Lets get some stats going for MarineKing

MarineKing 9-4 MMA
MarineKing 4-3 Bomber
MarineKing 5-3 Polt
MarineKing 4-2 aLive

This is taken from TLPD, I didn't check the dates, but keep in mind MKP have been around since the very start, not all the other ones have though, but if we look at stats, MKP have the lead on all of them, and this is today where he have improved his gameplay alot, I believe he only lost 1 game to GanZi who is a beast in TvT, and 2 to Polt, in 2012.

Some more stats for the other players we have..

MarineKing 3-5 NesTea
MarineKing 7-1 Squirtle
MarineKing 4-3 Stephano

Predictions:

Nestea fucks everyone up.

Not a game dropped from here on out :D


Easter miracle, the professor is ressurected ! Not that I ever thought he was dead to begin with, slumping but not dead.

Despite the awesome lineup I sorta miss the format from last time becuase so many good players died in unfavourable groups. I know it's a testament to the players who escaped group stage but.. idk more players = more fun and variety in playstyles on display.

So, after 10 hours of working I've filled the fridge with coca cola and beer... It's gonna be an all-nighter, Stephano fighting!

I love Nestea -- he's one of my favorite players -- but I can't see him surviving this. He did really well in his brackets against the caliber of opponent he can usually beat, and even then it was a bit shaky. I think any of the remaining players could potentially give him some serious headaches.

Having said that -- gogo prof tea


As if Alive, PartinG and Ganzi are worse players..
Squirtle is not better then PartinG.
And then u have Bomber who is worste then Alive and Ganzi.
Maybe in the winners bracket final it might become a bit harder vs MKP or MMA but still very possible.

Where can I find the schedule of tonight? I want to see the order of the games
And I really hope they will stream most of the games.

So after the general disaster of the GSTL finals, and my favourite team falling just short in the SPL finals, I kinda wish something would go right in the IPL finals to make up for it :/

Stephano loses every single game he played vs squirtle.

When was the last time he played vs squirtle?

When was the last time he played a meaningful game vs squirtle?

The only time I remember stephano vs squirtle was when stephano was in Korea. Yes stephano mostly lost, but he has improved a ton since then and most of squirtle's win came of timing windows that do no longer exist in stephano's play. These days he is much better at calmly defending air harass. He is better at anticipating and dealing with +1 zealot timings. He manages to make his play a bit more greedy in places where he could get away with it, for instance in Korea when doing his 3 base 60 drones roach max push he used to get first 2 gas at 36-38 supply, but these days he usually gets it at the intentional supply block at 44. Similarly he used to get lair at 52-56 quite often, but these days he usually waits till 60 drones, 4 queens (70 supply if not prompted to build units other than 4-6 lings). All this makes him much safer against just the type of stuff squirtle used to do to win against him. Squirtle is still a fearsome opponent, but there is such a divide in the state of these players since they last played and now that you can hardly use that as evidence either way.

I'm still waiting for your excuses about how on earth did Stephano manage to beat "the PvZ monster who's better than him" and "Curious who's definitely better than him".

What was that you said? "people will stop overhyping Stephano" since he'll lose to JYP and Curious?

Looks like that came back to hit you in the face..

Can you check it from me and tell me?
From what I see is that it's not updated, you don't have to be a bitch and just answer.
I asked because I couldn't find an updated schedule and an answer like that does not help at all.

I think he wants to know which matches are on which stream and in what order. Right now the front page doesn't have any info on that, only which times you will see Lower Bracket Round 1 etc.

I agree. His decision making is always saving him in my opinion, but he wont survive the stronger tvz terrans in this.

Yeah that hit me in the face so hard, i'm so crushed because my predictions were wrong.

Dragonborn and you are fucking scary lol, you guys really need a life besides defending Stephano's honor in LR threads.
