I'd say he's in pretty solid form right now, just not as dominant. His baseline isn't perfect and he still drops games but his ability to peak is clearly present in his current form. His mindset seems in a good place as well, he just has to peak at the right moment. Taking all of that into consideration I'd say he won't make it into the Ro8 as per usual. 3-4 weeks ago, he literally went like 1 month with 75% winrate(beating light in bo7 etc), now he is like 50% tops, losing games(yes games, more than 1) to players that never played proleague etc feels really different
You seems to be very passionate about Jaedong Encore results tho. By that metric every pro is doing poor lol. My feedback has been from watching proleagues and sponsored practise games he has been playing. He is doing poor recently. Bisu on the contrary has been a ''knife'' in pvz but no so good at TvP. So we will see how that goes. Cuz if Bisu actually fail to beat Ample and he meet JD at losers then this group will be onfire.

sure, if we look at proleague only results JDs last 2 weeks - 45% winrate(20 games, 3/6 in zvp, 1/3 zvt), bisu - 67%(30 games - 16/4 in pvz, 3/2 in pvt), flash did not play any proleague but i think we can fairly say he is a clear fav vs both JD and bisu

Flash is solely focusing in ASL so there is not question. Proly the only player that is training harcore for it. He already said it will be the last time he plays on it.

There is quite a lot on the table during ProLeauge, especially was on thursday so that would be quite stupid, not to try ur best in front of your team.
Im here with eon on this. Bisu is in really good shape, he destroyed JD twice last week, once in super ace, leaving no doubts who is in better shape. Flash will prepared as he didnt participate in any PL for last week. And yet JD who lost twice with some C players in Escore in first round and playing poorly in PL. I dont see him advancing...

We will find out in 24 hrs!

Looks like Snow's near 3 year streak of top 4 finishes is finally over.

My predictions.
If Soma somehow beat Hero then a Soma vs FlaSH final will be a dream. But knowing how weak he is at zvz vs a zerg specialist is gonna be hard.

Soma got his absolutely worst possible draw. Hero's ZvZ is quite good.

tulbo > hero 4-0 easiest bet of my life
|
Why are you guy so optimistic about Flash? I think he'll really suffer a crushing defeat against Snow this time, just like ASL5.

Snow’s gonna get rekt.  No 3rd World for him to fall back on.

Map pool is really good for Terran this season. Only the 2p maps will be a struggle for FlaSh and I'm sure he will prep something really stupid on those maps to catch Snow offguard. Very different from ASL5.

leta vs tulbo is such a troll wildcard ro8 match lol
soma > flash for finals pls
if soma manages to break gods ankles on this map pool and defend his title we'd have a really cool storyline

soma has the easier side of the brackets to finals

This season is the easiest guess in ASL's history ever.
soma < HERO
Leta > tulbo
JD > Light
SnOw > FlaSh
HERO > Leta
JD > SnOw
JD < HERO
