If the games are going to be as lousy as they were yesterday I'm going to be really sad.

I can think of two jokes there...


I can't think of any T_T

Its their placement from providence but backwards.

Nestea didn't place that high so no that doesn't work. . . .

Maps arnnt lookin to good for terrans so i see some issues.

And i think nestea is gonna have some issues with antiga as naniwa is no slouch since hes ramped up his practice... any other map :S

Looking at player skill in a particular MU + map. i can see some upsets occurring that i would normally not have voted for.

Also didnt notice how harsh i was to polt lol. I defenitley think he could do better in BoX but he got shafted on maps for his Bo1s imo.

Wish i watched more than ZvX. gets kind of hard to predict all the matches :/, and im zerg biased :D

I say:

3: Leenock
4: Polt
5: Naniwa

Naniwa said himself that he's still a little jet-lagged in the interview in the OP, and unless he is just trying to set a fallback if he loses, that could affect his play pretty hugely

Naniwa just CAN'T do bad in this one.. He's up against two zergs, PvZ is his best match up. He's against a Terran who isn't all that good anymore, Polt, and a Terran who doesn't have that great TvP, MMA.

Is there anybody in this group I do not want to root for?

- I want to see NesTea finally overcoming MVP
- I want to see MMA rising to former glory ("former" means one-and-a-half month ago, but feels like eternity to me)
- I want to pinch Leenock's cheecks. besides, I really hope he wins this after his loss against jiakji in the finals
- I want to see Naniwa as the foreign hope advance, also I hope to see his true dedication to the game pay out
- my name is Optimus Prime and I am the only reason why JustPassingBy hopes that several of his favourite progamers won't quit sc2 when they hit military

Even though I LITERALLY just posted predictions tho, I have to say the more I look at this group, the more it looks like yesterday's group in that I wouldn't be surprised no matter what the results.

Such an awesome pool of players for this thing, predicting this stuff is almost impossible hohoho

I remember tastosis saying they will be casting 3 days I think when they were previewing this on one of the code S casts. Assuming we will see them for Ro6/Ro4/Finals

Can't wait for MMA vs Nestea/Leenock. Actually all of these games should be amazing

Yeah I'm starting to think the best way to get games (esp when u pit the best of the best against each other) is to have the traditional tourny format where they can prepare, and not play spontaneously like this. We often see more good games in GSTL cus of the spontaneous thing forcing players to improvise more and use their arsenal of strategies and knowledge than 1 thing prepared, but I think that only applies to the non top players xD

MMA -> Nestea -> Leenock -> Naniwa -> Polt

NesTea <Daybreak> MMA
MMA has Nestea's number and that badass TvZ isn't just going to disappear

Leenock <Bel'Shir Beach Winter> NaNiwa
Leenock roflstomped MLG, and broke its curse by beating Nani...

NesTea <Crossfire SE 1.1> Polt
Nestea very stronk vs slumping players

MMA <Dual Sight 1.1> Leenock
MMA > Many many zergs. Maybe this one as well... hard to call

NaNiwa <Tal'Darim Altar LE> Polt
Naniwa is too stronk against struggling Polt... poor Polt

Leenock <Antiga Shipyard 1.1> NesTea
Nestea is dominant vs. zergs...

NaNiwa <Calm Before the Storm> MMA
MMA is the son of fucking boxer. Naniwa is the son of Mr. Luchessi.

Leenock <Shakuras Plateau 2.0> Polt
Leenock is stronk vs. struggling Polt... poor Polt

NaNiwa <Antiga Shipyard 1.1> NesTea
Nestea did lose to Naniwa, but if I were nestea, I'd be out for blood

MMA <Bel'Shir Beach Winter> Polt
There is a theme here and it recurs

I am quite confident Naniwa will make it out of this group. It's just a question of what place he takes.

It's a hard group to predict. I really hope Naniwa makes it out, and doesn't meet Mvp in the ro6. I want them to meet in the finals.
Nani said in his interview that he was still quite jet lagged. I hope it doesn't affect his play too much.
What a player

Polt's TvP post-patch not nearly as good as it was pre-patch, obviously, and MMA abysmal win rate vs Protoss.

MMA < Nestea; Pretty Zerg favored map, not a lot MMA can do dropwise unless he kills nestea before tier2
MMA > Leenock; DS is pretty good for drops, also very good for harass, wide open nat. Conversely this hurts his defense too.
MMA ? Polt; MMA wants to beat Polt. His lategame vT is good but we know how Polt plays. Wouldn't be surprised by rush.
MMA < Naniwa; 43% TvP

Nestea > Leenock; though Nestea has a bad history with Antiga, (lost to BBP, Huk, Tails, off the top of my head) practice.
Nestea > Polt; Polt does a 2base timing, Nestea holds
Nestea > Naniwa; If I'm wrong about this I'll be so disappointed in Nestea.

Leenock > Polt; Polt's TvZ not fantastic
Leenock > Naniwa; even though Belshir Beach Winter is statistically favorable for P... Leenock has a good read

Naniwa ? Polt, 50/50; hard for terrans to beat protoss, even for polt. However would not be shocked if he did marine tank (raven) rush and Naniwa holding.
