Average players beat good players sometimes. Average players don't show consistent results, good players do. HuK shows the most consistent results of any foreigner except for maybe Naniwa, but has the upper hand over Naniwa in the last 3-4 months anyway. | ||

Are you seriously arguing that HuK is being inviting because of popularity? Look at all the people in this competition. The only person with more SC2 achievements is MC. | ||

IdrA and MC. Both are good players and currently slumping. This tournament will be their first step back to their true level. Group B: SeleCT and Killer. Sorry Socke, I love your play. But in the last weeks you performed too sloppily. You have 2 good terran opponents (which is very hard with the current 1-1-1 situation) and a Korean. Group C: Huk and Tarson. Nerchio is still too inexperienced for big offline tournaments. But I will be happy when he proves us otherwise. Group D: Holy shit! Strongest group by far. 2 of the top 5 foreign Protoss players, invicible PuMa and at last but not least Stephano. Nearly impossible to make a safe prediction here. I would say PuMa and MaNa will advance. | ||
