I wanna hear Idra's guesses, as his perdictions are usually on spot (except in-game, that's the opposite).

I'm guessing
1. mvp
2. nestea
I feel like nestea will be making a comeback (as in a kpop single, jk lolol)

MVP and Nestea are too good even now for Idra IMO, they should easily advance

On the other hand

I think its unfair the 3rd MC vs Supernova game got 0 stars when supernova played a very calculated cheese since he knows MC so well.

In my opinion MVP has a great chance of easily holding the first seed in this group. What i feel it comes down to is between an Idra vs Nestea match up competition for second seed. Yes Nestea defeated Idra in MLG Providence but it was 2-1 and nail bitingly close, and Idra has been in the SlayerS house now. Honestly even though Lucky is improving i don't think he will be able to get into 1st or 2nd seed though we could look to him for some upset matches, like when Lucky took down Boxer, Ryung, and MMA in IPL 3.
Some factors that comes down from the Idra vs Nestea match up is how great Idra's mentality can hold up, even if it has been improving you can clearly see when he is infuriated as his game play drops significantly.

ZvZ is of course a coin flip match up always so you never know

I am however going to overall give the advantage to Nestea mainly because he is an innovator for SC2 and possibly has some new ZvZ builds in store for Idra

.
My prediction
1.) IMMVP
2.) Nestea
3.) Idra
4.) Lucky

Thanks for the preview<3

Are you morphing into a yellow-skinned-spiky-scalped 10 year old?

ps: Shorts eating on cam, yeah?

Well lately Idra showed some great results in ZvZ against koreans, so I think he diffently got potential in this group. And his ZvT is some one the best in the world, and I think he can diffently beat MVP if MVP lets him get to mutas.

And as far as Nestea goes, I'm not sure that he's actually slumping, he's just had a bad period for some time, after being outside of Korea. And he also won his last ZvZ in KSL, so he isnt completely slumping. I think Nestea might surprise in this group, and I think that what truly matters is how well Idra's ZvZ is, because his ZvT is AMAZING! And he might well beat MVP, and if Nestea isnt slumping anymore he should be able to do really well in the ZvZ, and maybe beat MVP, it isnt like MVP is completely unbeatable. Then I think we'll see some interresting games.

My dream would be that Idra and Nestea goes through, but I doubt it, but it's diffently possible.

My prediction:

Mvp > Lucky
IdrA > Nestea
Mvp < Idra
Lucky < Nestea
MVP > Nestea

I really hope that Idra gets to face MVP, I truly do.

I want NesTea and Mvp to advance. I honestly don't trust this prediction especially after the results of Group B.

I would love for IdrA to go undefeated in this group... it would silence so many idiots. Probably would also create a bunch too, though haha. My money goes to MVP and Lucky, no one gives this guy any credit!

Lol Waxangel. Foreigner wins foreign tournament -> "October Revolution!". fOrGG loses in code S -> "GTFO Elly!" -> proceeds to predict MVP winning his group.

I am really cheering for IdrA. Sucks the only "true" foreigner in this years tournament (yes sen is not korean, but he still looks like them!!) had to get the hardest group. I'm not only worried for the fact that he's with such good players, but his ZvZ sucks.
Also a lot of the new maps in the GSL pool are hard to secure 3rd's on. He has a good 2 base muta play, but what im most worried about is if the korean zergs start cheesing with their 1 base ling/bling agressions.
