Suprising that he starts doing them now when blizzcon is nearly 2 weeks away haha He is doing pretty well in the online cups too, made it all three finals of the ones he played. Ofc I would always be hesitant to use online form as a predictor, and even moreso now when everyone is undoubtedly focusing on Blizzcon. Presumably they are just using these online cups as a way to hone fundamentals/standard builds. | ||

Presumably they are just using these online cups as a way to hone fundamentals/standard builds. They are likely just using online cups as a bit of extra cash, seeing how there aren't any major events until blizzcon. Most of them are probably just playing standard and saving builds for blizzzon anyway, so I wouldn't use the form there as any indicator. Then again, all the top 8 are doing great online right now anyway | ||

I'm betting Gumiho gets ranked below Neeb, maybe even below Elazer. | ||

GuMiho is a great player but kind of underperform since GSL win. Also a bit of inconsistency, one tourney played badly and next day in other tourney, played well again. I hope he will bring his A game at BlizzCon. Cheer for herO and soO. Non-Korean, cheer for Snute and Nerchio. | ||

Rogue and Inno are very evenly matched, I could see either one as #1. herO's results have a clear pattern. Brilliance at quick weekenders (ST1/2, Shangai), but failure at the bigger/longer running events (he did poorly in Katowice, SSL premier, and only made GSL playoffs once). I don't expect anything special from him at blizzcon. And I know I'm bringing my bias up again, but I think Inno beats out Rogue. Yes Rogue beat him 3-2 at ST2, but he basically got 2 free maps against mech (I don't think any terran can beat Rogue with mech tbh). If Inno was smarter and played bio I think he edges out Rogue ever so slightly That really isn't a clear pattern, herO was eliminated in the group stage of iem katowice which was played over a single day. Also Blizzcon is essentially a weekend tournament with a group stage the week before. If herO is ranked third or lower I don't see how you can argue that would be far higher than it should be based on form, herO's recent online results have been pretty stunning. | ||

Doing poorly in almost all the starleagues and then amazing in almost every weekender is a clear pattern. Obviously you can find exceptions but it holds true for most events Now although Blizzcon is technically a weekender, if you look at the actual time between matches it's quite long. Until you reach the ro4 you get more time to prepare than you might in GSL for example. You get several weeks to prepare for the first group, and even that is played out over three days (even in starleagues you don't get days between group stage matches). Then for the ro8 you get another week as well. | ||

At least a foreigner wasn't ranked #2 this time. Rogue can be justified to some degree Considering how strong foreigners are right now and they are stronger than ever, this ranking is ludicrous, but whatever :-) A Korean still has a good chance to win the event, but lower than ever before. | ||

Just my prediction though... games still has to be played... | ||
