3 out of 4 matches for Afreeca vs MVP are exact rematches from round 1, they just replaced KeeN with Patience. But damn, Dear vs TY on Frost :O

If Departure beats Curious and MVP beats Afreeca then I will have a perfect anti-team in FPL of Curious, Keen, DRGling.

I don't think Samsung have much hope against KT. They really need Dear to beat TY, and Bravo to beat Leenock, then have someone (probably Dear) take down Zest in the ace match. It does not seem likely. Otherwise they need something big from Reality or Solar. Reality could beat Stats but KT are definitely the favourites.

MVP should win, but Samsung vs. KT seems a lot closer to me than it probably should.

I would really like to see the Afreeca Freecs win their first match this round.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.

Honestly, I just think that this will be a win for MVP and KT. Overall I'm sad to see Afreeca in last but I'm really happy that it's not always the same team in the bottom, so no new Prime!

I think MVP's gonna take it but I'd like to see Samsung in the playoffs more .Hoping that Samsung can pull another 3-0, but that's kinda unlikely.

Both match-ups look really close tbh. I think both are likely to go to ACE, with MVP and KT wins.

That would be so weird. But KT vs Samsung is kinda close, as is MVP vs Afreeca. Still, lineups as they are, CJ has a realistic shot to make playoffs with a -3 map score.

Useless fact: Samsung hasn't beaten KT for almost 2 years, but the last time they did, King Sejong Station, Overgrowth and Frost were in the map pool. KT fields 3 of the players who played in that match, Samsung none.

Oh, it was the match that the Observer PC broke and we got to see Stork vs TY in first person in the latter half. Good times.

Such exciting (and meaningful) W6 matches! AF/MVP has ace match written all over in bold.

Although given AF's terrible showing this round and w/ Alive falling off, absolutely no idea who they'd send out if required (hopefully not Bomber like last time).

Samsung put on an incredible performance last week in coming in ultra prepared and focused, and giving SKT the worst thrashing they've received in years. The english commentary crew continues to crap on Reality, while all he does is keep producing results and proving that his playstyle is best suited for the BO1 PL format. A second consecutive 3-0 Samsung sweep seems possible w/ the matchups. If Dear can beat TY, everything should align well.

Still rooting for CJ to get the 4th slot for the R2 playoffs. No team has endured the difficulties they've had to this season. And their showing this round, after looking down and out for the count in R1, has been inspiring. I hope if there's a TL write-up following R2, that herO gets the recognition he deserves for delivering perhaps the greatest round in history (yes, even over Maru's current 6-0 one, TY's 7-0 in '14, and Inno's 6-0 in '15).

herO has gone 7-3 this round, w/ three ace match victories (for all of his team's three victories). He's won every initial game to get to the three ace matches, and came within a hair of winning a fourth one against the most dominant ZvP in the world (Dark) on a heavily Z favored map. herO has as many ace match wins this round as every other player combined.

The last time I can remember a PL team relying so entirely on just one player (to win their initial match and then trying to scrounge together another win anywhere to force an ace match so said player can come back out), is back in BW w/ Flash for KT (before the emergence of Stats).

herO has been CJ this entire round. And every other team knows that there is no other option to appear in any possible ace match, regardless of the map imbalance. And thus have been able to specifically prepare any player/sniper/build they want against him in advance.

I hope I'm not the only one who appreciates the magnitude of what herO has done in R2 against all odds.

2016 GSL Season II Qualifier will hold on next Wednesday, but why only 16 players qualify for Code A?
Shouldn't it be 24 since there are already 24 players in Code A?

B) Why don't you ask your question in a thread about the GSL qualifiers?

That question wouldn't be worth an entirely new thread by TL standards I'm pretty sure. But there's a thread for the Code A qualifiers you could have bumped.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2/508612-2016-gsl-season-2-code-a-qualifiers

And yes, it should be 24. 24 from qualifiers vs 24 from Code S. Not actually sure why the Liquipedia says 16.

In case you ever need to make a new thread, by the way, you click on the subforum you want to make your thread in (e.g. "General") and you'll see a big white button near the top that says "Create New Topic".

He keeps getting important wins for Samsung and he's doing very well online, so I think it's fair to say he's quite good. Even so, I doubt he will beat Stats.
