Group D is death.

Other than that:

A: Sharp and Stork tbh (I would love to see Larva but it does feel like he's out of shape)
B: Bisu and Speed
C: Mini and especially Soma
E: JD and Rush
F: Barracks and herO

Who is BTS btw? I saw someone mention them as an ex-SC2 guy but forgot to ask who!

Man there’s such depth in ASL, most these groups there’s 3/4 who on their day could get out at least, and many it’s all participants

Sharp/Ample

Ample's TvP is simply monster mode lately. Definitely more of a heart pick than a brain pick, but I don't think it's that much of a stretch. I think Larva is a bit more of a threat to him since his TvZ isn't as strong, but I've also seen Larva struggle in the matchup in recent streams to the point where Rush is literally laughing out loud while sniping his mutas over and over.

Speed/Bisu

Confident in this pick, and I don't even think Bisu is very good nowadays. Speed is a guarantee IMO - just so strong in TvT.

Mini/soma

Would love sSak to go through, but I don't see it happening. Saber is a future threat in ASL I think but it's hard to give him the edge over these veterans given it's his first appearance.

Queen/effort

Simply picking the best two players. ZvZ group is wild.

Rush/ParalyzE

I don't see Mong getting through, so the main question is whether JD can do it. Honestly, my brain says it will be JD over ParalyzE for the same reason I don't see Saber getting through, but I'd love an upset.

BarrackS/hero

Only question here for me is whether it's BarrackS or RoyaL. Purely based on recent ASL performance, it just feels like RoyaL hasn't quite been able to cut it whereas BarrackS is a firehose of potential. I think it's his time.

I feel that Queen is going to choke so bad. Then he will hold his head for 10 minutes looking down and saying "haaaaaaa.....".

I will go ahead and say Stork, Bisu, Mini, ZerO, Jaedong and herO are likely to get eliminated from their group.

My personal opinion

Overall, excellent group for Larva.
Even against 3 T, Bisu is gone.
Saber is in the group of death, gg
I wont risk any predictions for group D, but go Calm
I think Paralyze is over-rated, so 2nd place will be between JD and Mong. Probably Mong. Easy group for Rush
Finally a good group for sOrry, and i hope TRUE can make it as well. herO is not playing well right now, and could get eliminated.

Bisu's group is insanely tough, especially on these maps.

Some of your predictions are indicating that you still think this is 2020.

I just look at group C and get a little sweaty. Fan me, someone.

You got the Gas Station Terran, aka Mechanic Terran, chomping on a 3 day old piece of a gum, doesn't bargain, will absolutely overcharge. He knows people look down on him a little, but it's your car in his garage. Can you fix a fucking engine? Didn't think so.

But then you have Mini, BGH, with his fuckin safari hat and Sako S20 rifle, beige pollo on beige high rise shorts, tall white socks, heading into the jungle for some soma panther meat. He looks like any old hunter, albeit on the nerdy side, and on top of all that getup a deck full of aces up his sleeve, including claws that rival the panther's, and martial arts skills that would make Steven Seagal in his prime look like an unborn teletubby.

Like it does look scary when you have that epic cinematic shot of the panther through the leaves, maybe with a little David Attenborough narration—and anyone expects the hunter to get his ass killed, especially for wearing shorts like that.
But the hunter is only appearing to look a little weak lately. It's all part of a greater tapestry. The mankillers spot what they perceive to be weakness, become overly aggressive, and the Sako S20 cleans up.

The hunter, instead of running into the forest like Arnold Schwarzenegger, covering himself in mud like a little bitch, walks right on the path. The panther, not realizing he's up against an Aikido master who will use his own aggression against him as he charges in and then hurl his ass back into the woods like an empty box, sees the hunter coming down. The panther waits for the whistling beige on beige afternoon snack to pass. The hunter's back is to him now. The panther jumps out without a sound, not a leaf disturbed. The hunter turns, fingers on his left hand stiff and curled to intercept a paw, the Sako in his right swinging around to line up with the head. But it's a panther, and his Aikido does shit, and the Sako misses, and the panther bites his throat so he can't even scream, and tears back and forth until the hunter is completely still, his head and neck like a smashed peanut butter jelly sandwich at the base of school cafeteria garbage can, that a kid didn't want and now he hates his mom even though it tastes fine like that. The panther stomps out the last few warping in photon cannons to the saddest violin you've ever heard, and all the probes pop like popcorn, and the hunter's dead left hand posthumously twitches Morse a single g.
