On the December 20th & 21st I'll be hosting the Caseking X-Mas cup, powered by AKRacing. The Invitational will have a prizepool of 2500 EURO and feature 16 international top players.

I'm super happy to be able to run the tournament and wanted to thank the tournament sponsors Caseking, AKRacing, Phanteks, Zowie and King Mod Systems for the supporting it! We decided to distribute the prize money amongst the Top 8 of the tournament to cater towards the players and hope the tournament will be a great start into the christmas holidays for everybody!

Glad that Jaedong gets an extra 1000 Euros for christmas, but it's weird that he plays in this but not SSL.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

i don't know man, MMA might have something to say about that.

also, Jaedong vs Mana should be fun. And we'll get to see if Scarlett fixes her ZvT in time to take on Bunny.

Looks like a grand total of one player with the ability to consistently beat Life (until he learns how to properly play against mech), gonna be fun

Actually, a ForGG vs Life finals looks fairly likely. ForGG has to beat a foreigner, probably YoDa (think TvT), and a weak protoss or Jaedong. Life has almost no zergs on his side of the bracket.

Life's due for a crash any day now. He's been too good, he has to disappoint at some point here. First 2-1 Life

It's how it works for players I like! Maybe I should just start cheering for Life and he'll start doing poorly...

Even if he did have Zergs on his side of the bracket, I can only think of two or three that could foreseeably threaten him. First and MMA/Parting should be a cakewalk if he plays like he has recently, so going out before the semis seems unlikely.
