It's going to come down to Ragnarok's shaky TvZ to play kingmaker in this group. If he wins outright he advances and Cure is out. If he loses to Cure and beats TIME then I think TIME will be out. Neeb can also ruin TIME's run and save Cure if he beats TIME head to head, but Neeb is out now I don't see anyway he survives. Noone is out yet, and cure also wouldn't be 100% out if he loses (though he has to win at least a map). There are theoretical ways yet for a lot of drama.
Neeb needs to beat Dark and TIME 2-0 and he needs both of them to lose all of their remaining matches 0-2 for him to have a chance and he needs Ragnarok to 2-0 Cure.
He basically needs Ragnarok to beast the rest of the way, and he needs Clem to beat Dark.
He's not at 0% but he's basically dead.

Not even that is 100% correct  But yeah ofc the likelihood of neeb advancing is very slim

Really feel like Neeb should have just given up that base after all the scvs he had killed

Wouldn't mind if they just sat around doing the laptop casts for longer during delays. Didn't they do that more in previous events?

That was such a bad atack from Neeb, he only needed 1 stalker to focus the SCV building the bunker to win right there, zzz

Terran can take forever to die, but I can't see how Cure comes back in this game.

I'm a bit concerned about RagnaroK's turtle-busting ability. Cure has a way back into this?

If Cure plays as well as he did against Dark, he has a chance.

I still think he's just taking forever to die, but TvZ isn't my matchup.

Nah. Cure wasn't ready for the Broods. This is what happens when Broods surprise someone that has no Vikings ready for them. In the game vs Dark, by the time the Broods came out Cure was already ready for them because Dark went Ultralisks first.
|
lol Neeb just took down Olivera. Who head to number 1 position?
|
Neeb over time. Big win for Clem there.
|
Clem's fate is in his hands now. If he beats Dark he's almost sure to qualify.
|
Hydras are so fast now lmao. Theyre zooming off creep

I am really enjoying group A. It was already the most competitive group in the tournament on first glance and with Cure here it's even more so.

They've evolved so much from how pathetic they were in Wings of Liberty.

That just tilted me. Reynor just broke the meta with that bullshit. It never occured to me that Queens only take up 1/4 of a Drop Overlord, that COMPLETELY changes the timing that you can queen walk, and Overlords can drop creep which eliminates the nerf to transfuse that we had a few patches ago.
He just brought evolved Queen walk back to the meta.
dropperlord queens shutting down mech is nothing new. it's been like this since the start of LotV. there is no safe and secure mech opening.
battlecruisers seemed like a semi-solid opening for a brief spell, while zergs were still figuring out how to deal with it. now it gets deflected and crushed every time by a corruptor timing with queens and roaches. mech can't defend these timings because the sheer amount of zerg units and sustain from queens is insurmountable. maybe if battlecruisers had a cooldown that increased their DPS by 100% for 20 seconds 
if you want to play mech and be safe against the queen drop timing, you have to pre-emptively build marine / tank instead of hellions. however, if Z just macros or does anything else, you lose because you built marine tank instead of hellions lol. it's absolutely stupid, but there it is. playing mech vZ is just gambling. the best way to play mech is to play bio 99% of your games and not have a reputation for playing mech like GuMiho does.
this is why the best mech player is, in fact, Byun or Clem
