I reckon Bling will finish 2nd/3rd, in the previous group stages his build order mind games were insane just needs a bit of luck on his side.

I'm curious if San will try to end second in this group, because that would be SO INCREDIBLY MUCH better for him than first.

Actually I want maths done about it. If San wins the group, he has 66% chance to play his bad match-up and 33% chance to play his okay match-up. If he finishes second, he has 66% to play the match-up he is the best in the world at, and 33% chance to play his okay match-up. Difference between losing in Ro8 and hitting the Ro4 is 2500 (7500 vs 5000). Difference between Ro16 and Ro8 is 2000 (5000 vs 3000). It's hard to quantify the risk that you take by losing a series, because you are obviously in more risk to lose the group. I wonder how much impact it has whether Nerchio beats MC or not, because you take a greater risk if you're playing the last match vs MC than you do vs Nerchio (based on San's record, not MC & Nerchio's skill).

Can we quantify whether San is making a mistake by attempting to win the group?

Basically he would be betting 2000 to win a total of 4500, so he needs things to work out ~44% of the time for the gamble to be profitable. I have a hard time thinking that's not the case.

Actually I want maths done about it. If San wins the group, he has 66% chance to play his bad match-up and 33% chance to play his okay match-up. If he finishes second, he has 66% to play the match-up he is the best in the world at, and 33% chance to play his okay match-up. Difference between losing in Ro8 and hitting the Ro4 is 2500 (7500 vs 5000). Difference between Ro16 and Ro8 is 2000 (5000 vs 3000). It's hard to quantify the risk that you take by losing a series, because you are obviously in more risk to lose the group. I wonder how much impact it has whether Nerchio beats MC or not, because you take a greater risk if you're playing the last match vs MC than you do vs Nerchio (based on San's record, not MC & Nerchio's skill).

Can we quantify whether San is making a mistake by attempting to win the group?

Basically he would be betting 2000 to win a total of 4500, so he needs things to work out ~44% of the time for the gamble to be profitable. I have a hard time thinking that's not the case.


Hmm, I like questions like this, but I have a feeling he's just going to play to win and worry about the Ro8 later.

Hmmm not a huge Nerchio fan to be honest but for the swarm! :D San/Nerchio the most likely result aside from the all-Korean victory.Then again Bling could surprise us all again! Not likely though, predicting a 4th place for him.
