Jaedong andMovie Group B Pure and ZerO Group C Calm and EffOrt Group D Stork and Flash It looks like all my favorite players have a chance to make it out of the group stages! XD People keep ripping on group B, but ZerO and Pure are both pretty fun players to watch. I really hope we get to see some JD/Flash action this OSL (with flash coming out on top of course). I don't think many of the Terran players will make it out of their group though...sadface for loss of diversity | ||

Calm, Fantasy and Effort are all border S/high A class players And at least one of them will be eliminated. Stork looks like the only one who can take a game from Flash in group D. I expect both Flash and Stork to get out of D 2-1. Jaedong got this easy. Group B seems to be more even in term of skill level. Kinda sad thought i wanted Effort Calm and Fantasy to make it to the next round and i just started likeing Shine with his stomping over Bisu and all .... Well whoever makes it i would be happy . | ||

I wouldn't be surprised with any of the possible results from Stork (0-3 to 3-0) | ||

Yeah but that's because FlaSh was being stubborn and wouldn't build turrets. lol | ||

Doesn't mean it's not actually the easiest group :/ I think Fantasy is in real trouble. His situation is like FireBathero sticking himself in an all protoss group. On second thought, he'll be fine. | ||

Jaedong, Movie Group B: This group is similar to Group A, but without the big name of Jaedong. Instead, the talent is more evened out, and predicting the winner in this group with certainty is damn near impossible. The group's seed, YellOw[ArnC] has been slumping something terrible this season, and with his recent displays of futility, it's hard to see him advancing here. This is a point in ZerO's favor, because the underrated Woongjin zerg's weak ZvZ should get a pass, while his superb ZvT and ZvP will be more than a match for Hwasin and Pure. The second spot in this group will likely go to the winner between these two, but if Yellow[ArnC] plays the spoiler, he's most likely to topple the terran. Pure's play has been impressive lately, he has a slight edge for the last spot in the round of 8. ZerO, Pure Group C: This is it. The unquestioned group of death, is not only filled with three of the top 6 or so players in BW, but it will provide fantasy OSL TvZ action, and EffOrt and Calm facing off in ZvZ. This leaves Shine, a vastly overrated cheesy zerg, in the lurch, but all manner of things could theoretically happen here. EffOrt has an edge in ZvZ over Calm based on recent results, so I see him coming out of this group. fantasy's OSL form is too good to be denied, he should advance as well, his seed depending on his match against EffOrt. I'd give him slight odds to top this group. fantasy, EffOrt Group D: The last two groups are close to call, but there is only really one obvious pick for the winners of Group D. Both Flash and Stork have been in fine form lately, especially against zerg. type-b and Kwanro have respectable records in ZvP and ZvT, but both are nowhere near the big two here. If either zerg advances, it'll be a huge upset. Given Flash's current weakness in TvP, Stork is the likely first place winner here. Stork, Flash | ||

O.o It's like the exactly same situation with Hwasin's MSL group, except the terran is on the receiving end this time. With that said, you have to realize that 30% of Fantasy's losses to Zerg come from Jaedong, and he is 6 to 7 against Jaedong. With that said, with Calm and Effort in his group, this is pretty scary. Take out Fantasy's games against Jaedong, it raises his TvZ by 2 percent to 55.5%. | ||

In this he takes after Boxer far more than oov, of his two mentors. I was under the impression that fantasy was actually quite slow. In all of his replays, when he's coasting and there's no action - he's actually the slowest progamer I've seen by far. I don't mean this as a negative thing, in fact I find it awsesome that he can be a top player without meeting the apm "requirements" For that reason I think he's more like oov, but I feel he lacks the genius economy management that oov and Flash seem to have. Interesting observations though. I honestly don't really pay attention to APM that much; what I meant by him being a "fast" playing is that he's always pushing the game, pulling out the next tech choice, harassing, trying to be a step ahead of his opponent. The obvious contrast is Flash, who seems more content to harass a little, but sit back and build up. | ||

What accomplishments -.- That is by far the easiest group Group A minus Jaedong could be easier, but the "accomplishments" of all four players in group B sums up to all of 1 silver medal. thats it. | ||
