You know what I'd love to see? Ending WoL with a Nestea/MKP finals. Not sure if it's possible for the brackets to work out this way, and they might not be the best games, I just think it would be a great way to end the WoL season with a rematch of the open season 2 finals. :D

And for a third time Noblesse gets shafted when it comes to his Code S group lol. Will be interesting to see how well he performs this time around, he was looking mighty promising during his Code S debut in August 2011 and then kinda fell off the map completely, nobody questioning whatever happened to him.

Betting on TaeJa and SoulKey to make it through though. Hwaiting~

I really wanted a situation that previous legends can finish off WOL with a bang. Sadly Mvp did not make. I'm rooting for Nestea to do the closing act :D

I think the writer underestimates Nestea's current shape.

Saying that it's almost impossible for him to go to the ro4 is harsh. Everyone in code S except Life is not expected to go to the round of 4 since code S equals variance. But Nestea has about the same odds as anyone else except the zerg genius.
He beat Parting, Marineking and lost to DRG by the slimmest margin recently. Besides, he showed a dominating form.

I'll repeat that code S is the tournament with the most variance so it'll be stupid to say "Nestea ezpz", but he is one of the current best players here.

During Life's reign of terror where he won Code S Season 4, MLG Dallas, the Blizzard Cup, and most recently Iron Squid II, Soulkey has been the only player to completely shut down Life in every aspect of the game and make the best player in the world look inferior.

Snute, IPL5.

RorO's advancement makes it two elephants who are qualified for the Ro16 so far with Soulkey and Innovation yet to play.

So PartinG is an elephant now? Or who am I missing?

Either way, GO TAEJA!!

Rematches are an aspect of the game. Beating someone that now has a bead on how you like to play is an important factor. Though in Snute's case he never had to play Life twice so the point is moot.

I'm not saying Snute's performance equals to Soulkey's, and I won't, cause it's not, and what you're saying is right. I'm just saying that what I quoted was wrong, cause Snute did that too, even if it was only in one Bo3.

Snute also didn't make Life look inferior, he won with a smart nydus gamble.

TaeJa and Soulkey but not easily. This will be a sick group to watch.

Most likely will be 2 Zergs advance in this group. No way Nobleless can make it and not anyone can be sure of Taeja atm.

Even an injured Taeja can get out of here.
On that note, I'm off to make my animal sacrifice for my lord nestea
