ooof Sick match and I like both teams.
But gotta support and go with TSL on this one TSL zerg lineup is so sick and Polt can beat anyone on Prime.
Just gotta stop ByuN and MKP and Creator early on then TSL should take it there line up feels overall more solid and deep.

At this point, Prime really only can rely on MKP and Creator to carry the team, as the rest of the members really have not been pushing their weight around for the team. If MKP and Creator can gain momentum, TSL is in trouble, but if MKP is sniped by a Zerg, and Creator somehow loses, TSL can take it.

TSL 5-3 Prime

this will be an interesting watch!
i think TSL is favoured, prime is not nearly as strong as it was before, but let's see how we go

outcome depends on if TSL have something prepared for creator and to a lesser extent which MKP shows up tonight ... hoping for a prime win

TSL 5-3 Prime

Byun is still an absolute heavyweight.
Don't count him out just because he had a rather weak day in Code S (and still only lost to By.Rain who is owning everyone now).

Really excited to see Kevin at Dreamhack! I think he's at his best at live events, and he seems like such a nice guy. Dunno if I heard him cast with Apollo, but can't imagine it being anything less than fantastic!

I think its quite usual for prime to start with MKP and finish with Creator. Hopefully this will be a close match

tbh i think starting with maru is a good choice - fairly solid in all matchups (maybe a bit zerg-weak), prime is terran-heavy, and byun/mkp you don't want falling too early. gives maru a bit more experience too
use mkp as a protoss or terran sniper, hope he sweeps a bit (definitely able to take 2-4 wins on a good day)
bboong if someone is zerg-weak (e.g. zvt) bbong is bad against protoss, but prime is very strong against protoss anyway)
use byun as neccessary! similar role as mkp i guess, but very different style, so mixing up byun/mkp is good to keep oponents on their toes
close out with creator, who has like a 14-2 record in ace matches (has only ever lost to bomber)

I've never seen Kevin casting in an other event than an IPL one. But I'll never forget his shout out for the GSTL final.
