[Preview] Storylines to Follow

-Yuzu. Fucking Yuzu. The person responsible for New Catsle University losing the K-Jungman finals when she failed to kill a 1 HP Cannon during her VERY scuffed Hydra Bust. "Let's retreat our army when I have the game in the bag!" Sigh. Will today be a redemption story for Yuzu? Will Yuzu make Ginewda (the captain of New Catsle) stop bad-mouthing her on his stream? Will Yuzu finally make Best (the president of New Catsle) stop hating her guts:

Let's talk about Yuzu's opponent a bit: Tyrano has insane late-game control for a Tier 8 player. If you saw the recent BB vs SSG Mini Battle, what the actual fuck? That maxed-out control group movement did not look like a Tier 8 Protoss! Seriously, Tyrano only played two games, and she went 2-0 (you can watch 2 games while you wait for this CK right?). Hyuk and BBangHun were losing their shit watching their student play out of her mind. Just incredible Protoss play:

-Dansol won the recent Nangni Cup, and she's currently the #1 ranked Tier 8 player on Eloboard: https://eloboard.com/ranking?tier=8

If Dansol performs well today, do not be shocked if she gets promoted to Tier 7 immediately after.

-Tama has been improving her game a lot recently, and JSA fans have taken notice. "Terran is the hardest race" meme still holds true at Tier 8 level. But Tama's been growing, slowly but surely. She's hitting 200 APM and she's spending her money well (I know that doesn't sound like a lot, but when you're a Tier 8 Terran, that's more than enough when you're still a brand new Terran player). And I hate doing this, but I do have to give some credit to JSA University and Sijosae here. Setting my K-University bias aside here, JSA University has been very patient and understanding when it comes to raising Terran students (it's the hardest race). Sijosae is a jackass, a jackass who doesn't like to keep his shirt on, but deep down behind the stream persona, Sijosae is actually a pretty empathetic guy who cares deeply about all students at JSA, and to his credit, he is a very patient teacher who doesn't like to rush his students. So I guess I'll put on the JSA hat just for today: Tama Fighting!
