This format is really interesting. Being seeded in the lower part of the top 16 is actually quite bad, because you're forced to pick someone very good who's left over, even though you have a higher seed than them. But while the format is bad for these players, it seems good for the tournament by making up for the fact that the seeding is nowhere near accurate. With this system, there should be less heavyweight players knocking each other out in the first round than if the seeds were actually used.

I'm soooooooooo pumped up for this arena and i soooooo regret that i hadn't pay 30$ for whole spring. Still, it's definitely worth it's prize.

Read the rules, who the f wants to do that?

lol, would have been nice to have the wind-up, but was a good pitch of info.

Would be awesome if you could get some interviews on the decisions

It sounds like you were surprised about Idra's latest antics. I enjoy his rage immensely :D

Well, here in EU GoOdy always gets this massive fan support during lan events that let him beat Stephano and so on. But @ MLG we will not hear any "Goody, Goody, Goody". TvT was GoOdys best matchup for a long time. However, GoOdys TvT lacks some experience recently because of rare good Terran opponents in EU (thx Blizzard). I feel also bad for Tefel and Bly with this picks. Both definitly better zergs then Idra. Seiplo has a good chance to win against heart.

Good writing,

Oz will definetly crush any Protoss here tho.

why should he have lost confidence after overestimating himself in the series against PartinG? Iam sure he got over that, and will show us his excellent micro here.

Because he won his invitational bracket.

He was not seeded top 16. Thats why he was picked by Socke.

I hope this tournament bodes well for IdrA. I fear it is to late for him anyway but if he wins it may be the beginning of a resurgence.
