These groups are soooooo stacked.

Of course some of these groups are more than other, but there isn't any group in there that I'm like: "Oh, X player should pass this group easily".

This season is gonna be some crazy StarCraft2.

HuK will have a tough time. I don't know if he is going to advance from his group. I don't know how he is going to beat Inca. If he beats him, he will probably face Rain. That would be the easier choice. So, he has to win his PvP against Inca, else he might have to face July, which would be bad.

Jinro has to prepare for all three matchups, which is not what he likes, I bet. He can make it, I have faith.

EDIT: Maybe Jinro just prepares for TvT and TvP and just speculates that he wins and Nestea wins the first game. That would be risky, but might give him a better chance. On the other hand, Clide and nestea are about evenly matched, I'd say. Hard to predict.

These groups are awesome, but I feel bad for the clan stacking. All the groups seem equal, and I think the new faces from Code A are amazing with the likes of Supernova, LosirA and Alicia who all really performed well in both the GSL Last Season and the GSTL. I really am looking forward to them, along with HuK, July, MC, NaDa, San, Jinro and MarineKing. There are no true upsets, except for IMMvp missing out. Overall, I think this season's gonna' be a blast, and I hope Code A will be the same.

Group D is going to be a fantastic watch. That's a tough break for whoever doesn't make it out. I'm also glad to see that Jinro and Huk have workable groups. Not easy at all, but I could see both of them doing well.

Foreigners are in a tough group. But I have to say Code S is getting stacked in general with the Code A / S system weeding out the bad Code S players and receiving the Code A monsters like Losira, Supernova and Alicia.

I still don't get why people are complaining about Bo1 in Dreamhack with ActionJesuz 6 pool'ing out of his group but not complaining about Bo1 in Code S Ro32. It is really unfair to the players of this (Code S) calibre.

I don't get it... variation?

The three races look pretty evenly represented here beside group B

I don't think people care what color skin someone is if they are the best

People want to watch the best play and atm the best platy in the GSL

I guess I just don't share your concern and find your post mildly rude

I'm extremely excited for group C. The way LosirA's been playing, plus the solid play of at least two of the others. Very high probability of something epic.

Jinro's gonna need to learn a couple of good 1base strategies, his weakness in the first few minutes of games is pretty well established. It's extremely helpful for all of us TeamLiquid fans that he's in such a macro-heavy group, he may get a chance to get into a couple of long pool games (pool play tends to turn confident players toward conservative strategies, could make macro play more likely).

July v Rain will be hilarious. July has amazing ZvT, and Rain just isn't all that good (nearly got bounced out of code A last season). After that match, though, July has some work to do to prove he's capable against Protoss. If Huk can out 4gate InCa, I like his chances to get to Ro16.

I might just skip Group B entirely, TvT is so predictably dull (especially when MKP isn't base-trading).

It's testament to MC's bravado that he's followed through on his promise to work to eliminate his coach, but TheWind is certainly good enough to beat either Polt or SuperNoVa. With 3 oGs teammates and Polt, gotta like a pair of teammates to get through that group!

With the incredible talent pool we've got in code A this season, I hope they've got some good casters lined up!
We're here! We're queer! We don't want any more bears!

HuK seems to have a better chance than Jinro.. based on the groups imo.


I dissagree. Huk probably can't defeat July, and PvP is his worst match up and Inca is very very good at it. He'll probably defeat Rain though.

I see Jinro defeating Clide, San is 50/50 in my eyes and Nestea doesn't seem so untoutchable as he once was.

Have to say though, our foreigners might just lose in the groups stage. Code S is packed with talent.

Group A sucks for oGs, talk about team kills. I think HuK can take Rain without TOO much trouble, but PvP is iffy and he won't want to beat InCa, so he'll have to beat July.

Pretty sure Jinro can beat Clide, but Nestea and San might be trouble.

Wow, the Code S is getting more and more stacked with good players.

TheWind will be known as the coach who stays in Code S forever. LOL.

Jinro makes any group a group of death just by being in it. San is clearly gonna 4 gate him on a bigass map where he FEs, due to being a clever bastard.

Thoughtless by Polt to pick Supernova if he did, now he'll just get squeezed to 4th because he gave TheWind the opportunity to throw in matches to advance his guys.

Jinro's in a group of death but really all the groups look extremely difficult, it's a sign that the weaker players have pretty much all been weaned out of code s. Should be a good season.

Both groups D and E are ridiculously competitive.

Zenio most be wondering why the gaming gods decided to punish him :D. No matter who goes through, there will always be upsets. My bet is that both Nada and MKP move on.

As for Jinro, he's probably gonna make it out, since he is the most consistent player in his group. I wouldn't be surprised if NesTea ends up playing Up&Down again.

I don't see Huk beating Inca or July. He should beat Rain tho.

Jinro's got a hard group but i think it's possible, I'm mainly worried about him playing San. Jinro could beat Clide and even Nestea but I'm worried about his TvP
Ganzi beat me without stim. Ostojiy beat me with a nydus. Siphonn beat me with probes. Revival beat my sentry-immortal all-in.

foreigners fighting nevertheless~

He said that he wanted TheWind to focus on coaching more instead of playing in Code S. As much as I like MC, I want TheWind to beat him. It would be so funny.

HuK can and most likely will beat Rain, but July and Inca... I don't know man. I hope he can make it.

Jinro.. he has some skilled opponents ahead of him, hopefully he is prepared.

I think the previous season code A players will shake things up

A: MC Supernova
B: Byun CS
C: Losira Hongun
D: mkp alicia
E: San Nestea
F: Check Killer
G: Anypro Virus
H: Huk July

Group A: MC + TheWind
Group B: TOP and Byun
Group C: Losira and....Kyrix? I want to believe!
Group D: Alicia and MarineKing.
Group E: San and Jinro or San and Nestea
Group F: F is for Fruitdealer, and I want Check to advance, but Lyn is more likely.
Group G: Ensnare and Trickster. If anypro wins, he will somehow still look uninspriring.
Group H: July. I was about to say "Sorry, Huk", but with Rain and Inca in his group, it's possible. July/Inca is still my Liquibet, though.

Oh wow, pretty sure I could make it out of Group F.

Jinro and HuK have really difficult groups. I dont see either of them taking first in their groups but hopefully second instead of third. HuK has a nightmarish group for his own playstyle IMO. Inca probably has some of the best PvP if not the best in the world at the matchup... Julyzerg is unpredictable and just "gets it". Rain is unpredictable, but I think HuK's all-in defense is strong.

Besides the foreigner groups the one im most interested in is the one with kyrix and losira. I think those guys are capable of knocking out two protoss and silencing some of the zergs QQ.

First time in a long time, I believe FD "could" survive his group to get to Ro16.

I don't think Jinro will make it unfortunately, Clide v Jinro would be close, San is a decent Protoss now, and Nestea is Nestea - practicing for all 3 matchups isn't great either. HuK will probably place 3rd in his group.

The groups are more even this time around I think, with no overly-stacked ones. I'm going with:

Group A: MC, TheWind
Group B: sC, RainBOw
Group C: Hongun, Losira
Group D: MKP, Aliicia
Group E: Jinro, Nestea
Group F: Check, Killer
Group G: Anypro, Virus
Group H: July, Rain

Jinro's going to have a very hard time, but he's hwaitting so he'll get through. I doubt HuK's going to pass through his round (unless he pulls himself together and performs when it's needed).

Indeed he did. But, it seems to be a mutual agreement between the 2. TheWind said that GSL was taking away from his coaching. In fact he said he will stop when he gets knocked out of CodeS.

I think Jinro has a solid chance of making too the round of 16, Huk I think he'll be going to up and down matches tough group.

I predict Inca and HuK advancing in group H. I want to see July in Code A. I hope Supernova doesn't get rolled by Polt again... Polt should be in Code A for some time now, but he's not thanks to a qualifier.

If Jinro stays away from using MMM in TvP he should be able to beat san with Marines Tanks, and Banshees. To deal with phoenix all you need is mass vikings and tanks can handle colossus and gateway units.

Fruitdealer can probably beat Lyn and can definitely beat Check in a ZvZ, Check does not have a good ZvZ due to poor decision making with his units.

At the risk of sounding like a July fanboy, why do you want to see him in Code A? I think with his performance last season and in the WC Team League he pretty much silenced most of his doubters. What's not to like? He's so soft and cuddly and his Zerg is oh so fun to watch.

Now Rain...there is somebody I want to see in Code A.

I feel like a protoss will win this GSL. Protoss has been very strong in tournaments (focusing mainly on MLG and GSL season 5).

he was overrated then slumped a bit now hes coming out of it and becoming strong again. His main strength is his mid-game play, but hes not the most complete player out there and it only started to show after his season 4 GSL win.

I don't know, I just don't like him, and i rather have the others that haven't got a chance to place high in Code S to do well. I want to see Inca do well and its always better if foreigners advance because of all the time they invest in a foreign country.

July knocks out some of my favorite players from tournaments like Nada and MVP. I would like to see July vs MarineKing, that would be sweet.

tester doesn't seem to know how to make a robo to get observers to allow him to kill terran banshee's. Its pathetic how good his micro was in some of the early GSL and now he's been subpar with his overall play. I had really high hopes for tester.

I agree, Tester does not really deserve to get past Round of 16 in any GSL these days - his play has been stagnating and the series between sC in GSL March was just unbelievably brutal to watch from both players.
the farm ends here

I'm confused on why MVP isn't in code S, Is he not in the finals tomorrow? I ju8st started playing about a month ago and started watching the GSL this season is there some where I can find a break down of what players get in and how?

he was overrated then slumped a bit now hes coming out of it and becoming strong again. His main strength is his mid-game play, but hes not the most complete player out there and it only started to show after his season 4 GSL win.

GSL is different from the tournament he is in the finals of... the finals are for a special event put on by the GSL


Mvp is no where near overrated. He's top 3 in the world easily. Anyone who says otherwise is fooling themselves. In fact, I would say it's between him and MC for #1 atm, depending on how MKP does against him.

As for the groups, I feel sorry for Jinro. Hope he can make it through but San and Nestea are gonna be tough to beat.

MarineKing
Nada
Zenio
Alicia

Should be the most exctiting group. MKP became famous overnight with his incredible Marine Micro when he faced Zenio in Season 2 Ro8.
His series against Nada was also quite exciting and Alicia is definately on of the Top 3 Toss in the world imo.
Cant wait for GSL.

he didn't. he was the last to choose an opponent and huk is the only one left.

I see, thank you

Tough group with July in there, and if Rain shows his Code A performances, it'll be even tougher than what most people imagine.

Huk vs July. I would like to see Huk's actual potential in a rematch with July. I thought Huk could have at least put up a fight since I think Huk's strongest match-up is a PvZ.

I predict Huk won't make it out of his group. July and Inca probably will.

how did mkp become famous overnight against zenio...
mkp played a lot of zergs that season
he beat fruitdealer in ro32? and he didnt even play zenio he played kyrixZENITH in ro8
then he beat hopetorture and lost to nestea

Doh I didn't know it was going to be drawn this soon. Missed the video T_T. Sad that MVP and IdrA aren't there anymore but overall it looks like alright. Should be a good one, looking forward to Code A as well to be honest as opposed to last season. Even code B has Moon if I recall correctly lol... wish he we could watch him play but oh well, hopefully he makes code A next season.

Let's go MC. 3rd Title on the way!

Was HuK literally the last person picked by the last person picking?

How do you take that? Is it because people are afraid of his 4 gate prowess... or perhaps just kind of forgotten along the way? Ugh idk how to take that.

After watching Clide not select Huk, is going to make me feel bad for him when he doesn't advance to the Ro16. Nestea and Jinro should be walking away from that group.

Because he got knocked out last season due to bad luck and his weak TvP.

World Championship is not related to Code A / Code S.

He is still one of the top 5 players though.

Not sure, but I think Incas 4 gate > huks 4 gate. Might be in some trouble here.

Jinro really has struggled against Protoss lately, and NesTea is still probably the best Zerg in GSL. Whoever makes it out of that group will do so in style.

A: MC, SuperNova
B: Top/Rainbow??? Could be anyone
C: Losira, Genius
D: MarineKing, Alicia
E: Probably san/Nestea but could honestly be anyone
F: Anyone but Check
G: Trickster, anypro
H: No idea, Huk always seems like the underdog that does well some days but just chokes more often than not. Probably July and inca, but Rain is decent too :/

I'm counting July out off of how he played after that first loss to Mvp, but he will probably stomp the group.

Very excited!

Group 1-Mc, Supernova
Group 2-St_Rainbow, oGsTop
Group 3-Losira, HungUn
Group 4-Nada, MarineKing (I do believe it's going to be the upset group though)
Group 5- Nestea, Clide
Group 6-Killer, Fruitdealer
Groupe 7-Anypro,virus
Groupe 8-July, Huk(or Rain)

I don't think Jinro is making it out alive, but will stay in code S. Ileft San out because i feel (or hope) that Nestea will have a solution against San...

I feel that this season San will finally show people what he's made off. People still consider them as "middle tier" despite his performance. He will cause another huge upset again and shut people up once and for all.

True. In fact, oGsensnare chose this result. And no matter how he chose, huk will have 1 oGs player in his group. If Huk can beat Inca in the 1st match, he does have good chance to get into RO16. IMO his situation is much better than Jinro...

Is it just me or does it seem like oGs is kind of fixing group A. The Wind gets picked by teammate, ends up in group with Supernova, big oGs prospect. Then you have Polt... It seems like they oGs is trying to arrange for TheWind (who says he will retire from playing if he gets knocked out) to get knocked out while all 3 of them focus on knocking out Polt. I dunno I just wont be surprised if MC and Supernova don't see TheWinds "best stuff" when they meet in group play.

The groups are so uneven. C, D, E >>> B, F, G.
HuK has a realistic chance to advance with a bit of luck. Jinro, on the other hand, will have to play his absolute best if he wants to advance. I'm not sure if he can do it after what he has shown recently.

Looks cool, but what are the race proportions? (I mean P-Z-T, no koreans or stuff ) I fear that we'll see quite a few Terrans. And especially after such disturbing 1.3 patch terrans (including me ) might get in to hard position. I mean just recall previous GSL semi-finals... The dark side is being hard on terrans

Yeah, players like Idra who play exactly the same in over 90% of their games are definitely less boring than players like July or MKP who do the craziest shit and win with it.

Is there any news on what the Code A first round matchups are going to be? Or are we not going to see that until they put the GSL May page up?

I can not decide what groups will be more entertaining

Group H July and huk should also be a great PvZ

Group D Nada and marine king will be a great TvT

Group E I really hope Jinro can get out of the group but it is going to be a challenge

Will be interesting for sure.

I'm still rooting for Jinro, but it seems more likely he will end up in the up and down matches.

MC seems like he will have an "easy" group. Still, there could and will be some upsets. Im hoping that we will see some upsets with foreigners involved :>

Hopefully players like HongUn, polt, Byun, and trickster drop out to Code A or Up/Down they haven't been all that impressive. Even SC and Lyn maybe. Clide probably has no chance this time. I feel sorry for group D but im hoping for Nada and MarineKing.

Polt 2-0'd Supernova.

Tester/Trickster has always delivered steady results, despite not qualifying for open seasons 2 and 3.

Byun and Lyn have only been in code S once. Give em some more time before writing them off. Especially Byun since he had the misfortune of running into MC in the Ro16

I'd say HongUn is one of the top Protoss in Code S. I'd pick HongUn over San or Anypro anyday.

Byun is a sick macro Terran. Took out Zenio in a crazy game and made it into the Ro16.

Trickster is solid. Provides good results (even took out MVP in the Team League)

If there's anybody that hasn't been impressive, it's gotta be Fruitdealer

Why would those guys drop out? Hongun got to ro8 last season, so did SC if I remember correctly, and he came very close to beating San. Trickster always delivers solid results as well. Most of the players you listed are pretty solid, in fact.

I don't fear Clide versus Jinro, but san versus Jinro and Nestea versus Jinro are going to be tough for him.

What? All of those players are solid. HongUn is insanely good and has always been in every GSL and he's always made it past the first round if I remember right. Out of the entire code S Fruitdealer is probably playing the weakest at the moment.

good grief, players who have skill and variance in their play are boring compared to those who are childish? (IdrA of course, idk why mvp isn't in code S... )

To be honest I am not so sure there is a clear cut group of death many people are talking about I see many ppl saying group D, but I guess that is because the entire group is pretty solid, all 4 players are good but none have yet to really win a championship. (I have not watched the MKP vs MVP match yet so give me a break if MKP won).

I think this Code S is lacking some star power but I guess without MVP and SlayerSBoxeR but I think they will be back next season. Group B is gona be one long day... TvT always seems to drag out as Tastosis would say.. late game of 50 apm. haha.

Group A: oGsMC, oGsSupernova
Group B: sCfOu, Byun
Group C: IMLosira, MVPGenius
Group D: MKP, oGsNada <--- Group of death, I wouldn't be surprised if Alicia topped the group.
Group E: LiquidJinro, IMNesTea
Group F: FOXLyn. CheckPrime.WE
Group G: ST_Virus, anyproPrime.We
Group H: STJuly, oGsInca. I would love Huk to go through, but his form hasn't seemed great recently, hopefully he picks back up for this GSL.

Group F is why I dislike the GSL group picking system. I would say every player in Group D is better than the players in Group F, but 2 of them will be going down to the Up/Down matches.

I'm Canadian so im all for Huk making it at least to round of 16 to put the critics away who said he got in by "luck" (Tasteless brought this up during one of his games earlier this year) PvP is not a luck matchup once you get to this skill level i think MC vs WhiteRa proves that stratagy is huge and micro is everything and Huk has it. I just can't wait for July vs Huk for some super gosu force fields

Group H? Really?

July's the only 'group of death worthy' player in there, IMO.

It keeps getting better and better. I've been watching since GSL January, and I'm more excited every time.
I want to watch every group (of course), but Group B and Group F are not so fun. If those groups were both lost at sea and everyone in D and E advanced, it would be much funner.

I'm sad to say this, but inca will probably beat huk at PvP. It'll then be up to Huk to beat july twice. I really do not expect inca or july to lose to rain.

At least it's not like last season with the group of protoss. TvT is actually a very open mirror matchup.

How can you say that Group D is the group of death. Group E clearly is. Poor Jinro. He'd better advance!!!!!!

A: MC, TheWind (risky pick, it's Wind or SuperNova. I think Wind can beat SuperNova though.)
B: Rainbow, Byun (Rainbow had GREAT TvT in the Up/Down. Made me a fan of him. I think he'll knock sC or Byun back to Code A. TOP is screwed.)
C: Losira, Hongun (Could be Genius, he showed signs of a comeback in the Up/Downs. He's the last person to beat Mvp, after all.)
D: Alicia, MarineKing (Not gonna be close. Sorry Nada, Zenio.)
E: Jinro, san (I *hope!* I like both of them. Betting against NesTea is a huge risk though...)
F: Lyn, Killer (I like Lyn, I hope he does well. Not impressed with Check, and I really hope Fruitdealer goes to Code A)
G: anypro, Trickster (Besides anypro, all of the rest of that group could take the 2nd spot. It's very hard to sort those 3 in terms of skill for me.)
H: July, Inca (I want HuK to beat Inca, but I just don't see it happening. HuK hasn't shown the same level of play as most of Code S. I think he has a chance at 4 gating July, though that would make me sad. July hasn't had much success against Protoss.)

Anyway, should be a GREAT GSL. I can't wait. I can root for *both* Mvp and Jinro this season, yay!

Group E looks really, really scary. NesTea is my favorite player probably so I hope he makes it through, he has a decent shot at it. I also really want Jinro to make it, but looking at that group, I really don't know. Every player there should be in Code S imo, so those groups are scary.

MC's group is funny. He got to pick his group, right? Because its pretty funny seeing the most dominant player in the world vs 3 of the weaker players in Code S. If he doesn't make it out of there...

I also worry for HuK. He's in a pretty tough group for his first time. Hopefully he can at least get 3rd and stay up in the up and down matches if the day doesn't go well for him.

the only reason anyone cares about clide is because tastosis likes him so much. He hasn't done anything special for a while now. He's probably worthy of being in Code S, but don't act like he's on the level of the really refined players who have made it past ro8 consistently. Clide always leaves giant holes for his opponent to exploit.
If you're mad that someone else is brazenly trumpeting their beliefs with ignorance, perhaps you should be mad that you are doing it too.

B: lots of T in that group all with pretty solid TvT's. it will be hard to LB when the time comes...i'll be rooting for top and rainbow though :D
C: losira should emerge from this group handily...
D: alicia will do well in this group...hoping for nada + mkp though
E: jinro hwaitinggggggg. gonna be tough =/
F: sangho been disappointing as of late, but i hope he'll pull through. same goes for FD
G: tester been equally disappointing. gogogo hwaiting!
H: huk inca rematch! pretty excited about that. july's going be really tough for him if he hits him in group.
