5-4 either way! hopefully for TSL! :D
Squirtle vs Symbol is such a tight match. But if Polt beat Squirtle, TSL zergs got this!

Going with my biased opinion of StarTale with this one, just hoping to see some good matches.

TSL got stronger z line up, ST better T and P line up. I like both teams but gotta give the edge to Startale. 5-4! + Show Spoiler +And I thought July retired from sc2, dunno why.. must have heard it somewhere!

StarTale will use Hack to snipe Polt, and KingKong against Zergs imo. Seems like KK is their go-to guy for ZvZ.

T-T....
KK is going to be a lesser known player that I didn't want

King Kong is pretty good and in theory since he could devote more time to these games he might be a better choice for StarTale than some other players who are busy preparing for other events and such. Seeing a few lesser known players is one of the best parts of team leagues. If you want to watch Symbol, Squirtle, or PartinG, then go tune into Code S. One of my favorite things to have happen is new players who have not proven themselves in Starleagues come out and win big in the team leagues. Remember when MMA or DongRaeGu first came out in the early seasons of GSTL and won against Mvp, NesTea, and MC. That was awesome.
The thing that we don't want to see if have StarTale play 4 or 5 players like King Kong and not really put in a serious effort. That being said, I think that Korean teams--at least when matched up against other Korean teams--are starting to take Team Leagues more seriously.

Symbol doesnt always perform as well online as he does in the GSL and GSTL. I think he is beatable if he comes out. Squirtle went 2-2 against him so best bet it will have to be squirtle to take him down

Meh..... I don't think you did this right.
Sound is a player who did well in HomeStory. And he's well known
AcE is a Code S player (fell to Code A, but is still considered Code S)
RevivaL has been in the GSTL so he's a well known player.
So has RagnaroK.
You did it wrong

Like i said, if Polt beat Squirtle, Symbol can handle other players.
