Predicting Bisu to reveal a revamped PvZ and destroy Luxury. From there, he will either all kill, or get stopped by Flash, who will proceed to lose to some combo of Best/Fantasy.

Predicting a SKT1 win but either way counting on seeing some awesome games!

Luxury < Bisu
Flash < Bisu
KTF Mascots < Bunky

KTF Forfeits.

OR

Luxury < Bisu
Flash > Bisu
Flash > Fantasy
Flash < Best
Random Noob < Best
Random Noob < Best

This is probably the most ridiculous prediction ever. You are saying that:

a) KTF will try to snipe Bisu with a Zerg KTF will try to snipe Bisu with a Zerg he raped in GOM
b) KTF would rather leave the match up to Tempest than Flash
c) T1 will put its match hopes in the hands of their weakest A-team player


a) PvZ is Bisu's worst match-up. The KTF coaches are retarded, they'll try to snipe him with zerg twice. They should just send FlaSh out immediately. Then when Bisu is taken down throw out Tempest/HoeJJa/Firefist. But they won't do that. Never underestimate the power of the KTF staff to make a stupid call.
b) Where did I write Tempest? Is FlaSh tempest? HOW INTERESTING
c) Bisu is their best player. Then BeSt. Then Fantasy. Midas/BoxeR/Iloveoov/Thezerg all have no chance of beating FlaSh straight up, BoxeR is most likely to do some cool cheese and actually win.

Why do people automatically assume Bisu is the best PvZ ever just because he took Daezang's build and did it better?

His losses to by.hero, sAviOr, and ZerO showed his weakness in that match-up compared to PvP and PvT, and his games against HoeJJa in GOM was impressive but showed a weak early game.

For the record, here are my picks. I find it hilarious that people think Bisu's PvZ is suddenly his weakest MU after close losses to sAviOr and ZerO on Neo Harmony and Destination. I attribute the loss to by.hero to being overworked. Has anyone checked how many games Bisu had in the last 2 weeks? It's been insane.

Anyway:

(P)Bisu > (Z)Luxury
(P)Bisu > (P)Tempest
(P)Bisu > (P)Stats
(P)Bisu < (T)Flash
(P)BeSt > (T)Flash

I know Tau is slightly P > T, but so is Andromeda. I just don't see KTF bringing out Flash until they absolutely need to - if Bisu beats Flash, the match is over.

For a), see my post above - I just don't buy it. PvZ will always be Bisu's strong suit, don't be fooled by the fact that he has played some Zergs with perfect execution on Z > P maps.

As for b), I was referring to the fact that you predict KTF will send out Flash as their third player - thus leaving the match in Tempest's (or some other equally crappy player) hands when he loses.

So the fact that sAviOr, ZerO, and by.hero played perfectly and hardly imbalanced maps is a coincidence and Bisu is still the PvZ wonderkid? Right.

But FlaSh probably won't lose. Especially on maps like Medusa/Destination/Andromeda. The kid actually does better on P>T maps than anything else. IIRC he went almost undefeated v.s Protoss on Katrina, and he almost always wins on Medusa.

Tempest isn't even bad. He's a threat to anyone save Bisu/BeSt, and the only hope KTF has of eliminating them is with FlaSh, or by sniping BeSt with Firefist/Hoejja on a map like Destination/Tau Cross.

Don't forget that Tempest actually beat Best in the proleague. Sure, it was a huge upset, but Tempest is able actually to take down any player in SKT1 (save for Bisu) with some luck (of course emphasis on the luck factor ).

Yeah, Tempest has a lot of potential. He just needs consistency.

Tempest can beat alot of people but hes kind of a moron and does dumb shit at the worst time and ends up losing. Stats is a bit different hell put on the greatest games and somehow end up losing. By.sair looked promising but hasnt been heard from in like forever. Firefist...meh...By.Haran..meh maybe? Oh well I picked ktf cause they were 0 pts.

edit: I dont think you need a revamped pvz to beat luxury, I mean if you any good at the matchup, like Bisu is. I mean he beat jangbi and stork..but I dont have much confidence in his zvp, especially after the set with shuttle.

This is why I think KTF will send Protosses against Bisu, rather than Zergs: PvP involves more BO advantages.

Well, Dr.Helvetica, now we both have a good reason to watch this match! My predictions against yours: FIGHT!

I hope Bisu's been practicing PvZ like hell...

Actually, ZvP is Luxury's worst match-up. Maybe it won't be that hard

KTF needs an early win so they aren't forced to send out Flash faster than they would like.

Imo the whole series will be decided in the first match.

If memory serves right.... not too long ago... Bisu practically owned Flash in Medusa map in several ways (1 being that Flash decided to camp and tank himself in for a while....) And also, Bisu has a good chance on Medusa map as well since he has a high ratio of win there.... In any case, like how some people said, this is either going to be a total rape of KTF or SKT-T1 with the first game and the first players on each team deciding the entire matchup..... Bisu or Lux..... at least in my personal sake and opinion, Bisu better win or my fantasy will be ALL IN RUINS!!!!!

If Luxury beats Bisu on Medusa, Fantasy is the only person who can take him down from there.

If Bisu wins, KTF still has a chance with a snipe/FlaSh all-kill.

BeSt can definitely beat Luxury. Lux's ZvP is still garbage IMO, forget about the KHAN all-kill.
