He literally have one impressive ZvZ game so far, and that's beating DRG when everyone was beating DRG. He certainly could but unless he actually does it he would be underdog in all 3 match.

Oops was thinking Effort, don't recall any impressive ZvZ from Soulkey

When did he beat DRG? I know Effort took him out in WCS and Roro took him out in code A after he threw away 2 games. Don't recall DRG encountering Soulkey though.

Did Life intentionally make an all Z group in order to cut the number of Zs in future rounds for the overall health of GSL and the game? He said in interviews earlier that he did not want to play ZvZ. Did GOM pressure him into doing this, or is he just being a baller? Did he pick Soulkey because he'll be EZ and then Leenock for an extention of MLG rivalry?

I think he's just doing it to be baller. I really hope Leenock vs Life turns into a rivalry for top zerg
Code A Season 3
Leenock 2-0 Life

MLG
Leenock 3-4 Life

GSTL Semifinals
FXO vs Startale (possibly the ace match between them)

Code S Ro16
same group

They seem to be really close in skill so it should be exciting!

Life didnt pick, he wasnt there and curious picked soulkey for him


He told Curious to pick Soulkey because he is only Code A level and that he would be fine with forming a 4 zerg group

Only group b doesn't look scary -.- why do the Koreans have so much ego...shouldn't they be aiming to make their group the easiest? Group B I see Yoda on top or Hyun...parting advance, life advance, creator advance
Parting and creator bias right here hehe

Group D = Group of Death? or... Group of Zerg. 5x ZvZ Bo3's. I hope terran players can appreciate this as what we had to sit through for a long time of GomTvT.

So instead of marines being microed you prefer marines not being microed?

Just an easy joke :p

Soulkey and Life saving Zergkind from nerfs, now D.Kim can point to numbers and say there aren't too many Z making it deep, haha.

My predicitions:
DRG + Curious: DRG has been on recovery lately and Curious has been silently strong for a year or so. Creator's PvZ didn't look very good lately and Ryung made it to Ro16 only with luck.
MKP + Hyun: MKP got the easiest group he could have wished for, and this might be Hyun's chance to get rid of his infamous GSL shakyness. Yoda is strong and might cause an offset (as IM fan I'm hoping for that), but I still think MKP is stronger than him. Hack one of the weaker Code S players.
Parting + Polt: Parting is my hope for Aiur, and he seems to be the only P who has enough Soul for PvZ right now, coupled with his traditionally strong PvT he should make it. Polt's been solid lately - but so is Sniper, I guess it's a toss up between the two. Bogus without chances imo, unless Major is right after all, but he didn't convince me yet.
Life + Leenock: lol, what a group. I think those two are the strongest ZvZers right now, but wouldn't surprise me to see Symbol live up to his crashed hype train. Soulkey sacrificed himself for the swarm I guess.

Rumors has it that ZvZ meta on Korean ladder might be transitioning into BL+Infestor turtle games right now. You might regret that statement when that meta shift makes it into the GSL booths.

At least it would be equally OP on each side, that's a big improvement on other MU
