While I sincerely doubt that Symbol has even a 10% chance of advancing, he can show brilliance in the ZvZ MU occasionally, but usually he messes up for some reason despite having TSL as ZvZ practice-mates. Life is just the most rational choice because of his near-invincible play currently, and will probably leave 4-0 or 4-1. Leenock shows excellent play in general, and ZvZ is something he is comfortable with. Soulkey is a bit of an enigma, and least likeliest to advance, but always has a chance against Symbol. Almost certainly Life/Leenock, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Symbol somehow pull it off.
From what I've seen, the TSL style of ZvZ seems to completely ignore aggression in the early game. Sometimes they can blown up hard when they play greedy or when their opponents take an economic risk that goes unpunished.
Well, it makes sense that Team Swarm Life wouldn't want to fight until they actually have a swarm to fight with, am I right? ^^

HEY WE GOT A FUNNY GUY OVER HERE

Soulkey > Life Symbol > Leenock Soulkey > Symbol Leenock > Life Symbol > Leenock
Soulkey and Symbol advance. Calling it now.
|
soulkey will not make it out.
im gonna go with leenock and life.
|
|
This a fking stacked group, and not just because they're all zerg
|
ZvZvZvZ group? I will definitely watch this.
Some may think I'm sadist. No. Rather, I'm a connoisseur of fine matchups. ZvZ in the hands of these players will be fun and interesting.

tbh this is actually going to be very interesting imo. i'm a terran player but high level ZvZ can actually be a good matchup, and with so many games with 4 players of this caliber, who all had about a week to prepare nothing but ZvZ, there should be some really good and interesting games in there.

so this is infestor monobattle?
soulkey and symbol, teamliquid is always wrong recently
|
This is kinda weird... I feel like Life/Leenock/Symbol are all stronger than the entire rest of the current Ro8... and I'd actually say they're my top 3 favourite players remaining as well... this is awkward.
Head says Life > Leenock > Symbol > Soulkey, but damn every outcome would leave me with mixed emotions :s
|
Whoever makes it out of this group is going to have to work for their meal
|
2 Zergs advance?? Imba race ~.~
|
My head says that Soulkey is not making it out. My heart desperately wants him to.
My head and heart agree that Life is going to get out first in this group.

Lol. I guess all you like seeing is standard play until HotS.
|
Surely there can't be any balance whining in this particular group. Hoping for some crazy builds from Leenock.

You got it wrong, he's sick good at macro but he dosn't play macrostyle as much as other zergs, I love to watch a more aggressive zerg compared to the massive amount of macro zergs we have now. He is a really intelligent player, you can't honestly say Leenock is just a cheesy overrated player if you know anything about starcraft.
