The only Terran to Lose a match in the Playoffs so far was in a TvT

it's funny, but nothing's changed since all the recent tournaments won by zerg, and the WTL playoffs were dominated by zerg too

also Serral still has a chance here

4 Zerg got push into the same bracket has something to do with that, granted Cure, Clem and Byun won their TvZ match pretty convincingly.

Honestly if Maru beats Clem (which he probably will, I think Gamers8 was a fluke) Serral is still a pretty big favorite. His last few matches against Cure, Maru, and Byun have all looked grim for the Terran (and afaik there's no UB advantage in the grand finals.)

Hum, let's see how Clem will be juggling both MC's matches and HSC's at the same time. Because I don't think it was a masterclass in programming from Take, not sugarcoating it.

Well, not like Clem had to accept and play in HSC either.

Oh sure. Sounds like a bit greedy on his part too. If he can equally get through in both events, I don't think I'll eye a further bat. If he does flunk his matches, then I might question the wisdom of his decision.

Maru not beating Clem 3-0 would be a big disappointment, he has to destroy him after that mediocre gamers8 result
Cure should be the favorite vs ByuN but I don’t see any of the remaining terrans beating Serral. Clem should have the best shot since he did it previously and would play without ping, but I don’t see him beat Maru twice in a row

It's unfortunate that Protoss has to run into the best TvP player and then best ZvP player. Maxpax had a shot with Cure but it's entirely hopeless with Serral.
