SKT1 will win because they only have to play one match. The other teams will be exhausted.
4v4 is a battle of who has the better computer.

best is actually not as good anymore. his macro is pretty good but the rest of his game kinda fell off after his loss to july.

but you're totally right about thezerg. he's just bad.

Reading the OP made me wonder how much more money SKT1 must have from its sponsor than any of the other companies. That they can support Bisu and Boxer is amazing enough, but Best, who made an OSL final, as well as Fantasy, who made two, must have large contracts now as well. They're like the Yankees of proleague, if you will, in the sense that they have the most "best" players in the world right now and they appear to spend a lot doing it.

Fantasy doesn't perform well in proleague play, however, so I wouldn't expect him to be an auto-win. Someone like lomo from oz can take him down.

Canata's become pretty good too (*points at the Canata international fancafe - join it!).

Plus don't underestimate the power of the coaches - the newish head coach really kicks ass, as does Oov. Remember that SKT (for better or for worse) has changed TvZ to be more often mech than bio.

And everyone underestimates the SKT Zergs - I will predict that collectively they will get at least a 33% win percentage in the finals, which will be a contribution to SKT's win.

The reason skt1 will win is because they only have to win once. That and their players can be assigned to maps now so they will have an absolute shit ton of practice before they even find out who they are against.

So you're saying Best is fat? Fatter than July? Is that why he lost that OSL?

Okay man, let's go back to square 1 with you. Do you see the tank in the picture?


So, REALLY fat then?

RAWR!!

Great writeup fana, this thread just pwned the other newb threads.

T1 shall humiliate any team that dares to get to the grand final!


OH MY is that (P)BeSt? Look at those nerd muscles.
Hate to say it but SKT1 has an over stack lineup T_T they have so many MONSTER players(Bisu, (P)BeSt, (T)Canata, (T)fantasy, (Z)Thezerg and (Z)Hyuk) that can win in any set on finals. Hope there players don't choke against who ever they play on finals.


Thezerg? Hyuk? MONSTER PLAYERS? Someone needs to check up on their TLPD, those kids dont even have winning percentages.


not even Canata or Best are MONSTER players...


Have you seen the tank?

I was scrolling the other thread about Why Stx will win the Proleague and I get to the picture with (Z)by.hero. His look full of confidence tells me "yeah, the time has come to show why I'm 3-1 vs Bisu".




hero? the by.hero that got buttraped so brutally by leta that he needs to wear a stoma for the rest of his life? ya, sure.


great article, skt1 will fucking pwn any team they face in the finals.

there will be a map that seems unfavourable to zerg so they can send best out there to claim a win, bisu is pretty much autowin against 90% of the opponents and still like 75% win against the rest, and fantasy is also great if he got time to prepare. canata is playing his best sc ever recently, so he is a good bet to get the 4th win. and the skt1 zergs arent THAT bad, if they face not-so-high-caliber players from other teams they can very well contribute a win aswell.

and when it comes to an acematch skt1 (bisu) has the advantage over any1 except oz who could send jaedong.

but well, how fucking epic would be an ace match in the grand finals between bisu and jaedong? but that wont happen, im pretty sure that hite, cj or stx will defeat oz in the semifinal.

And what if I don`t? What if I refuse to call him "Emperor" and call him the Dark Prince instead? What are you going to do then? COME ON, I DARE YOU!!!

On a more serious note, I also agree that SKT has the most chances to win the Proleague. Other teams have their ace`s, but they get tired out as they are featured in practically any series the team plays. SKT, on the other hand, might as well be called the all-stars team since they are literally packed with either talented or successful players.

If Flash and Jaedong joined SKT1, KeSPA would probably have no choice but to proclaim the end of the world.....at least until the SC2 scene would develop anyway.

i think that fantasy and best earn less than you think, as they became that good in SKT and they may have old contracts. additionally they aren't as good/popular as bisu and boxer


to be honest SKT can't loose. i'm hoping for a SKT vs. Hwaseung final and Bisu will beat Jaedong again
