You need to change YellOw to Yarnc, or Yellow[arnc].

Group A obviously.

Obviously group A. You got sAviOr who is trying to prove he can be the best again, Jaedong the hottest player in the world right now, and Sea who is just freakin awesome.

Yeah seriously TheTyranid, it makes the fake look like the real one, gives new visitors to TL false hope. Group A is ridiculous, with the (P)BeSt player right now ((Z)Jaedong), the (P)BeSt player in the recent past ((Z)sAviOr), and two amazingly hot players (no, im not talking about their bodies you sick bastards) who are on insane win streaks. Group C would've been the group of death if those players were in top form, but (Z)July and (P)Bisu are obviously not, and (T)XellOs is still a BIG ?Question Mark? to me.

Looking at just the names you'd be tempted to say "A".
However, I actually think group C with July and Luxury in good form will be incredibly hard for Bisu and XellOs to overcome. I ended up voting group C.
Jaedong and Sea in all honor, but I just don't know about sAviOr and BeSt

I won't say it's obviously A. I did the same as GinNtonic.. I was initially tempted to do group A but then I thought about it for a minute...

In this OSL, there are a ton of good players, but most of them can beat the likes of BeSt pretty easily. Any of the other 3 could beat BeSt without too much trouble, and then they just need one more win to qualify. And honestly, Savior hasn't looked like a huge obstacle the last month, either.

Whereas in group C, there is not a mid-class player in the whole group. July is probably the least favored in the group, and when the least favored the group is Julyzerg, that's pretty deadly. Don't give me crap about his slump, either, because he's been playing pretty well, lately, including qualifying for both starleagues.

Group C. Best is probably the weakest of the 8 in groups A and C. Savior has been playing terrible, although he might show up. Jaedong and Sea are great, but then there's Bisu, Xellos, July, and Luxury. Anyone could walk out of that group and I wouldn't be surprised.

Group B is pretty much Stork's and Flash's for the taking and group D is a joke compared to the others.

I said C, because all the players seem to be in pretty good shape atm.

Group A on the other hand has Jaedong, sea (overrated mofu) and savior, who all look good on paper... And some rokiie named BeSt, but who cares? So its really only a fight between the three savior, sea and jaedong. And the way Savior has been playing you shouldnt have alot of faith in him atm. He'll probably lose to BeSt. So not even all the players has a good shot. I would say Jaedong and Sea are the favorits, but you never know about savior. So there's only 2 favorits, and one small underdog, where in group C ALL the players will have a change, ergo its TGOD.

You all know Im right.

I feel like it has to be Group A because it has the currently the best zerg, Jaedong, the best terran, Sea, the Maestro, and the up and coming Best.

I had to go with group C because I have no idea who will make it out of that group. At least with group A, I know that (P)BeSt won't be making it out.

Winstreak would probably be the wrong word to use, but he's been playing really well and winning most of his games; 9-3 since his loss to Sea in OSC

TO BE HONEST : There is no real death group.. they are all very equal in terms of skill imho..
group b and d might be slightly weaker..

C is most definately group of death IMHO
While A has flash with Jaedong, sAviOr and Sea, BeSt is subpar at best and sAviOr who isn't as good as he was
Now look at group C with JulyZerg and XellOs who both have recently been doing well, BiSu who is well BiSu.... and luxury who pretty decent..

I think people are seriously underrating best. Sure he might not make it out of the group but he certainly has the skill to do so. Especially sense hes the only protoss in the group so the others will not have as much vs protoss prep time. Best has put up solid results recently, hes just considered subpar simply because hes new.

Isnt it Luxuries debute MSL? You dunno how he will handle it.
I think group A is ridiculously easiest to pick for death group.
Lew, group C? Are you retarded? it's hard but JAEDONG SAVIOR SEA?
Best PL Terran, Best Zerg, ex-Best Zerg, A protoss.

I don't care how bad Savior plays atm, Luxury and July still aren't Savior.

C by far... A is predictable Jaedong will destroy it... C has Luxury, who is underestimated, JULY and Xellos, who has been in this progaming faze for a while are always strong, and as a topping, we have BISU Top Protoss player. How could someone pick A? What, their favorite player's in there? Otherwise, we know the outcome.

Probably C. Sea is under pressure as a likely ace in Proleague - I wouldn't be surprised if he is inadequately prepared in OSL as a result. Much is in the same boat, though his group is far weaker.
