This surprised me as well. However, everything worked out great for T1 because fOrGG is a beast at TvP but he sucks at TvT, so Canata is actually the better choice in that set. I would have liked to see BeSt take down JD in the fourth set but this way T1 is basically guaranteed to win the ace game. | ||

It's definitely allowed, but you will rarely (if ever?) see a team do it because I think it's pretty taxing to play two competitive games back-to-back on different maps and against different opponents. Usually if a team wants to use a player twice (have him appear in the lineup as well as the ace game) they will play him in one of the first two sets - think KTF with Flash. Actually, I'm not sure about this: what is the history on using a fourth-set player in the ace game? I've never seen it happen (in my experience teams usually choose someone who hasn't played yet). Has anyone? | ||

Usually with players like GGPlay, Free, Much, Stork and so on. | ||

Hard to predict this one it could go either way though with boring matchups (player AND race wise) like that I don't really care. | ||

HiyA is decent TvT but Midas is just the better player (especially lately, check his beastly PL record which includes wins over Mind and Hwasin). fOrGG is awful in mirrors but Canata is basically a TvT sniper. The 2v2 is impossible to call but Bul_T and Rumble have won their last three games on Hannibal...absolutely no way Lecaf can go 3-0. And guys, + Show Spoiler + | ||

Remember when Bisu went up against ChRh in the fourth set and Boxer in the ace match in last year's proleague? (MBC vs KAF) | ||

I predict 3-0 for T1, but a 3-2 win Best > Jaedong wouldn't be so bad either! Edit: holy sht Jaedong's ZvZ is approaching 80%. I know hes a monster in that MU, but I've never seen that before. I wasn't around during oOvs dominance, and I only ever saw sAviOr's ZvP peak at 70 something %. | ||

I wasn't around during oOvs dominance, and I only ever saw sAviOr's ZvP peak at 70 something %. Oov was 80+% in TvP and TvZ, and around either high 60's low 70's in TvT in the MSL. There's a picture of it in one of Plexa's threads on the Gorilla. | ||
