ojesus. select gets alicia right off the bat.

byun vs oz should be a really good first-round matchup.

also go SC! <3 hope he's feeling great and has had enough time to practice

Kinda feel bad for select. Doesn't Alicia generally have pretty decent PvT? I guess I'm not up to date on Select's TvP though.

edit: also, bye bye kyrix. it's been real, it's been fun. it hasn't been real fun.

viOlet is by no means an easy opponent. He just sucks at ZvT, and Hero is not T no matter what the op suggets =D

Maka & Lucky are really good. SjoW has great TvT but I would be very fearful for NaNiwa.

It seems a fairly standard draw for our foreigner heroes, they are playing against some of the 'lesser' players in Code A (of course this is hard to quantify and their opponents are ****ing good, noone is bad in Code A, but it could definately have been worse) but also in probably their worst match-up: PvZ. Lets hope Naniwa and SaSe can do better than last season =)

Before the 1/1/1 era, Alicia getting dropped into a group of Terrans was considered very good for him.

He's been slumping lately though, and doesn't really have the best attitude towards the match-up now. (What Protoss does?)

What? I don't think it looks easy. Fruitdealer is probably the easiest game. Maybe Sjow vs Maka

SeleCT has a really solid PvT, he 2-0'd Hero and TricksteR at MLG Raleigh... he's got a decent chance of knocking out Alicia here, I think.

Ah, Superstar went zerg? It always makes me a little sad when randoms finally pick a race.

I feel like Kyrix and Byun are going to be out of the GSL. Fruitdealer/Sase and Maka/Sjow should be interesting.

Nani/Select should make it out of ro32

2-0ing Trickster isn't really notable. >.>

I think it's 50/50. If Alicia buckles down and SeleCT doesn't 1/1/1 him, Alicia should be good. But SeleCT will probably 1/1/1 him unless the maps are favorable -- please let the maps be favorable for Protoss, GOM -- in which case we should see some very good games. Definitely one to watch, whoever wins.

Looks easy for Sjow at least. He gave Bomber a run for his money, so Maka shouldn't be much of a problem.

Select has beaten A LOT of Korean Protosses now, so he has a chance against Alicia.

Naniwa is probably not gonna win.

I'd love for Sase to get rid of Fruitdealer, just so we don't have to hear from his fan boys about how he is still a valid competitor.

Also, my personal wish is for MC to drop down to code B.
