Pretty much, and even then that might not be enough, lol. =/
Edit: Oh right, you said to even have a prayer of making it!

man i get shudders just thinking about how bad we'd be if it was still the oldschool format of 1 of every race :\

Glad to see Iris is still better than Bogus.
If STX keeps losing, can we vote them out of Playoffs? I'd really like to see both Oz and Khan make it.
KT/MBC/SKT/CJ/OZ/KHAN please.

Pop quiz (don't look it up!!!) STX has only 1 player that has a winning record in round 5. Name that player!

I don't see any scenario where CJ don't make playoffs, unless ACE upsets them.

Well if CJ go 0-3 the winner of OZ vs KHAN might have a chance, but it's still unlikely. OZ would have to beat SKT or MBC (which is tough), and KHAN would have to beat KT or WeMade (which is tougher).
If CJ win even one remaining game, that forces OZ or KHAN to go 5-0 to qualify. OZ might be able to go 4-1 and make up set differential but KHAN can't.

His role is to be a reliable player that rookies have to rely on for tips and mental support.
You get what I'm saying. Next T in line after Hwasin for most live TV experience and overall progamer experience.

I think STX' strategy of hiding players kinda worked today, but what they forgot is:
Coach Cho can read what STX coaching staff is planning by just looking at their face. :D
|
|
So Kal continues to lose, and clam wasn't even fielded today. A poor day for STX. I would probably like them more if they didn't disappoint so badly.

Come on Bogus, pick yourself up and brush that dirt off your shoulder.

This is sad. PL feels unfair in a way -- STX was doing so well all year, but recent momentum counts a lot for playoffs. I don't see them doing well when both their top players are doing so poorly. Hell, Calm wasn't even selected. At least Modesty and Shuttle did their expected jobs as matchup specialists. If the dual aces can shape up in time we'll get back on track.
