Wow poor Jim, gets the Asia seed, hype for more non-Koreans in Korean leagues....then gets Maru as a first round opponent. Well, on second thought Maru has seemed to be slumping so maybe Jim can take him out. Scarlett got a nice opponent tho, and she said she already knows who her vT practice partner will be!

Rly wish they would do groups though, there will be so many deserving players leaving this tournament early...

Buddy, you misunderstand Maru.

Maru hasn't been slumping. Maru hasn't been placed in any preparation based matches for a long, long time. It's well known that Maru is pretty bad in qualifiers or weekend tournaments. He never performs well there, even in his peak. If anything ,the fact he got through a tough qualifier is very, very worrysome to everybody in the bracket.

I always thought it's less that Maru is "bad" at weekend tournaments and more that he just doesn't play in weekend tournaments. He's just one of the few top Koreans left who never attends international events and Korea has weekend tournaments very rarely. Sure he's missed out on some qualifiers but so has everyone--bracket qualifiers stacked with Koreans are very hard to predict, as these qualifiers have amply illustrated.

If you're going to tell me that Maru has been as good as he ever has been over the last few months I'm going to up and remove your flair because it's having a bad influence on your mind D:

This tournament is so stacked... Expecting a lot of upsets.

Just noticed a match that will probably be a micro slugfest : MarineKing vs FanTaSy ^^. Can't wait for that one !
