LOL don't be surprised if AxiomAcer does poorer than FXOpen did in their inaugural season. How long have they been in Korea practicing HotS together in team house? How will the team balance GSTL appearances in March with the upcoming huge LAN competitions such as IEM, IPL, and MLG?


Why do you think you know so much about the team? I mean for one thing we're not even at MLG because arbitrary points system says that Jjakji and Curious apparently deserve spots in the qualifier more than people like Alicia who placed 2nd in 2 MLG events, Ryung a RO4 GSL semi-finalist, or Heart who consistently finished highly in MLG events in 2012. Nah wait that's eSF and Kespa throwing a hissy fit and demanding separate brackets, taking up 14 spots in the invitational and 20 in the qualifiers and "independent/korean" teams only getting 3 spots to fight over, 2 of which are going to Liquid by the looks of it. America gets 7 spots and 14 in the qualifiers btw, some of the players in that bracket aren't even playing regularly anymore.

Oh sorry do I sound a bit salty? Well yeah, thankfully this stupid system isn't getting used again and it happened to line-up with our desire not to send players to the US during an important team league anyway.

Anyway point is you don't know anything about the team. They've been focused on HotS and GSTL for ages. We're not attending IEM or MLG, we'll send a couple of players to the IPL open bracket, which I might add is a full month AFTER this match. We know what we are doing.

it is HotS though and the cards are re dealt now.

couldnt predict a winner of this matchup, though Prime clearly lacks the depth of other teams

This is going to really neat. I can't imagine the games will be very good, but it doesn't matter to me here, it'll be fun.

Aren't know-it-alls so awesome?

On kind of an aside, I hope GOM restreams this like they're doing for their Code A/S, it's been really nice thus far to be able to watch stuff after I get back from school. And team league is always exciting!

The good news is apparently Marineking hellbat dropped his way to rank 1 gm in a day with like a 80% win rate

Well in the internet you'll allways find someone, who's thinking to know everything better. The MLG system has some flaws in it, and that's a pity. With LG-IM's only performer right now being Losira, I think you'll have a great chance, of doing well in this event! keep up the good work! :D

I hope this won't be a disaster. From the interviews so far it seems that no one is practicing HoTS that much yet. Playing MLG showmatches without preparation etc. Lets hope a preseason of GSTL is incentive enough to practice for at least the next few days before it begins.

I'm hoping for Mvp all-kills until he singlehandedly wins the Preseason for LG-IM.
