I don't have much faith in Nerchio's performance in this tournament. I could be eating my words.
Group D is very interesting. Rooting for the Spanish bros but Parting will take the gold.

Predicitions.

A: 1.Snute 2.Grubby 3.Dream 4.TLO 5.Moonglade 6.Tarson (Snute been good lately, toughest call was for third between TLO and Dream, Grubby gonna make out for sure, it might be at third or even first, but he advances, having Snute in the group Grubby finishing second looks like a good guess to me).
B: 1. Parting 2. Mana 3. Lucifron 4. Bly 5. Tefel 6. Siphonn (Parting no brainer, then there are 4 good europeans, i'd rank them almost equally to advance, but slight nerf to zerg just happened making things easier for me, Mana over Lucifron as I believe mana is going to win their duel)
C: 1.Yoda 2.Nerchio 3. Socke 4. jookTo 5. Verdi 6. DieStar (Yoda is code S terran and that says something, then there is Nerchio, at first I wanted to put Socke at fourth but then I thought that it's going to look like another underrating of this beast + recent patch so I got him over jookTo).
D: 1.Vortix 2. Kast 3. First 4. Golden 5. Daisy 6. Paranoid (Yes I do really think Golden will not make it out, Vortix has been beast lately and Kas is a Beast in general I put him over First cause Kas is going to win against him no problem as Kas TvP is brutal)

Naturally, TLO would end up in Snute's group.

Would swap Socke and jookTo, Kas and First, Grubby and Snute (I bet Grubby is more than well prepared for snute).

I also don't think he will be in top form here. It may be related to the fact that he is studying (if I'm correct) and this is exam season :D

Man the Liquid curse is still in full effect, TLO ended up in the same group as Snute.

I'd say that foreign players have just as much of a chance to win it as the Koreans. Now let's just abitrarily extrapolate this single tournament's lineup to all scenarios, and pretend that foreigners are catching up to Koreans :p


hahaha

I still think the stadium looks really fricking cool though.

Liquid should really hire Grubby. That would really be perfect combination of fan favorites.

I think 6/7 koreans will get through groups and from there I don't see much hope for a foreigner in top 4 lol.

Very cool to see people like TLO, Tarson, and Moonglade there. Should be interesting to see if they can compete against this field. Go TLO!
