Effort, Stork, Skyhigh and Flash have easy groups


Flash? Okay, should be easy. But Canata, go.go, and even sAviOr are all still a bit dangerous, Canata seems to be totally in shape right now especially.

Stork? Yeah, that's easy. Assuming Stork doesn't facepalm.

sKyHigh has to deal with Calm and the unpredictable Zero. Sea shouldn't be a threat but he is good when on form. Not easy.

Effort? Sucks to be Effort. He is the class of the group right now, but Luxury's ZvZ is nothing to sneeze at, Hwasin's TvZ is legendary, and HiyA's mech style is quite effective too. Group A is stacked.

My summary:

Group A: Stacked, as noted above.
Group B: OMGWTFBBQDRAGONFEST STACKED. Except that Kal and free kind of aren't as good at PvP as the other two.
Group C: Stork vs young stars, with Shine along for the ride. Two Terrans says Stork goes through. Kwanro... could be even more of a problem than last time, although possibly Stork has learned how to play on Carthage.
Group D: Sea vs young stars - will he actually go through for once? (Smart money says no, between Calm and skyhigh's vT, with Zero for kicks and giggles.)
Group E: Tornado, Berserker, Magic - and the Tiger, whose hope here is beating Iris and UpMagic.
Group F: The group of death if you can only pick one. Jaedong, Leta, fantasy, and Movie. Basically, any group that runs about an even 50% chance or worse of Jaedong not advancing is ridiculous.
Group G: This group fails to interest me. Flash either failteenCCs into destruction or goes through playing with only one hand, and the other place is a crapshoot.
Group H: Somehow Much is the favorite here.

I wonder if people here even watch recent games.

Have you seen Luxury play lately? It's ugly... he forgot how to do ANY matchup especially ZvZ. He's been really terrible lately.

Yes, I have. He sucked for all of Round 4, I admit. The OSL loss was bad - but he clearly wasn't prepared to deal with go.go's fantasy+turtle style builds. But go watch Violet vs Luxury - that wasn't Luxury playing bad, that was Violet beating out a Luxury playing maybe not at the top of his game, but very well. Luxury vs Saint? Okay, so Saint's ZvZ isn't good, but Luxury absolutely trashed him. As usual, I think we'll see the good Luxury show up now that starleague season is back in force.

CJ Entus has 7 of its players in 8 of the possible groups.

CJ fans, get ready to see your team CRUMBLE in the Proleague.

This is CJ. Effort sAviOr Kwanro Devil skyhigh Iris Move Much jjonga nbs With the team all split up like this, they can just go, "Hmm, who's practicing for MSL and who can play this week?" What's going to be more problematic is the few who qualified for the OSL as well...

Time for some completely baseless predictions:

Group A: (T)HiyA and (Z)EffOrt

Group B: (P)JangBi and (P)Kal

Group C: (P)Stork and (Z)Kwanro

Group D: (T)Sea and (Z)Calm

Group E: (T)NaDa and (T)UpMaGiC

Group F: (T)Leta and (Z)Jaedong

Group G: (T)Flash and (T)go.go

Group H: (T)fOrGG and (P)Pure

Jaedong is going to win this MSL!

Someone should make a poll about this
Like what's the 2nd most dificult group (the first is pretty obvious), or which group sounds like the most intresting one

Jaedong's group is sick, it's built for the sole purpose of sniping Jaedong. The only thing it's lacking is (T)sKyHigh unfortunately
