled time to referee last week for group F I was chatting to NeMu in the lobby. We were discussing how his round of 16 group would go. He was confident enough to let me decide what match-ups he was going to play. I told him he should play TvZ and ZvT.



Unfortunately for me NeMu isn't making it easy for me. He also said that he had practiced a lot with Cosy before his group. NeMu said that Cosy would also crush his round of 24 group. Needless to say Cosy got knocked out 0-2 as predicted. Even though NeMu tells me he is going to crush his group, considering the opposition he has to face, it's very unlikely that will actually happen.

The invite in this group is Michael. An incredibly strong Zerg on the team sas. Although not having played much lately he has won against players like vOddy and skzlime, but have lost to eOnzErG. This week though NeMu is his opponent. NeMu's insane confidence will scare Michael into defeat.

Pro7ect still hasn't felt scary at all, it hurts me so much to say that he is the underdog in the group. While Bakuryu has impressed lately getting out of his round of 24 group in first. The Mustache Zerg should prevail without too much trouble.

Even though I have NeMu's back I can't see him winning against Bakuryu, plus I'm too biased. Bakuryu goes 2-0 in the group. Much like Bakuryu; Michael is too strong for the current state that Pro7ect is in. Michael takes the game. Considering how crazy my previews have been so far I'll end on the bombshell that NeMu beats Michael again and advances to the round of 8.

PS. Any sane person would vote for Bakuryu and Michael in this group. I like TvZ.

Epoxide's Predictions


(Z)Michael <Neo Jade> (T)NeMu
(Z)Bakuryu <Neo Jade> (T)Pro7ect
(Z)Bakuryu <Neo Ground Zero> (T)NeMu
(Z)Michael <Neo Ground Zero> (T)Pro7ect
(Z)Michael <Fighting Spirit> (T)NeMu


1. (Z)Bakuryu 2-0
2. (R)NeMu 2-1
3. (Z)Michael 1-2
4. (T)Pro7ect 0-2

TIL Hyde is a hipster. A good thing too, or else we'd have to put two frowny faces in the picks for this group. Sziky and TechnicS are clearly the staff favorites here, and I think a poll of the general TL population would look similar. It's interesting to see such a clear cut vote even as far in as the round of 16, and it's a testament to just how strong those two players are. However, I wouldn't count G5 and SouthPark out just yet. G5 especially was faced with a lot of doubters after advancing from his round of 24 group and it looks like the staff continue to doubt him. With the opportunity to focus solely on his PvZ, I have a feeling that this old dog could come out and surprise everyone.

Once again, hipster Hyde is here to save the day! Although this time he is joined by Falling and Epoxide, giving our underdogs two votes apiece. It sounds kind of crazy to call Pro7ect an underdog in any situation, but that seems to be the case here. Or maybe the staff are just playing the odds and only picking Zergs to advance. Either way, NeMu is probably not too happy about all this. Our lone random player made it out of his round of 24 group despite getting just a single staff vote (go Epoxide!) and seems completely undaunted by the players in his round of 16 group. If he makes it to the round of 8 as well, it might be time for the staff to give him some credit.

Probably the most out of shape.
That video is a really brilliant perfectly executed. I bow to those involved.
As for the future, group A is indeed very predictable (but it's starcraft, it's not over till Fantasy ggs !), but group B is a bit harder. Michael and Bakuryu being two of my favorite people in the scene, I'll have to root for them !
Thanks guys, you're amazing !

amazing :D

Tbh this is the best composition of a group to knock out sziky, even though I think it can't happen. However, Southpark has a very good chance because most likely he will have to lose 2 zvzs to be eliminated. On the other hand, I believe Pro7ect will advance his group, he only has 1 matchup and it's his best. So even though he's not active lately, his mechanics should be enough to give it a real shot. I don't know about Michael's current situation but if it was a while ago I would say he will get out of the group 2-0 easily. Group B is quite hard to determine compared to group A, but I think overall it's a fair shot between those three, Nemu is a clear underdog.
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

We don't hate G5 haha. I reffed/rooted for him often in my UNBIASED referee-ing of the qualifiers!

Just...his group is insane. I'd love to be proven wrong and have G5 advance, but I just find him less likely than the two I picked :p

G5, Sziky, Pro7ect & Bakuryu would be the most entertaining to get through... I'll just be happy if 1 non-zerg can make it out of those 2 groups though.

Nice!! :D, i think Sziky and technnics will advance, i'm almost 100% sure. for group B i think Pro7ect and Michael are going to advance, Pro7ect must have praticed like an spartan to show everyone that he's not a pushover. so he may advance with the CheeseKing which is the only cheesy player that i like haha
Hydralisk so fasts and dangerous :D

Alright! I'll see if I've guessed better this time. I've gone from 100% to 50%. But I wouldn't mind getting it wrong if more P's and T's get through.

I know TL has done video recaps before but this is just on another level, amazing job Stratos. I loved the blooper reel at the end haha <3 Sayle. Also, am I the only one who read Sayle's write-up in his voice lol

Great previews too, Epoxide :D

Surprised theres so few votes for pro7ect. Wasn't he also supposedly "out of form" in the quals/ro24 also? Even then, his solid mechanics made him look pretty damn scary. His play was convincing despite very little practice and by his own admission not expecting to advance at all and was just doing it for fun. That said I do hope he has practiced a bit, if he actively tries to stay in form I think he'd be an easy pick to go far in this tourney.

Also hoping nemu advances. Need more chat rushes!

Edit: Also, just a FYI, I'm not seeing the event listed on the calendar?

Michael still better than Nemu, but as it stands, they both advanced. What I still find more amazing is how Nemu thrashed Pro7ect, and then the very next game used Pro7ect's 5 rax build to destroy Bakuryu.

How is it "pro7ect's 5rax build" ?
