Hmm... I really think Liquid' is gonna 3-0
Sheth should be able to beat Bigs handily unless he's out of shape gamewise Mana looked extremely uncomfortable on TDA ZvP against Destiny-and zenio is definitely better then destiny :p Ret will probably beat morrow-i don't think Morrow will be able to take out ret with an early cheese, especially considering how well he held off Theognis in LvQXG. And if morrow goes for a macro game, the drone farmer should be able to beat him.
However, If it gets past the first three sets, unfortunately liquid might not make it. Thorzain will probably take out Hero unless a weird-butt cheese/timing is pulled out. Hero's recent losses to puma probably won't help his confidence in PvT, especially against the spoon terran.
Ace match will probably be really bloody close. If Mouz can get a good matchup for Mana/Thorzain/Morrow, they could probably take it. However, as long as Hero doesn't get matched up against Tzain he should be fine (alternatively, Zenio could probably take down anybody on Mouz).

Mouz 3-1 or 3-2, I think. They tend to do well in teamleagues. Mana will probably lose, and maybe biGs or Morrow. Should be a good series, though.

What is this "weird-butt cheese" you speak of? Gave me a chuckle

biGs hasn't been getting much attention for how well I have seen him play, so taking down Sheth wouldn't be the most surprising thing, but I will still predict 3-1 for TL with Thorzain beating HerO. Unfortunately Mana drew zerg.

Thorzain hero will probably the best match

in many ways this is going to be a very close match
and thats why i personally like teamleague!
ace-match please
|
I'm pretty sure Hero is the favourite vs Thorzain, especially on Antiga which is his best PvT map.
He hasn't been playing his best lately, but then again neither has Thorzain. But Hero's problems have constantly been nerves, and this being an online match should mitigate these somewhat as there is no live setting, audience etc.
And Ret really should not screw up a ZvT on Bel'Shir against a part-time Terran.
So it comes down to whether Sheth or Zenio can take their games for Liquid.

I think mouz will win this. But it will be close.
|
Honestly it can go 3-0 either way. But i am hoping for mouz!!!
|

biGs < Sheth MaNa > Zenio MorroW < Ret ThorZaIN > HerO
Can't wait for this!
|
Sheth > biGs Zenio > MaNa Ret > MorroW
|
I think it will be 3-2 for mouz o,o
biGs < Sheth Morrow > Ret MaNa < Zenio ThorZaiN > HerO MaNa > HerO
|
Could be a straight 3-0 by TL. MaNa has problems with good zergs (he is way to passive) Ret... well if his macro doesn't slip he can take Morrow Sheth Bigs is a no brainer. Especially after his games versus kas.
|
I wouldn't mind knowing the rule on people like Morrow who race pick.... in a format where you put them in blindly it almost seems to me that he should have to pick a race before hand. If he was random player I would think differently...
|
This should be fun. I feel like there is a lot on the line in terms of pride after mouz called out TL multiple times when the " 2011 TL awards " was posted.

I'm a huge Mouz fan, but they may lose this, Liquid is a great team and they got pretty damn lucky with the draw (Mana vZ is not good, Morrow vs Ret is also lucky, Morrow's worst vs Ret's best) so they shouldn't be dismissed easily. Sheth > biGs Zenio > Mana Ret > Morrow Hero < Thorzain So Mouz could just lose 3 - 0, hopefully one of the first three can make an upset, but this could be tricky.
|
omg I can't wait for this
|
Sheth Mana Ret ThorZain
And then Ret over Thorzain in the ace! (More of hoping than knowing)
If it doesn't get into ace though, it should be 3-0 Liquid imho!
