Rofl, you can't try to brag about predictions when you got them all wrong, then fall back on that sort of passive aggressive shit. | ||

It's not passive aggressive shit, it's an actual question. Besides, the prediction was for the end of the season and it's coming together somewhat. For clarification, I'm interested in knowing what you thought about MVP's chances before the season | ||

IM has been stepping up their game also. I stand entirely corrected. Hydra played brilliantly and Bbyong's mech was very well executed. Well played from CJ! Now just send out Sora next time! :D | ||

Well I didn't write a blog about it (mainly because I have no clue how to make my own blog), but the order in which I thought it would be is: 1.) mvp - a combination of blind fanboyism, and that drg is the teamleague monster of sc2. With his victory over innovation I saw the potential for a return to form drg, which frankly is beginning to happen. Coupled with that, is keen super and dream. 2.) jin air - If I'm being more honest with reality, this is the team that I think has the highest concentration of skill out of any team, as well as the most bullshit protoss player on the planet. Both of which are conductive to winning a team league. 3.) Kt - this is interchangeable with 4), which is skt. In kt I see years of coaching staff honed to absolute perfection. Flash may not be the stompiest player of sc2 yet, but he displays moments of that, usually in team leagues. In last season the team scored highest of those that remain, and the combination of ty stats flash and myunsik is very powerful, and hence my ranking puts them there. 4.) SKT - this is interchangeable with 3) which is kt. Like kt, this is a team which has absolutely perfected coaching over the years, and it shows. They may not have won last season, but they did come second out of the teams that remain, and in that process snapped up the arguably best zerg on the planet. They also have a list of protoss that are terrifying in the current world of sc2 - rain and parting, both with opposing styles, and both with tournament results to back it up. 5.) CJ entus - With the coach which is arguably the best in the world, this team should be higher up on the list. Yet when I look at the players on it, I can't help but feel somewhat underwhelmed. Effort and hydra should have made a splash by now, herO is picking up steam rapidly though, and maybe by the end they will be higher. 6) IM - This team didn't have much going for it before st joined, and now that it has, it still doesn't have a huge amount outside of a trophy cabinet. There two most recognisable players Nestea and MVP are well past there prime, yonghwa and squirtle don't create the same incredible performances, a lot of there players with so much potential aren't even on the team anymore, and in the end they will rely on curious, hero and life to carry them through. I don't think it will be enough 7) Samsung - A team of mostly zergs now, in an age of protoss. Roro can only do so much, their top dogs jangbi and stork are either playing a different game or not adapting, and realities playstyle is filthy. 8) Prime - Opterown and lorning must hate me, oh well. This is a team which probably has produced more skill then any other, and yet they have the remarkable ability to lose it all. If they kept maru, polt, ryung, and byun on there team they would be rated far higher. Yet they don't. They are also (out side of creator) a very terran heavy team, which is awkward in the age of blink stalker all ins. Those are my predictions, not much has changed since this season started, except IM 8th and samsung/prime were one higher, and it's not at all accurate to reality | ||

That game vs soulkey was pretty weird tbh. | ||

Mean while samsung was 3-0 by MVP and Prime, well not exactly but close. Losing to a team with half the roster being amateur players is an achievement in itself. | ||
