So I've had a pretty incredible run of things in proleague with my predictions, yet I feel completely out of my depth here as I basically can't tell who is going to win in pvp lmao

So hard... I forgot about Rain in his Ro16 group so maybe he will beat herO. I'm just not sure!

sOs 3-0 Zest
Rain 2-3 herO

Can't take much from the IEM finals so don't see why sOs would magically do worse here

HYPPPPPUUUUUU~~ I cannot tell who will win out of sOs and Zest....the safe bet is sOs by a country mile...but jetlag, 100K richer (loss of focus? + Drive?), Zest is no joke in PvP too, its really hard to call it...

Head: sOs 3-2, Heart: sOs 3 - 0

But I am 93.2% sure herO will "Possum-Stomp" Rain.... 3 - 0

Great write up guys!!~~

sOs to still be on point and take down Zest.

Had to take Rain after seeing him dominate that PvP group. Though I wouldn't mind being wrong and herO continuing on too.

I think Zest will beat sOs, but not because he is the better player (he is not...) but i guess sOs wiould be tired and had some kind of jetlag, and i dont think he would be thinking too much in SC2 after getting 100k, i know i would not

In my heart i want sOs to advance, but i dont think that will happen, but who knows... he is the mad scientis, he might have something for everyone here

I think that despite being predictable, if rain play safe he will win. He just has superb late game PvP control. I think if rain decided to proxy at all it will be 50/50

Zest is good but sOs is a monster... Zest has shown signs of weakness while sOs pretty much hasn't at all. sOs will take it somehow,
herO shouldn't have much problem with Rain either. Rain still is looking shaky imo.

The predictions seem alright. Jet lag + weak mental for herO will make Rain win. The victories of sOs over herO weren't that impressive imo. Cheesing the first 2 games and game 4 and 5 were pretty weak by herO losing Stalkers sloppily. Hence we cannot calculate too much from that series for sOs. Couple that with jet lag + missing prep time and we have the King of PvP, the Killer: Zest as the winner.

i won't be surprised if sOs becomes a multiple gsl winner, his pvp is ridiculous. he might just pvp his way to bonjwaness;) lets hope someone can snipe him, i'm not really a fan of his personality

Go Zest! Yes, I'm a bitter anti-sOs fan.

Yeah! He kinda reminds of Mvp during WoL in terms of playstyle and planning. It's hard to be a bonjwa for PvP's. Even Oz and PartinG used to have monstrous PvP wins, now they have ~50% wins.

Inca doesn't count

You guys are hyping him up to much prepare for an 0-3 loss and a Ro32 elimination next season good job guys.

Worth noting that Zest and Rain have the advantage of having more time to prepare as well as having replays of sOs and herO's games at IEM. Dunno if that will factor too much but we'll see.
