Leenock's bracket isn't even hard. I agree with the post a few pages back.. the only time he got unlucky is when he was in the Up and Down group with Nestea and MarineKing.

If he's really Code S material(which I doubt since he looks insane in some games and then terrible in others) he'll easily plow through Boxer.

Leenock has had plenty of chances and messed them up himself, to be fair. It isn't all about getting bad luck with brackets. Leenock lost to Liveforever when he fell from Code S initially, if I recall correctly.

this

i can distinctly remember like 3 series that leenock through away way back when

that game 3 vs liveforever made me vomit

Let's not get mixed up here.

Check is not DRG nor Losira.

DRG is the new zerg hope.

Losira was in GSL Code S final.

Check is dead 5 seasons ago.


Check is not as bad as people think. Didn't he beat Nada in oGs v Prime just last week (although was subsequently beaten by HuK in what was a pretty epic game). I hope HuK shares some his insights on Check/Korean styles with Nani, Nani seems like the real deal in terms of true foreigner hope along with HuK.

Meh, if you watched the Nada vs Check game you'd understand why he doesn't get any credit for winning.

While in the vs Huk game he showed some skills, he still lost :/

Check was good in beta, but he hasn't been inspiring for months.....I'd say Nani has a good chance of mopping the floor with him.

Lol, what did i say...Nice brackets GOM ^_^

All the foreigners if they win round 1 will be playing against another foreigners in round 2, how kind! What a waste of time for them coming all the way out to korea to play someone they face day to day on the ladder! Lol oh well


If by all you mean 2 out of 5 then sure...

:/

As for Check vs Nani, it's a pretty interesting first match. I think people are writing Check off a bit too easily, he's not really looked all that bad lately and his ZvP looked alright vs Huk. Haha just realised he 3-0'd Fenix on NA to win Zotac US 10

Hrm, considering how stacked Code A is this year, the first round matchups are actually really good for the foreigners. It just makes me a bit sad that they will only get 1 day or so to prepare and will likely be very tired.
August 8th

First session:

FruitDealer vs Maru---- I just don't think FruitDealer is good enough anymore.
Banbanssu vs GanZi---- GanZi is super solid and on the rise.
SaSe vs Sniper---- SaSe was my bet to perform the best of the foreigners, unfortunately this is a pvz and the last pvz's i've seen from SaSe have been awful, so hopefully he's improved this matchup since then!
Check vs NaNiwa---- I think you're all underrating Check. Naniwa really struggles against Zerg, dismantled convincingly by a number of zergs in MLG and DH recently, and that coupled with the limited preparation time, might see him struggle.

Second session

sC vs Extreme---- sC avoids his weakest matchup, TvT. He's so talented I expect an easy win!
Tails vs Taeja---- Taeja has been very impressive recently, and I don't know a lot about Tails!
DongRaeGu vs InCa---- lol
anypro vs JYP---- random feeling the end is near for the Simpsontoss

August 9th

Tassadar
vs Fenix---- mmmm tassadar's aggression should be too much for Fenix to handle
YoDa vs TheBes----t the nightmare matchup for TheBest, a solid terran player!
BoxeR vs Leenock---- BoxeR's best matchup is TvZ, Leenocks is probably ZvT, so this should be a great series. I Like both, but Hopefully Boxer will advance!
Dream vs Maka---- I like Maka and think he's been performing well of late, but Dream is seriously good and unlucky not to be in Code S. He has a great mech tvt which i think is the best tvt strat comfortably!

August 10th

Jinro vs Lucky---- I don't know much about Lucky, but Jinro's TvZ hasn't impressed of late.
Luvsic vs Jjakji---- Jjakji is a potential winner of this tournament in my eyes, although his TvZ isn't his best It's still very good.
YuGiOh vs ThorZaIN---- Really hopeful more than anything. I don't like how he has so little time to prepare
MarineKing vs Hack---- If hack has a really solid mech TvT, I think it'll be too much for MarineKing

Well that is true but i mean he got Mkp and nestea in up and down once and this Up and Down He got dragged down by inca, But no one have had as hard as time as he getting up to code s again.

Extremely premature to award Naniwa the win over Check. Naniwa's PvZ record is pretty weak and ZvP is Check's best matchup. Check also has the booth experience.

Edit: OK he beat Moon at Columbus... but then he lost to him at Dreamhack.. Check is about as good as Moon at least. I don't know why people see this as an auto win for Nani..

He beat Moon at the first korean invitation MLG, 2-0 even in the pool play.

Yes, like I said he beat Moon at Columbus, but then lost to him more recently at Dreamhack.

And very convincingly at that. Check is okay, I'd have thought pretty similar to Moon..so It will be a very tough test, considering he basically has to get off the plane and play....
