Not really, they're all pretty decent, not sure about PiG. I'm looking at how Targa almost took out MVP, and Nestea made catastrophic error after catastrophic error

I'd argue that moonglade is slightly better then targa, and that pig is pretty equal to moonglade.

As someone who is an active member of the SEA scene...

mOOnGLaDe, PiG, tgun, Mafia and TargA are all pretty much perfectly even IMO. They all trade games with each other so often. They excel at different things though. tgun has the weakest ZvZ of those 5 but the strongest ZvT and MAAAAYBE ZvP (probably TargA now with PiG also very close)

group 1..you seriously underestimate nerchio and inori..ForGG and Inori imo
group 2..i think your pretty spot on here
group 3..bomber and grubby would be my go to picks, only because pvp is hard to guess
group 4..again, i think your spot on here

Finals are looking like it will be MC vs a few possible choices. Idk if anybody here in current form can beat MC though, id say he only has a chance of losing vs MVP or Nerchio (i know its weird of me saying those two, just remembering back to hsc ..)
I am become death, for I am the destroyer of worlds.....You will be missed KT Violet!!!

I only saw his games against Grubby and Targa. He destroyed Grubby easily who looked really good in his other games today, MVP's first stim Bio units with Medivacs pretty much killed Grubby and he out multitasked him with drops.
Against Targa on the other hand he looked shaky, still managed to win and defended all-ins pretty good.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I didn't argue the effectiveness of it, it's just annoying when people think foreigners still do only a fraction of the work that Koreans do.

what can you say, he still showed off his brilliant tactics, but his wrist injury also showed its ugly head.

a friend of mine once called me up during a saturday night, stoned off his ass and piss drunk, yelling at the phone after watching the results after MVP got knocked out of code S. he was actually trying to come up with some kind of theory that MC had made a vodoo doll of MVP and that MVPs wrist injuries where the results of MC putting needles into the dolls wrist, and he was dead serious; "DONT YOU SEE? MC PICKS MVP FOR R32 BUT AFTER HE LOSES HE TRIES TO GET REVENGE BY JINXING HIM WITH ANCIENT BLACK MAGIC, IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME THEN GIVE ME A BETTER EXPLANATION OR YOURE WRONG."

(he is one of those stoners who believe aliens built the pyramid and the maya calender 2012 bs, telepathy and vodoo.
