Maybe it's my bias but RorO's name makes me think he's a threat in zvz, but maybe he's not since it's sc2. And I think people aren't saying idra > moonglade, just idra's position sucks being between HerO and stephano. | ||

Is anyone else lol'ing at the fact that there are 15 Zergs, 13 Protoss and... four Terrans? It's guaranteed by the divisions that four Zergs and two Protoss move on, and there are only four Terrans to begin with... guess we're about to see how OP Terran really is. | ||

And seriously group H is way harder than group E. Hero Stephano and Roro is not better than Nerchio, Scarlett and Creator. basically has Best foreigner (although some would say nerchio is better lately), upper range korean, and hit or miss Kespa player vs Next 2 best foreigners and best korean protoss. | ||

Yeah..Idra being in that group has nothing to do with why its the group of death...It's a little more about the whole Stephano, HerO, Roro thing..Idra is just an after thought in a group like that. | ||

A: Parting, Illusion B:Vortix, suppy C:Grubby, Sen D:Rain, Babyknight E: Stephano, Idra (such a hard group to pick because you can swap out players so easily, but going with the popular guys/ my favorite team in esports :D) F:Curious, Major G: Lucifron, Lowely H:Nerchio, Scarlett Looks like fun! | ||

Pray that Lucifron can break out of his group and run deep into the tournament. I can't see Illusion or Major lasting past the Ro16. Otherwise, it's going to be another ZvP, ZvZ funfest. On the other hand, I chose H. Korean Champ, best player in NA, 2nd best player in EU, and best player in SEA. And fyi, Moonglade > Idra. | ||

Calling it right now, the final is going to be ZvZ or by some miracle ZvT. (Protoss never wins. T____T) lol... Protoss never wins except WCS Korea, WCS Asia, GSL S3, WCG Korea, TSL4, and OSL. That's just in the last few months. Protoss as a race has done the best this year and during the summer they absolutely dominated. For the year overall they might have slightly less first places than zerg but they have more of the absolute top quality tournament wins than any other race and they have by far the most second places. This year they have 3 GSL second places and 2 MLG second places. | ||

Learn to play infestor BL and you will own terran and toss, and well.... good luck with zvz. and more good luck to Stephano cause there are 2 other zergs in the group Why in every poll about group of death there is no option, "There is no group of death"? I think one of the hardest to predict is group H, I think Creator will get out, but who else, no idea For group E, I go with Koreans, so Hero and RorO, safe bet these Koreans | ||

And I think that DRG picked Creator not because he is weak, but because he wanted a protoss, and Creator was only protoss. | ||

7 Koreans (any less - we would say tournament is shit, any more - foreigners have no chance) 6 USA Americans (wtf?) 2 Canadians (why not) 2 Australians (you would say wtf - but they had their own qualifier) 2 Spanish bros (deserved) Rest are solo representatives. No Ukraine, no Sweden - surprise to me, but Europe finals were tough. | ||

Moonglade was one of the players who tied for #2 foreigner(along with Scarlett and Suppy) and Moonglade didn't even have an easy road to get there too. Winning against players like Revival and MC, what did IdrA do? P.S the answer is lose. To say Moonglade doesn't compare to IdrA is not only a joke, but it's quite the opposite. IdrA doesn't compare to Moonglade at this time. | ||

less pressure, and he does really well when there's no pressure on him. been following him since the war3 days :D idra is awesome too! but we all know that ZZ can go either way - will be interesting to see who does better in their respective groups (which have pretty good z players)i'd say moonglade's zz is better than idra's - but idra has a tougher challenge from stephano, than scarlett would give (even though scarlett is very very skilled). group e is gonna be a very difficult group! sucks that all the top playes are pitted against eachother, but, should be fun to watch nonetheless! going for suppy in this one! but i think stephano or rain are gonna take the cake in the end... | ||

Creator and Nerchio will win their group, and as with group H all the others have clear top two favourites Z_z;: Group C's results could be interesting | ||

Group H is pretty strong but I think you have a clear group winner in Creator and it will be a scrap for second but I think Nerchio will take it. | ||

Idra and Stephano in the same pool, I would pay to see the atmosphere in the EG house right now. I am french and love Stephano but I really would like to see Idra beating his ass and make a great come back, people treated him so unfairly. | ||

I hear you hipsters talking about H, but F, but no, it really is E. C is oddly high though, probably because of fanboys. | ||

Nerchio - Stephano Creator- HerO Scarlett- RorO Moonglade - IdrA With that said, I think creator is a bit better than HerO but RorO is a bit better than Scarlett. Nerchio and Stephano are same. With just IdrA and Moonglade left, I just think Moonglade is slightly better than IdrA. So group H. I think most ppl voted E because it has more Koreans and has IdrA + Stephano... | ||
