hmm I smell a Serral vs Clem rematch in UB quarterfinals, assuming Solar can't stop Clem

Bad choice by Classic, why trying to 1-base Stalker bust and Phoenix wars against the guy who is building his career at defending/playing those builds.

Classic did look outclassed by a mile.

Solar did really well. Dunno why Clem in game 1 did not think: "what is the only way I can still lose this?"

Dear Solar!
Please accept my apology for not believing in you.
Although I like your next opponent, he is doable.
Good luck for the rest of the tournament!

Going for a Stalker bust on a map without a natural ramp wasn't the worst decision. If it was going to work somewhere then that's where it was going to work.

The Phoenix game looked really bad for Classic though. He was a step behind from the very beginning, even though they were doing mirrored builds. I don't know how MaxPax managed to forge such a massive advantage, but he did!

It's to make sure a Protoss finds its way into the later stages

Maru 3:0 Cure
Serral 3:2 Solar
Dark 3:2 Reynor
MaxPax 3:1 herO

The ZvZs are very coinflippy and could go either way IMO

One common point between the two games : Classic lost either stalkers/phoenixes for free early, then it snowballs out of control to the point he was unable to recover. His micro also looked worse when MaxPax was able to preserve units even AT very low HP.
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

Rough week for Clem, in the last 7 days he's lost matches to Astrea, Reynor, Dark, Oliveira, Gumiho, Solar, Maru, and Maxpax. Wonder if he'll bounce back for IEM. Not that losses to any of those players are particularly bad but all the same time is surprising after Atlanta and the WTL playoffs.

It seems like Clem peaked too soon for IEM. We have the same thing happens in previous years iirc. Trap and Maru won Last Chance in convincing fashion but didnt show up big enough for IEM. Zest won Super Tournament beating Maru and Dark a couple years ago and struggle in the group stage in IEM.

Clem just seemed a bit burned out, no wonder as he played in like every possible tournament and showmatch in the past few months, often from early in the morning till very late at night. Thats how he reached this incredible form and with a little rest he will be in top shape at IEM for sure.
