Of all the players, why would Zest choose PartinG in his group? Even if Zest is confident in his PvsP, is PartinG really the weakest Protoss?

yes lol

nope, try again

Cure is barely relevant anymore, I can't even remember the last time he was in GSL. It's been at least a year, if not two.


Cure was literally in the last GSL held, he took a series off of soO in it and has been doing well online.

Ok, you got me there. My bad. Perhaps Cure isn't quite as irrelevant as I thought.

Though, I still wouldn't bet on Cure over Stats/Inno. He missed three seasons of GSL before the last one, and losing to soO in TvZ (pre-Raven nerf no less) doesn't say much for him. Maybe if Maru takes a vacation and lets Cure borrow all his skill or something.

Hurricane is known for his PvP.

A: Classic, sOs
B: Maru, Dear
C: Stats, Cure (!?)
D: GuMiho, Solar
E: Zest, ByuN
F: TY, Trap
G: Dark, Neeb
H: soO, Rogue

Feels weird not predicting Inno, but Cure played really well last Code S, and I think he can make it. Should be a fantastic round of 32. I think Leenock, herO, Hurricane, and aLive all also have a shot at making it out.

Rogue is guaranteed, he is the most solid player in the world. Maru basically just cheesed him out in their match otherwise he would have lost.
And I would say Dark makes it this time around as well.

As opposed to their Katowice series where Rogue played standard in the first two games and lost, then allin'd three times in a row to win?

And iirc Maru opened 2-1-1 in four out of those five games. The only game which could be considered cheesy was the hellion drop.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

it's silly to even talk about who cheesed more with players at that level. they're both elite, top 5 players. if they cheese it's because of their understanding of the meta, not "hurdur their macro sucks," this isn't NA ladder

If you consider Rogue's 90 drone Ling bane muta push an "all-in" then every game Maru won in both series was an allin.

If I remember right, Rogue did a nydus rush, a roach allin, and then a crazy 200 supply baneling attack. Maybe the last game wasn't technically allin if he had 90 drones, but spending all your money on banes and a-moving them into every base of your opponent isn't exactly the most conservative play. My point would stand anyway, claiming Maru only beats Rogue with cheese is wrong.

In the interview after that series Rogue even said himself that he started doing cheeses/crazy builds because he couldn't beat Maru in a standard game.

Balance aside, comparing Maru vs Rogue at IEM and Maru vs Rogue in GSL illustrates how pros play around the meta perfectly. At IEM, Terran had the stronger lategame and thus Rogue was forced to end the game sooner, whereas the situation was reversed in GSL. Ironically, both times featured the race that was allegedly favored losing.

Reynor might have a shot, he is the only foreigner I cheer for, the others should be in wcs.

Interesting, I would say an average of the 2 medians would be more meaningful from the point of view of the weakest player in the group.
