Neeb vs Zest is hard to predict because Koreans are struggling so much in PvP atm that I think being in KR doesn't get you good PvP practice. However, Zest has hit the highest peak of skill among Korean protosses so if there is one hope for a Korean protoss to be able to come up to a solution for Neeb / foreign P insane PvP, it's Zest.
So I expect Zest to be pissed off enough to recover his skills and finish #1.
Zest's PvP in LotV is pretty bad. He has a 40% winrate in it since June.

His form overall has been bad since June. The important thing is whether or not he is back to his peak (because if he's as good as he was for the first season then GG)

Life in 2014 had really bad form right before Blizzcon as well, he only got to Blizzcon because of his early year results much like Zest right now.

I'm proud of the Polish boys today. That's all I have to say. Showtime did a nice job too.

Assuming the expected winners win. ro8 will probably be
Dark vs Neeb
Stats vs Zest
Byun vs Nerchio
TY vs Showtime
assuming they do a A/B and C/D split for the ro8. Oh jeez KT teamkill incoming

I feel like the winners of the losers match have some kind of unfair advantage over the losers of the winner match because they can rest one day and observe the winners match knowing they'll face the loser.

There's no other way to do it. They're pro gamers they should be used to this kind of thing

If KT is going to win Blizzcon, it better fucking be Stats who does it

Thats not different. In fact thats worse because the problem was players not getting as much rest between games

If Stats can beat Dark tomorrow we may have a 3/4 KT semifinal

They also don't have 2 opportunities to advance, which kind of makes up for it.

Depends what you like watching? You like watching Koreans bop foreigners? Wanna see Foreigners bop Koreans? Both were going on.
Best game was probably TY vs Nerchio game 3, TY really showing liberator ghost to it's extreme.

"objectively good games" is what he is searching for. Only TY vs Nerchio can deliver that from what i have seen (didn't watch violet vs Dear or any ZvZ)
