I think that IdrA will make it out of his group.
He should beat NesTea unless NesTea does something weird or gets an advantage early on. I don't know how Lucky's ZvZ is but IdrA has very nice ZvZ I've seen. MVP will be the biggest obstacle but with IdrA being in Korea (and SlayerS at that) there's a fair possibility that IdrA wins.

Spot on predictions :D
Really enjoyable to watch the first set of Code S-games. The yearly ticket showing me it's worth already! Loving it! Felt sorry for Sen in the games vs. Boxer. (

MVP only has to prepare for one matchup in RO32. I think he won't drop a map. I hope Idra can get some wins, but this group ist just very hard.

Idra can make it out of his group, but the odds are stacked against him, the only silver lining for him in his group is that he's not playing MVP first. I can imagine him losing some painful games to MVP and then being tilted for his remaining games.
Since mutalisk became a more standard ZvZ style Idra has seemed fairly strong in the matchup, but its also Nestea's best matchup and while Idra will probably just turn up with a standard, but of course well refined, fast hatch into quick muta play, Nestea will have something special planned.
I don't know much about Lucky's ZvZ recently, Stephano dismantled him but he did say that he'd looked back at the matchup after that and improved, so I really don't know. I think Idra will beat Lucky, but unfortunatly that'll probably just win him another opportunity to lose to Nestea.
Nestea>Idra MVP>Lucky MVP>Nestea Nestea>Idra

Wow... amazing predictions!
Great articles to boot.

"MVP will be the biggest obstacles but with Idra being in Korea there's a fair possibility that Idra wins."
and this ladies and gentlemen is why foreigners are horribly overrated. 2 months of training does not make you able to compete with the overall best player in the world.

Although I agree with everything you've said, Idra has had MUCH longer than 2 months of Korean training. I also agree he can get out of the group, in 2nd of course. Lucky has shit tier ZvZ and nestea is extremely mortal atm.

December-January?
Unless you mean the training in his whole career. What I meant was Idra before December was a pretty good player but nowhere near the best of the best. Two months of Korean training isn't going to improve you so fast that you can compete with the world's best overall player.

Idra hwaiting. He's gonna show you all what's up.

Nestea having just lost his second casted ZvZ = advantage Idra apparently.

Jason Kelce injured his foot in final
Philadelphia Eagles C Jason Kelce (foot) suffered a foot injury in Week 17 against the Washington Redskins. He was on crutches and wearing a walking boot Monday, Jan. 2. He'll have an MRI Tuesday, Jan. 3. 'Worst-case, they say it could be Lisfranc,' Kelce said. 'But they don't think it's that.'
Kelce's injury was not mentioned by head coach Andy Reid after the game as the rookie played through the injury for the remainder of the game. Kelce woke up on Monday in pain and had difficulty walking.
Kelce said the Philadelphia Eagles had yet to identify the injury but that there should be a diagnosis by Tuesday after a magnetic resonance image.
"Worst-case, they say it could be Lisfranc," Kelce said. "But they don't think it's that."
A 2011 sixth-round pick out of Cincinnati, the 6-foot-3, 282-pound Kelce earned the starting job during training camp and started all 16 games for the Philadelphia Eagles this season. Barring the worst-case scenario, and the long-term rehabilitation period that accompanies it, Kelce will enter the 2012 season as the starting center.

Leafs place Dupuis on waivers The Toronto Maple Leafs placed forward Philippe Dupuis on waivers Monday. In 30 games this season, Dupuis has gone pointless with 16 penalty minutes.
Dupuis was unable to produce and wasn’t helping the league’s worst penalty kill whatsoever, making the move a no-brainer.
In 30 games this season, Dupuis didn’t manage to register a single point and owned a minus-2 rating to go along with 16 penalty minutes. This is one reason why the move was made
Dupuis was signed by a free agent on July 7, 2011. He had previously played with Colorado, registering 6 goals and 17 points in 86 career games with the Avalanche.
NHL clubs have until Tuesday at Noon et to make a claim on the forward. If he goes unclaimed, the Leafs can assign him to the Toronto Marlies of the AHL.
Dupuis was activated off injured reserve prior to the move, where he had been since Dec. 21 after suffering an upper-body injury.
The 26-year-old has been held without a point in 30 appearances with Toronto Maple Leafs this season. The native of Laval, Quebec was signed by the Maple Leafs to a one-year deal as an unrestricted free agent last summer.
In 74 games last season for the Colorado Avalanche, Dupuis had six goals and 11 assists.

Louis Delmas, Aaron Berry may back for playoffs
It's still unclear when Lions safety Louis Delmas will play next. Delmas, recovering from a knee injury that required arthroscopic knee surgery this month, didn't participate in drills during a portion of Wednesday's practice that was open to the media.
while Detroit Lions coach appeared Monday to deliver some good news about the team's health that safety Louis Delmas from a knee injury and cornerback Aaron Berry from a shoulder injury.
The Lions have a good team, and it's built to be good for a few seasons. It's not a one-year fluke. They earned their playoff berth with a 10-6 record. But there are deficiencies, some more glaring than others.
Coach Jim Schwartz, his staff and players must undertake a crash-course fix-up program to repair the gaping cracks that let the Green Bay Packers shatter their defense in Sunday's 45-41 loss.
Louis Delmas A player's value can be proven by his absence, and that has been the case with Delmas. The Lions need the starting safety back to compete against the Saints.
Delmas' value is not demonstrated by statistics. He hasn't intercepted a pass since his rookie season in 2009, and that's meaningless.
Delmas sets a high standard with his intensity that his teammates in the secondary have to match.
Delmas went out early in the loss to the Packers on Thanksgiving with a knee injury and missed the last five games. The secondary has not been the same without him.
Delmas was back at practice last week. The Detroit Lions will have a better chance against the Saints if Delmas plays.
