Nice series overall
I think KT is just really unlucky - with that roster they are definitely in the top 3 of Proleague, they just don't seem to have the consistency of SKT or Jin Air - Flash slumping, Zest slumping in ace matches, and while their t2 players are strong, they're just not quite as strong as the t2 players of those other teams, who are really stepping up (Dark and Dream (who have already graduated into t1 players) and for Jin Air: Cure, Rogue, and Trap (who is on his way to t1 it looks like))
If at least 2 or 3 out of the following happen:
Flash recovers his usual form Zest recovers his usual form TY somehow gets back to his 2014 ability Life doesn't catch the post-GSL championship slump Stats graduates to highest tier
I would expect to see KT at the top of the rankings of the next 2 rounds. Only question is if they will make final playoffs - and they have fighting odds against Samsung due to Samsung's abysmal r1, and no other team (ST-Y, MVP, Prime) is consistant enough to beat out KT in the long run.

Unbelievable stuff happening today. Even worse, he send Zest AGAIN for the ace match and not Stats who is the best player of KT atm. Maybe he thinks proleague is a popularity contest
AFAIK the line up was decided days before the gsl finals actually happened so the coach couldn't know if life won or lost his match. There's a reason why recent champions / finalist often lose their team league game right after. Either they celebrate or got discouraged by loss, either way they would be tired and lack prep time.

Well JinAir didn't have a problem with Maru out lol. I can't blame them that badly, I bet KT wasn't expecting Maru to come out so Zest was the best option there. If they knew that Maru would come they obviously wouldn't have sent Zest who is weakest in PvT.

A good year is relative for a player like Zest. When you hit the peak that he did last year everyone expects more of you and you look 10x worse if you don't continue to keep playing that well. So while he has't been doing bad(he did just win IEM), people expect more of him because he has the ability to be so dominant.
