Idk about group A, kiwi is weak in PvP and Socke is a beast in PvP. Might see something happen there.

Also, who is Antec?

lol why dont they learn how to spell socke correctly`?

It's not a mistake. He registered his name on MLG as Sockeh, thus his name is Sockeh in the articles.


So people don't call him "Sock"

I'm not really sure why NA people seem to have a problem pronouncing Socke. :lol

"Say it like socket without the t" Should be a simple enough explanation for even the slowest doofus in town.

There are more than 16 players, this is just a group match (for the top 16 seeded players attending MLG Dallas) that will determine where they will be placed in the Bracket -- Also Known As: Placement Matches/Rounds.

Because in English the E at the end of Socke would normally be silent.

The bracket size is 272. These are the top 16 players. Please read here for more information on how pool play works: http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/news/the-guide-to-pro-circuit-pool-play/

Pretty happy to see Kiwikaki vs Idra will be casted, good change. Bought my HD pass, I'm pumped. I think last years MLG tournaments were my favorite to watch... I dunno, I remember being the most excited during them.

IdrA's going to roll Group A. Group B, however, is going to be really interesting to watch, by which I mean Ret's the favorite, but weird shit can happen.

Group C's actually just insane. Difficult as Group B? Maybe not. But it's going to be crazy, given that you have a P, a T, a Z, and a Random. Entertaining as hell. I'm game.

And then Tyler's in Group D. G.G.

Did you say Kiwikaki's PvP is weak? Quite the opposite, I think it's his best match up above everything else. His micro is impeccable, as are his timings.

Maybe it's karmas way of making him finally learn to play the matchup rather than just blaming the loss on imbalance, rather than his own over-droning/lack of aggression/whatever.

More likely it's lack of top zergs, eliminating ZvZ.

Such a shame that Select has lost form, he was a beast at last year's MLG. I don't think he will be able to keep up with the improvements that other players have made.

Not weak, but definitely weaker than his other MU's. I think that is a general agreed upon view.

Didnt meant weak as in not good, meant weaker than his other MU's which is still strong... Yes his micro is amazing.
