Can't help but notice the lack of Terran players who will go all the way to the finals.

Yeah, Supernova and most likely ForGG will progress from the group stages but the finals I cant see happening and it'll turn into a PvP/PvZ/ZvZ fest.

You do realize you left out bomber and mvp and puma? Its probably going to be a Z V T finalfest!


You didn't read Waxangel's writeup before posting this did you.

I wouldn't be remotely surprised if MVP didn't make it past the group stages, he's there for sponsorship purposes only not for personal gain.

I love the way these brackets work out. I am glad that extended series rule doesn't ruin any kind of finals.

I guess it's just for the qualifiers. I didn't pay and have the same quality

MVP already loose against adelscott. If he win against grubby, i take adel to win over MVP.
MVP should stay at home / hospital and get better, not travelling and looking bad in EU tournament for nothing.

I don't know how many times I've had to repeat this but here goes again:

Mvp, Nestea and Yonghwa went to Germany for gamescom as their #1 priority, IEM is #2. They are doing sponsor promotion at the LG booth which is the main reason why they are there.

I really want Bomber to lose now after how much Korean hype machine Waxangel hypes him. When was the last time he had a good performance?


he will lose, just not in the open brackets :O

Leave my boy alone!... but you're right, he'll probably stay up all night and yawn his way out with some really dumb losses... :'(

Why did MC give up WCS for IEM? Isn't WCS way more prestigious and presumably at least tenfold in prize value?

Makes sense, he's already lower bracket and isn't likely to make it through with the format / competition. IEM he's got a good chance at taking, WCS qualifying is a long shot.

Waxangel curse trlololol

That said, Mvp is terrible when he's not playing in the GSL



Well, it seems wrong cuz MVP just crushed Grubby / Targa who destoyed Oz and Ace out of this tournament.

btw you forgot MVP won

MLG Anaheim
Blizzcon 2011
WCG 2011
MLG Providence 4th (where he went through the whole tournament from open bracket and recording 26-5 overall)

MVP is also the MVP in the players by players tournament
Incredible Miracle for my life! :D
