Does anyone else see Center kicking ass again in this group? He was super impressive in Code A last season.

Flash had a tough group and narrowly missed out and sOs had the hardest overall group of the entire Up/Downs. All the other groups had players who had high Code S finishes or international tournaments, while the most accomplished player in Group E is finale. (Nestea's accomplishments were too long ago to reflect his current skill)

That and he had 2 TvP specialists in his group and had 2 PvPs on a map he never practices... and he fell for the Zenio strat...

Oh boy for once I predicted the same top 2 as TL. My liquibet is doomed. No but on a serious note good picks this time around. I think Nestea/Center might reverse around though. And since it is BO1 and Nestea is known for being highly creative at times he may even sneak into that #2 spot.

I wish Grubby had gotten this group instead of Huk, I think he could've made it. But really, if you have to add 'through an easy group' to your claims of 'making Code S', then you're devaluing your own achievements

. It's been a long time since I've seen Huk play at all, so I just went and assumed he'd declined in quality, but that's just a guess, I'm eager to see how he really performs. I'm always rooting for Canadian Protosses

.

Aside from foreigners though, I'm really hoping and expecting that Fantasy gets through. I've been a fan of him since I started watching pro-StarCraft back during Incruit. Then there's Nestea, but like Huk, that's more 'hoping' and less 'expecting'

Thanks for the quick recap (stuchio) and preview again (Waxangel)

I'm also curious how Center will do, especially as I imagine him, HuK, Flying and Nestea all to be able to take the 3rd or even the 2nd place on a good day - or placing 6th on a bad day.

Don't worry, he will disappoint in code s lol.

And Nestea - I really hope he does make it! You can never write-off a 3-time GSL Champion completely.

This really is an easy group compared to the others.

I'll take Fantasy and NesTea to make it through and then roll the dice with HuK for wildcard.

At last we discover Artosis' smurf TL account.

Fantasy will win the group because he's awesome. I'm hoping Huk can take second and show up all the people who keep saying he's no longer any good, despite still being as good as just about any other foreigner out there over the last year. Seriously: at IPL5 the only people that managed to take him down were the two last GSL champions in a matchup many are calling pretty f*ing imba.

Really tough to predict who's going to grab the code S spots, I'm guessing Fantasy and Center. I'd be harder on Fantasy, but his TvT is excellent so he'll be one of the few people in this group grabbing a game off Center. Huk 0-5, or 0-4 depending on how the brackets play out.
