Qualifying for the main tournament is actually harder than winning IEM Sao Paolo.

Only one advances from each bracket? T_T Hard to decide between San and Stardust...if they were in separate brackets they could very well dominate and get into that main tournament!

2 advance, but the polls would be too huge.

Oh haha, I'm dumb, and The Templar mentioned that just above me too. Thanks for reiterating the format.

Thinking San or MC from bracket 1 and HyuN or Leenock from bracket 2, though HyuN's weak ZvP might change things.

So does Bracket 1 feed into groups A and B and bracket 2 feed into groups C and D?

If so HerO is going to get a really strong protoss in his group and he probably won't advance over Rain+San/Stardust/MC TT.
