I think group C is the group of death. Group D looks pretty tough to as well. The up coming matches look great.

great groups. group A has a top 4 player from last season as the third best player, group C has avi and spx as the bottom two.. I actually think all groups are set up in such a way that the best two players will face in the first round - which does make them less predictable.

bonyth's group is the worst - aside from him - but it's not the best group for him, if you look at his bsl stats from previous seasons, his pvz looks a lot more vulnerable than pvt and pvp. hawk was close to knocking him out of corrupted cup, and castro is a very strong player, too.

Here's how Bonyth is going to win all his PvZ's in the Ro. 16:

1. Mine minerals and build probes
2. Get a pylon
3. Get a gateway
4. Build zealots
5. Rally zealots to opponent's base
6. Magic micro

(repeat until GG)
This is my signature. I love that I can have a signature here. I haven't had a signature since like 2008. It reminds me of the old internet. I wish I knew what to put here though.
