Even though the Bo7 format gets lots of flak from Jaedong Oz fans, it has hit other teams too. Do you remember the end of last season where ACE had improved a lot, played some fascinating games, and somehow lost the Ace match soon after? I do, and as someone who had the ACE tag at that time, it broke my heart till the wins started rolling in. Now, with the Bo7 format, there might be new opportunities and more severe defeats from the likes of KT and SKT1.
MBCGame does not have the luxury of scoffing over ACE, though. As of now, they have only two strongly performing players, and Tyson, Hyun, and Jaehoon seem to only win when their opponent is performing horribly as well (I'm looking at YOU, Jangbi!). The new name bridge seems to fit Tyson especially well, since in the last few games he appeared to be a walkover.
And here's the shocker. I predict ACE to win this. YellOw, Ruby and Much have shown a deep hunger for wins, and when they do not choke worse than Really currently does, ggaemo, M18M and Firebathero (Insert big question mark here) might be enough to triumph over the limping MBC crew.
Without further ado:
Set 1: Much < Empire of the Sun > Saint
Set 2: RuBy < Grand Line SE > Sea
Set 3: firebathero< Circuit Breaker > HyuN
Set 4: ggaemo< Aztec > Tyson
Set 5: YellOw< Fortress >Light
Set 6: M18M< Benzene > Jaehoon
Ace Match: < Central Plains >
ACE wins 4-2.

An engagement in the middle later made the rest of the game one-sided. Unless you enjoy SC2 style battles, wouldn't recommend.

Watch this game. Excellent play from winner which led the loser to desperation, even though he played well. Also, knowing who played, you can't call yourself a BW fan if you don't watch this.

Wrong prioritizing leads to epic disaster. Commentators go crazy. You could as well. Check it out if you have time.

This game felt like SC:BW tower defense. Regardless of whether you do or do not like tower defense, WATCH THIS GAME.

Meh. And I stand by that statement.
+ Show Spoiler [Game 6] +
Alright, I guess. No recommendation, though.

This should have never happened.
