The Koreans were always the favorites, and they always won, but there were some good games along the way. I personally am going to miss watching BW at WCG. | ||

I give group of death to either B or D, as a majority of the teams in those groups are fairly competitive. In group C the skill gap (otherwise known as the familiarity of the teams) between CDE and CLG CA and the rest of the group is too big. Predictions A: Acer B: IG C: CDE D: FTW | ||

Korea has 0 competition in BW. At most, foreigners can hope to win a single game, not even a set. WCG axed BW from their lineup a while ago. It's sad to be sure, but it makes sense. | ||

Most of the members (everybody but TRM) did. Since WCG goes by country and CLG, TSM both have canadian and Americna members, the Canada and CDE (USA) teams are both conglomerations of CLG, TSM, and Dyrus members. EDIT: oh right i saw team canada practicing in ranked 5s earlier today with Woong as a ringer... they looked horrible, barely won against some randoms. i hope they were not playing seriously | ||

TSM is not an all-American team and neither is CLG. CLG is a combination of people from CLG and TSM who are Canadians while CDE is a combination of people from CLG, TSM, and Dyrus who are American. CLG's captain is HotshotGG and CDE's captain is Chauster (although saintvicious makes most of their team's calls). I think iG wins this. With the US teams all doing good as well. The Korean teams aren't terrible but honestly they're not as good as the US teams from what I've seen in scrims. I don't know dick about the various EU teams so they're a wild card for me. Still I wouldn't be surprised to see iG take first and CDE, CLG, and Dignitas all take 2-4 (although this assumes two teams qualify from each group). 'nother edit: While looking at the teams more closely is the French team the only EU team that's actually people who routinely play with each other? The rest of the teams just look like some pro EU players with random high ELO kids as well. | ||
