I did a bit of thinking, let's see if I can get this done.

Oh dear, this is a pain to do. Well, I'm ready to be positively surprised by Flash and Zest.

It's difficult to ignore a man who has a winrate of 83% in his last 53 official games, including a 3-0 against Stats to qualify for this event.

Hurray for getting my wisdom teeth pulled early Thursday morning. Semi-legit reason to spend some days watching.

I get that Trap has been playing well recently, but am very surprised at the amount of people predicting Trap to beat Rain. Rain 4-0'ed Trap in the finals of Pughcraft not too long ago. As long as he doesn't run into any swarm hosts, Rain seems primed to win his matchup.

And there's always this weird thing with Rain where when he's on a rise, and everyone expects him to win, he disappoints and falls slightly short; then when he's not 'hot' at the moment and people are starting to forget him as a favorite, he does better again and reclaims the 'favorite to win x tournament' spot. So for Rain fans (I'm one myself), it's probably a good thing that there aren't many people predicting a Rain win, if history repeats its usual Rain results trend in Katowice next weekend.

Man, I totally agree with you, also, Rain has a winning record against Trap historically

Solar is on an entirely different level in individual leagues compared to his really bad SPL performances. Bbyong is an all around solid player who rarely gets to shine in indivduals. Rain hasn't been doing well recently considering how good he can be. He dropped out of his GSL Ro16 group, which Solar took 1st place in. So yes, by current form I rate them that way. If you disagree with my rating, that's fine and your opinion, but don't be an ass about it.
