I'll bet the person getting rolled over cares. Sounds painful.

My predictions are that all Zergs make it out of their groups. Except GGPlay, because Lux and Jaedong are better.
Zero fighting.

Great Hype up Post. There is no fucking way we can get a shitty OSL out of this. The player pool is just too good. Thanks for the great work.

(P)Tester is the only one who wasn't picked by any staff member.

(T)Leta, (P)BeSt and (Z)Jaedong were picked by every staff member.

Group A is the most unpredictable Group. However (P)Bisu is the most expected winner of it and (P)Stork is the least expected winner.

July won in EVER08, so if he's to be the runner-up, he should have done that in Incruit. Sadly he didn't.
BTW, if my memory serves me right, July has 13 tickets to OSL Ro16, but he has entered OSL 14 times since the 3 Shinhan OSLs in 2006 are all in Ro24 format.
