Damn, this is going to be a big one. I wonder why more people don't watch this. This is basically just like an online GSTL.

StarTale is my favorite Korean team by far. Hope they pull this one through.

Will be unzipped and waiting.

Prime is strongest Korean team at the moment, MKP/Creator/BBongBBong as main players and ByuN/Maru/Annyeong/Bumblebee as backup players.

They are just solid.

No they're not the strongest yet. Both SlayerS and MVP are stronger.

I would say that Byun is a major player for Prime, considering that they used him as Ace against Liquid and MKP mentioned in a post-GSTL interview that he felt comfortable playing because he knew Byun would be deployed after him.

MarineKing is too OP to let his team lose.
Starcraft is a lifestyle.

This still makes him Marineking's backup, because of mkp is prime's #1 terran.

If there's one thing that has hurt Prime in the past it is their lack of a strong Protoss lineup. Creator is their protoss lineup while Startale has Squirtle, Ace, and Parting. If MarineKing doesn't go HAM tonight I would have to favor Startale.

Marineking is over 80% TvP and TvT this year, and if he can take out ST zergs prime has this EZPZ.
Speaking of which, Prime should develop a bunch of vZ snipers so MKP can take out all the T and P for them.

I want Startale to win, but Prime has been looking so strong lately. After Maru demolished them earlier this month, I hope Startale is out for blood this time.
