except that sziky doesnt play bw anymore,the last time he did was in some nationwars and loss to gargoyle.i guess he will need like 1-2 months atleast to recovery a bit.

Yeah, Sziky will have to practice and recover his skills. Now he won't have a chance.

But Scan hit C on Fish with Zerg, no? If his off-race is higher ranked than koget (and we assume that both are legit players who don't dodge), then it's still a valid premise.

yeah but dong's main is z and scan is t and if Scan reached C with Z on fish, he played with good ZvT settings mostly. Now they won't have that good of a connection I think... It will be a somewhat interesting showmatch and it will prove that Scan's offrace is better than dong222's main if he wins 14:0.

But then again... they can't resemble the conditions under which koget played vs dong222. Koget played game after game to try and outplay his opponent. He wanted to win him as many games as possible and they didn't know in advance how many games they would play so the mind games were based on the previous games alone. He didn't want to just take a single game and run. Now money are on the line and koget might feel the temptation to want to win "the event". They know in advance that the target amount of games is 14 so the mind games change and koget might play differently than he would vs dong222 and try the occassional 14cc or proxy barracks which he wouldnt vs dong222.

It's a showmatch. It doesn't need to 'prove' anything... They both accepted the challenge.

Exactly so. I also believe Koget must have had a bad day when he played against dong222. There is no way to not snipe once an opponent, even if its Effort, while being in good shape.

My bet: Scan 8:6 Koget

8:6 is way to much imo

2-3 games from Scan is the best he can hope for. (assuming they gonna play without lags)

BisuDagger and Catspaw both want to cast the replays asap. I'm not sure if kogeT and Scan will stream the matches live on their Twitch channel?

Scan is a Terran user and 2v2 random user so he will have no problems with ZvT until they play on high latency. High latency and ZvT changes too much, because the matchup depends on muta micro. If koget practiced some, and thought about the series, he will most likely take 1-3 games. If he is going to play random builds like vs dong222, it might go directly 14-0. Korean players are good against unprepared builds.
