Predictions
The staff of FXOpen e-Sports have included some predictions for the second round, have a look at what we think:
The staff of FXOpen e-Sports have included some predictions for the second round, have a look at what we think:
MarineKingPrime vs Polt
+ Show Spoiler [Unstable's prediction] +
On one side we have MKP the two time defending champion of the FXOpen invitational series. On the other we have TSL Polt. Both of these players are finalist material in this event. Polt has been playing really well recently, but so has MKP. With MKP coming through SaSe with what seemed like little to no effort. Polt coming through Fin with the same ease. I am going to have to go with Polt purely on his TvT prowess in this matchup - Polt 2-1 MKP
FXOLeenock vs StarTaleJuly
+ Show Spoiler [Unstable's prediction] +
Leenock vs July is going to be a very very interesting game. It will either be over in 2-3 5 minute games or be so massively drawn out its not funny. Leenock’s zvz has not been his best matchup for a while. This coming with the unpredictability of July’s style can cause lots of interesting games. But I think the difference in the play styles will help July a lot more than Leenock here. - July 2-0 Leenock
FXOChoya vs FXOGuMiho
+ Show Spoiler [Unstable's prediction] +
Player vs Coach, this will be one of the most wacky sets in the entire invitational. Every time this happens you never see a straight up game in this situation, so sit back and let’s see what random will never work anywhere else cheese we see from both players - GuMiho 2-1 Choya
SlayerSPuzzle vs SlayerSRyung
+ Show Spoiler [Unstable's prediction] +
The two brothers from Slayers, both have the skill to go deep in this invitational but puzzle has pulled himself together more often than ryung in tournaments recently. Having a dominant performance in almost all his matchups is hard to see ryung taking down puzzle. - Puzzle 2-0 Ryung
NSHoSeoJjakji vs LiquidZenio
+ Show Spoiler [frequency's prediction] +
Jjakji, fresh off of his Code S, is going to take on Code S drop out Zenio. Jjakji is a clear favourite here, his TvZ is remarkable, and Zenio's ZvT isn't all that hot as seen at IEM Kiev, constantly throwing away units and creating bad positions for himself. Zenio is capable, but I don't think it will happen this time. - Jjakji 2-0 Zenio
TSLRevivaL vs FXOLucky
+ Show Spoiler [frequency's prediction] +
There isn't much known about Revival's ZvZ, especially since he hasn't had a single ZvZ in the GSL. He does, however, have the same name as a Korean fighter (???) and he looks pretty scary (yeah, I'm grasping at straws). Lucky's ZvZ is mostly known for his IPL3 grand final, where he didn't fare too well against Stephano. Lucky did take out IdrA in Code S though, so his ZvZ can't be too bad. I'll just be biased (inb4 pitchforks) and say Lucky will win. Lucky 2-1 Revival
FXOz vs SlayerSClide
+ Show Spoiler [frequency's prediction] +
Stomping through seemingly everyone, Oz I think is favourite to beat Clide here (unless you ask Tasteless). Oz won pretty handily against Jinro, and Clide didnt seem his usual self against HyuN in the first round, so I think Oz is a favourite, but it won't be impossible for Clide to win. He is Clide after all. Cliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide. Oz 2-0 Clide
MvPDongRaeGu vs FXOasd
+ Show Spoiler [frequency's prediction] +
DongRaeGu is known as the terran killer for a reason. Despite a shaky first round, he's a big favourite here. asd is a solid terran, but DRG is DRG. If asd wins I think it will be the biggest upset of the round, which sucks cos asd is such a nice guy - DongRaeGu 2-0 asd
