The last poll sucked, so maybe this oe is better.

I think that this MSL has the chance to be simply amazing, as the 4 groups carry some of the newest and oldest monsters of their race. Lots of representation from all three races, it should be exciting.

At Nal_rA's current state I wouldn't be saying that quite yet. I have a really good feeling that Nal_rA will be winning this group.

Difficulty, from hardest to easiest:


Iloveoov vs Nal_rA, Stork vs Pusan

ChoJJa vs GoRush, Boxer vs Terato

IPXZerg vs Rainbow, Reach vs Kingdom

Mumyung vs Yooi, Midas vs Rumble


Midas should advance from group 4 easily, along with probably Mumyung.

And does anyone else notice that rA is never placed in a relatively easy group in whatever league he's in?

rA's group is rough. Every player in that group is very skilled, and on fire. Very hard to predict, though I think rA will be able to pull this off.

I don't know much about Rumble, saw him play in some 2v2's for SKT, and he was absolutely SUPERB. Don't know how that translates to in 1v1 play, but he made it this far, so he's gotta be pretty decent. Still, that group looks the weakest. The other three groups are very tough. Looks to be a good MSL.

Yeah, I'm actually looking forward to the MSL more than the OSL, but I hope the maps are better this season. Sauron for instance is boring and crappish.
I wouldn´t call him stupid, but let´s just say he´s unlucky when thinking...

Did u guys see this really neat clip: "Best 10 Starcraft Plays in 2004?" - its korean btw

#1 play was Nal_Ra's hallucination of arbs and then charge through the anti air and goli and recall PERFECTLY against GoodFriend in some island map.
Go Nal_rA!!! One more of those classic moments in this MSL! LINK

Iloveoov vs Nal_rA, Stork vs Pusan is the hardest group. Since it is bo1, Nal_rA will beat oov with some weird shit like triple nexus before gateway :D.

omfg, the first 3 groups are pure death, while the fourth has weaker players (if we can use that term in the MSL -.-)
however, I voted on the group with oov, it's the toughest.

3 great protoss in one group :/

hope nal_ra can beat oov, i don't like oov. and i think stork is one of the worst PvPers.

nal_ra vs. pusan would be pretty sweet. micro protoss vs. macro protoss, ouch.

I think Yooi is gonna own Mumyung considering he owned July in the qualifier, and Mumyungs worst MU by far is ZvT. Then Yooi could also beat Midas TvT in the winner game, because Midas' worst is TvT, and I believe that's one of Yoois best(or his TvZ). Midas&Yooi probably advance.

I think Kingdom&Savior will advance in the other group.
Then I think Oov and Stork will advance from their group.
Last group I think Boxer&Gorush will advance.

Hardest group is obviously the oov group, followed by saviors group, then boxers.
Live2Win is awesome. Happy new year scarabi!

Damn, this one looks really sweetly unpredictable. Midas should own Rumble though, and Mumyung Yooi (probably). I love Kingdom; Reach hasn't been in top form lately, but he's still Reach. IPXZerg is one helluva zerg, and pvz ain't a cakewalk. But I have flashbacks of simultaneously exploding scarabs doing mayhem yet, there might be a light at the end of the.. nah, too obvious. ChoJJa's been doing good in his zvzs lately while Gorush isn't exactly on fire. Too close to call though. Boxer is fucking Boxer, still this is Terato, so all bets are off. Oov vs Nal_ra, ... uaggh... just imagining their gosu faces is too much. Stork vs Pusan; if my life were on the line I'd bet on Pusan, but damn... this is gonna be great ^^

nope. but pusan is currently in the top 3 pvp players. he should take this easy.

Protoss.

Well Stork ain't TOP3 PvP, he was kinda underrated, then suddenly became overrated. But Pusan should beat him. And Kingdom vs Reach, _could_ be sexy game, but PvP there can be cheese and stuff which end it quickly.
It takes a fool to remain sane.

My take on things as well. What makes Reach the absolute sexiness in PvP is his very forceful and agressive micro, which doesn't detract from his unit and probe production. He kan keep up an offensive push and pull tactic better than anyone I've ever seen. Of course, the downside is that the attacker will have less units initially, and sometimes he gets to eager and misses the timing and pushes too far when the opponents reinforcements arrive.

I'm looking forward to Reach vs Kingdom a lot. Both known as masters in this MU.

MUMYUNG FTW

My favorite player, even though he's not great .

But yeah, what kind of question is this? Oov, Ra, Stork and Pusan? Is there any choice here? Too bad we don't have a zerg in that group, though =/.
