Just remember, if you can think of the most dangerous and arrogant pick to make then congratulations - you know who MC is facing off against in group C.

Edit: In all seriousness Nestea picks the easist opponent that he can (Smart and safe). MVP I have no idea who he will pick, probably a weak zerg or terran. MMA might pick DRG but I think he might be comfortable picking Jjakji. Jjakji is bad against Terran and MMA, being the charismatic devil he is, will want to face another GSL champion.

MVP chooses Ganzi/Gumiho
Nestea picks Oz/Parting
MC picks MVP somehow
MMA picks Jjakji or Gumiho

Very very strong players in the ro16. I think all these groups consist of truly the best players in the world.

I suspect that MC will choose Genius, simply to out-ceremony him. And I doubt genius will be taken by MVP or Nestea, since MVP's PvT is his worst MU, and Nestea can choose Curious/DRG.

I hope the 3 Zergs continue! I would be really happy to see Nestea winning the whole thing vs MVP in the finals! That would be Awesome! :D

I'm going to be mad if Nestea picks DRG.
As if we need less zergs than it already is.

I would like to see DRG matched with Ganzi though.

Since the format prevents Mc from picking MMA, Nestea and Mvp, so no matter who he picks, it will not be looking too silly this time. The thing I am most curious about is not Mc's pick or MMA' pick.
I am more interested on which terran will be mvp's pick and if Nestea will pick a zerg.
We will see and group nomination is always fun.

Some ppl may think it is unfair to let these four be seeded player based on 2011's gsl points and I understand what you are thinking. But if you look at the whole picture, those four players are by far the most successful players in gsl's history.

To the people saying that the current nomination seeding is unfair: I think a good way of "rewarding" those who did well last year is to at least give them this season as seeds. HOWEVER, I have a problem with how GSL points don't decay over time, thus giving abnormally high points to players who haven't done well in ages. My problem is more with how GSL points accumulate and (don't really) depreciate. I think if they want to follow this system in future GSLs (using 2012 points in the succeeding seasons) they need to find a better way to calculate points (bonus for consistency, extra bonus for domination (no losses the whole season), bonus for successive championships, decay over time, deductions for early season exits, etc).

MMA vs DRG first round!

LOL no that would ruin the entire tournament. MMA should pick JYP, since his PvT is literally terrible.

...That would be so epic. But why would MVP choose a super strong ZvT player in DRG, and an above average TvT player in Jjakti?

The Annoucement of the announcing from GOMTV of the annoucement that the GSL groups will be announced.

Right...

Lets just hope MC doesnt screw himself over, lets just hope he picks alive and whatnot...
