Even with check-in periods occurring 30 to 60 minutes before the event there are always players who don't show up for personal reasons or more enticing events to participate in (such as the GSTL). Connection problems, lag, and scheduling across three continents further compound the issue. It would be hard to argue that JimRiSiNg's run through AGL-June was nothing short of lucky, collecting two byes and two forfeit wins over two very formidable opponents. This however, raises the question, just how will JimRiSiNg fair in AGL-August? He's recieved a decent seed and has been playing exceptionally well in the WCS so we can certainly expect some sparks from this Mexican Zerg. Will it be enough?N/AWBR1: ByeWBR2:2-0ZabroWBR3:2-1HyunWBR4: giX 1-2LBR6:2-0MagicLBR7: giX 0-27W-5L (12 games at 58.3% winrate)3W-2L (5 matches at 60% winrate)1-2 (33.3%) | 3-4 (42.9%)(N/A)2-0 (100%) | 4-1 (80%)If there ever was a darkhorse waiting amongst the top 8 from AGL-June, it would be giX. Taking out one of the best Korean Zergs on the scene, TSL. HyuN, is no easy feat and should be commended. Falling to the losers bracket curtousy of eventual tournament winner IceCream is no trifle either. Despite having a first round bye, giX had a rather difficult run through the winners bracket having to face two Koreans back to back and then falling to 4th place finisher, SeoHyeon, yet another Korean. As with the rest of the top 8, giX is separated in his own 8-player bracket so giX wouldn't meet any of his vanquishers until at least WBR4. Although the potential for a rematch against TSL.HyuN has the possibility of occurring in WBR3!WBR1:2-1qxcWBR2:2-1EroSenninWBR3:2-0MagicWBR4:2-1SeoHyeonWBR5: puCK 0-2 T:LBR8: puCK 1-29W-7L (16 games at 56.2% winrate)4W-2L (6 matches at 66.7% winrate)2-1 (66.67%) | 4-4 (50%)1-0 (100%) | 2-1 (66.7%)1-1 (50%) | 3-2 (60%)Normally, players like puCK would expect an easy round or two before having to play against their equals. But, as every player who has played a tournament knows, at any moment a bracket can turn against you and pair you against the most insane gauntlet of players possible. In the first round puCK went toe-to-toe with the multitasking bandana-Terran, qxc. In an intense series puCK came out on top and proceeded to defeat Erosennin,Magic, and LighT eSports newest pick-up and 4th place finisher, SeoHyeon before falling into the lower bracket to IceCream. Suppy would be the player to knock puCK out of the tournament but not without puCK playing one of the best series of the tournaments. While other players cruised through the bracket, puCK wasn’t given a single easy match. With his skills and the tenacity he showed, puCK may just have what it takes to place well again in AGL-August.WBR1: ByeWBR2:2-1DaisyWBR3:FFWCaliberWBR4:2-1SuppyWBR5: KawaiiRice 0-2LBR8: KawaiiRice 0-24W-6L (10 games at 40% winrate)2W-2L (4 matches at 60% winrate)0-1 (0%) | 0-2 (0%)1-0 (100%) | 2-1 (66.7%)1-1 (50%) | 2-3 (40%)After KawaiiRice left Fnatic, he partnered up with his former manager, Xeris, to recreate the powerful Brood War presence of LighT eSports, except this time in StarCraft II. Well known in his early days of Wings of Liberty for his Supply Depot push-ups, KawaiiRice has been consitent presence on the professional circuit making appearances in MLG, IPL, HomeStory Cup, and being a huge ACE for his CSL team. AGL-June had a rough start for Kawaii as well, having to play ESC.Daisy in the very first round followed by a walkover on Caliber.LighT, Suppy, Catz, and SeoHyeon. Kawaii played the majority of his games against the top 8 of AGL-June. KawaiiRice has not taken any huge tournament wins under his belt, he is no stranger to the tournament scene and should always be feared because of his immense amount of experience. Kawaii's bracket doesn't have any particularly difficult opponents to face until WBR4 where he has the possibility of facing off against Sage or Suppy.WBR1:2-0ImixWBR2:2-0DaisukiWBR3:2-0BoyoWB4: SeoHyeon 1-2LBR6:2-0MaSsanLBR7:2-0giXLBR8:2-0KawaiiRiceLBR9: SeoHyeon 1-212W-4L (16 games at 75% winrate)6W-2L (8 matches at 75% winrate)2-0 (100%) | 4-0 (100%)1-1 (50%) | 3-2 (60%)3-1 (75%) | 5-2 (71.4%)SeoHyeon is one of the most familiar faces amongst the crew at ALT StarCraft. Playing in the very first AGL as well as diving deep in Playhem tournaments, SeoHyeon is an online warrior. He practically defines it as he placed high in three other AGL events and has placed well in several other online tournaments. SeoHyeon originally became one of the most consistent players for vVv before making a short stop at CheckSix and then eventually winding up alongside KawaiiRice on LighT eSports. Boasting one of the highest win rates by games (75%) of AGL-June, it is only a matter of time before SeoHyeon starts making huge splashes on major pro circuit events as he possesses raw Terran talent and we're happy to offer up the AGL as that starting platform.WBR1: ByeWBR2:2-1NeziWBR3:2-1JsungWBR4: Suppy 1-2LBR6:2-0DestinyLBR7:2-0JimRiSiNgLBR8:2-1puCKLBSF:2-1SeohyeonLBF: Suppy 0-213W-8L (21 games at 61.9% winrate)6W-2L (8 matches at 75% winrate)1-2 (33.3%) | 3-5 (37.5%)1-0 (100%) | 2-1 (66.7%)4-0 (100%) | 8-2 (80%)If this tournament was played two months earlier, few would know who Suppy is. The MLG Spring Championship in Anaheim changed all that. Suppy qualified for WCS North America and was the top placing American player in MLG. Named the MLG Break Out Player of the Spring Championship, Suppy has caught the attention of the competitive StarCraft II scene with fierce eyes. Evil Geniuses' newest pick-up and possibly the man to dethrone IdrA as EG's best Zerg player, Suppy is a long standing community member doing write-ups for ESEA amongst other acitivities. Suppy also played the most games out of the top 8 from AGL-June. Suppy tore through a grueling 21 games and had a win rate of 61.9%. Suppy fell early on to KawaiiRice but would fight his way through ROOT.Destiny, JimRiSiNg, puCK, and SeoHyeon in the Losers Bracket. Easily the most difficult run of any of the top 8 players. With a lot of momentum already behind him, AGL-August may just be Suppy's tournament.WBR1:2-0BonkWBR2:2-0JimRiSiNgWBR3:2-1InoriWBR4:2-1EiferWBR5:2-0KawaiiRiceWBF:2-1Ice CreamGF: Catz 2-3GFES: CatZ 1-315W-9L (24 games at 62.5% winrate)6W-2L (8 matches at 75% winrate)2-2 (50%) | 7-7 (50%)3-0 (100%) | 6-2 (75%)1-0 (100%) | 2-0 (100%)Some players make their living by gluing themselves to the meta-game. They gain their success through superior execution and consistency. The singer, team owner, comedian, and professional player known as CatZ, on the other hand, thrives on something far more intriguing. Famous for his eccentric playstyle, including the use of Nydus Worms, in base hatches, and off-kilter timing attacks, CatZ stands a robust opponent who is not to be taken lightly. That’s not to say CatZ cannot play standard: his macro is nothing to laugh at. CatZ tore through this tournament, defeating TSL.Inori as well as Ice Cream in the winner’s bracket finals and coming within a game of winning the event. If there is any player in this tournament with an insaitable bloodlust for victory, it would be CatZ.WBR1:2-0ImytWBR2:2-1IntenseWBR3:2-1KomaWBR4:2-1giXWBR5:2-1puCKWBR6: Ice Cream 1-2LBF:2-0SuppyGF:3-2CatZGFES:3-1CatZ19W-9L (28 games at 67.9% winrate)8W-1L (9 matches at 88.9% winrate)2-0 (100%) | 4-2 (66.7%)2-0 (100%) | 4-1 (80%)4-1 (80%) | 11-6 (64.7%)Coming from the famous oGs team under the identity of Illusion, IceCream had the chance to practice with players like MC, Nada and Supernova. Now playing for the North American team It's GoSu eSports, IceCream finally has the ability to really stretch wings and show what is he capable of. Compared to the rest of the top 8 is also one of the few players in the tournament that didn't have the privlege of recieving a bye or walkover. Although he fell to CatZ in the winner’s bracket finals he would have his revenge and take out CatZ in two best of 5 series for a total of nine spectular games.
