So will the stream go live at 6 or is that when the first game starts?

I think that's supposed to be when the first match starts but who knows.

In that case the first game actually starts at 7.

By the way, I've not watched any SC2 since DH Summer 2017 acording to my post history, I've just been following the WCS results basically and the Serral madness, what can I expect in terms of actual strategies ? Any particular trends I should be aware of or nothing will particularly shock me this weekend (Has excluded) ?

No, but we have a relatively good idea who is casting in the studio.

Maru will likely proxy (pretty much) every game and even if it fails hard he'll be in a good spot.

Don't be shocked if Terrans build a lot of production buildings scattered around the map especially against Protoss

Thanks for your answers kind people. So basically every non-mirror matchup has turned into very agressive stuff ?

Group A: Maru, TY
Group B: Zest, sOs
Group C: Stats, Dark
Group D: Classic, Rogue

accepted!

I added a deadline, you have until the first map starts for anyone who wants to join with a different prediction.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Damn sos vs Serral is difficult. On the one hand Serral looks so good, on the other hand counting sos out in a tournament like this is foolish ..

Mostly the Terran match up, but proxy can a lot of the time transition into more macro games, a lot of them have way to transition fairly smoothly into macro.

That would be my prediction too.

TRV has too much faith in Neeb .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
