Love this ToC. Looking forward to tonights games =) I think the Jjakji vs. Kas series should be entertaining. Hard to say who will win, but when in doubt, go with the korean right? haha

The multiplying villanies of man do swarm upon him.

So have we all.

Regarding the matches: Kas is having a bit of a hard time at the moment, so I'd say Jjakji is favoured by quite a large margin, especially since he looked really good in almost all of his games I saw from him recently (e.g winning three TvTs against MKP and Byun in the IPL Team Arena Challenge finals). Even though TvT seemed like his Achilles' heel in the past, he looks relatively sharp now.
His opponent Kas on the other hand, has proven that he can go toe to toe with Koreans in TvT in events like WCG where he beat MarineKing or in IPL Fight Club where he went up 3-1 against Ganzi but ultimately losing 3-5. As of late he has shown some problems against Korean Terrans though, losing to Puma, Heart and SuperNoVa in Assembly, EGMCS and IEM.

I still love to watch both of them and it'll be very interesting to watch if and how long Kas can keep up with Jjakji.

Polt and Squirtle need no big words, two Code S players - one coming off a big tournament win, the other just made it into Code S in impressive fashion. It's always something special to see Polt play against a good Protoss and I'm sure both players won't disappoint today.

I want to say Jjakji and Polt. If Kas starts playing well again he has a shot against Jjakji's TvT since he did beat Marineking at WCG and Marineking was still able to 2-1 Jjakji back then in Code A. I'm just gonna play it safe with the Korean win.
3-1 Jjakji
3-1 Polt

Jjakji is so sick TvT, he should have no trouble here.

Polt vs Squirtle is harder to call, even though Polt is good at TvP Squirtle has really stepped up his game lately.
