please fix Cool2die / chivu / moonzerg nationality. And group H is just ... lolz ...

Savior and Chivu should switch 
|
Fuck Why does the group Testie is in ALWAYS gotta be the GoD
|
Oh dear.
Poor Mondi can't take a break with his group selection last two years.
It's obvious they have seeding for the Korean players, so why not the top foreigners?

hahaha imagine being chingikhan when reading the group drawings for the first time
|
too many zergs in group h. savior should play terran
|
China 1st is Phoenix66,should be in group C and F91 should be in group E
|
quite a few zergs. I thought the foreign scene consisted of many protoss

well still though, assuming the koreans are auto-advance, which group of foreigners is stronger? lamer F91 notforu goody + USA 2nd place, or maix dreiven phoenix or thuoclao white-ra ex?
|
Top 2 from each group advance to 16 man tournament. Groups are bo1.
|
well usa #2 could flip it around but i definetly think its easier to get top 2 in lamer/f91/notforu/goody than 1st place of maix/dreiven/phoenix or ex/whitera.
phoenix is very good (better than f91 i think) and dreiven and maix are both solid, depending on the matchup. and i think ex/white-ra are both better than anyone in group C

Why the fuck are dissy and testie always grouped in the same group. God damn that's so dumb.

Fix it. 2nd Poland is not Fosken, it's Draco. This group drawing sucks.. So many mirrors in the group stage.
Group H is so strong. All of them went to the finals from the 1st place in their countries. Well.. almost all. Some random guy seems to have passed from the 3rd place. Clear underdog.

Group B and H = LoL?
Zergfest...
Group H = death...
|
Savior is soooooooooooo gonna own everything up...
|
|
|
Won't Savior be TvsZing? If so, Mondi might be able to take advantage of the lack of play from that area of Savior.
Otherwise Testie better come up with some boxer shit of protoss to take down that monster T_T.
I want to see someone try to 4pool Hwasin or Savior LOL!

OMG GROUP H TESTIE MONDRAGON SAVIOR REASON hehehe

maybe we'll see that EASY button. actually with testie and lots of zvz, savior faces one of the tougher groups he could get. i don't see him losing zvt to any foreigners; but i think it's possible, although still unlikely, that he could drop a game to a novel protoss strategy or some randomness zvz.

that's what he said pretty much after wcg nationals. he thinks if he avoids the koreans he'll have no problem
anyway it could be bad for him. there's a lot of zergs in his group and taking a map or two is easy zvz - sen did it, so can mondie/reason. and theres 1001 cheeses for testie to do pvz, or if testie goes zerg, more unpredictableness.
anyway i think we've learnt from last year there's always 2 spots up for grabs in these groups of death

I believe so too. If I wanted Savior to lose to a foreigner, I would place him in this group.

True.
On Paranoid Android and Peaks, Savior will not lose ZvZ.
His only chances to lose ZvZ are on Gaia and Azalea.
And those are still only chances.
Albeit slim.

Maybe at Peaks one can get a BO advantage like Sen did twice at WWI. And he did win one of those games.. Or you mean the only chance to win is unscouted 4-5 pool?
|
savior did not look invincible zvz on peaks in the chinese/korean tournament, he got behind early in 2 zvz's vs chinese players and was forced to rely on his muta micro to pull him back in.
obviously its incredibly unlikely for him to lose, but not impossible.

Draco has an easy group, Dreiven has a pretty tough one, a lot will depend on the maps, it seems. And Group H is just pure imba.

group H is sad.. really. Testie Mondragon and Reason let alone Savior should all be in seperate groups. Hwasin will rape the fuck out of his group same with Stork... and Savior will surely qualify. They need to make this fun and have 3 koreans in 1 fucking group, how would theylike that? hahah korea would be up in arms.
|
too bad they won't put people from the same country in the same group... but ya, Group H is kind of retarded... but I guess if they were randomly generated, it was bound to happen that there would be an imbalanced group.
|
Dreiven in hard group and second player from Poland is Draco (not Fosken).
Why there are only 4players in groups: A and E ? Could some players join or this is closed ?

H is a death bracket. : o

He is able to scout his opponent immediately on both, plus he did practice a whole lot on peaks.

More player positions = reduces the skill involved builds and increases chances of the luck builds.
ZvsZ is actually a skill-based matchup on maps like Paranoid. But there are so few of them that it doesn't matter, thus it is highly luck dependent.

ZvZ is often luck dependant. If you want to defeat Savior, you must have at least BO advantage (12pool vs 9pool, 12hatch vs 12pool). But in ZvZ on Paranoid Android, you see opoonent's BO from the first minute of the game. And noone wants to have his build countered. So all ZvZ's here have somewhat similar builds like 13expo hatch->13pool or maybe double hatch before pool. And it's all about skill.

Interesting that we WILL NOT see either Stork or Hwasing among the winners of the WCG if each of them takes the 1st place in his groups or each takes the 2nd place in hisr group, since in 1/16 will be the following matches:
1) 1st place of E vs 2nd place of A
2) 1st place of F vs 2nd place of B
3) 2nd place of E vs 1st place of A
4) 2nd place of F vs 1st palce of B
in 1/8 the winner of 1) will face the winner of 2) and the winner of 3) will face the winner of 4).
So the only chance to see all three koreans between winners of WCG is if Hwasin and Stork take DIFFERENT places in their groups: one of them has to be the 1st, the other - the 2nd.
|
It looks there are few zergs in my group ;0

The same argument works with Germany: we will see all three Germans among winners of WCG only if Goody and Mondragon take different winning places in their groups.
The same with Russia: we will see all three Russians among winners of WCG only if NotForu and Androide take different winning places in their groups.
The same with China: we will see all three Chineses among winners of WCG only if F91 and Pj take different winning places in their groups.

lol group D trinidad & tobago ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
ChingizKhan will obviously top group H.
|
I dont understand why they show the group drawing whereas there are still players not qualified. It's not the case but for example if the Group D was easier than the C, one of the US player could freelose in the final in order to be 2nd so that he got the easiest group ..
anyway sad that testie, mondi & savior are in the same group ..
and I dont see Draco ?
|

omfg group h is erm... tough?

But nevertheless Trinidad & Tobago will win WCG finals
My prediction:
A #1 Draco #2 Midian
B #1 Greece (Satanik?) #2 Breakdown
C #1 F91 #2 Notforu
D #1 USA (Idra?) #2 Androide
E #1 Hwasin #2 Dreiven
F #1 Stork #2 White-ra
G #1 PJ #2 Moonzerg
H #1 Mondragon #2 Testie (ok this one is more wishing )
|
honestly, who seeds the players? mondi got cheated again this is SOOO gay.
|
Group H is just sick. Reason is pretty fucking good, too. The only hope for one of the three guys ( mondi, tesite, reason ) is, that two of them dont train at all, because they are so unhappy about the groups and let it all just go.. 
Imho its not that testie and mondi are the clear favs to advance at the 2nd place. Its a toss up between Mondi, Testie and Reason. But we shall see.
The group with Goody is pretty decent, too.
|
Its been too long since you've posted Coach :D
you always have neat icons
|
Oh boy... ReasoN versus Zerg MUs are not good as vP and vT.
I really felt bad for him and ChingizKhan.
|
Reason is a good player but i think it would we a real suprise if he advances 
|
F91 is in group E , not C.
|
FUCK FUCK FUCK
4 players that I wanted to advance are in the same group
fuck!!!!
It should be Stork who should be in group H!!!!
|
hahahahahahaha  group E, F, and L...(me want Korea!!!) Is it just me or the brackets are risky? As in, we might not be able to see Korea 1, 2, 3 or 1, 2, 4
HwaSIn, Stork, sAviOr, GOGO!! ^-^
Not to mention 'kuya' Byron/SteelHeart for Philippines! Hope he does well, hehe, my turn next year
btw, WCG's gonna be on my birthday week  If Korea wins, I'll think of it as Korea's (or just Hwasin's) birthday gift to me, haha.
Group H, 4 Zergs and 1 Toss...STACKED

It's best of one. I'm sure Savior will lose to someone, I would think Mondragon, since he's such a smart player.. Testie could only win with a cheesy proxy or something like that. I think when playing BO1, it's a very different game, one has to play more defensive, and most likely fall back in economy/tech. I saw the replays from qualifiers and Mondragon plays a very different z vs z game, based more on skill (he's now at around 200 apm vs his old 130ish ) than in outsmarting his opponent. I'm a Savior fan, but I always liked Mondragon as a player. I wish both of then the best of luck !
|
The foreign scene is all about Zerg... the pro scene all about Terran. That's pretty weird, but fun. I would watch ZvZ any day instead of TvT though. Firstly there's no chance they will last for 40-60 minutes. Secondly I just loooove muta micro. (H)

mondi has been at 200+ apm for several years

I for one hope we actually see someone compete with savior. I'd love nothing more than for a korean to not make it to the final 16. Best of luck to both mondi and testie.
|
Hwasin or Stork have to get 2nd in their group. Otherwise they will meet in the quarters already. And Savior in the semis afterwards. If one of the two finishes his group second the koreans could end up at 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

Just noticed that Testie only really needs to practice against one race if his concern is groups.
As for Koreans getting 1,2,3, a good system (Single elimination wtf) should allow that to happen.
I don't understand why WCG is not double.
|
WTF?! WCG NEEDS TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE BRACKETS!!!
A -> obviously Midian and Draco are the favorites
B -> Breakdown and Lowely are favorites but Greece #1 could change that I guess...
C -> Actually a pretty good group depending in part on who USA #2 is...
D -> ROFL? Androide and USA 1st are the obvious favorites though iirc ass isn't too bad... but at this level, he's a non-entity
E -> Hwasin and f91 duh... anything else is an upset
F -> Stork and then either White-Ra or Ex... Stork will probably go without a loss
G -> ROFLMAO, weak ass group. PJ... Italy has some decent players I think, but nobody who is a real entity at this level iirc and the others in that group... unless they've improved like a whole hell of a lot (which I doubt), they are just fodder for better players to march through
H -> WTF?! Savior, Testie, Mondragon and Reason all deserve to make the round of 16 imo. One of them should be moved to group G and one of them should be moved to like B or D or even A or E wouldn't be THAT bad (3 real big names in 1 group isn't too bad)
|
Group H testie and mondragon are good, Savior will loose against both of them
|
mondi and testie are fucking good. savior is savior.
|
If all korean finish first of their group, a foreigner is going to be second of WCG
|
Group C is the most balanced imo and probably the most "interesting": no kors, and there are no clear favourites ( well perhaps phoenix ).
Group G is a joke.

I gotta disagree with a afew of your projections.. like Androide should be favored to be first in his group not second.. and greece wont make it out of prelims >_<

Those are my predictions & my personal opinion.

Time to make a (not so) bold prediction.
A Korean will purposely drop games to finish second in group, so Korea can go for 1, 2, 3.
National pride is stronger than personal pride. Koreans in international events tend to drop games to help out fellows. [Midas has done it, Reach has done it, others I can't remember have]

Koreans won't purposely drop games to finish 2nd in group. And if they do drop a game. It will be extremely hard for them to make 2nd. Plus groups game play is bo1.

testie is gonna kill every zerg with the afro!

Coach, they always drop games to make the brackets as easy for them as possible so that Korea may do the best as possible and get the most players to the finals.
They've done it every year when necessary.
I doubt any of the koreans want to go through a Hwasin / Stork / Savior bracket to the finals.

Testie and Mondragon plz!!
I wanted to see Savior vs a foreigner in the final, but now fuck Savior!!

Ya, I think the koreans are pretty well known for purposefully dropping games in order to create a better chance for them to go 1/2/3 ...
Didn't that happen in 2004 with like Midas dropping a game so he wouldnt have to face Xellos until the finals?

Hell, Midas vs M1-Cobo?

Silent_Control vs Reason?
What about enlargedtestie vs Silent_Control?

Reach vs Leg was also dropped game (in IEF or something)
It happens when brackets necessitate it. I don't see anything wrong with it - the Koreans believe the best players should win, unencumbered by things like bad draws. It is a perfectly sound ideology.
Coach - if losing one game makes it hard to get second.. how else are you supposed to get second? If it's round robin, second place is going to have to lose a game. I don't understand your logic.

Holy shit I read group H and laughed, best of luck to Mondi and Testie, but Jesuszerg is going to clean up.

the koreans will lose on purpose to avoid that shit.
Theres no way both finish #1 in their groups unless they arent allowed to know the results of the other group during play (which wont happen unless they play on the same day or something id imagine)

WCG would make brakes with the 3 Koreans, 1st Germany, 1st Canada, 1st Poland, 1st Russia and 1st China in different groups.

think about it this way. better chance for foreigner to go further if korean get knocked out in group stage than having to face them in bo3's later on

yeah but it wasnt always fake when koreans lost to foreigner, I remember in 2003 when fisheye beat elky, grrr, and then lost to ogogo 1-2 in final

If Advokate vs Midas was the TvT on Korhal, that was a dropped game. I believe it was 4 rax 1 base m/m, while just sitting in base, vs Advokate's actual real tech build of tanks and such. I dunno I didn't see the game, just word of mouth.
Because 2004 was the year no foreigner even took a single game off of a korean except my 1-2 vs Foru if I recall correctly.
Hellghost's vs Ogogo game was dropped as well.
None of my games were drops, because Control actually had to fight hard for 2nd place in that group and wanted 1st place to avoid xellos.
I don't know about potto or 6club.

The drawing system is stupid. And koreans have lost more games than these mentioned here. Out of my head I recall bykli beating eassay in 2002, Nazgul beating Gundam and Jesse beating Doggy in 2001. I believe that there are even more wins than that.

Considering sata is dead inactive AND his worst mu has always been vs Z I would easily pick Break/Lowely over him and wouldnt feel too incredibly uncomfortable saying eddy will win him as well.
|
sata is not dead inactive, just not in crazy mass gaming mode he gets in some periods. I guess he'll mass game before wcg however. on the other hand, he plays only for his personal enjoyment, never craving anything more, so I guess it's also a matter of mood for him too.
|
I don't know but after looking at the Korean WCG ceremony, it is not outrageous to think that the Korean might drop a game this year if it help all 3 to advance. Those guys are on a mission. I remember that OGN caster was like "don't even think about coming back without the three medals guys!" Koreans can be extremely patriotic and often individual will sacrifice for the greater good. If coach says drop, anyone of the 3 will without a flinch, wil drop a game.

he did beat ogogo at dahlia of jungle, IIRC.
hg @ 9h
ogogo @ 6h
ogogo opts to expand at his gas expo, that expo wasn't close to his main, so hg goes there with marines and scvs and Ogogo cancels it, after that he builds his 2nd hat at his ramp then hg and ogogo do "a micro battle". after few seconds hg gets his marine on ogogo's main, ogogo types out. gg.
ogogo vs hot second game was at chow chow(that was the first game that I saw dark swarm, looked so cool (btw, I started playing sc in the end of 2004 ;p), the other game I don't remember.

You kinda messed up on the korean names. The last name is Jin, Song, Ma. The nickname should go between the last name and first name. Like Ma "Savior" Jae Yoon, or Jae Yoon "Savior Ma.

Predictions are useless, so here are mine ;-)

Group A:
1) Draco
2) MidiaN (wooo!)
Group B:
1) sataniK (why not?)
2) Breakdown
Group C:
I want to be wrong because I want iNcontroL to advance. Hopefully it *is* a mistake and he isn't put in this relatively tough group. Anyways...
1) Phoenix
2) Lamer
Group D:
I think the first two seeds should be an easy pick in this group, but the order in which they finish won't be. It could go either way.
1) Androide
2) Nyoken
Group E:
1) Hwasin
2) F91 (I don't know why, I guess experience counts for a lot, despite the fact I feel some players in this group are 'better')
Group F:
So which Korean will thrown a game? My guess would be Stork, as he should easily win vs. anyone in his group when he chooses to (no zergs). On the contrary, SaviOr should play to win in his group since it is so open to upsets. Hwasin should also throw games, but I think Stork will since doing so puts him in the best position bracket-wise. So...
1) White-Ra
2) Stork
Group G:
1) PJ
2) MoonZerg
Group H:
Mondragon could advance here too - but soooo much ZvZ =[

Nice.
I'm still rooting for iNc. NUMBER ONE INCONTROL FAN

You just CANT be happy to play in such a hard group. I mean seriously.. this is clearly the 2nd hardest group. No single weak player.. T_T
|
I don't think losing on purpose at the WCG USA finals just to be in an easier group is worth the amount of money Incontrol would have lost.
|
would be funny if the koreans decide to throw a game and then lose .. lol
|
That's not possible if you lose on purpose only the final game of the group

I'm form Trinidad and i've never even heard about Lloid Assing, wow ! Not that it'll matter anyway ;]
|
Does anyone know if JohnRambo got his Visa? I know that Malaysia is having a lot of trouble getting visas approved, FoRza (NFS), Si_Jali (FIFA) and PaulYan (Wc3) have all been rejected, plus somebody told me that all of the players have been rejected but that might be sensationalism.
That also goes for players like Thuocloa and ChingizKhan because both countries have had trouble in the past

group h should be interesting..except for the fact that its a bunch of ZvZ..which i find kinda boring to watch
|
wow mae jae yoon has all Z in his braket and i hopefully that his zvz wont affect him
|
It'll be extremely hard to take mirror ZvZ away from Savior IMO because micro plays such a HUGE part in the matchup while "cheese" is much tougher to pull off in the matchup except for maybe a 5 pool.
|
if Testie goes random, and randoms Z in all of his games, that group will be perfect
|
liquibet these games or at least the important games from wcg?
|
omg did savior and hwasin already play? at what time?
|
Canada only sent one player this year? :O Anywhere I can get info/reps of WCG Canada?
|
It's really cool that JohnRambo got to advance to the next round. I love watching his TvT's.
|
what the hell did nyoken do ?? sigh
anyway nice to see satanik advancing :p
|
