Happy to see Creator and Hyun.

Did not happen for me in a long time.

Yes, HyuN in Proleague. I have been looking forward to this.

Both GSL finalists gonna play the day after the finals. Oh dear.

jjakji
Not too many exciting match-ups this week compared to the previous ones. Still it's Proleague, we should see good Starcraft.

I'm more worried for TY (who'll play TvZ) than for Zest, even if Ryung is in good shape right now.

Well whoever wins is gonna be hung over. And whoever loses will probably be hung over.

CJ vs JAGW might go to ace.

No, JA will win without going to ace match, even with their B-team

maru and cure should take their games for sure but hero beats creator and byul vs hyun is the hardest to predict i guess.
so 3-1 or 2-2 into ace match.

Oh dear, the ByuN summoning ritual is going to happen. Will he join the team of the winner?

I don't, but herO might be too much.

Hyun!
and solar dark rematch!
|
CJ might not make the playoffs for 2 rounds in a row.

They have negative indicator points. It would be a miracle if they made playoffs this round.

There is still a way for CJ to clinge a playoff spot isnt it?
|
While it sucks for FPL, it's cool that Jin Air let's the b-teamers play .

If CJ win, for them to make playoffs either
A) KT needs to lose both of their remaining matches, AND Samsung has to lose once
B) MVP needs to lose both of their remaining matches, AND Samsung has to lose once
CJ lost head-to-head to both KT and MVP so they would lose in a tie, and if they beat JAGW, they can't tie with Samsung.
MVP still plays KT & Afreeca
KT still plays MVP & Samsung
Samsung still plays SKT & KT
Samsung probably won't make playoffs, MVP and KT have it in their own hands. CJ needs help.
If CJ lose 2-3, they need MVP to go 0-6 and get a map penalty, and Samsung to lose twice by any score.
If CJ lose 1-3 or 0-3, they are out no matter what.

Why isn't everybody excited about Jjakji playing?!!!

Because people forgot he was a GSL champion once. Again.

Great for HyuN, I was hoping to see him in this round! And ByuL is a tough opponent, but I really want HyuN to win!
And of course, Maru's 11:0 ... just for the pleasure of Noonius ...
And Cure should win, too. So 3:1 for Jin Air!
A bad week for my FPL, neither Rogue, nor sOs, nor Trap are playing ... and Ryung against Zest ... good bye 17th place!

Maru and Cure should still be enough to secure the ace match. And yeah it will be cool to see how Hyun and Creator play against CJ's two stars. It wouldn't even be surprising for them to send out someone other than maru or sos in the ace just for practice in high pressure situations considering they have first place locked up already.
|
Hyun and Creator getting some air time. Good stuff. Maru extending his streak.
|
Creatorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr hypeeeeeeeeee

I am, but didn't want to jinx it by hyping it too much. NSH Ace fighting!

I wonder how good jjakji's TvT is. He's played a single BO3 all year (against Ryung in February) that wasn't streamed. The only thing we have to go by is SpeeD saying in GSL that he never beats jjakji and TY in practice. That really doesn't say much, except maybe "He's pretty decent."
By the way, the winner of MVP vs KT makes playoffs guaranteed if it's a 3-0 (provided they don't get enough warnings for a map penalty) or if Samsung loses.
|
Jin Air's indicator is so high, wow.

It should be remembered if solely because Jjakji vs Leenoick was one of the best GSL finals ever in terms of game quality.

Jjakji vs Gumiho. Talk about old school. I'll be looking forward to it!

He won that GSL championship in 2011 when it was still WoL... As sad as it is to say, jjakji is irrelevant right now.

We need to be reasonable. As a team, it was so far working great this season, but we can lose any time to KT or SKT. From the currently 10 best players in the world in LotV, how many do we have?
We have ONE star player and that is Maru. Maru will in most cases beat anyone else. Maybe except Zest. I consider him after Zest the number 2 in the world. Then, Rogue is back in a great shape, but just for the BO1 and when he can prepare himself well for a specific situation, otherwise he would probably lose in a series with the TOP10. Maybe, Rogue could be somewhere around place 8-10. sOs is not in a good shape at all, losing to all good opponents from the TOP10. First when nobody will expect anything from him, everybody forgets his BlizzCons, and the matches will be important and relying on him, then, he will be able to come back and repeat his all kills against KT from last year. But normally in matches with Zest, Classic, Dear, Stats, he will lose.
Then, we are lucky that Trap found a great form and is able to beat all normal players from the other teams except the stars. And I am sure, Cure is in the same situation, maybe even a bit better than that. So our advantage in the moment is that we have 5 very reasonable players able to be very competitive.
And I hope, HyuN will show us on Tuesday also a great style. He was always really good, he can definitely win against ByuL and that would be awesome! Maybe, he even learnt how to make Ravagers, so we will not see only one military unit in the game! :-)

When he won GSL, snipe did ridiculous damage. Snipe does ridiculous damage now. Just saying.
Wolf hyped up Impact making his return to Proleague and HyuN making his debut, but didn't mention jjakji at all. jjakji has hit rough times. He looked really good for parts of HotS though, if he can get back to that form he could be relevant again.

That's why I'm saying JA "as a team" is in another dimension, at least for this round. Doesn't matter sOs is in a bad shape or Zest is in a good shape right now, first you need to find "a team" who can force JA to the ace match, otherwise that big number +11 just tells everything
|
I think JA profit that their 3 force Maru SoS Rogue got eliminated very early this year in both SSL and GSL so they have only SPL to prepare for
