1.Bomber 2. MarineKingPrime 3. Idra/STC 4. Idra/STC I feel like these 4 have the best chances of making it through the bracket games they have to face. | ||

And the stats do not show that much anyways The win % change was actually huge. There was a post about it. | ||

This. Once bomber wins 1 championship...lol. Once he wins 3 championships (bout to be 4 for mvp), then we can call bomber pretty much equal to mvp k? | ||

Definition of progamer? when you get paid for it (and i guess nowdays as long as you stay in a Team and compete with the best). Doesn't matter how good you are. He knows a lot about the game, but yes, he can't play as good as others seem to play. He still has a good place in this community even though he isn't that good right now/anymore. Coaching which has been his 2nd job all along, doing sponsoring stuff for EG and whatnot. Sure, he's sponsored now, but for how long? Companies don't sponsor losers. | ||

But as a Korean, IdrA is definitely not one of my favoured players in this MLG :p I honestly think IdrA can go far and possibly crack top 6 and even crack top 4 assuming its theSTC waiting for him. I think his greatest obstacle might be a foreigner (SaSe or Stephano unless boxer manages to beat them both which is unlikely...I'm looking forward to tomorrow ^^ | ||

I agree...but lets see the players who the koreans could have brought instead of latters.. Slayers_Boxer, replace with Slayers MMA ST_July replace with colMVP_DRG Inori replace with SlayersGanzi EGPuma, replace with IMMVP replace theSTC with someone like oGsNaDa/IMLosirA Fnatic Rain with Slayers Taeja HongUn Prime...any other protoss. Just theres still a vast amount of players in the pool that are better than the ones at this MLG that could make things infinitely more interesting and a nightmare towards foreigners. I'm sure foreigners will take series or two for sure but...hell of a lot more difficult HongUn compared to any other protoss? Who would you choose? Currently there are two protoss in code S, Huk and Killer. Killer is currently at IEM new york, but has not done great in other foreign tourneys. Inori had some sick PvP last week, but apparently is not consistent enough to make it through an MLG style tourney, as he lost PvP in the OWB to Ddoro, and the other protoss have apparently caught up on the PvP meta-game in the last week. Fnatic rain is an American player, as he currently resides in the USA with his parents, my understanding is that this is a permanent arrangement. Huk 2-1ed Nada in GSL August, in a fairly convincing fashion, and Nada attended the last MLG. I understand and fully believe Korea has the best players, but this is a pretty good sample. Obviously if you brought MVP, or Nestea they would win the tourney, as they are the top in the world right now by a long shot. The current sample is just a good representation of run of the mill code A or code S players. | ||

Same as LzGamer and Machine are. Especially InControl has a big imago in the community. He is doing one of the fan-favorite shows called SoTG and Inside the Game, he knows a lot of the game which can be helpful for the rest of the team, and not to mention his connection between the sponsors which in EG's case seem to be really big, despite the success he has had lately. In short, if EG wants to get rid of someone, it definitely won't be Incontrol. | ||

1. Huk 2. July 3. Idra Dont care about bomber or any of those, overated like most koreans, i actually respect puma and july, feel july will do really well tomorrow as he began to do today. But huk is better than any of the koreans and playing anywheres near his normal level he will win easy. | ||
