TRUE beat the opponents he was matched against which is all that you can ask of anyone, but I don't see how you could have watched today's games and say he displayed a quality of play which foreshadows success in the round of 16.

You mistook me. I saw True's success back in ASL19.

What a crazy group to round out the Ro24. All the games were just head turners, herO not fighting 2 health lings with his drones, Royal just dying to a 2fact, the clown show of both the winners and losers match.

True better pull some crazy shit out in Ro16 and I'm always rooting for Barracks so happy to see him advance

Royal's results after winning ASL14 have been diabolical:
ASL15: 0-3 in Ro16
ASL16: 0-3 in Ro16
ASL17: 0-3 in Ro16
ASL18: 2-4 in Ro16
ASL19: 0-2 in Ro24
ASL20: 1-2 in Ro24
In hindsight, maybe he should have gone to the military during that period instead.

fun fact: if you exclude military service, that's the first time hero failed to make ro16 since VANT36.5 (over 20 seasons of making at least ro16). i hope the king of consistency snaps back, he deserves another title shot

here is where he was eliminated in the previous ASLs:

yup, I wasn't joking when I made the casy comparison, and even then casy at least made into one more Ro4 after that.

Yes , Royal hasn't been the same since he won!
That's why i went with rax instead of him
and i think hero is the most consistent player of ASL ever , even if he hadn't won a tournament. YET !

That's a lot of Zergs qualifying for Top 16 this season.
Feels like Z>T and Z>>P right now.
Terrans just die when Zerg hits Hive and they can't break that 2nd expansion.

Light is currently not in good shape after his one month or so break. Snow probably worst form in years. I think both have two kids now and are kind of distracted. Daddy responsibilities have taken its toll guys, be prepared for Soulkey's 7-peat.

You obviously know soulkey builds his impenetrable fortress around out of competition pros? Any titleholder in the defensive matrix can break the illusion any time. I say he is the reason Hero is performing so poorly since top competition is so different to prepare than the group stages.

I guess the many Zergs is also a problem for SK, because he can't avoid the volatility of that match-up either. Although I guess he'll make another one-Zerg group for himself...

Hero VS Royal was something else entirely, as well as that ZvZ to begin with. Fantastic matches, though not entirely in the most positive way. Very happy I decided to catch the VOD of this amazing group, haha.

If only Royal would stick to standard low risk play. He is really good at it. but something in him makes him want to play risky or out of the box.

Players employ the strategy they think delivers the highest chance of winning. If a player plays risky or unorthodox, that's usually because they're either not confident in winning a standard game. Whether their internal evaluation is correct or not is a different question.

To me it feels more like Z>P and Z>>T right now. Protosses look way more competitive imo. Perhaps it is because Terrans don't actually have S tier players left, but Protoss do

To be more precise is like there is Soulkey > everyone and then the best Protosses = the best Zergs while Terrans are not a factor on this level atm

Unorthodox true, but risky/aggressive is actually considered the thing your supposed to be doing if your the better player in korea. In the west we say play standard and safe if your better but koreans 100% disagree.
