haha I wish I could've translated this for you guys But instead I sat my ass in front of my TV and got lazy lol.
Btw great translations Ramenstyle and Ilikestarcraft! And you guys who can't understand Korean are lucky, cause this MSL group selection was MUCH MUCH better than lasts (which was total crap btw, gay SKT players complaining how SKT players should be as far away as possible).

Isn't gay SKT players a tautology?

There is only one group of death, and it is group G :
NaDa vs FrOzean
RuBy vs Canata
Death for the viewers, I mean.
5 TvT in a row. Yes, TvT can be fun and exciting and what not, and I really can enjoy TvT. But simply not played by these guys. The only one in this group I like to watch play TvT is Nada, but with all due respect, he is not in a good shape these days. Frozean and Ruby compete for the Most Boring Player award, and Canata has been playing far from great for quite a while (except for the miracle he pulled to qualify for this MSL).
Otherwise, all groups are pretty exciting, and some are VERY promising.
The only player I can be almost sure will get out is Bisu, and probably Stork. Otherwise, most groups will likely show tough fights. The level is insanely high this year. This should be a great MSL.

EDIT: oh btw his win on gomtv as good as it was doesn't show anything that he isn't scared of Flash. First flash was sick (as the reason he didnt wanna take medicine) and the games were very close to be considered one sided. If you're playing to win.. you want your hardest competition knocked out. hence he's being a pansy.... not to mention that he just added another zerg in his group (a weak one might i add!..... though i wish mjy would get out of his damn slump) Just stop posting in this thread. did i hurt your mancrush? i voice my opinion.. don't cry about it, it isn't like i tossed words at you.
hmm, you made a good point in your first post on this quote chain. Bisu is not being a pansy by not adding Flash, he's being smart. Plus, add to that the fact that he already beat Flash, fans might go "oh he picked Flash because he beat him in GSI, he just wants to stomp at flash." and this can go either way, but maybe Bisu had other things in mind or maybe he saw that taking flash into the group can lead to misinterpretations. Plus, I think he added the Zergs in to prove his PvZ (which escapes me since his PvZ is just great). I haven't got an idea what happened in the group selection and why Jaedong was not in his group, maybe Jaedong wanted a piece of FBH so Jaedong dragged FBH along and Bisu let him do it.
Though a Flash-Jaedong-Bisu group would be fun...

Ilikestarcraft <3 <3 :-) Remember last time Bisu had a 3zergs group... it didn't end well. However, things are different now. Bisu will win, I only hope sAviOr will follow, and he will. When it comes to ZvZ I believe sAviOr's champion spirit will own Magma's awesomely bad ZvZ 35% and take out Zero just as easily. Bisu & sAviOr FTW of course.

That was soo awesome, but yeah, TvT is awesome, but the players in it are not that good now...
Nada is just out of shape, it'll be a real miracle if he pulls this one out, even just out of the groups. Canata has good TvT but doesn't know how to win.. Frozean and Ruby...oh god..I can't imagine.

If Flash/JD both fail, I want Horang2 to be Royal Roader My god the kid says "I just want 2 wins... Then I will be satisfied enough" deserves something. Not to mention he is called "The Reincarnation of rA"

He bring savior to him, so shut the fuck up plox.

OMG, JD has his hands full
Samsung Khan players are really lucky, FBH has a tough group but in his best MUs.

is it just me or did bisu just singlehandedly ruin this msl.
T_T was looking like such a promising msl too.
ah well hopefully fbh makes it out of his group

Royal Roader legend only applies to OGN though =[

I saw it on one of their MST's where they said and wrote "Oh he can be a royal roader" I was like "wtf did I just hear that from MBCgame?"

Stork is doomed!! yeay
The heart says;
savior, bisu
leta, lux
iris, fantasy
free, kwanro
upmagic, yellow[arnc]
jaedong, hwasin
nada, ruby
sea, forgg
|
I'm a bit worried about Jaedong. That's a pretty tough group he's in:
(T)firebathero vs (T)Flash (Z)Jaedong vs (T)Hwasin
Hwasin hasn't been at his best for a while but he's always going to be dangerous against Zerg.
