The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained. |

Is the KESPA Hero very good? MC's PvP ranges from brilliant to just good depending on the day. It doesn't bode well for MC that his teammate and (probably) training partner lost a PvP 0-3.
he was one of the very best KESPA players in WoL I think, i'd be heavily backing him to beat MC in PvP, 3-0 wouldn't surprise me. But then again when you count out MC he finds a way to stay relevant so it should be interesting to see how he goes.
gogo Chad Jones and ThorZaIN!!!
(And Mvp, Bomber and Taeja  )

Game of Ro32 will probably be Stephano vs Last
Whilst Stephano is the better player he's really struggled with ZvT in Hots so it'll be very even.
|
Is it just me or is the schedule wrong in the OP? It says @ 4:30PM CDT the Ro8 matches will start, but by then the Ro32 has just finished, it should be Ro16 instead of Ro8 I think. Reason I found this is I HAVE TO watch Ret vs Flash.... (i.e the Ro8 match #5 (Ret vs Flash) should be Ro16 match #5.
gg gl hf everyone today!

Really? I'm most excited about Creator vs Polt.

I might have to watch both streams today

I was totally wrong with my predictions for day 1 haha. Only got Sen and parting right. So today, my predictions
Mvp 3-1 Feast
MC 3-2 herO
TaeJa 3-2 SaSe
Life 3-1 Minigun
Stephano 3-1 Last
Bomber 3-1 Goswser
Creator 1-3 Polt
KiLLeR 1-3 ThorZaIN

Really excited for Jjakji vs Rain! Hope and think Jjakji will take it, but obviously could go either way.
Leenock vs Innovation could've been a WoL GSL finals, hopefully we get some great games there as well!
|
So, this is a bit embarassing but... Who is Jjakji anyway? Seems like everyone loves him/knows him but me lol. I know every other player but this kid is unknown to me, he's obviously not just a random korean to the fans. The games vs MKP yesterday were impressive!

It will be a very interesting tournament day ^^
@Boundz(DarKo) Jjakji is a GSL champion and a great terran player, very pleasing to watch. However when he was on his prime so were other more popular players, and he kinda got left in the shadows.

He won Code S in late 2011 against Leenock.
Here is the link to his run in that season: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2011_Global_StarCraft_II_League_November/Code_S

He won a GSL during the Gom TvT era. He was known for cheese play like proxy marauders. He fell into Code B once the timings were figured out and as patches made Terran less absurdly imba.

Jjakji is a gsl champ, but one of the lesser acclaimed ones as he didn't really do much of anything after his win aside from a few low code S showings, winning some online IPL tournament, and being one of the few terrans to perform well post-queen patch in GSTL.
He is loved mainly because of his epic series against Leenock that is widely regarded as probably the first good GSL final, and game 1 is largely considered one of the very best TvZ games in WoL history. He was also a massive underdog in that final and happens to be on probably the weakest ESF team so it's nice when he has a good showing.
