Probably ZeNEX in the upper half, would like to see RoX.KIS or Alternate/Type in the lower half.
|
Maybe dreamteam can actually breakthrough
|
Bring it on It's GoSu! :D
|
You put second qualifier in the body =P
|
You've given us ZeNEX again.. ah well, will need to beat them this time

yeah i think so. there is either some serious management problem or their players aren't paid much and this is more of a thing they do on the side for fun.
i too want to know who all killed for vVv

only player capable of it imo would be Sozheon or w/e the korean's name is on vVv, or RuFF got especially lucky on his cheeses.

I wonder why Harrier is played so often. He's a very gimmicky player that relies on catching his opponent off guard.

Hmm, why not? If they played their aces every time, I'm pretty sure they would be able to crush the competition with their three top players in most cases. Even if Harrier loses a game, ZeNEX should still feel pretty comfortable against any opponent.

Looks like aTn.Type has a serious chance to make it this time.

I guess you and the poster above are right. They don't have much untried talent besides RyoO and he's at Yonsei
My outlook on ZeNEX is that they are a weak team with a few strong players. They can certainly improve if they get new players on the field like Harrier.

Daisuki got the AK for vVv in the first round for those who were curious.

aTn and Type gaming are cooperating? hmm, must have missed the announcement of that. According to that, I predict ZeNEX - aTn.Type finals.

I think it is just for this tournament, because it is bo9 and aTn has only four players.

Anyone know when semis are?

Acer is through over aTn.Type.

It's really frustrating how they seem to keep sending sparta and harrier over the rest, it's not like they're the worst players in the world but if they sent pet/treme/life instead of them they would have probably qualified a long time ago.

I think they dont. I think they were just playing the players they intended to use if they qualified. It was more of a training league for them i get the feeling. So they can see who they may use for GSTL and KSL.

They are using some of their A team, TREME played vs us, and I assume some of them don't want to ruin sleep schedule so they can play in Code A and other tournaments, considering it begins 05:00am for them

If they didn't give a shit about it, they wouldn't have signed up in the first place, considering they have to play this thing in the night.
Congrats to Strelok, you're doing really well lately.

If the team really, really cared about it they would have used their top players for one match to secure a spot. But maybe some players weren't available and the entire team had other priorities. Nevertheless it's disappointing that ZeNEX may not even qualify while retaining the majority of their A-team.

They don't have a KSL match for at least another week. The only ZeNEX player in Code A is Line and he got a walkover over Boxer: he doesn't even have a series to play. Maybe some of the players are preparing for EWM, but just being in IPL TAC will guarantee more exposure and the possibility of making some money.

Absolute Legends signed up but haven't shown up to any matches in any of the three tournaments.

I think that Brain is a new player (his id on battle.net is NEXBrain) and XT I think it is TREME or ... it was their coach whose battle.net id is ZeNEXT or just NEXT. I wonder why they did not use Mentalist he is in a great form now and usually plays on american server and wins Playhem and Zotac.

Yes! FXO + FXO.CIS is in! :D

vVv will make it next time! Proud of all our playerS1
