Alright, am I just compleatly out of the pvt meta, or are the ByuN-Zoun composition just compleatly out of wack?
|
Clem doesn't look in form
|
Reynor makes me want to watch the tournament even if/when all the Protosses get knocked out
|
So Clem is not advancing right? Byun may take the third place unless he lose to Zoun.

Maru not gonna go 10-0 because unlike Serral, he doesn't get to rob an empty house

Clem’s absolute best period he was doing about the same as, if not slightly worse than Serral and Reynor’s regular/‘slump’ level.
He’s absolutely excellent but he didn’t translate some excellent TvZ clinics in WCS to the international tournaments, or round out all his matchups, especially TvT to the same degree.
I wouldn’t have eaten my shoe if Clem made it out in top 2 spots, but assuming Reynor brought his A game to Katowice I think Clem fighting for that third place is about his par if he can play his best.

Just getting back - how good has maru looked?
|
Byun just got dropped by Zoun, now its likely becoming a 3-way fight for the 3rd place.
|
I am rooting for Zoun for protoss representation.

He lost once against Byun but doing better very GOAT-like thats for sure. He's not gonna get a 10-0 because of how the biased organizers like to stack groups to favor certain players to make sure they 100% advance

There's hope yet for 2 Protoss in the Ro12. More specifically a PvP in the Ro12.

No mate, Clem during his best period(right before April to May 2021) was having Serralesque win ratios but somehow like Cure's online domination in early 2020, no major tournaments were being held at the time.

To be fair I've mostly seen Clem play TvZ and TvP in general so you're probably right about the TvT. His TvZ always looked excellent from my PoV though but Reynor definitely looks in form for ZvT.
