The only one I'm sure advancing in this group is leenock, he's such a skilled zerg player. It's just so beautiful to watch his play. After that I agree on DRG being placed last and he plays much weaker than before. Then I'm not sure how will the games go with mvp, hero and parting, but since I like hero I hope parting will place 4th then, though not sure how mvp will do, he always seems like one of the most strong terrans but anything can happen.

Completely agree, nobody has been as consistent at kicking ass as Leenock, and the unique flair he brings shows it's not just constant repetition, but a genuine understanding of how the game works. Sniper is too standard to handle crazy situations like Leenock does. Leenock taking first, Parting going to RO6.

Edit: Whoops, forgot two people advanced. Mvp takes third spot then uses his magical powers to somehow win it all

So frustrating of a game in game 1 in hero vs leenock. Hero has better upgrades, bigger army, but broodlords come out and he loses cause he attacks into them and doesn't have a fourth base.

Parting 3rd? You're nuts. Parting will top this group easy. Leenock probably second but Hero might surprise us.

When predicting the outcome of this group, the writer forgot to take race into consideration. Placing a zerg as nr5 in a group is just not happening.

It is so gonna be Leenock on #1, since DRG is not that great in form I think. Though I am absolutely not looking forward to these matches. Sounds strange? Well, I just dislike ZvX right now, since it's 90% 4base turtle'ing to the 1a broodlord infestor army. I loved those muta ling bling ZvT midgames. Nowadays, ZvT (ZvP as well, it all comes down to letting zerg get into lategame and/or neural vs. vortex...I remember that special game of HerO on 6base vs a 3base zerg).

I hope, Mvp will show is special tactics, and I'm looking forward to each TvP.But that's basically it.

The OP's doubt of faith in Dongraegu is disturbing. I think he has good chances to make it into the playoffs. He needs to prove all those naysayers wrong!
