If FXO plays their A-Team this could very well be an all-kill. I'd love to see Illusion's Mechanical TvP, but I doubt it will happen and if it does I doubt it will be successful.

David vs goliath here. Fxo hugely favored but I want vile to win. Vile winning would be a huge underdog victory and a victory for the na scene.

I still have a hard time seeing Vile in the same league as most if any teams in this league, and thats coming from someone who loves the team. Best of luck and I'd love to see an upset happen

Just a reminder, Vile qualified by beating the following teams: mTw, Team Clash, imbaFXO, and ZeNEX (Vile won this one 5-1!).

ChAnCe has taken games off of some incredible players, illusion and State always manage to upend players you wouldn't expect, and DdoRo and Spanishiwa have their flashes of brilliance as well. I'm excited for these games!

vile has a top 3 foreign zerg in spanishiwa, so they might stand a chance if he performs
The truth is, Yagami-kun, I suspect that you may in fact be Kira.

They 5-1ed Zenex. Zenex is a Korean team in the GSTL. Nuff said

I think there's no doubt that Vile is the huge underdog here. I didn't catch much of the qualifiers but beating Zenex 5-1 is very impressive, even though they are probably the weakest korean team.

The score depends on who FXO is going to send out i think. Oz, Leenock, asd, Lucky and Gumiho can allkill most teams on a good day. If FXO decide to send out players from the "original" FXO team, or some of the weaker Koreans, Vile could very likely get some kills.

I still don't see Vile winning though. Even though it would be awesome.
