So I really expect a 3-2 for the international lineup. Life and Seed will take the points for korea, the rest goes to the world.



How is Life in any kind of slump? He lost vs Soulkey in GSL and vs GuMiho in GSTL, otherwise he has won everything left and right. I'd say he's in the best form he will ever be.

I kinda agree with your prediction, allthough both MC and Squirtle could win their matches. Would be nice to have match 5 matter!


After incredible runs in the GSLand MLG, Life showed weaknesses lately. He is by far not in a slump, but also back to normal terms, where he can be defeated as any other player, one should say.
Seed has been rising high and fallen deep lately, slump is a good word to describe it.
MC, well he is losing to kinda everybody lately. For a player that had championship calibre in any competition, you should call that a slump.
Squirtle, well the same story as for MC, he has been losing to a lot of people lately.
DRG, no he is not in a slump, but he is neither at his best, where he is only stoppable by very few people.
So we have 3/5 seriously slumping while the other two have a normal - kinda underperforming (this goes for DRG) level. That was what I meant.
And if you look how the matches turn out, I can totally see Scarlett beating DRG (because she has shown incredible ZvZ), Nerchio beating Squirtle and Stephano beating MC. The thing with Stephano is, he does not work like other players. When you think he might be in a slump, he might immediately start crushing face all over the place, while others will start to recover step by step.
My prediction:
Seed > Lucifron
Life > Naniwa
DRG < Scarlett
Squirtle < Nerchio
MC < Stephano
Koreans 2 - 3 Internationals

Koreans 2 - 3 Internationals


The Koreans are slumping by top Koreans standards (IE. top 3 player in the world at one point). If they were in their top form, Each one of them would AK the world team.

As I posted above, if you use the same standard for the foreigners, they would be in a slump as well since they all have recent loses to other top foreigners and top and mid level Koreans.

Remember that HerO and Taeja were 'slumping' in GSL as well. And look what happened at Dreamhack.

This is only Round 1 matches. Round 2 is GSTL Format. Round 3 (if needed) is 1v1 Ace match.

LOL, if Seed beats Lucifron it will have nothing to do with balance.

I do wish Nerchio got Squirtle on a map that's not Antiga though - Squirtle can be mislead into making carriers in late game PvZ, and Nerchio would be pretty amused with that D:

Stephano is probably the only one that will win.

Are these BO1 or BO3?
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Foreigners got nice shot at this, although I would transfer Naniwa and Scarlett for Thorzain and MaNa
