I really don't see Puck having a chance to upset and get out of the group. Snute and Jaedong will advance for sure. But I really hope Puck advances. I mean I know what Jaedong stands for and stuff, but I don't want him to advance in the WCS AM.

I know a lot of people will be expecting Snute/Jaedong, but with the match order, what if we saw something like
Jaedong > Snute
Macsed > puCK
Macsed > Jaedong
Then you would lose one of the fan favorite zergs D:

I give Jaedong 2 sheeps to advance since he will have to play a Protoss at least once

Top 2 1st 2nd 3rd 4th
--------------------------------------------------------------
Jaedong 70.27% 39.50% 30.76% 17.63% 12.11%
Snute 61.90% 29.17% 32.73% 22.86% 15.23%
MacSed 54.95% 26.29% 28.67% 32.27% 12.78%
puCK 12.88% 5.04% 7.84% 27.24% 59.89%
First two results are very likely according to Aligulac but it looks like Jaedong is quite favored against MacSed:
(1607) Jaedong 0-0 MacSed (1358)
-------------------------------------------
37.10% 2-0 0-2 15.28%
29.01% 2-1 1-2 18.61%
-------------------------------------------
66.11% 33.89%
Median outcome: Jaedong 2-1 MacSed

Ow, I'm so sad that Jaedong has to be eliminated that fast. Sorry guys...
Edit: actually with the first game being the ZvZ JD might get through. This is the best set-up for the group, ZvP + ZvP would have been easier to predict.

i feel like snute has gotten better and better, and macsed is pretty underrated. i think snute/jaedong will be close but that puck will strugge against Macsed
|
JD isn't so bad ZvP that he'd lose to the two P in this group.

MacSed's PvZ isn't very consistent, if he's on his day I'd say he can knock down Jaedong, but I think he will have trouble dealing with Snute. Ah such a hard group to predict, still going for Snute and MacSed I guess.

If he knows some good 2 base all ins he probably has a decent shot of taking out Jaedong

pouty jaedong face is best jaedong face
|
I am hyped, since I read the preview. No need for a pouty face today, no emotion shall show on his his face, he will kill and be done with it.
|
The "How well will Jaedong play today?" poll is the best poll i have seen in a long time. Really nice work. :D
+ Show Spoiler +
so gl hf everyone watching it ^^x
|
rooting for puck root fighting. I know you can win this group
|
very hard to predict this group,
but i think that macsed will make it
|
Jaedong playing at 6am and has 2 protoss players in his group, he is definitely not making it out lol
(Secretly hopes Jaedong takes first  )
