Neither Hydra or Effort have been performing up to expectations; Snow, Horang2, and Movie have been underachieving, and the rest of CJ is a combined. CJ does have some good snipers for sure (Horang2 vP, Snow & Skyhigh vT), so if they get some really good matchups, they may be able to take down KT in the first round (assuming they beat ACE, which they probably will (although you never know... Any team could suddenly lose to ACE *COUGH* KT *COUGH*). Effort/Hydra vs. Stats would be good for CJ, as would Leta vs. any KT zerg, Horang2 vs. Perfectman, or Snow vs. Barracks. It's also worth noting that CJ's choice of ace is debatable against KT. Both of CJ's Zerg aces have vT as their poorest matchup... if it does come down to an ace match against Flash on a Terran-favored map (since KT gets to pick the first and last ace match maps - probably Ground Zero, at 78.6% TvZ (11-3)), CJ would probably be better off sending Leta as their ace, even though Flash's best matchup is vT. | ||

Keep in mind that Stats has a winning record over both Hydra and Effort, if I were CJ coach I'd try to put Leta or Horang2 vs Stats who's the only I'd really put him even with | ||

When CJ qualifies I'm hoping for the best possible match-ups. Effort/Hydra vs. Stats / Perfectman, Leta/ Skyhigh / Snow vs. Flash / Barracks, Horang 2 vs. P, Effort / Hydra vs. Z. Just something that's fun to watch. Skyhigh vs. Perfectman would be hilarious though | ||

I never remember Leta's vP to be all that good. (2-4 in the last year, with relatively unimpressive opposition. He did won against monstrous-form-Bisu last year though). Stats, despite being in poor form has always had rather good vT, and hes a Protoss. I ll say Stats has good chance vs Leta, and KT would probably wanna put Stats against Leta anw.

Together with Skyhigh I think they worked on a lot of tactics and it's still working for him to this day. As for KT being a threat to CJ - not so much. Snow, Leta & Skyhigh can give Flash a run for his money any day. Seeing as he lost to Dear & Stardust, Snow has a nice chance to point a finger at the emperor with no clothes. KT Zergs are non-issue since CJ can deal with them with any race. What's left? When CJ qualifies I'm hoping for the best possible match-ups. Effort/Hydra vs. Stats / Perfectman, Leta/ Skyhigh / Snow vs. Flash / Barracks, Horang 2 vs. P, Effort / Hydra vs. Z. Just something that's fun to watch. Skyhigh vs. Perfectman would be hilarious though I don't think Snow or Skyhigh can be considered to be able to "give Flash a run for his money" anymore (not many people can, mind.. But Snow or Skyhigh, imo, are even worse than those people (like Stork, Fanta, etc)..). Snow's vT is a thing of the past, as his recent games have been uninspiring at best. He almost lost to hOn_Sin this season (a bit better crisis management from Sin would have outright win him the game, if memory serves), and he lost to Last recently.. Neither of whom are impressive vP opponents. Skyhigh's recent vT form is even worse, i think. That leaves Leta, whos (imo) the clear best choice for Ace match. In a normal game though, CJ would probably want him to secure a win vs the Zergs, rather than siccing him on the Ultimate Weapon, who more likely than not would destroy him. | ||
