Holy crap group B is such a group of death, it's ridiculous. It's not even close O_O;;;;;;

gogogo MC, it's gonna be a really tough one though...

Seriously, 3 OSL winners AND Symbol who is playing ridiculously well atm. Holy moly.

Love all the groups, as an MVP fan I'm loving his group, looks like a good group for him.
Poor marineking, seems like he's destined for another ro16. I guess if he can avoid symbol he has a decent chance though.
Group c fascinates me as well. NaNi, genius and two unpredictable Terrans. Could be explosive.

Group A: Mvp, Taeja
Group B: Symbol and MKP Symbol beats Squirtle, MKP beats MC, and then Squirtle beats MC ):
Grouip C: Keen, Genius (Genius to get his revenge, Keen is good.)
Group D: DRG, NesTea (DRG will probably win this GSL)

Aside from MVP with his incredible GSL performances, that are allways way more successful, than his play would suggest, Byun is the scariest Terran at the moment. He is basically very similar to Marineking in his style, but plays it out way more clever and solid. It's no surprise that he got chosen so late. He finds himself in very doable group for him. Genius, Naniwa are two of the very best Protoss', but well, everyone in the Ro16 is fucking scary these days. There are no easy opponents at this stage anymore, so you have to live with the lesser evil, and Byun definately got it this time.

If Symbol and MKP go through from group B, there may not be any Protoss in Round of 8 :O

Holy damn...these groups are so stacked. I may have to buy a pass just for Group B. I seriously won't be surprised by any results, these guys are all so good and are all good enough to win the whole thing.

When Taeja is the first pick you know you have a great ro16
TL Mafia. Love it. Play it. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=31 I find Kennigit really attractive. If anyone has a picture of him please feel free to PM it to me.

Honestly it's not Byun's fault that everyone just dies to his pushes and he can't even macro.
Edit: he can't even get into his macro-mode*

Well I think the macro games Byun showed so far were pretty convincing. He has a very good mixture of standard allins, cheese, unorthodox macro strats and absolute standard play. That's what I meant with clever. He has a good mixture of strategies and chooses them well according to maps and opponents.

So sad I won't be at home during group B :/
Oh well, season ticket is a useful talant toi have at least. Got noooo idea how it'll end up though. I have a hard time seeing MC advancing, and a hard time seeing Symbol not doing so. Squirtle vs MKP though? Really hoping for the former, but damn...

Whoever makes it out of Group B won't have the energy left for the Ro8. It's the Group of Death for a reason: everyone dies before the next round, lol.

no he doesnt actually the reason he is so cheesy nowadays is because he used to have the reputation of the guy who only plays 50minutes game and who will camp the first 15. literally. so ppl would triple expo and get away with it vs him. so he changed that, and along the way he realised terran cheese is good, and kinda better than straight up play vs both toss and zerg. he can macro anytime he wants, hes already proven it.

yea hes really smart about that. mkp does the same actually, just hes so cute and has cool hairstyle so ppl dont bash him lol.
for now i have no reason to believe byun is better than him but theyre around the same, mb mkp slightly better

Am I overhyping things in my mind when I feel like group B is the hardest group of 4 players that we've ever seen so far in SC2? I mean seriously.

Squirtle just came 2nd in resent GSL
Symbol definatly played at the top of the top level in the previous round. If he keeps playing like that hes DRG class definatly.
MKP... well, its MKP... maybe the best armycontrol in the world and has crushed MLG lately.. and.. hes MKP
MC... nuff said
