Yeah, obviously I meant it the other way around. :D

I think
Group E: Lalush and moon
Group F: July and Thorzain Huk - Think the time in Korea will do him a lot of good and he has a pretty straight forward group. Moon - He's probably better than Lalush, has a wealth of LAN experience and did well at MLG. July - Normally July is bad at ZvZ but Machine is even worse and Sushi should be well below July's level. He's a boss in ZvT which is lucky as Thorzain and Sjow are his biggest threat here. Hasu Obs is decent as well but I think July will have too much for him. Thorzain - He's just flat out better than anyone else in the group but July, plus he has no obviously weak matchups. July's ZvZ is bad against the top Koreans. None of them are here and Ret, Sen & Idra are the only solid ZvZs he'd be up for facing at any point. So I wouldn't worry about July in that manner. July could have issues with an unconventional Protoss though. Especially one that goes nuts with the scouting.
He was knocked out by moon in ZvZ as well at MLG but I think he will beat both the Zergs in his group.

Even so, that puts idra at 7-6, which is +1, and he won the head to head. IdrA advances.

It feels like a more laidback event but its still just the first day

Btw, vods will be out sometime right? I don't think that I can watch the final day since it's a monday Also the fact that it starts at 2 am -.-

Might as well be an "online" tournament atm.

The textbox on day9's stream said SaSe & Idra advance a few minutes after they went off air.

Then someone tell them Idra been in sweden since thursday. Then well he is sick.
When do you people wake up and realise Idra isnt practising as much as he used to and the NA ladder is crap so ofc Idra dont get much competition.
Excuses,Excuses
To be fair when Idra 2-0'ed MC people said MC was jetlagged. Personally I think people are catching up to Idra, both the fanboys and the haters (such as you) are a bit ridiculous. Idra is still a top player, not the best obviously, but still very good. Fact, MC was actually Jetlagged, he said after the match that Idra was bad, and if he faced him again he would 4-0 him in the extended series, which he did.
MC also implied he would humiliate DongRaeGu in GTSL and didn't win. And let's not talk about SCBW "Suicide Toss"
MC is amazing, but seems to find excuses for his losses. Who knows if Idra is jetlagged - personally I don't really care. I just enjoy watching all games.
Again, Idra haters are just as bad as Idra fanboys. Idra not playing great but playing good enough to advance. I could see him eliminated in first round if he runs into MC or something, but make it far if he gets an easy bracket (eg. Brat_OK first round)

Sorry for the spoilers by the way, it was just an automated response

Readmore made a mistake. The first tiebreaker is games won (IdrA 7, Grubby 6).
By every imaginable tiebreaker IdrA has won except for map differential (where they are even).
Also dreamhack said SaSe and IdrA advanced on the stream.
