Group A depends a lot on Thorzain's and Ret's day, as both of them have recently been not quite as good as they used to be.
NightEnd and Lucifron should advance, but it is only should instead of will.

Group B; I have no idea about Kas atm, but I have this feeling based on nothing that he'll do just fine in TvP and take 2nd spot behind Stephano. Elfi and Mana then, hmm.. Elfi can win anyone in PvP bo3 with no difficulties, but he is somewhat inconsistant. But I can't bet against a fellow finn, so Mana loses and Elfi takes that 3rd place.

Group A: Lucifron is favorite to advance in first. Nightend and Thorzain are both eligible for 2nd place, but I'm giving a slight edge to nightend. This groups really depends on which thorzain and/or Ret comes to play.

Group B: Stephano and Kas.

My heart wants Nightend and Kas to meet in the finals.
But realistically, i'd say in group A, Lucifron wins, T-zain and Nightend advance, in group B, Stephano wins and Kas and Mana advance.

I'm actually just AMAZED that there isn't an EG Teamkill. Sometimes it feels like tournaments go out of their way to set those up.

Well if you are on one side of the draw it means there are three spots left in your group and four in the other. It doesn't really seem AMAZING that they aren't in the same group.

Lucifron gets beaten by Ret+Nightend+Thorzain with ease?
Did you follow the scene the last 2-3 months? What odds are you giving?

I Agree. The Stephano - Lucifron games at WCS Europe Finals were pretty damn close!

My guess is Ret, Thorzain and Lucifron from group A and Stephano, Mana and Kas from Group B.

UPDATE
Unfortunately

EG.Stephano.RC has cancelled his participation to the event.

EG has provided a quick statement about the matter:

Evil Geniuses will be release a comprehensive statement on the matter shortly. We are extremely grateful that the event organizers were so understanding given the proximity to the event. We hope their tournament is a success, and we look forward to cheering on Marcus "ThorZaIN" Eklof who will still be competing.

-- Cody Conners, General Manager, Evil Geniuses

Despite the short notice, a replacement has already been found and

TLAF-Liquid.TLO will be taking Stephano's place in the tournament.

Goddammit, he's pulling out of so much stuff.... I really want to know what the fuck is going on soon.. He seems so depressed/mad on his twitter aswell T_T

The playing field just went down a significant notch, but I guess it's a chance for TLO to show what he's got so glhf to him.
