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.

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.

Of all the foreigners I think Ret has the best chance, but my pick is MVP. He may play Idra in Ro32, but I think he will win that and then TvT his way out of the rest of his bracket. I also think people are counting July out for no good reason at all. Moon is getting more hype at this point and July has a much better shot than him.

I dont think theres much hope for any terran player this time in the GSL. Im thinking protoss are looking pretty good to win it, I see alot of them take away games quite easily from top zergs recently. Protoss actually have a chance against zergs huge ability to mass expand late game, where as terrans early game strategies are usually a coin flip as to whether or not the zerg will lose.

If a foreigner zerg were to win this gsl it would be Ret. His play from what i've seen is just so so solid, and imo i think he is better than idra atm. As far as korean zergs go, I think Kyrix has the best chance to win, as his aggresive play is strong and he can also play the macro game.

I'm gonna go with what I said last time and say ZvZ finals again (noobzergs losing to foxer screwed up gsl2 predictions for me )

otherwise, i agree...it's gonna be another tvz final. though...I do think most of the zergs are gonna win their zvps tbh.

and i think that if one of the foreigner zergs can win a solid zvz series, then they will either win the whole thing or go to at least the ro4.

How sick would it be if the random player won the whole thing?

Anyway, hoping for Ret!
