I think Sheth will take it. I feel that Sheth has beaten better Protosses. However, I think it's going to be very close.

How active is Socke lately? I feel like Sheth should take this with 4-2 at worst.

This is pretty cool and should be quite close, Socke is usually underrated by most and then he dominates in showmatches (or Shoutcraft tournaments :D).

I hope they alternate (haha) servers, though.

He just returned from a bootcamp at Takes place with hasuobs and a lot of other top german players. I heard they trained a lot of PvZ .

Yeh, should be a nice relief from all the roflstomps NASL has been getting here, out of all five Sunday Showdowns, only MorroW vs Leenock was kinda close sometimes and these two are pretty close in skill imho.

I would say Sheth has the advantage here, but Socke can definitely pull out a surprise.

i would say they are pretty much even but since socke seems very uncomfortable in PvZ i would say sheth is slightly favored

socke and hasu both said that they were kinda lost vs zerg (eventhough they said more like: i don't know what to do vs stephano's pvz... and something similar about ret) in the german eps cast and szenecast

GOGO socke anyways

well socke qualified for mlg winter arena and made top 16 and almost beat ganzi (lost to 1-1-1 and 1-1-1 with expo why dont protosses know how to win vs that yet??? and he even took 1 map) so i think he is doing fine
he also had a bootcamp with some of the german eps players at takes place while take was at sao paulo after iem

so i think he practiced quite well

I think Sheth may have the best foreign ZvP after Stephano. Nice games overall.

the way Khaldor pronounces it



There are mainly 2 different ways its pronunced right now. The problem imo is, that there isnt a sounding for the ending (sockE) in English, therefor most people pronunce it more like sockY or sockI (something like "wall-e" ).

I cant make up an English word that has the same sound as the German pronunciation.


This way: [ˈzɔkə] (audio).


There are a lot of nicks you probably cant pronunce correctly, because they are complelty made up or because you just dont have the right sounds in your own language.

Some "popluar" examples:

Idra: is it I-dra, like in I-Pad or is the I more spoken like the i in intelligence
White-Ra: spoken as one word or do you stress out the Ra?
DongRaeGu: Its korean, I dont speak korean, I dont think I can pronunce it "correct"
Thorzain: Is it ment to be pronunced "English"?


Does it matter how we pronunce the names of the guys we cheer for? I totally dont think so, as long if you dont cheer for Mama instead of Mana


BTT: Didnt this game take place already? At least @TeamLiquidPro already spoilt the result

Nice series, I really like the fact that NASL pays out 100 dollars to the loser. Makes life for those players a little bit easier.
