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...

Really? D doesn't even look that tough to me... A definitely is though, InControl... lol.
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.
