I love how close all the teams are getting in relative skill. Although it's bad for my fantasy team, it's creating less "oh, lecaf vs estro? autovote" and more "oh well, i better at least check what the lineups are." It's creating a lot more dynamic proleague that I'm really really excited to follow!

and uh...Stars fighting!

Well, honestly it was expected. I'm actually a bit surprised that Ace took a match though...and it was Mumyung...dang...

wow, ACE are for real, casy showed some amazing skills and low econ style. Surprisingly Reach got totally outmicro'd by bisu, not that surprising tbh but I've expected him to come short in other aspects of the game, not exactly this one

Although it was a 3-1 win, I feel like this was a great set of games from ACE. Their play is very inspired, and I think we'll see some victories in the near future. ACE HWAITING!

Yeah, it didn't feel like the usual rape. I think they are a month or so away from being a decent PL team, good enough to not be overlooked by anyone. They gave T1 a really good fight, which despite its horrible record on PL, has one of the best individual lineups out there.

What I noticed from the last 2 ACE games:
- Although they are not going to win the PL, this is not anymore a team that others can afford to send their benchwarmers against anymore. This team on a good day could beat anyone.
- I thought (T)

Casy was going to be terrible, but his display today was brilliant. Such a shame he was against the fastest TvTer right now. Seems like he hasn't lost the Neo-Emperor touch.
- (P)

Reach. He was manly as always, but (P)

Bisu's defense was extraordinary. But no worries. Not a lot of protoss out there that can take his one-two punch and not hit the floor instantaneously.
- (P)

Anytime. He did good last match, and he did as well in this one. No shame in losing to (P)

BeSt. He will come through. I still believe (P)

Anytime is the one to become the new flagship of this generation's ACE.

Oh yeah, I also learned that T1 + Zerg = LMFAO. I hope this was just one game or I'm going to hate myself for putting (Z)

Thezerg in my Fantasy PL team.

MuMyung was, is, and always be the original Prince of Zerg. I don't know what you chobos are so surprised about

I remember some years ago, I think it was just right after they moved to their new T1 house, Boxer saying in an interview that mumyung was one of the zergs with the most raw talent and potential, but that for some unknown reason he kept failing, especially at individual leagues. I never liked mumyung, but Boxer was right about oov and stork, so he really must have seen something in him.

Also, I remember H.O.T. in an interview saying that all the ACE players were easy to work with exept Mumyung, who never listened to advice and was lazy or something like that.

Which will explain why despite all the talent Boxer saw in him, he never achieved anything.

God this new PL structure from Kespa is killing Ace. No 2v2s and if they keep drawing mirror matches....gg ace.
