We need to be reasonable. As a team, it was so far working great this season, but we can lose any time to KT or SKT. From the currently 10 best players in the world in LotV, how many do we have?
We have ONE star player and that is Maru. Maru will in most cases beat anyone else. Maybe except Zest. I consider him after Zest the number 2 in the world. Then, Rogue is back in a great shape, but just for the BO1 and when he can prepare himself well for a specific situation, otherwise he would probably lose in a series with the TOP10. Maybe, Rogue could be somewhere around place 8-10. sOs is not in a good shape at all, losing to all good opponents from the TOP10. First when nobody will expect anything from him, everybody forgets his BlizzCons, and the matches will be important and relying on him, then, he will be able to come back and repeat his all kills against KT from last year. But normally in matches with Zest, Classic, Dear, Stats, he will lose.
Then, we are lucky that Trap found a great form and is able to beat all normal players from the other teams except the stars. And I am sure, Cure is in the same situation, maybe even a bit better than that. So our advantage in the moment is that we have 5 very reasonable players able to be very competitive.
And I hope, HyuN will show us on Tuesday also a great style. He was always really good, he can definitely win against ByuL and that would be awesome! Maybe, he even learnt how to make Ravagers, so we will not see only one military unit in the game! :-)

That's why I'm saying JA "as a team" is in another dimension, at least for this round. Doesn't matter sOs is in a bad shape or Zest is in a good shape right now, first you need to find "a team" who can force JA to the ace match, otherwise that big number +11 just tells everything
