We got a former GSL-champion, a contestant of the 2013 WCS Global Finals, the best player of Proleague in April and the current champion of MLG Anaheim in this group. I think that’s enough hype. Here’s what you need to know about Trap, Bbyong, aLive and RorO.

Trivia
- [trap] was the winner of MLG Anaheim in June – it was the first time he ever won a tournament in Starcraft 2
- [bbyong] is a beast when it comes to Proleague – he was one of the five best players in both April and May. Combine this with his 9th place in Aprils GSL-season and you know about his current state
- [alive] played in WCS Season 1 Finals and Global Finals in 2013 but this year he lacks success
- aLive also switched from America to Korea this season
- [roro] won the last season of GSL in 2013 before it become part of WCS. In 2014 however he couldn’t keep up with the world class players and dropped almost 80 ranks in the World Ranking
- Trap and Bbyong are on their career-highs at least according to their World Rank. Both have never been higher up
- Trap and aLive once met in GSL Code A before – in February 2013 aLive won 2:1
- Bbyong has played each of his opponents once in Proleague so far – but he could only beat Trap
- Trap is in pretty good shape in PvT which is a good thing since two of his opponents today are Terran. In MLG Anaheim he defeated [polt] thrice and [keen] once
- aLive hasn’t won against a Protoss since February and against a Zerg since November 2013 – i am not kidding!
