i'm surprised people aren't calling out ban bets on nerchio yet

if nerchio goes 0-2, i ban him for a month

if nerchio wins a series, i ban all of the takers for a week and no one can talk trash on him that entire week

if nerchio advances, i ban all of the takers for a month and no one can talk trash on him that entire month

any takers? nerchio?

I would bet Nerch to lose every match except one set.

I would say, Nerchio can win all his matches except the matches against Maru, Patience and Classic. I am just afraid, he will not get to play against Maru ... You know, if he loses in the first match and then in the losers match and Maru wins the first match, they would not play together at all, right?

KeSPA did a great job with the groups:
1. perfect race distribution, no group with two races only
2. perfect team distribution, no team kills
3. perfect foreigner distribution, every group can enjoy their own foreigner
4. Patience / Classic to fight for their BlizzCon spot in one group
5. Giving Nerchio into Maru's group

All this will be soooo great!!!!

I heard that losing in Korea might be more profitable than winning

Poor Neeb. I think TRUE will make it through though and I give Mlord and Nerchio very slim chances.

Group A and D are pretty sick. I hope Zest can finally break out of his slump and advance past group A.

To be honest, i think that Nerchio has the easiest group of all foreigners in KespaCup. When it comes to Maru, Nerchio defeated him rather easily in Shoutcraft Kings. Now, i know that this is not a big indicator, but at least it shows that this particular Zerg is not EZ snack for korean first class Terran. I think he can beat Patience, but Classic is another thing. Overall, he couldn't get better group to prove us all that not only koreans can pla Starcraft 2 (his own words). So- GO GO NERCHIO! I'm hyped as a child in candy store! Nerchio vs koreans and premiere tournament brings emotions that i almost forgot in sc2 :-) Thank u for that. We're all counting on You!

Nerchio is definitely capable of advancing. As well as MarineLord. They just need to prepare hard. Not so sure about Neeb because there is a mirror possibility (although Zest is in a slump these days), it can't be predicted and then it's ByuN, who is... ByuN obviously. Rogue is a dark horse as always.

And obviously this. The last time i was hyped that much was Naniwa vs. Korea Blizzcon in 2013. I strongly believe that foreigners are in their best shape ever, and it is the right time! And what i really like about Nerchio is his attitude. While naniwa (i respect him anyways) and lilbow gave up before the fight (in 2013 and 2015 accordingly), nerchio (and snute) believes in himself. I can feel this confidence.
