I think Stephano will advance:

-- His zvt is very good and he can advance by beating two terran. I love Innovation but after seeing more games do not think he's the zvt god I initially thought he was; also zvt is still obviously extremely difficult for Terrans.
-- Despite his loss in iron squid to drg, I still think Stephano is capable of beating DRG --30% or 40% chance perhaps, given he's beaten him a couple times before and DRG's play can show a lot of variance, although lately he's been in beast mode.
-- Stephano basically stopped practicing prior to going to Korea and now he's practicing quite a bit, so I expect a return to form where he was widely considered a top 3 zerg. He's not a normal player that needs months to figure things out. This guy can do it in one or two weeks (or at least this fanboy thinks he can!)
--Stephano is a big game player. I've never seen him rattled and he tends to play better as pressure intensifies.

Just HuK. Stephano while being a great player is facing a zerg and two S class TvZers... thats not good odds for him. HuK somehow will find a way.

just because stephano looked somewhat well in proleague, thats proleague. not the gsl. im sure the koreans are watching every game hes played. they are by far way better in the homework format that is gsl.

Seriously? Fucking seriously? He doesn't even take a game off DRG, gets destroyed 3-0 and you still think he's likely to beat him? Can we say fanboy?

How many other people voted after seeing the results of HuK's group?

Stephano! Good play in proleague recently so I think he can take it.

actually some combination of players would be easier then others. shocking i now...

if you're going to be mean and make fun of people, don't make it so you can be made fun of back.
and i believe he was just saying that huk would not be able to compete with anyone that is there, even if it was the easiest group there it would still be a challenge for huk.

He said 30-40%. Likely would be 50%+.
