Good GOD. This is the the most insane group of death I have ever seen. Any one of these players could make it to the Code S RO4 were they not in the same group. MKP, Symbol, and Squirtle are all COMPLETELY SERIOUS championship contenders, and MC is freaking MC. You KNOW it's the group of death when MC is favored to take last in the group.

I still don't understand what Squirtle was thinking when he picked Symbol for his group. Actually, what were all three of them thinking? Picking anybody but their actual picks would have made their lives easier.

Well, I guess Symbol will win the group and Squirtle has a decent chance to still make it out, as he probably has a decent chance against MKP and I remember his PvP being good enough to be considered the favorite against MC. Who knows, though. The only thing that's for sure is that tomorrows games are going to be awesome.

Edit: I would actually think MKP is the weakest out of the four. Symbol won against him 2-0 in the last group stage and although MKP has great TvP, I think both MC and Squirtle have good chances to win against him (I could see both of them crush him but also lose really badly.). I might be somewhat biased towards Protoss though.

It's possible that Squirtle chose Symbol to avoid him in the Ro8 while also eliminating some of his larger threats. Very intelligent pick if that was his intention (although it could backfire TERRIBLY). By picking Symbol, he guaranteed this to be a group of death because everyone picked next would try to hard counter everyone else in the group, and they did.

Symbol chose MKP, who he crushed in the previous round. Squirtle on the other hand is VERY weak against Terran cheese so MKP was the ideal choice. MKP then chose MC, who is arguably one of the best PvZers in the world with his insanely strong timings. He is also a wild card PvP because he is such an unpredictable (and strong) player in that matchup. While on the TvP side, MKP holds the upper hand historically vs MC.

Each pick makes complete sense if you think about it.


I really didn't put enough though into it, this actually makes quite a bit of sense. It's crazy though, because all of them can potentially take series of each other, although at this stage of the tournament that can be said for nearly all players. I was just looking at the group thinking that in a system where the groups basically pick themselves there should be no way that four of the favorites to win the tournament could end up in one group. It just seems so counter-intuitive on the first glance.

Noooo idea who is getting out of this, so umm, GO MC!!!!


I 'feel' like Symbol and MKP might just make it through, but really, any combination of players could go through and I wouldn't be surprised... except for maybe Squirtle and MC, simply because they have to practise all three matchups.


It really depends on how MC is playing tonight I think. If he brings it then he gets out, simple as that. On a good day MC beats everyone.
If it's a good day.

So, who is putting money on MKP 11/11 squirtle twice in a row?

This group hurts me in my heart.

Hoping for MC to get through, would like to see Squirtle/MKP get through, resigned to the fact that it will probably be MKP and Symbol.

MC || HuK || MMA || Squirtle || TLO || Sea || HerO || MarineKing || MVP || NesTea

Nice cover thingy. So sad that any of these players will be out this round let alone two of them... 4 people who could have won the whole thing. All I hope is that they all play their best games so the best two come out.

Come on MarineKing. Hopefully he avoids The Zerg, he has a decent chance if that happens.
