My guess on how this is going to play out: Team Liquid > Mystery Gaming Team Liquid > PsiStorm Gaming Shopify Rebellion > Team Liquid Dragon KaiZi Gaming > Shopify Rebellion Basilisk > Dragon KaiZi Gaming Onsyde Gaming > Basilisk
|
If things break out right for them, Team Liquid could reach all the way to the Final, and then it will be up to Cure/Clem TvT vs Maru. Other than that, it would be a rematch of the previous season Final, and while I think Serral could just win it all for Basilisk, they better not sending him out first in the 2nd place - 3rd place match.

TL > MyG TL > PsiStorm TL > SR TL > DKZ Basilisk > TL Onsyde > Basilisk
I have no faith in Reynor's current form unless he's already started grinding for Katowice, and Solar/Maru are probably too good for Serral to sweep. TL vs DKZ is a coin flip, Clem is favored against every DKZ player but I can see any of them taking a game against him. Player order will probably decide a lot.

That Clem 0-2 against Ryung in the final week destroyed any fantasy I had that winning Atlanta magically made Clem a better WTL player as well.

Pretty much what I was thinking too. In the end 17-7 in the regular season doesn't exactly scream world-beating in the specific WTL context. For what I'm concerned that could even entertain the possibility that the team could bomb against MYG.
EDIT : I thought Bunny could draw with Cure but he let it slip. I think Liquid might at least fight SR.

who needs clem? Cure all the way for TL lol

Both Shin and Bunny also look below average today.

That final game...
"When your opponent does something fancy, just go f'ing kill them".

Allright, lets see if PsiStorm has something prepared for the Liquid. Cure was looking fantastic so far, it s going to be rough to stop him and the current DH Champion
|
Namshar played his butt off and was looking closer to beat Clem than MaxPax. Some of the game was good but overall I hope tomorrow is way better than today in term of competition.

Nice "team" league. One player wins it all :D Seriously, why not force to change players?

Because that is the slight-downside of Allkill. But then again, Allkill is better for the viewing experience, since there are no unnecessary matches, every map counts. And two players of Liquid did allkills today, so this is definetly a team-effort.

What you're asking for would also punish teams for performing well.

Cure and Clem both playing on their expected level today. I am getting worried about my prediction that Shopify Rebellion will be able to beat Team Liquid.

ACES WILD!
(love recycling all of our old Proleague headlines/titles from the BW era)

I don't see Shopify beating TL, the Cure+Clem combo is too strong

What is Byun even doing with that kind of a lead.

He may do it here vs ByuN though
