As it is, even with ~140 players we don't get to follow that many of them. I wish dreamleague was televised like the high school league is. | ||

Ssak, who beat Flash Grape, who plays regularly in PL/WL and recently started winning Kwanro, who has to be a pain to play against | ||

So he didn't go to ACE, I guess he's just doing prelims since he still has his license. He's registered as a playing coach. | ||

Also, Pusan is back!? *drools* On a site note: Only one player making it through each group? Well then, I gotta feel sorry for Ssak, Grape and Kwanro. See you next MSL! | ||

So I decided to check the Courage applicant numbers for recent months. It seems that after hitting rock bottom in the December tournament, the number of Courage applicants has been steadily rising since January. Eventually I think it will return to the level of early-mid 2010. BW is slowly regaining the interest it lost in the early season. | ||

Also it would seem Shy is in the MST. Intriguing. He looks promising. And also Gogo PARALYZE | ||

Group 1 Tough group. By.Sun/Crazy-Hydra is 50/50. By.Sun gets played a lot for SKT, so he have to be talented. For that reason I think he can improve his PvZ enough to win this. Group 2 Skyhigh. I believe! Group 3 Brave obv. Group 4 I think Frotoss will beat Lomo, but it's a open game. Group 5 Horang2 obv. Group 6 Turn, Turn, Turn. Saint is not bad, but Turn have good TvZ. Group 7 I want to believe in Tossgirl, but Grape would own her. I think Grape makes it, although you can't count out Kwanro. Group 8 Movie is finding his form in PvT, so I don't think Reality will be any problem. Group 9 Flying vs FBH. It can be a close one, but I'm rooting for FBH. Flying will prolly make it since he's younger and hungrier. Group 10 ggaemo. Group 11 n.die_soo will barely beat Iris. Actually this is a very close one. Group 12 JangBi is a bit too Much for grandpa Toss. Group 13 Cute Angel have the highest potential, but don't count out M18M. Group 14 The noob group. Ruby will probably beat Alone/Princess. Group 15 Shuttle obv. Group 16 hero lol. Anytime might be able to stop him, but I doubt it. Group 17 Bogus in the prelims is bogus. Poor Hoejja/Nbs. Rock wouldn't make it in any group. Group 18 Interesting group with Pure, Yellow and Poor Man's Flash. I think Yellow still got it and will make it, but you never know about Pure. He's got high potential if he finds confidence. Group 19 Best lost to Orion last MST, so hero[join] have a good shot. If Best doesn't make it out of this he's definately over as a A-rank player. I think he'll make it though. Group 20 Hyun obv. Group 21 Mind lol. Poor Reach. Group 22 Hyuk will awesome his way past this group, although BByong can be problematic. Group 23 Tyson lol Group 24 Modesty for sure Group 25 Baby lol Group 26 Hiya lol. Poor Pusan. | ||
