Huk is still easily the weakest player in Code S on paper and PvZ is his worst matchup while Sniper has good ZvP | ||

So they'll likely come out on top (thought they're quite good anyway)... | ||

Mvp could go 0-4 and MKP could go 4-0 for all we know. It doesn't matter how MVP is feeling. MKP is yet to defeat him in a series, which is pretty funny given how good MKP is and the people MVP sometimes loses to. But yeah. Would actually be pretty funny if they didn't even meet. | ||

Well Parting looks to be in a good group. - Shaky Byun - RyungvP LosiravP will be his biggest threat, though it didn't look half as amazing as it used to in up and downs. MC hasn't looked good enough lately, and has 2 great zerg players in his group. Creator has a shot with 1 MU plus other factors such as Byul being new to Code S and Symbol being teamless potentially affecting their play. HuK has no chance. Sniper, Bomber, Gumiho? If HuK advances, even in an ugly fashion, I'll be so impressed. Squirtle is a maybe. He just left the teamhouse though so =S And Hyun + Yoda at the top of their game will beat the current Squirtle we've seen. So chance wise: Parting > Creator > Squirtle > MC > HuK I'm with the sentiment that I'll be happy if one makes it all the way to Ro8. I think only 2 will make it to Ro16. | ||

I just think HuK has the right mindset at the moment and I think he'll go into these games very well prepared. I actually think he's got a shot at advancing and there's always hope that MC will pull some sort of miracle like he always does. He's constantly underestimated. With that in mind, I would still agree with your order of likeliness to advance. It's a bleak outlook for Protoss fans this season. | ||
