I think MKP can beat Hack and I think Maka can beat Dream, but I'm still worried about those two. Code A is looking great, especially with all the foreigners! | ||

Glad to see Jjakji qualified, but was hoping to see one or two more NSHoSeo players, like Sage or Sculp make it. | ||

Maka always got knocked out by TvT didn't he? He is kind of like Polt (not just because they look similar  ). They both have good scores in TvP and TvZ but not TvT (though Polt's TvT record has gone up recently and Maka's isn't bad... but I always thought it was his worst). | ||

Ro32 Fruitdealer 2:1 Maru Banbanssu 0:2 Ganzi Sase 2:1 Sniper Check 2:0 Naniwa sC 2:1 Extreme Tails 2:1 Taeja DongRaeGu 2:1 InCa (although an upset wouldn't surprise me) anypro 1:2 JYP Tassadar 2:0 Fenix Yoda 2:1 TheBest Boxer 2:1 Leenock Dream 1:2 Maka Jinro 1:2 Lucky Luvsic 0:2 Jjakji YugiOh 2:1 Thorzain MarineKing 2:0 Hack That's what i think it will look like. Hoping that Jinro and Fenix can win though. Don't like Naniwa at all and hope Check wins as i always liked him back in the wc3 days. About Thorzain i don't know, i think YugiOh is too strong. | ||

(A) FruitDealer vs Maru - FD has been pretty bad lately, but I don't know enough about Maru to go against FD in this one. Strong possibility that this could be a shock upset. (A) Banbanssu vs GanZi - The Count did not look good in the last season and Ganzi is coming off some strong tournament performances. I'm going with Ganzi here. (C) Yoda vs TheBest - This will be a volatile match I think. It'll depend a lot on whether or not Yoda being able to scout and defend all ins from TheBest. I know Wolf likes to say that TheBest is more than a one trick pony, but so far all the games I've seen him in where he tries to macro end pretty badly. I think Yoda has enough talent to get over the line, especially given he owns some wins against Top Terran players. (D) Luvsic vs Jjakji - The statistics here are pretty grim for Luvsic. His win rate versus Terran is quite dismal and Jjakji happens to be quite strong against Zerg. Also, Jjakji is from NSHoSeo who've been performing extremely well as a team lately and I'm going to stay on that trend until they begin to falter. Second session (B) sC vs Extreme - I don't see SC going out in the first round of Code A, and this is a good match up for him. I don't think Nextreme will be moving on. (B) Tails vs Taeja - I'm going to go with Taeja is this match. He's got some impressive Protoss scalps on his belt. (B) DongRaeGu vs InCa - I feel really sorry for Inca. He pulled the absolute worst match up. Not only is he bad vs Zerg, but he's also playing one of the fastest rising stars in Korea from any race. He'd have to practice his butt off and hope DRG has an off day to get through this with a win, unfortunately. (B) anypro vs JYP - I'm giving the edge to AnyPro here, but it's PvP so anything could happen. August 9th (C) Tassadar vs Fenix - I would like to see Fenix do well, but at the moment I don't know if I can go against a NSHoSeo player. This is especially true after Tassadar went all the way to the finals last season. The only worry for him is bouncing back from the disappointment of not making it into Code S. Also, funny that the two Protoss hero units are going at it. (D) MarineKing vs Hack - I don't see MKP going down to Code B. It's possible, but I don't think he's going to let that happen. He's been a little shaky as of late, but I think he'll pull through so John the Translator's wish can come true and he'll get MKP's sister's number... ;-D (C) BoxeR vs Leenock - Historically BoxeR is pretty terrible in TvZ, but he dismantled Idra pretty easily and his game has really rebounded after some pretty disappointing results over the last 3 tournaments. I like Leenock as well though, he's a very solid player and boasts a good ZvT record. I'm going to go with BoxeR though, haha. (C) Dream vs Maka - MakaPrime.WE returns! August 10th (D) Jinro vs Lucky - Both players boast pretty average records in this match up so it's hard to pick a winner. I'm going with Jinro though because he's a player who has a lot of talent but is in one hell of a slump at the moment. I'm gambling on him bouncing back into top form. (D)YuGiOh vs ThorZaIN - I like ThorZaIN, I think he's a really smart player who develops really specific builds for his match ups. He also boasts a strong record vs Zerg as well. That said, YuGiOh is a SlayerS player so he'll have plenty of top practice partners for this match. I'm still going to go with ThorZaIN though, he's really impressed me in the past and I'm hoping for a continuance of this. (A)SaSe vs Sniper - I really haven't seen too much of either player. I'm going to go with SaSe though. Coin tossed it. (A)Check vs NaNiwa - I think he's the strongest foreigner coming to South Korea for the Code A tournament. He continually shows strong play despite never taking a tournament. I think he's the one to watch, although ThorZaIN isn't far behind him. Sorry, but there won't be a Holy Check this time. | ||

Ganzi should roll Banbanssu easily. Not sure about Sase because I never watched him play nor have I watched Sniper play. Naniwa can take this but Check has been practicing a lot on ladder so this one is a coinflip. sCfOu should win against Extreme Taeja should beat Tails if Tails do not practice hard enough and Taeja plays at his usual standards. DRG has a good chance of losing to InCa in my opinion. DRG might underestimate his opponent and slip but if he doesn't underestimate InCa, he will most likely win. No idea who JYP is so I do not kno who will win between anypro and JYP. Tassadar will roll through Fenix. TheBest is going to beat Yoda. TheBest is underrated as fuck. Boxer will win against Leenock. He looks so solid and Leenock is overrated in my opinion. Dream should win against Maka, but this one is tricky because Maka probably has improved a ton since we last saw him. Dream showed very solid play during the up and downs. Chances are, Jinro will also be knocked down into code B. He hasn't been playing well and I really think his time is over. Jjakji is very solid and will win against Luvsic. Thorzain has a good solid chance of advancing but I have not watched YugiOh play ZvT before so I am not too sure. Marineking will win if he manages to end the game before 15 minutes. If not, he is going to go back into code B. The only way he will win against Hack in a long game is if he either gets a huge early advantage or if he has drastically improved his late game management and macro. | ||
