GSL MARCH 2011 SPOILERS!
GSL has kicked off with the round of 32 and man what a surprising turn of events. Group A also known as the group of death featuring two champions MC and MVP and two great players in July and Hyperdub turned out to be the brawl we expected it to be. In my previous blogI predicted that MC and MVP would probably go forth to the round of 16 and I also thought that July might have a shot to advance, but not a big one. To my surprise, July actually 2-0 the reigning champion MVP! How would have thought that? Sure, that he would put up a fight yes, but actually beat MVP two in a row?
The last game I practically screamed when MVP lifted up his buildings just as July came rushing up the ramp with speedlings and banelings. That must have been one of the most unlucky timings that I have seen in the GSL. But here we are, MVP is in the up and down bracket alongside with Hyperdub who had no real chance this time around. MC dominated as usual while July brings down the champion in nothing but an upset. Congratulations to July.
In group B we also had a surprise with Idra announcing last week that he is pulling out of the GSL to head back home to USA. Thus Clide got a free win in his match. Zenio vs Byun was a sick 40+ min game which was eventually won by Byun so he advanced with only one match played since he would meet Idra next and thus win by default. Zenio was now forced to meet Clide and against my prediction loosed to Clide. So my predictions for group B was totally shoot down by Idra leaving and Clide actually getting the best of Zenio who I thought would advance.
Circumstances or not, I only predicted 25% right on the first code S matches which is funny, but that is life I guess. I hope my next predictions will go well were I have predicted that Liquid`Jinro and CheckPrime.WE will advance in group C and TOP and NaDa will advance in group D.
