I've got to say, I was on GOM last night and no one had picked supernova to advance. He was around 5% while the other three were in the 30's. I logged in to vote for him because I feel like a lot of people dont know how good supernova is. He showed it in his matches and I hope he gets some more recognition because of it.

I think idra will go 0-3 or 1-2, can't really agree with anything in this article.

I think that the time spent with the highest concentration of high-level terrans (Boxer, Ganzi. MMA etc.) will give IdrA what he needs to defeat MVP. Also, if anyone is going to help IdrA beat MVP, it would be someone who already has (MMA). I really like IdrA's chances of getting out

Good write up. I still think the most likely players to advance are MVP and Nestea. MVP will not drop a match and Nestea's former zvz dominance will shine through once more. I do hope I'm wrong though. Everyone wants Idra to make it further in the GSL.

Damn people are quick to write others off. Nestea loses a couple games and he is slumping. Really boggles my mind that this is the logic being used.

I understand Nestea hasn't looked his best but not predicting him to get out of this group is insane

I am thinking MVP advances first, and lucky second. However, before I can be sure of the results I'm going to need Fionn's predictions so I can liquibet the opposite.

Nestea dropping out is certainly not unthinkable, but I haven't been impressed by the ZvZ of Idra or Lucky. Certainly, they're on a much lower level than Leenock and BboongBboong. I expect this group to play out in largely predictable fashion.

Regardless of whether or not Idra makes it through his group, I'm making the bolder prediction that Idra beats MVP. Waxangel underestimates his ZvT and the month of Korean training and MMA.

Sadly it was 3.3% to be exact

people said sen would beat jjaki too...in the GSL where nestea doesn't mess around(unless its huk), I don't see him losing to idra and he always loses to MVP in the third match...mvp and nestea to advance..but upsets do happen..*looking at you supernova*

you don't understand...if nestea goes 2 seasons without winning a championship..(second place at blizzcon and mlg invitational doesn't count apparently)..he's slumping

id like to point out that diamaga also beat nestea in the tournament immediately following the korea v world team tourney.
EDIT: he was actually the first person to beat nestea ZvZ in a televised match (according to Liquipedia)

wasn't that like...1 year ago where people were still doing scv all-ins and 4gates?

Surely you know how ridiculous this post is. IdrA is not good enough to beat Mvp or NesTea, and you actually think he'll beat both of them?

He's been doing badly for a lot longer than two months

Well, Idra isn't getting through this group, not by a longshot. Nestea will prove his worth once more and come out on top, whilst MVP grabs second place. Anywho, some awesome TvZ-action I'm sure of!

<3 IdrA I really hope that he does well tomorrow Im a huge fan. I reckon that IdrA and MVP will go through to the Ro16. With Nestea coming third and lucky last. Luckys ZvZ just isn't good enough imo

If IdrA advances out of this group I am buying a season ticket, so i can watch his matches at a reasonable hour.

MVP is going to advance, no question. Nestea's fabulous play has been faltering, so that leaves one question. Lucky or IdrA. This is a rare occasion where my head and heart agree, IdrA fighting!!!!!
