Hopefully Nada has been practicing his TvP and Tester has been practicing against all-ins vs. all races.
It's easier not to.

If Jinro gets taken out in first group, on top of that by Idra, I will rage smack somebody.

A, B, F, and H look to be the most interesting. Can't wait for Jinro vs Idra.

There are several easier groups, depending on which players you'd replace idra/jinro with. Not lucky at all really.


Somebody will soon count up the points each group achieved over GSL 1,2,3.
I am pretty sure Jinro/Idra group scores pretty low.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/GSL_Rankings


Thanks for that link. I just copied it straight into Excel, added the group for each player, then sorted and summed. Idra/Junro are indeed in the "easiest" group if we use the GSL Code S points as the determination of skill.

It's clearly not 100% random how they made the teams.

The top 8 players are all in different groups. Players ranked 9-16 are all in different groups.

Then they roughly scattered the bottom 16 players, but roughly made it so that the rankings are mirrored (not sure how else to decribe this). ie: rank 1 paired with rank 32, rank 2 pair with 31, rank 3 paired with 30. It's not exact, but looks like the groups with the best players also have the worst players, and the other groups are all kind of in the middle.


i dont really think the points are very meaningful. only becos the amount of points you get for winning for example is frikken enormous, waaaaay more than like RO4.

and i dont think sum1 who won is necessarily 4x better than someone who made RO4 etc

Not all, but most groups are worthlessly done imo.

Oh well, hope the games will be fun.

Poor NesTea, he'll have 3 matches of all ins every game.

Wow, I hope those groups were randomly created.... cuz they sure like to put teammates against each other... and both foreigners in the same group is lame.

this is a funny post ^^

Tester is the anti cheese man so he probably will take all those games into mid-late game. Then it depends on how well the opponent is in that stage :D

As I posted in the other thread, whoever was complaining about the GSL brackets being rigged can now sit down and be quiet. This is what happens when it's completely random, it's fair but not always pretty =/

It seems that Genius, Boxer and Tester are the only good players who are going to have to practice all three matchups (although to be fair, Boxer probably doesn't have to practice to beat Hyperdub, and same for Genuis vs Anypro. On the other hand, MVP only has to worry about TvZ and Nestea can devote all of his time to practicing ZvT stopping worker all-ins.

Yea i agree with Bill Murray. Group D, while not having any of the perceived best players, has a really solid set of players making it pretty unpredictable. To me, that is the most interesting group.

I'm probably like the only guy who thinks Tester has probably every MU in his favour seeing all 3 of his opponents are all well known aggressors/cheesers which Tester is probably one of the best if not best Protoss who can handle those pushes ^^ and even having a strong mid-late game lol.
