Funny that you mention soO being on his way to a third straight quarterfinal. For TY, it would be five in a row.

I think classic can have a decent chance advancing if he plays the new oracle meta build right.
Unless we can see some incredible counter build to it.

@ everyone who is saying innovation will surely advance

Remember the last time He played alive? Every game he got outmultitasked until he found himself boxing everything and marching across the map into a superior tank count. Newkirk was especially brutal. People even said he was slumping after that but he actually just got dumpstered

ALive actually tilts innovation when they play, something i have not read in this thread that should be mentioned. I fully expect proxy raxes from innovation because he will not take that series if his play is anything like it has been in TvT

Yeah he beat him 2-0 in 8 minutes in SSL.

Whatever match you're referring to was over 3 months ago and things have changed a bit since then.

Betting against Innovation is sort of foolish, but if there were matchups for it to happen, it'd be TvT...

Gumiho must really think his TvT is a lot better than Innovation.

aLive has had his few weeks of godlike play already this year, and that was a few months ago. Id be surprised to see him advance, but given it's TvT I guess it's possible.

really funny when people get mad over predictions like they are actual science. "omfg these writers dont know wtf theyre talking about, its almost like they want this to be at least a tiny bit interesting and not cookie cutter predictions" etc. also pretty sure SidianTheBard is just trolling, c0sm0naut might be as well (classics pvz has been pretty terrible for the last couple of months + z favored meta + 0-3 vs rogue last time they met, 0-4 vs soO & 1-2 1-2 vs dark).

i dont agree with all the predictions either, but they seem reasonable over all

I just want Hurricane to win so that everyone's predictions look dumb
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

What we remember is that Inno has not lost a TvT series since he got kicked out of some online tournament by Gumiho around the time his Season 2 Ro16 group came up (maybe group came up later, though in which case his loss in group tvt is his last tvt series loss).

lol ok kids I sure am "trolling" to believe that classic, code S regular has a chance at advancing in a group with the choke artist soo and rogue just because rogue won a thing recently? dont lump me in with the guy predicting voidray chargelot all ins please

from time and time again, the TL writers and others may make gut calls on series or players and statistics might disagree with them. however, we do this only because we feel that statistics dont tell the whole tale, and its up to you as a community to not get butthurt about them, because thats literally all they are... predictions

for example, the last time i dared come to this forum to discuss groups, i made the claim that trap was going to have a really close series vs stats, if not take it. everyone says trap might win a game at max, says im trolling, says he wont win a game. it turns out in the six games they fucking played, they both won three and stats just happened to win the second series so he advanced and trap didnt. you kids just buy into the caster hype which has redundantly praised innovation for being a top terran, stats for being a top protoss and dark for being a top zerg. they have unfairly treated other players like aLive and Gumi who have virtually the same level of accomplishments/consistency becuase for some reason artosis just cannot get off their dicks (sort of like you guys, how funny). the reality is that all of these players are incredibly skilled and really do push this game to the limits, being totally sure of a prediction is severely more foolish than being open minded to the possibility of a rare outcome

@lolfail9001

inovation lost a best of 5 vs gumiho not even one week ago
and innovation has beaten alive since the series i was talking about, because i forgot how much they play each other.

but it really dosent matter, because i predict that innovation will get exposed by aLive and until he does or doesnt expose him, i can't be wrong

look at my post history im not going to dig for it. i barely use this shit anyhow so im sure its on the first page.

its funny how you can even mentally manage to post here greater than 40k times without losing your mind (assuming this post isnt evidence of the contrary). i guess when you post meaningless shit constantly, like a picture of a star saying "prove it" in a forum that archives posts, you can really get taht post number going without actually mentally engaging with this community

its funny, youre wrong until youre right, right?

i was the guy who predicted soulkeys reverse sweep vs innovation and i have the pictures to prove it, along with pictures of the countless idiots here who said it wasnt going to happen because it wasnt even in their realm of possibilities. the first and only reverse sweep in the GSL finals, something the idiot casters in code S couldn't seem to remember because they just Love Love Love their InnoVation, and had repressed the memory of him getting dumpstered back to back to back to back by a player who was just straight up better

the fact that we have to remind people not to call inovation a bonjwa is a testament to how brainwashed artosis has TL

Ok dude. That fact o the matter is that INnoVation and maybe Rogue look super dominant right now. Granted anything can happen in a tournament, but betting against them just seems foolish
