Reach fans please don't get excited ... it's just going to be pitiful rape all over again. Now Oov fans on teh other hand ... there's some cause for excitement there. Can he all-kill ACE?

Interesting how some teams took a modest approach sending an "ok" player out first in an attempt to avoid snipage while others sent the big man on campus out right away.

Oh man haha that would be supremely awesome.

I'm interested to see how Memory and GuemChi do in particular, as I recall it's been a while since we've seen them hasn't it?

Haha, love the KTF coach's decisionmaking there. Luxury vs Bisu is going to be downright painful. If he was going to throw out a sacrificial lamb on Medusa, he could at least have chosen someone useless. Even if Luxury somehow won, he'd just have to deal with probable Fantasy mech on Destination...

I'm pretty happy about how the ACE-T1 match turned out, though. Either we get to see iloveoov win or ACE avoids being allkilled, not to mention the possibility of an epic Casy vs oov match on RH3.

I hope Reach cheeses Stork or something

9-9 gate manlots? I don't want to sit and watch Stork win or even play in four games in a row, ugh.

Either way, I'm really excited. It's going to be so disappointing when they go back to regular Proleague after this.

Wow, looks like T1 wants to use Ace for practice and trying to get Oov back in the groove of things. I'm surprised Khan isn't doing the same thing, like putting Frozean in there to get him some wins and build some confidence. It's going to be painful to see Stork all-kill Ace, starting with Reach.

The KTF vs Khan is going to be awesome. After Jangbi rapes 815, the next 3 maps are all fairly terran favored and Flash will come out. It will be interesting to see how well Khan can prepare for him on the subsequent maps.

Or Proleague Playoffs last year where Bisu just fucking choked at his best MU. Shit happens. Lux might learn to play ZvP overnight somehow. Who knows?

oov powa. I predict an all-kill on ACE to open the season. Boxer has been feeding him Rages weaknesses and... o who am I kidding. He doesn't need Boxer's help :p

Not at all, this is probably the first intelligent decision the KTF coach has made in a long time.

Think about it. Flash was winning on Medusa because he was using the only viable build and now that Bisu has proven he can counter it, sending a terran out would be suicide. Luxury is the only player KTF has that is capable of taking a game off of Bisu on that map and Flash can win on a less imbalanced map in the likely event that he SKT takes the first set.

While you could say that putting up a throwaway player on Medusa might be a better decision, it was far better than putting up Flash. That more than anything else would have been KTF fail.

I am surprised OGN send go.go as the lineup opener. I thought he was a cheesing fag best used as a sniper.

I think that by week 3 all teams are going to send an average player against the other teams average player both with an all-in strat with the mind of "if he wins, good, if not, whatever", making it basically a coin-toss to see who gets to snipe first.
