MKP's TvZ is really, REALLY shaky.

If a Zerg doesn't pick him super quickly, I'll be very surprised.

He has the ability to dominate as easily as he does the ability to throw away games to questionable decisions.

Marineking especially in TvZ is always going to be a wild card. Zergs don't like to pick him. He consistently gets chosen late despite all of these predictions that people will choose him early.

TBH if he's going to be chosen early at all it'll be Life that does it. I dont see DRG choosing him at all. I think he'll go after Innovation.

That's funny because Roro and everyone else thought that too until MKP ro-rolled him up and smoked him

MKP not to be dismissed so lightly.

It all sounded so reasonable as I read it...

Didn't even last a single pick.

No but all together the first 12 picks in the mock version match the first 12 picks of the real one. And I can say that confidently even before the 6th pick is known.

i've seen DRG pick people he's previously stomped in groups, and he absolutely slaughtered Innovation, so i can see him picking him.

And yeh obviously terrans will pick terrans.

I am sorry guys, but this is getting seriously annoying!

WHEN is the bloody ceremony? Nothing in the articel, nothing on liquipedia. Why do you insist on writing about interesting things in absolute detail and then having the reader google the one really usefull information - when they are??

edit: funnily enough, google leads to TL itself with a LR thread (and it is already over).

edit2: even more funny is that the prediction was quite off, but in 3/4 groups, the last player turn out to be right

The biggest problem with attempting to predict how the group selections will turn out is the fact that one strange or provocative pick early will snowball and mess up all predictions. I predicted the picks that I considered most logical based on recent statements and the form of the players, but just as I originally wrote, external factors make the Group Selections exceedingly difficult to predict.

Hey, nobody really expects you to predict 100% correct. I think that Fionn thought us that very well

I was rather commenting about how strangely it turned out - that you predicted the last guys right, even though they ended up being picked by different 3rd-placers. But after all, there were some pretty good predictions, such as DRG's all-T group.

Kind of lol'd at the fact that RorO was picked last even though he's arguably the weakest (tied with perhaps Losira or MarineKing's TvZ).

Haha, everything was so wrong except the ninth pick, which was still innovation XD.

Nevertheless, a very entertaining read. I think these are impossible to predict ^.^ who could have seen parting being second pick?

I think they should implement a rule that you can't pick a player you won against in Ro32. Maybe that the player who lost can vote or pick the player he lost against (if its possible and the player isn't seeded etc).
Its kinda boring seeing MC vs Curious again, but ok, will still be great games anyway.
Overall it doesnt really matter who picks who, but for me it would be more interesting.
