Why not? Squirtle probably should have picked a Terran, though his PvZ is not weak. And Genius 4-0'd Naniwa in NASL

I dont agree. The point is to show you are the best player and you are not afraid of anyone. Unless you are the player who settles for like a third or fouth place.

LOL not really... MC did that and died

I want Taeja to pick MKP, but I don't see that happening since MKP smacked him down in IPL FC

No, the point is to place 1st and make bank. Its stupid to think otherwise.

The smart thing to do is to pick the weak players and effectively ensure you advance in the tournament.

Be serious here, its all about winning. If people thought like that all the time we'd never see any cheese ever.

Lol exactly.

You don't agree because you are a viewer, not a contender for the title.

I think this is the strongest GSL player pool yet. Anyone of these guys could win it.

I know that it didnt work out for MC. In fact..I think my statement includes everyone BUT picking IMMVP. But considering the history of DRG and MVP I think they are evenly matched.

I just love Genius and Naniwa. <3

And Symbol is red hot right now, hes one of the last people I'd ever want to pick in this GSL. Squirtle CAN take him, but its far from being a safe option in my opinion.

You realize if they pick easy now all the "easy" players don't have a group to themselves and make it to the finals. Instead all the strongest players split amongst different groups giving better matches. More preparation time for those single "hard" opponents. Picking easy players is smart and results in a better tournament overall.

I wouldn't mind MKP in Group C either.

Naniwa should be easy for MKP, and Squirtle isn't bad for MKP.
