Group E is downright evil. Group A will also be interesting.

Group E is just stupid, although I feel A could be a bit tougher despite the lack of recent champions there, Parting is always dangerous, Polt is sick as well, finale just smashed his Up and Down group and TaeJa is TaeJa, meaning that he will advance. D looks sick as well, I'm really excited to see how HyuN will do. All other groups are a bit "easier" but are stacked as well.

I dont think E is that bad. DRG will go 2-0 and Mvp will go 2-1.

A and D I think are the hardest.

No matchup in Group E would look out of place in the finals of any major tournament.

Group G because it's the only one were you can't really say at least one player who is going to go through 100%
If you make no mistake, yet still lose - you don't understand the game. Spiral out, keep going.

I think Group G will be a lot closer than people are expecting. Leenock and Squirtle are both very tough opponents, Keen can never be counted out and Bogus is said to be one of the best Kespa players.

taeja finale polt parting

Polt - a god ever since he stopped going to korean tournaments (looking retardedly good in NASL)

TaeJa - TaeJA

PartinG - PArtinG (especially since there's 2 Terrans, although lately all of his matchups have been looking just impeccable)

Finale - IMO the dark horse of this tournament, he's been killing at NASL.

Group E is close, but I still say Group A is better
hmm... let's think about it

Almost every korean in NASL is doing good, that isnt an indicator for Code S.
I think Polt and Finale are among the weaker players in Code S.

I personally don't think that we have one outstanding Group of death this time. They are all pretty sick.

You can't say for sure who is going to go through in any of these groups, although I think that people are seriously underestimating group F.

You all are insane. It's Group D by a mile.

> almost every korean . . . isnt an indicator

Who? For Polt or for Finale? Because obviously Polt is a good player outside of his NASL results, but that still doesn't mean that I don't think finale is bad. I think he's the Seed of this season. Not that he's going to win, but everyone's going to doubt him but he has the potential to do pretty well.

And Polt isn't among the weaker players in Code S. That's just silly to say. Polt is amazing.

I think group D is the group of death. You got Rain, probably the best player in the game right now, along with gumiho and hyun who are both capable of causing massive upsets. Throw in yoda who has the potential to have a great day and it leaves you wondering just how this will go.

Group A for me, just because I think it's a bit closer than D in terms of relative skillgaps between the players...

Definitely group A. Taeja Polt and Parting are all extremely good in matchups against each other. I think this group will be the closest by far.
