+ Show Spoiler +Curses! Another prediction failed. I could do some kind of self-reflection, but duty calls way too soon, and this match is probably the most important I've ever made a thread on with the possible exception of KT vs. STX. First, lets look at the maps. Set 1: < Empire of the Sun > Set 2: < Grand Line SE > Set 3: < Circuit Breaker > Set 4: < Aztec > Set 5: < Fortress > Set 6: < Benzene > Ace Match: < Central Plains > You might notice that there is no Icarus, but even more importantly, the Ace match is on the PvP heaven Central Plains. While forGG continues to be played on Fortress, no other map specific players can be noted, but Grand Line SE usually delivers big scale TvT-s or TvP-s. So, depending on whether Stars decide to snipe Flash or to avoid him, Grand Line SE and Benzene are probably the best maps to do so. Really could also potentially be sniped by Action on those maps, but Aztec might turn out to be an epic PvP this time around, considering the maps current stats. As I am TL's resident Kim Carrier apparently, lets start off with the prediction that Woongjin Stars will win if it doesn't go to ace, and KT rolster have a slightly better chance to win if it does. Since that is not a proper prediction, I'll predict stars to have an advantage. Violet, fOrGG, and Action don't feel as solid as the Stars lineup, and while Really and flying have problems of their own, the shortcomings don't feel as severe because there is less pressure on them. Therefore I think that it will be at least difficult to reach an ACE match, and unlike any other ACE match, KT is not as strongly favored, because Stars pretty much expect Stats and Free can practise accordingly. So, in total Stars win either 4-2 or 4-3. + Show Spoiler + Please don't kill me, stars fans/swanized..

Personal recommendations: unplayed games will be given a random description to avoid spoilers. + Show Spoiler [Game 1] + I thought this game was over and boring. Then I saw spore colonies. Boy was I wrong. Watch this right now. + Show Spoiler [Game 2] + Great micro and brilliant break. A definite yes from me, whatever the others voted. + Show Spoiler [Game 3] + Good defense, but overall, not really. + Show Spoiler [Game 4] + What an excellent PvP. More storms than you can go around with, and some really pimp play from both players. Highly recommended. + Show Spoiler [Game 5] + Average TvP. Not really worthy of a recommendation except for the battle at the very end. + Show Spoiler [Game 6] + Great aggressive play. Check it out if you have time. + Show Spoiler [Game 7] +

Should be plenty of cool games here. ^__^ I want to see Flash vs Soulkey.

If free, soulkey, zero, and really can dodge flash then Stars win for sure. If not this should be close.

@KizZBg - I usually wake up at 6 a.m., but then again, I might have a slightly less strict schedule than you do. :D

come on stars! Free, Zero, Soulkey, and Piano are gonna take this. Woonjin has a very strong set of 4 or 5 players, i really think they have the potential to win PL this year.

lol you use strong set of players and Piano in the same sentence
I agree with the other three, but Piano is nothing lol. And Really is too inconsistent.

I LIKE KT'S HAIRSTYLES
Woongjin's hairstyles, on the other hand... JUST NO.
KT VOTE.
Mafiazerg going to tear things up.

Let's see... Stars have Free, Zero and the new hope of Zerg, Soulkey. But KT has Stats, ForGG, Action, and the Fifth Bonjwa. This will be a close one, but eventually KT will win due to the power of the turtle god.

stars of course
Soulkey is way too good
zero is way too good
|
Hoping for something awesome to happen. But either KTFlash will happen or KT takes this when the Stars aces choke.
|
I've been waiting for this match for a long time... I love this season's Stars team, but not as much as I love KT (and Flash!) If you remember what Soulkey said in an recent interview,
>Soulkey: It wasn't so much the maps as my grasp of ZvT. Next time we play KT, I hope to face up against Flash, but it doesn't really matter who I play. [T/N unsure of that last part] flash vs soulkey could indeed be very entertaining

As long as we don't lose in the ace. ACE CURSE BROKEN LAST TIME OKAY STARS? DON'T DO IT EVER AGAIN

It is interesting to note that Soulkey has recently beaten Fantasy and Sea, who are the 2nd and 3rd best Terran in the world. With those wins he is qualified to enter the Turtle temple and face the God himself.
I'm sure if they have the chance to play each other it will be a very interesting match.

I want to see free vs Flash on Central Plains Massive map imba - the only way Free could stand a chance vs Flash. Oh, and proxy 2 Gate vs Proxy Rax too I guess. But ya, it could be a really cool game. ^__^ There are so many potentially awesome match-ups between these teams.
