Stats, who we saw defeat Lee Yoon "NaDa" Yeol in a 2-1 fashion during the offline preliminary, has shown a mean Protoss versus Terran playstyle this fall. With a 9-1 record with games from the two Starleague preliminaries, the Proleague map test and the Preseason Team Lineup matches so far he seems to be in good shape for the fall.
fantasy, dual silver medalist on the OnGameNet Starleague, will be going in to Survivor as the favorite albeit Destination favoring Protoss a little.
The second game of tomorrow will have Moon Sung "type-b" Jin take on the veteran Park Yeong "Much" Min. Much, who will enter his military training on October 26, is predicted to have a tough time against the hite SPARKYZ Zerg player type-b.
The Protoss player suffered a direct loss in the OnGameNet Starleague preliminaries to another Zerg - maestro - and his fate in the MSL might mirror last weekend's performance.
Group B
For Group 2, starting at 11:30, will showcase Jin Yung "Hwasin" Soo against Koh Kang "HoeJJa" Min. The STX SouL star has a good edge on the to-be-played map Byzantium 3, on which Terran more often beat Zerg during the offline preliminaries.
We will also witness Son Chan "BackHo" Woong play Park Jae "Hyuk" Hyuk, a match where BackHo, stardom alone, would be the favorite. However, his matchup against Zerg has been known for being very bad throughout the years. This year he does hold a 7-5 record against the Swarm, last seen defeating MBCGame's Ko Seok "HyuN" HyuN.
The winners from each starting match will play each other to take the first spot to the Round of 32. The losers will play each other, to then face the loser of the winners game. Winner of the final game will also advance to the next round.
The games will start 07:00 CET this Thursday, 8th of October.
