If Leenock is still playing god mode Prime has no chance. It'll just be a repeat of GSTL. FXO 5 - whatever number Leenock comes out
|
Do you ask the teams to provide you with the player roster they will be using, or do you just copy/past from the previous IPTL and from Liquipedia?
Wish you could do that extra effort for us team league fans and do some sort of team and player profiles :E
looking forward to this match; FXO to win.

looking forward to this match; FXO to win. Copy/past from the previous IPTL and from Liquipedia because VoidRay, Tree, Weekend left the team long ago and Kong, kAsyu never played in any league for a while too I doubt they are still on the team. They also list all StarTale players but half of them left the team or retired. The most fresh rosters can be found here but is still rather outdated.

How can they submit rosters if in recent FXO report it is said that Tree, Weekend and VoidRay have left the team but they are listed here? Or how for example KingKong can be listed on StarTale roster if he lives in Australia and plays for Xeria Gaming now?
|
I know the Prime one is outdated as well. afaik Aria has left the team (not 100% sure on this though) and I know 100% fact that Salmosa has left the team. he told me he left the team and didn't exactly have kind words about Gerrard.

Thx for the info it is so hard to have updated rosters when there is no information or news when and who left the team. It is like ST.Virus suddenly retired and there was no word about it.

FXO!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PUT UP A GOOD FIGHT!!!!

Prime need a sniper to take out Leenock
|
If FXO can field Leenock+GuMiho, the only player I see holding against FXO is Creator, which isn't that great considering Prime can only hinge their efforts on one player who is fairly vulnerable against Terran recently, and can be defeated by Leenock.
FXO 5-2 Prime

FXO 5-2 Prime Tear is good as Creator is, he just need to qualify for any tournament to show it. Also Tear sniped Creator in GSTL.

I don't think you need to worry about them, they are the heavy favorites as long as this was played recently.
It's cool that you're so passionate about your team though, all caps post ;o
FXO 5-2.

GSTL champions and seeker's team or not I believe in the byunjwa Byun 5-4 FXO

FXO doesnt need Leenock, except if Creator goes on a rampage.
GuMiho, Tear and Lucky are pretty much capable to take out Prime`s rather small Lineup

That's cool and all, but to be honest, I don't know how much you paid Liquid for their IPLTAC3 coverage but I'd be SHOCKED if it wasn't worth it. That ended up building just SOOOOO much hype. TAC 3 was easily my favourite teamleague event of 2012 (GSTL, KSL, EGMCSL and IPTL included).

StarTale picked up JKS and EG picked up Terius. Nice.
Also, Salmosa and AriA left prime. Tree, VoidRay, and Weekend left FXO.
