MC vs Ret coming up next

Will Ret continue his domination throughout group B?

Will MC pick up a much needed win after going 1-2?

How different will this ZvP be, compared to the Muta vs Phoenix play from earlier and the Broodlord / every other unit play from the past recent games.


Ret will use swarmhosts of 3 bases and show the world how to diminate the midgame as zerg.

and lose to skytoss

What is happening with Ret? He is 3-0 now, that's unexpected!
Slivko kinda gave that game away...

Ret put quite some time into HotS.
In the very least he should do well at the start of it.


He had some nice results in WoL aswell, and not only at the start. + Ret had the same time to prepare for HotS as the other foreigners and some koreans. Or did he get a extra early copy ?

Just for example in the groups played today, Ret switched to HotS almost at the release of the beta because he was falling off in WoL and wanted to get a head start, also the new game might have motivated him again.

Kas and LucifroN were successful and motivated until the end, Kas practiced solely WoL for ages because he wanted to do well at this IEM which most people thought would be WoL, because who would hold a tournament in an unreleased game while the beta is down.

LucifroN had a lot of WoL tournaments left to play and trained WoL hard for IEM and others, they both just started HotS two weeks ago.

Basically they got punished hard because they wanted to well at IEM while others were rewarded because they didn't committ to one event, just like Naniwa with IPL being cancelled now.

Except the aggressive swarm host usage prevents protoss from getting to their invincible skytoss composition. zzz balance whine

The server is hosted at the event, so that's about as local as bnet 2.0 is going to get.

In Group A every foreigner can still be #3 right? If Nerchio HasuObs and LucifroN win they are all 2-3. Then its down to mapscores right? :D

Luci can't get a high enough score anymore.


If LucifroN beats PartinG he'll be 2-3

If slivko beats Nerchio they'll both be 2-3

if hasuobs beats yonghwa he will also be 2-3

But by map score he can't win. Even if he wins 2-0 and slivko wins 2-1 and hasuobs loses lucifron is tied with nerchio on map score and nerchio won head to head and if slivko wins 2-0 he is tied with lucifron on map score and slivko won head to head.
