That was Grubby making mistakes rather then PvZ tough.
Where was the zealot to block the zerglings? Why not attack when you are already behind and its a matter of time before you are overwhelmed?

Yeah, group D is the real group of death. People going crazy about group A but this one blows it out of the water easily.

Well at least he was smiling after his lose. I hope, he doesn't take the 0:5 too serious. I really hope that he will imrpve a lot in Korea and comes back strong.

Hmpf. None of you have considered this could be a strategic play by Grubby. He probably likes his chances to win Code A better than winning Code S. Being a true champion, he cares more about titles than qfinal finishes. Clearly, Grubby picked to play Code A instead. Considering Grubby has more experience as a progamer than 95% of the players in Code A, I give Grubby a 95% chance of winning Code A after todays showings.

I believe.

Still funny that the poll states that grubby would finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd in 60%^^ oh boy, were we wrong this time

Well that was bad... I hope Grubby does better in code A. At least I hope he can show his real skill.
Now I'm really sad.
Now we also have to consider as a protoss, you have to be inside the world top 5 toss to be have a chance to get into code S (with only Squirtle, Creator and Parting in code S for the moment). Or pray for all your opponents to slump....

Well, I kind of expected this. Symbol's ZvZ isn't nearly as good as it once was, so I figured he'd lose to both Losira and DRG. But his ZvT and ZvP are still pretty good and given this is a Bo1 format he always has a decent shot at making it. Losira kinda surprised me- I thought he's good, but actually making it to Code S like that is impressive. He didn't lie to us in one of his recent interviews, after all. :D

Regarding Grubby: he played pretty bad. Don't know the reasons, but that wasn't impressive at all...

Let it be known I play favorites. Logic and plausibility be damned. Until a day comes where they deport him from South Korea and ban him from ever coming back, Grubby is winning GSL.
