Life when he doesn't suck would be the best. TY is probably a good answer but I'm not sure the KT coach will go for it. | ||

It depends on how many kills Zest gets. I assume if he beats sOs they send out Rogue on Expedition Lost. If he wins that one aswell they probably go straight into Maru (or field Cure or Trap on Deadwing but that would severely risk getting them down to 0-3 at that point) and even if Zest lost at that point (because he refuses to not play a straight-up game vs Maru), KT can still fall back on Life, TY, Stats or Flash. | ||

Well the problem is that the two players who are the most likely to beat Maru are also the most likely to lose to anyone else (except Cure) on JinAir. Thus unless Maru is sent out last this is going to be difficult. But I believe in Zest beating Maru. He has so many losses against him already, there'll be one win at one time or another. | ||

No. I really think they won't. They will send out Cure or go straight for Maru. (Although I could imagine Cure might have prepared to snipe Life.) Rogue will most likely only come out after either of those. Also Rogue hasn't been doing well on Expedition Lost. My bet is on Maru as a second player in the case of Zest > sOs. | ||

If you mean Flash and TY, their big issue would be Rogue above all else. sOs would already be gone by then and they can both handle Trap and Cure. And with all due respect I don't think Jin Air would field Symbol, Check, Pigbaby or Terminator. On June 30 2015 01:39 sCuMBaG wrote: No. I really think they won't.

Also Rogue hasn't been doing well on Expedition Lost. My bet is on Maru as a second player in the case of Zest > sOs. Rogue has lost twice on Expedition Lost, and only in ZvZ (one of which was against soO). He's won a playoff game on the map, he's won an ace match on the map, and he's been their most common choice for the map as well as their best vP player aside from Maru. And EL is a good map for Zerg in general. He'd be a very good choice. Not feeling Cure, he's not been doing well this round, and I think 2nd player is too early for Maru. | ||

This is the round a team went 7-0 and another 0-7. This is the round where a team that screamed "2011" each time the lineups were published almost got in the playoffs. This is the round for crazy things to happen :D | ||

From there it'll be up to KT Rolster to send someone out although I predict that it'll be Life unless they have someone prepare something special. I'm antsy about predicting this one although if push comes to shove I'd say Maru > Life looking at the way Life has been playing lately. After that, things go downhill for KT Rolster. | ||
