Well, it is quite funny they set up Serral and Maru in the opposite brackets, although I doubt anyone will complain.

I will. It is shameless bracket rigging. Neeb didn't get that consideration in 2016 when he was matched up against Korea's #1 in the playoff stage. In 2017, Elazer (WCS #2) and INnoVation (Korea #2) ended up on the opposite sides of the bracket, but they didn't have a rule to force that.

Anyone that thinks Dark or Rogue stands a chance against Serral's ZvZ is crazy. I'd give Lambo or Elazer more chance than any Korean zerg. Korean ZvZ is so far behind Europe's.

Big congratulations to TY and Stats - the only players to participate at all Blizzcons of LotV!

I am super hyped for this bracket, rigged as it is.

I really don't think the bracket is rigged. If they wanted to have Maru v Serral finals, they wouldn't have put Maru against sos in the first round imo

Yeah it's not like he completely embarassed Serral at IEM Katowice... wait he did do that.
Banned for saying "zerg players are by far the biggest whiners in sc2 history" despite the fact that this forum is full of such posts about Terrans. Foreigner Elitists in control!

I don't have much fate in Dark but Rogue zvz is quite good and he can plays a more of beat zvz with muta and lings base composition that gave a lot of trouble to Serral in Montreal.

Man everyone forgets him 3-0'ing Serral. If Serral had won that match people would still be talking about it lol.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Neeb crushed Serral 3-0 just a couple weeks ago. Even the best lose sometimes. Alternatively, Classic losing to Reynor and now Special diminishes Reynor's victory over Classic even more and shows that he is in a pretty weak state right now.
