Some pretty crazy upsets in that bracket...

Clem 2-0 Innovation
Skillous 2-0 Rogue
Risky 2-1 Stats

All in all a sick lineup that the NA elite now has to contend with in the final qualifier. Good for them that they (except Scarlett and Special, I guess) will have server advantage.

Pretty sure Special and Scarlett are still in Mexico/Canada?

I predict Ty to beat Reynor in his bracket Final and Trap to beat Maru in theirs.
Then Maru beats reynor in the lower bracket.
Maru, TY, Trap advance

Server advantage didn t help them last year either. And you forgot that 2020 is the year of Clem, wouldn t call it that insane of an upset And Skillous practises quite a bit on Korean server, as he gets higher ping on EU than on KR. So maybe he prepared some snipe builds from meeting Rogue on ladder there
Risky does realy suprise me tough..

TY's TvZ is kinda weak, wouldn't be surprised if he lost to soO tbh.

Also speaking of upsets Polt beat Elazer.

That's not an upset, unless you're assuming TvZ favors Zerg right now, then maybe I can see that it is.

Polt has been getting back into form for a good while now.

It was literally his 5th tournament match since coming back from the military. He was gone from the scene for almost 3 years and his performance on ladder doesn't put him in a position where beating Elazer was anything but an upset either. Unless you have a really low opinion of Elazer.

Polt beating Elazer was a huge upset, but given they played on NA server I am more surprised by Skillous beating Rogue.

The pairings for the second stage of the qualifiers seem pretty good for korean players.

Rogue played surprisingly poorly that series (against a Skillous that arguably also didn't play up to his usual level). Some of his decision like trying to cancel a third with a mass ing counterattack after getting surprised by DTs, and not bringing an overseer along were quite bad.

Really makes you wonder how Trap manages to never win a series against his teammate nowadays.

Did Serral choose to skip this and wait for the EU qualifiers? Kind of a ballsy decision if so. Or did the organizers pull some sort of BS that let them invite him over the player who won the last Katowice?
