This will be microking versus throwtoss. 3) Maru v. Rogue - - Seriously? Both need WCS KR points if they want to go to Blizzcon, and basically, now one of them is guaranteed to advance at least to the Ro8 - - annoying sOs as well. Like, I know anti-nepotism is strong in S. Korea, but do they have to bash Jin Air so hard for hosting SSL this year? 4) INnoVation v. TIME. More like Innovation vs the clock. Betting 99% on 3-0. Just my not-so-quiet opinion. These bad-taste set-ups should not be. It doesn't matter when Maru and Rogue meet; at least one of them won't make Blizzcon because they're both competing for the 8th Blizzcon spot (herO is qualified with at least 5950, while Maru can get to 5925 max), for which they both have to get first place in order to qualify. On the other hand, sOs's worst enemy is Maru simply because Maru is closest in point to sOs. sOs must hope Maru doesn't get to semifinal if he does not advance, or to the final if he gets knocked out in the quaterfinal, or win the tournament. In short, in the best case scenario for JinAir, only one JinAir player can make it to Blizzcon. | ||

Still, sOs needs to keep up his practice intensity level as preparing for GSL playoffs. His PvT is unstable anyway these days. But it will be hard for a guy who just lost a close bo7 final to adjust his mood. | ||

Actually Zest advances to next round is a better scenario for both of their fans. If Zest claims he is back, he better beat sOs in a bo5 mirror match as he usually do. If sOs claims he is still competitive towards Blizzcon, he better beat Zest in same bo5 mirror match as he never did before. herO is already in Blizzcon anyway, he advances to next round will only be beneficial to sOs potentially, no any hype exists. | ||
