I think C is over all the hardest, Ret has been on fire lately and with tester and DRG in it, i feel bad for slush the odd man out .... oh ya and select is in there.

i gave points for each player and C got the most overall, pool A would be best if someone better than incontrol would be in it, hes just not a very good player (certainly the weakest of all 20).
But regardless i think every pool is really good and there will be exiting games :D

how is pool c so far down there? that is one beastly ass group. i don't think group A is THE death group. got strong players, but i'd say mostly c, and d are stacked. you guys be undermining players >_<

DRG will win that group. TLO and SeleCT haven't won a total of 3 sets in the last two MLG's during Group Stages. It's not undermining players if they perform horribly. Plus, out of CoCa, NaDa, Bomber, and TesteR, I think that TesteR may be the weakest Korean Invite. NaDa and Bomber both are fantastic players who I would definitely say are stronger then TesteR, and CoCa recently got traded to SlayerS so he has plenty of practice partners to make his lacking match-ups better (ZvT and ZvZ). CoCa has some of the best ZvP in the world, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him beat HuK and NaNiwa. TesteR is a great player, but he isn't as scary as other Koreans at the event. Then the last person is Slush, who's great, but isn't scary. I mean some of his games were really interesting to watch (I don't play Zerg, but I really liked his double Roach Warrens for both claws and speed really fast), but Pool C is far from the scariest.

Groups in order from easiest to hardest:
C: Slush, Select, TLO, DRG, Tester
D:Kiwi, Ret, Sheth, Moonan, Nada
A:Nani, Huk, Inc, Rain, Coca
B: Idra, Sjow, Haypro, Machine, Bomber
HAYPRO BONJWA FIGHTING :D

select just won NA bnet invitational. Slush beasts through MLG time and time again. DRG is top 3 zerg in world (imo) TLO is a bit of a toss up, but is definitely capable... and has been in a pro house. idk, tester is korean, probably not the best. Also, you just called haypro a bonjwa and i think he would even agree that's disrespectful. That is really the biggest reason i can't respect your opinion. stop trying to ruin this sacred word!!! GAAAHHH!

I obviously wasn't serious...
And it doesn't matter as much how well SeleCT has done at other tournaments, as in the MLG environment he has consistently done poorly two tournaments in a row. It's a disgrace that he's still in the pool play. DRG is great, but one player doesn't make it a group of death. TLO has had medical issues with his wrists for a while, meaning that despite living in a pro house he hasn't been playing as much recently; and it shows. His performance recently has been less then good. That group really is not that scary...

Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Especially sheth, I don't think you can count him among those others considering how well he's been playing.

This is really really even.

I don't think incontrol will go 0-5. He may not be the best of the best of the best, but he's certainly capable of taking sets off of anyone.

Well, puma 1-1-1ing >.>

IMO a lot of people are really underestimating Sjow. I think he's absolutely able to take 2nd spot away from IdrA in group B.

its group D guys that is the correct answer. yes huk and naniwa are the hard hitters in group A but look at the rest of the scrubs in there :/

D is full of hard hitters.
i can find much more productive things to do in the amount of time i would split my workers. for example right after i click my workers to mine, i quickly tweak my left nipple

I voted B. Idra is very good. bomber is a monster, if any1 takes him out it will be a big surprise. sjow and haypro seem like wildcards tho. sjow does very well in a lot of tournys and you never know who haypro could take out. i've seen him do crazy baneling all-ins.
