Nal_keke made an impressive feat, beating Fancy and scratching go.go (1-2) is an impressive feat. I think the guy's still improving, one day who knows... Take note of BaBy, too. That kid's rising. Fast. Miz.Peace ain't a rookie - and we all know who ForGG is, and how much he has shaped his TvT up recently. And FBH out is like caressing all my wounds by the best doctor's in the world. Who the heck is Doochi? Sporting a great amount of 3 minor league losses and almost breezing through a group like THAT? Starting with beating free of all people when he's forced to play one match more? Wow. Midas - Welcome back! About Justin: I think noone really ever tried to go deep into this as he's come off as negative to most TL people (to me too, actually  ), but maybe he's just choking in the spotlight? (still, after this much time, who knows - it's just about his personality, nothing else). He may do well when the camera / audience isn't on  | ||

+ Show Spoiler [Day 2] + EARLY GROUPS Group A -  Lomo - Lost in Round of Four - Lomo, you suck! No pointsGroup B - RuBy - Lost in Round of Four - I'm not too disappointed with this result, Violet had a good chnce of emerging from this group. But still no pointsGroup C - fOrGG - Advances! - Him not advancing and not riding his momentum is nearly uncomprehendable right now. One easy pointGroup D - fantasy - Advances! - I thought firebathero would have fallen to one of the protoss players, but fantasy, being the baller he is, took down fbh's TvT anyway. One pointGroup E - Hwasin - Advanced! - Some players are blessed with easy groups. One pointGroup F -  Pure - Advanced! - After the last Proleague season, Pure was the obvious choice here. One pointFour points out of six possible. I'd say that's quite good, even if most of these group made for fairly simple predictions upsets can still happen. The two players who I didn't predict as advancing at least got past the first round. LATER GROUPS Group G -  s2 - Lost in Round of Four - I like Shark so I'm not too disappointed, even though he did defeat Boxer on the way I also blame ZvZ again. No pointsGroup H - Shine - Lost in Round of Four - Fuck you Pusan. And fuck you too Shine for not beating Pusan so that Savior could devour you in the finals. I really thought Savior would make it through. My reverse psychology didn't work. He was even ahead in the finals. For Savior almost getting there... I give myself half a pointGroup I - Midas - Advanced! - Welcome back to television Midas. You also had one of those easy groups. One pointGroup J - SoO - Advanced! - I made the right call in changing my prediction on this one. One awesome pointGroup K - LuCifer - Lost in Round of Four - Just like I made the wrong call in switching here. Casy wasn't supposed to beat a Lucifer. Glad that Hyuk made it though. I give myself 0.25 points for this oneGroup L - Justin - Advanced! - Nobody wants Justin to advance, actually from the OGN website it appears he has a decent amount of Korean fans that do; but none of us want him to advance. He still does a lot of the time though and we can't help but accept that. One regretful pointFor the later group I earned by my own counting: 3.75 points. Again I think I did very well here, especially since the last six groups were a little less straightforward than the first six. Again no one fell out before they could get past the first round. I also did better than the couple of you others predicting outcomes. I'll take pride in being able to do that. | ||

But, in some cases I took two players. T_T Only one of my second selections advanced though so quite even. | ||

The reason I counted myself as having done better is because I didn't choose two players. If I chose two I would have likely gotten a couple more correct, Hyun for sure and likely one or two others. | ||

Can people please stop saying that someone bases everything off stats from televized games just because he posted a TLPD record. It's getting annoying. | ||

Yah, that group was just complete nonsense. Lucifer loses at his strongest matchup (vT) playing against Casy whose vP is his weakest matchup (supposedly) Afterwards, Casy loses at HIS strongest matchup (vZ) against Hyuk whose vT is his weakest matchup. Apparently, logical outcomes don't apply to the offline preliminaries. | ||
