LoLoL.. why so many ppl voted for group C to be the group of death? :-P There is no death there.. there are just 2 favourites. There can be no argument that group B is probably the one that should be called group of death. With 3 teams that have really big aspirations (MyM, d and iG)
In groups C and D there are favourites (Canada, US and France, Korea). Group A is another one that doesn't have clear favourites but is not as strong as B (Poland, Germany, Singapore).
And as of the winner.. I do not have as much confidence in US teams as most of you (58% votes for America's teams right now) :-P I think iG, EDG and France are at least as strong.. and there are few others that can make some surprises (which I'm eagerly waiting for).

Are you fucking serious? I can feasibly watch like, one of those. Good job WCG, broadcast at a time where a significant chunk of your audience (Europe) can't watch ANY of it. God WCG are just terrible at this.

It's an international tournament. Isn't expected that some portion of the globe is going to get fooked over? :X These games feel like the same times as SC/SC2 Leagues, no? :O

Well.. I'm from EU and I prefer 6am over 10am. At 10am I can't watch anything cause I'm at work. There is no 'best' option here.

No, GSL (which is in korea) starts around 10-11 am in europe usually (at least when I still watched - sometimes it would be like 6 though which sucked)

and 11 am is 3-5am if your american so they get screwed by those times. Asia/Europe/America are far enough that 1 always gets screwed by the times regardless of location.

You know the Olympics are an international event and they broadcast at different times for different countries leaving individuals to avoid spoilers if they so wish. Riot also has broadcast reruns of games in the past in case people missed them the first time. As long as there are easily accessible vods or reruns there isn't really a problem.

CLG, CDE or iG will take the whole thing, I think.

Yea. Especially since I won't be able to watch the first 2 days at all. Still am looking forward to it.

Millenium could make a good run, it's a nice lineup they have here.

Looks just like the show times for all the BW games I used to watch. It's a simple process to watch these: move your sleep time to say about 6pm to 2am, watch the games, then go to work.

I'm rooting for FtW and IG, but I suspect that either CDE or Dignitas stand the best chance at this tournament - HotshotGG seems to have some kind of problem with his teammates lately and I don't know how well he'll deal with Jiji and Elementz.
