What makes you think he wont? Because every argument that can be done for MC vs Noblesse could've been done for MC vs Hongun.

Also really liked Noblesse's play last season

The main argument for MC/Hongun is that PvP is a very volatile matchup, and MC took an unlucky snipe from a better-prepared opponent. PvT isn't so volatile, and MC will probably be more careful. Saying that MC should lose to Noblesse is like saying that Nestea should've dropped to Losira because he lost to TOP.

PvP is random, PvT is not. MC is the best Protoss in the world and has one matchup to practice, he will be fine.

Whatever, arguments don't matter, when the match comes either I'm wrong or you are both wrong. I predict you are both wrong, but I might be mistaken

You really want a terran star league don't you. LMAO. I just can't see MC being knocked to up and downs. He has to practice 1 matchup and he has been practicing for a long while now.

I really don't see MC dropping to Up and Down when he just needs to practice against Terran. It is exciting to see Polt and MC go at it again and I really hope Polt wins. Group B looks brutal.

I think MC's group will help him very well actually. Just practice new build and hide it, he has more time now. He lost to PvT before b/c lack of practice and new strategy.

MC, MVP and Optimus all in the same group. I've been wanting to see MC vs MVP for a long time this should be epic. Hope MC wins his group.

What in the fu-

You post your predictions and then basically say that there's no point in discussing it. Why post it then?

Luckily for you it's still possible to watch the entire thing for free at the GomTV site!

I think Polt should have picked Puzzle as Code A champ, then it could really be the group of champions Though if he did, I would be quite torn as to who I want to make it out of the group

So you make your argument for why MC could lose to Noblesse, people respond accordingly, and you proceed to say arguments don't matter. Let's just not discuss anything at all then, because none of it matters. -_-;; Nestea lost to San and Rain, I guess he could lose to anyone too. MVP lost to people like Zenio and Genius, guess he's also possibly gonna get upset. Your logic is flawed because it discounts overall results and uses a single series as justification for a not probable prediction. You can get some objectivity in assessing if a prediction is good or bad by looking toward overall statistics rather than anomalies. Your prediction COULD come true, but it wouldn't justify your line of reasoning at all.

lol GSL is going to continue to have bad finals when the players choices stack one side of the bracket..... -_-


They put the top 2 from each pool on opposite sides of the bracket. So A1 vs B2 on one side and B1 vs A2 on the other. But this does mean that we'll most likely get Nestea/MMA vs MC/MVP/Optimus in the ro16. So sick.


I mean yea that will be sick but its also only a bo3... IMO it would be better have them on different sides to then meet in the finals.. but still I also don't like this because with stacked groups a good code S player can be knocked to the up and downs.. and other weaker Code S players can stay with their weaker groups

That is what happens... If MC gets first in his group and Nestea first in his (for example) they couldn't meet until the finals even though they are groups A and B.
the bracket for the round of 16 will look something like this
Top of the bracket:
A1 vs B2
C1 vs D2
E1 vs F2
G1 vs H2

Bottom:
A2 vs B1
C2 vs D1
E2 vs F1
G2 vs H1.
This prevents meeting anyone from your own group again until the finals. To prove this, look at the MC vs July GSL March. MC came first in the group. July came second in the group. They met in the finals. It is possible to have a Nestea/MMA/Kyrix/Happy vs Noblesse/MC/MVP/Optimus finals. We can only pray its 2 from the big 3 to see if we can have an awesome finals for once

If MC and MVP is in the same group, will it be possible for them to meet up in the finals or will they meet up the in semis first?

I was curious who had the best chance at winning GSL August, so I wrote a little script to simulate the entire tournament, using the approach described here: Dreamhack [E-Sports Prospectus] (Basically: take each player's ELO and ELO vs. appropriate races from TLPD - SC2 Korea - Player Index and simulate groups, then the various RoX through to the finals).

After 10,000,000 simulations, here's the group stage (the numbers are % likelihood of obtaining that position):

And here's the tournament:
