Two of those guys are zergs, Huk is no longer really relevant. But a win against Hero is quite impressive. Now Titan is a really good protoss, and Scarlett definitely need to meet more accomplished protosses in more series to be placed on the level of Nerchio, and I don't even think of the one of Stephano. | ||

At WCS NA she defeated Theognis, Mystik, Huk, Insur and Vibe twice. Titans route on the way to winning WCS russia was Creed, Livezerg, sLivko twice and Happy twice, which seems to be harder. Her RSL-performance was impressive and I am not denying that she has a reasonable (around 50%) chance to win that match, but erveryone who says, she will win easily against a guy with a nearly 70%-Winrate against Nerchio should reconsider that. | ||

Huk went 2-0 vs Ret last night so clearly he's not out yet, and clearly not awful against Zerg, and she made Hero look easy in game 3, like GM vs Diamond easy. I wouldn't say she is at Stephanos level at all, mostly cause he's the only one that knows how to find it, but Nerchio isn't a stretch to me, they are close in skill but she is VERY confident vs Protoss. | ||

In fact, he might have the strongest foreign PvZ (Considering it is both, MaNas and Nani worst MU. I can definitly see him beating her, it is an open match IMHO. Foreigner ELO means literally nothing. It is 100% worthless in ever single way. I don't see any way that Acer loses this match honestly. | ||

Bly is decent, but LiveZerg is also a ZvZ specialist, RoX.KIS has a good shot to win the first match. Abver is up against DarkHydra, a player who just switched to Zerg and was never really above average to begin with, so he should be quite confident. RoX.KIS has a really good chance to win the second match. Fraer is quite good in PvZ and his overall record against Nerchio in the last six months is 11-2. Tell me he doesn't have a chance to win here, too. Titan is quite possibly the strongest EU Protoss vs Zerg. Scarlett is good and even though we can't really judge her level just yet from the very few games we've seen her play, she is probably favoured, but it's in no way certain that she'll win. You're way exaggerating Acer's chances. I mean, I picked them to win, but it could be very, very close. | ||

Well its not like Scarlett is bad but so far we only watched her at wcs canada and ipl to have sucess. Titan was third at wcg and ia constantly in the top of eu scene, imho , best P there with sase, naniwa and mana. So i think he is favoredin this clash, since i dont think Scarlett can fight top eu players actually. But its gonna be soon and we will see. | ||

Wait DarkHydra switched to zerg, I guess acer demanded he stop playing terran or be removed from the team. | ||

Online, she also three-killed TSL in the IPL TAC and beat sLivko and HerO in Ritmix RSL. She certainly can compete, we just need to see more games to see how she matches up against all the other players. | ||

Edit: I should read threads. With that, this could go to the ace match if Nercio and Bly arn't careful. Of course, Scarlett would destroy any of these guys in an ace match so I don't think Acer fans such as myself don't need to worry too much, and Bly is pretty damn good so shouldn't lose to Livezerg anyway (though Livezerg isn't bad and neither is Fraer, despite not doing so hot in WCS Ukraine). | ||

Honestly I don't really know (compared to my knowledge of the KR scene that is, I still know more than most) about nor do I really care about EU teams like these 2, but I think I understand this league and how this should go down. Even if it manages to go to an ace I don't see who will take down Scarlett/Nerchio. If 1 of them does manage to lose their match then the other is likely in better shape that day and should be able to handle it easily. This on top of the fact that Scarlett already posted in this thread saying that people should watch makes me quite confident in my prediction. | ||

Nobody said that she cant, I just responded on his attitude like Scarlett is way better then TitaN, even tho Russian bro is in much better shape when it comes to tournaments. | ||
