no zergs in his group, sigh =/


I thought the same thing =/ Can you even believe how tough groups A and B are? Other groups seem super solid as well and no DRG yet :o. Guess Code S is starting to really shed the worse players and become the super elite like it's meant to be

Code S is looking more beasty for each season. Getting harder and harder to predict who's going to make it through

I agree with most of what you said. The only group I don't agree with is Group F. The order of the games are + Show Spoiler +
Trickster vs Ryung and Top vs Alive. Ryung hates PvT and Trickster picked him (and no one acted like that was completely retarded like inca picking a zerg last season) so I'm going to have to go with Trickster going 1-0. Then, Top is just a TvT monster. It's his best match up. Alive isn't bad at it either, so it is possible your prediction pans out (64% vs 59% Top vs Alive). I can see where you are coming from if it ends up being Ryung vs Top for the elimination spot and Ryung is a TvT sniper. However, I think it will be Ryung vs Alive for the elimination game and Ryung will take it knocking Alive into the up and downs. Then Ryung will play probably trickster again since trickster has an overall losing record against Terran and Top doesnt vs protoss. Then it will be up to Ryung to overcome his difficulties vs toss or else Top and Trickster will advance from the group.
All in all, these groups never even come close to turning out how we expect. Who picked Coca to win the MKP, Losira, Alicia, Coca group last season? Who saw sC and MVP finishing 4th and 3rd respectively to Byun and Zenio. There are bound to be some surprises :D and that's why GSL is awesome

MC picking some really strong Terrans. We've seen in the past that it's his chink in the armor. I hope that his time back in Korea has allowed him to eliminate that weakness. Really don't want to see him playing super greedy again...1-Gate expand dying to simple 2-Rax pressure..:\

Just to brag... I picked Coca to advance from the MKP, Losira, and Alicia group. I saw that Alicia's PvZ is bad but Coca's ZvP is really good.

and does anyone else think that FXOads looks like anypro?

He'll be fine don't worry. If he gets first place in Group A and Mvp second place in Group B things will get interesting. They should let MC decide all the groups instead of everybody picking a player.

Omg that would be so epic. MC got to talk after almost every pick anyways. Why not just let him run the whole selection lol. Nestea fell asleep during it so he doesnt care who he's facing

Group H is the group of death imo, otherwise I don't see any groups that will be much of a tossup. Possibly Group A, but not for sure.

Edit: Oh, Optimus is Polt. OK, that group is gonna be pretty intense as well.
Survival is winning, everything else is bullshit.

MC, Optimus, MVP and Noblesse. I guess that MC has practiced hardcore in PvT. I hope he doesnt expand versus Optimus at least ( expect 1 base all-in incoming lol)...

This will be the first time 2 gsl champions have gone against eachother correct? I'm not counting MVP vs Nestea in the first code S because MVP hadn't won yet. I suppose everyone else must be happy that all of the champions are gonna take eachother out.

Pretty lucky for MC. Just has to practice 1 match up for the group rounds.

Group A and Group B look amazing!! WOO Can wait for this GSL!
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

Nada is a smart guy who always will challenge someone defeated himself before and improve himself. It is the right time to choose Alicia because he knows Mc needs to practice pvt and therefore he will have one of the best tvp partner this week.

MC and MVP are both kind of unpredictable. You just do not know when they will play like a beat and when they will lose like a newbie and on the other hand, polt is strong but in my opinion he is an opponent that easier to prepare for.
oGs terrans are strong and good for mc to practice, but both nada and top do do not like to go all-in against any race so Mc needs another good terran to learn how to hold all-in. BTW, I do not worry about mc' late game at all, especially against terran.

I will definetly watch group B. If there is any toss knows how to hold a terran all in, it will be MC.
And if he falls, then the season will be like 2 zergs vs 17 terrans because toss will fall.

other tosses like puzzle, genius are good but I can not see them get through all those solid terrans.
And for MC, it is a good pick because if he cannot survive from this group, he can not win this season. And he is not someone aiming to ro8 or ro4. He knows what he wants.

And finally, we may again not have a good final, but at least we will not see how easy nestea can win a gsl like last season. This time it wll be tough for him to get to final and I like that and want to say thank u to mc.

I think MC has Group B, easy. I can see Polt pulling a victory over him, but honestly? MC only has one match-up to practice. That's a huge advantage, and I think he can do it.

MC > MVP
Polt > Noblesse
MC > Polt
MVP > Noblesse
MVP > Polt

MC and MVP advance. Polt stays in Code S. Noblesse drops to Up/Down.

Group A is much harder to call. MMA can easily fall if NesTea and Happy sit down and collaborate. He has a lot of holes in his play that can be exploited. MMA vs. NesTea should be pretty amazing to watch, though, and I really hope we get to see MMA's multitasking go up against the solid wall that is Professor Tea.

Finally, I miss the dealer of fruit and his deep, manly voice. Guess I'll have to make do with TOP's voice instead.
