Then again those 3 beat Maru, Trap and Rogue.


Yeah, if they can pull that off again in the semis, there's a real chance at a shocking upset for this tournament.

I agree Rogue has it relatively easy (comparatively) to the semis. I like his chances a lot actually.

Definitely predicting Rogue for a semifinal spot here but the rest feels much more open.

that's a very good point. I'll be insanely impressed if Trap does it.

But just like before the tournament I don't see a way around getting the 54th Zerg world champion in a row.

It was clear that Zerg will win the IEM, they don't break the streak now. The question only was who will be the zerg. Like c'mon, don't pretend otherwise.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

weak is a very harsh word, let's say the semifinalist coming from this part of the bracket will be unexpected while we'll lose at least one of Maru / Serral, two of Trap / Reynor / Dark etc


As a fan of both underdogs and Protoss, I'm all in on top half bracket :D.

I also love that tournament organizers don't even bother with attempting the Maru-Serral dreamfinal anymore, might as well get it while they can.

Ill put money on either Rogue or Reynor to win, Reynor looks exceptional atm and Rogue has the ideal bracket. Serral and Dark have a chance too and fuck me thats all Zergs, lol.

Personally I thought Reynor vs Maru was gonna be very close from the start. Zoun beating Maru though was unexpected and very impressive to me.

Seems like a good bracket for Rogue, but it's conceivable that either of the Terrans could take him out and go to the semis.

Actually feels like a slightly harder bracket for Reynor, as his TvZ has looked unstoppable, while ZvZ is a bit more volatile by nature and by his own admission PvZ is his hardest matchup. If Trap can take out Dark he has about as good a shot as anyone against Reynor imo.

Obviously everyone will be looking at the Maru-Serral bracket.

that's a very good point. I'll be insanely impressed if Trap does it.

I’m invoking WombaT’s LawTM for this Katowice, as with those that fell before it.

I can see Trap or Zoun kicking one of the 4 Zergs of the Apocalypse to the kerb, but not two. Especially if it’s back to back PvZs
