I have a feeling one of the foreign Zergs, meaning haypro/ret/idra/sen are going to win the whole thing.

Although, I think it really depends on how many ZvZ's these players get, as it seems that is one of the most unexplored match-ups.

I am fairly sure all of our foreigner heroes can take down any korean terran user, and I think ZvP won't be a problem really.

It's hard to make any other predictions other than that as a lot of the players are new, but I do think another Zerg will win GSL...again...

that is all!

hmmm...foreigner...jinro.......the only foreigner I forgot to mention ^_^, to be fair I said foreign Zerg here, though my intention was a foreigner lmao hope soooooo

looking for the big toss hero to upset everything.

I have no clue who...maybe the TSL toss.

As cool as I'd think that would be, I objectively don't see any non-Korean getting into the Round of 8 or higher.

I'm hoping that a Protoss makes it into the semi-finals this time around. That would be nice

That would really be exciting. I think ret has the best chance to do it, cause it seems they've figured out how to beat IdrA, and he hasn't changed much in his play.

I would love to see Genius emerge as a toss hero... but honestly wouldn't mind seeing another GSL toss fail so that we can get some free buffs from Blizz ☺☺☺

Unknown toss rolls through whole tourny with 1-2 losses in total. Balance is restored.

Any of the 'foreign' zergs will get ruined by Korean zergs like Kyrix, Nestea, Zenio, etc in ZvZ so no chance there.

yeah unless foreign ZvZ is better IdrA could meet the same fate as he did in GSL2 (as could sen/ret/haypro)

I think a terran will win this season.

I'm going with the opposite prediction. I really feel the GSL winner is going to be a P player.

Definitely going to be a Zerg player, so many great players, so many zerg players. Repeat of last 2 seasons IMO.

Well, you called it right the first time. I guess a zerg will win again.

Personally, I don't see Haypro being able to take the entire season, but I really don't know that much about him. I think Ret and Idra have the best chance of all the foreigners to take season 3. Of the Protosses, I really think only Genius has a shot.

But honestly, I'm expecting MVP to win season 3.

3 terran semifinalists, 1 zerg winner

I think a Korean Zerg will win, but it's really tough to say who. Since ZvZ is going to be an increasingly common and important matchup in this tournament, Nestea has to be a strong contender if you look at the way he wrecked TheWind and Zenio in GSL2.

The semis will be a combination of Terrans and Zergs once again imo. Genius is going to run into a good Terran sooner or later and probably get knocked out before the semis.

yeh, also I think that whichever foreigner wins a solid ZvZ series versus a korean zerg...they will win the entire thing.
