This first match is really exciting.

(P)Stork's PvZ has been very strong of late but...
(Z)EffOrt is 19-3 in ZvP since April, working on an 11 game winning streak, and has rolled Stork twice in this run.

The alien has to be the favorite.

Ideally CJ 3-1's here, with (T)TurN taking his game by doing something crazy.

They are sending out a rookie zerg, any other team's player would lose like 70-80% of his matches, Hydra wins at least 50%.

Even with one of the strongest lineup the rookie trio, CJ keeps building for the future. This is how a team should be run!

I'm a Khan fan but true that man. I've got nothing but respect for CJ's coach. Who did win the best coach of the year award?

I really think CJ's coach should have won (in case he didn't).

SKT's coach won. To be fair, SKT's coach actually deserved it. Before he came, SKT was falling apart for some reason. After he came, SKT magically became #1 again. I am not sure what he did, but he achieved results.

But, I agree with you that the CJ coach deserve a big fat award. The guy held his team together during the toughest of times. Before CJ sponsored his team, Cho's team was always one of the poorest. Yet the guy got a talent for finding talented rookies and breeding them into amazingly strong players. Nal_ra, Reach and several other famous players had their roots in Cho's team, but they left when Cho simply isn't capable of giving them the salary that they deserve. That's the story of CJ, always losing talents left and right, but breeding and gaining them everyday as well through Cho's nurturing.


Stork v.s. Effort is definitely a must see. Stork is looking hot, but as somebody else pointed out, Effort is the ultimate ZvP specialist with 75% win rate. The Protoss that he destroyed are no rookies either. Although I do find it funny that he is 0-3 against Bisu, but 2-0 against Stork.

(Z)great > (T)sKyHigh
(T)TurN > (Z)Hydra
(P)M18M < (P)Movie
(P)Stork < (Z)EffOrt

Edit: Rationalizations, efforts zvp is far beyond storks pvz, and skyhigh is terrible so great should win. Movie is obviously better than the no namer toss khan sent out, and turn's been very impressive but im not certain on that prediction.

Khan hwaiting. Looking forward to stork crushing effort, though moon galive's 2 opening to the natural is rather disgusting to look at.

Imho, there is nobody on CJ who clearly deserves the 4th slot, so he has to change around the lineup every week to see who is doing well.

Like what khan is doing is training their nublets. Like khan's line up is already pretty much set. great-stork-jangbi-fbh. Turn can replace fbh every once in a while, but M18M is not good enough for jangbi yet. And odin is definitely not good enough for great, although odin is not really new.

(Z)Hydra likely got sent out on Outsider with the intention of sniping (Z)great. We've never seen Hydra's ZvT, and his ZvP is a work in progress, but his ZvZ seems very solid, and an excellent reason to keep playing him.

Also, someone above dismissed (P)M18M against (P)Movie, which is a mistake I think. I'm still not convinced of Movie's proleague stability, and M18M is not a bad protoss at all. If he was on Hwaseung, we'd see him every match.

I'm so excited for this one.

I'll be streaming, but I'll likely be streaming Sea v Jaedong instead of either Turn v Hydra or M18M v Movie (if the games go that fast) because that match up is just too epic.

M18M is pretty good, Movie isn't going to have an easy time with him at all. I like how everyone dismisses him as a random terrible protoss - Look at his record. Not bad at all for KHAN's #3 toss

Movie will still probably win - but it isn't going to be a cakewalk like some of you keep implying

That is why I am not a big fan of Effort. He overwhelms opponents with mechanics and wins even though he makes strategical mistakes here and there. I'd like him more if he shows out of the ordinary stuff sometimes or if his play feels more genious rather than super robot. But I guess that's what makes him such a ZvP beast.
