I must tell you all right now that Sen is largely unfavored vs. any protoss opponent. It's his weakest match up. Regardless, all players in this tournament are strong, but I can tell you all right now I've seen MacSed beat Sen in 2 or three different tournaments.

First instance: MacSed vs. Sen @ The Beta Cup.
Second Instance: MacSed Vs. Sen NGF China (Chinese event, had no english stream available.)

I can't think of a third right off hand... but I'm sure it will come to mind later.

Is he Code S material? I think HuK is the strongest player in this entire tournament, unless maybe MacSed can pull a rabbit out of his hat.

BreAKer Prediction: HuK wins. Calling it now...

Other than that, I think all of these guys have been WCS contenders one way or another.

Sen beat HuK 2-0 in Challenger league just recently... Not to mention that Macsed got to the Ro8 of Premier, only losing to players who finished in the top 4, while HuK went out in the Ro32 to two players who bottomed their groups in the Ro16 (one of whom Sen then beat in Challenger). HuK is in no way the strongest player, there are two players directly comparable to him who are looking stronger and one or two others who might be stronger but aren't easily comparable.

hurricane is like a borderline Code S player, he's definitely the favorite to win

I mean, look at what duckdeok did to WCS EU

but PvP is volatile, so you never know :o

Yeah Tear's a lot better than his history would suggest, he's had some great showings online and in GSTL. It's gonna be close though, I mean I can see MacSed/Sen winning it all on a good day and I can also see neither reaching top 3 on a bad day. KingKong is still very much a dark horse because it's very hard to compare the SEA scene with the overall scene, and HuK is probably the most inconsistent player on the whole roster so I could see him winning it if he's prepared and focused, and I could also see him finish 7th/8th if he's not. As for LoWeLy, if this were 2012 I would definitely rate him over MacSed and HuK, but nowadays I'm not sure...

Tough to say. :/

At least this time I hope HuK wins something.

Although that being said, I think Jim is going to take this tournament.

So... who is KingKong and why did he and FXOHurricane end up being the KR representatives? The other top KR players couldn't beat them? (or they weren't able to commit to a HK tournament?)

Also, I hope HuK eats some good Cantonese food or even Dim Sum while he's there


KingKong is a former Startale player who moved to Australia for non-gaming related reasons, but his SC2 skills remained and thus he makes aussie lives miserable


Not all of us..........



DON'T MESS WITH THE BEARD MAN!!
