No stream as far as I'm aware

Results might be a bit more difficult to follow live for the kespa prelims since we can't bnet profile stalk like we did with the non-kespa prelims, but we can still follow on various twitters and korean news sites!

B group of death

I am rooting so much for (P)The Bird. But I am afraid given how SC2 is volatile for Kespa players it may go very weird there and for example (P)Lizzy advancing over (T)BaBy, (T)Leta, (T)FBH, (P)Stork. Which would be bad for ESPORTS(jk).

Trivia. (P)Stork last time was in OSL prelims in 2007... ;]

yay OSL!

It will be easier to answer when we see who managed to pass prelims +ODT. But any Kespa player is in disadvantage vs current OSL SC2 players who managed to pass ODT.

Group A:

Sun.

Most consistent player in the group, I think light and action could both threaten though.

Group B:

Baby.

Group of death! I think Lizzy's time is already over and Stork and Baby have both looked great lately, though I think Stork has a potentially harder run and Baby looks strong at every part of SC2.

Group C:

Soulkey.

Not a given but probably the most solid player in the group despite his recent ace match slide.

Group D:

Effort.

Practically unstoppable. Will be interesting to see if Shy can qualify though and back up his win for Kespa in the first ready action matches.

Group E:

hrm, Mini?

I don't really know for this group, I almost want to just say that Bisu will pull it out of the hat without the broadcast pressure and a doable group.

Group F:

Jaedong

I have faith! Plus he looks good lately in SC2. That and I think only Reality really poses a big threat in terms of typical level of play.

Group G:

Roro

He should crush this group if he plays like in PL.

Group H:

Jaehoon

He actually looks pretty strong the last couple of weeks.

Tough one to call.

Group I:

Dunno!

I like Bogus, he keeps playing good games but falling just short...so I'm going to pick him to actually string it together lol

Group J:

Flying or Hyvaa

Whoever has the better PvZ.

===

Really it's hard to tell only seeing a game or two of SC2 tops every couple of weeks.

Group A: (T)Light. (P)By.Sun is ok, but Woongjin Terran + Coach Ryu Won...so imba
Group B: (T)BaBy. The most impressive terran out of all the Kespa players so far by quite a bit imo. Group of death though.
Group C: (Z)Neo.G_Soulkey. Of all the better players in the proleague so far, he's probably looked the shakiest. Still awesome, and fun to watch as well.
Group D: Fuuuuuck. (P)sHy? (Z)EffOrt? Rooting for (P)sHy either way >_>
Group E: I remember (P)Wooki getting some decent wins. No one really stands out here except (P)Bisu, and that's not for a good reason :p
Group F: (P)StarDuuuuuuust. Or maybe not, but I hope he does so he can show the world some glorious Airtoss. (Z)Jaedong's probably gonna make it through.
Group G: (Z)RorO sc2 bonjwa
Group H: (T)hOn_sin. July terran.
Group I: (P)herO[jOin] probably?
Group J: (P)Flying <3

All in all, no idea what will actually happen. Should be fun times, I've already got my F5 button ready!

Group A: By.Sun > Action > Light > TurN > Dear > Iris > Size > Bong > Check
Group B: BaBy > Stork > Leta > Lizzy > Firebathero > Modesty > Sacsri > Fokins > Hudadak
Group C: Soulkey > GuemChi > Shuttle > Sea > SoO > Hydra > Acacia > Chavi > YooTaeHo > Yourosia

In terms of how likely they are to win I think. I'll figure out more later.

I believe it's another group format then and once it hits ro8 it goes into bo5. I might be wrong though.
When I think of something else, something will go here

When it gets down to eight GSL players and eight OSL players, the two sides merge to make a Ro16. Then a nomination group process will happen which will be pretty surreal seeing KESPA and GSL players interacting.

Wooo, the surreal reality.

What if all Kespa players get eliminated by GSL in the Ro16. I worry if GSL players go for some new tricky strategies that Kespa players haven't seen and practiced before, then Kespa players may have a hard time adapt to, since their experiences in SC2 are still thin.

I think there will be a few KeSPA player vs KeSPA player matchups in the Ro16 depending on how the group selection lottery goes, so hopefully at least a few KeSPA players make it into the Ro8 or beyond. If we're lucky, maybe there might be an all-KeSPA group by chance or a group where a KeSPA player has a good chance of advancing.
