Vortix best is TvZ but he is 3-7 against MMA so it looks like Bunny is screwed but Vortix can maybe upset Mvp or MMA, although I would favor both of them after their recent TvZ games. | ||

I don't know, there's also Snute and maybe TLO for foreign Zergs, then there are the Chinese Zergs as well. It's a really tough cal, because among foreign Terrans there are so few results and accomplishments among them. Happy is probably the best, and Scarlett is the top foreign Zerg. | ||

Yeah, TLO/Snute/Xigua/toodming are probably in the running as well. But I could´nt really put them ahead of Vortix either. Like I said, it is a pretty open position atm. and Vortix is one of the contenders to take it. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Group A Top 2 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. Group B Top 2 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. Group C Top 2 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. Group D Top 2 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. Which by the way means that in groups B, C & D my favourites are supposed to be the worst. Oh, well. | ||

Also Bling ahead of Nerchio feels strange. Well, Aligulac has Jjakji as no 1 in the world and in TvP, with 2130 and 2108 points respectively, while Grubby's points are 1474 overall and 1449 vT. Even taking into account that all those numbers are +/- 100-150, it's still a lot. But I believe in Grubby nevertheless. :D As for Bling, he's slightly ahead in his 1st place chances, but way down in 2nd and 3rd, but Aligulac still decided to put him ahead of Nerchio. O.o | ||

Group D, is similar to A where you have two very high profile Koreans who are likely to advance, but it's still not the GoD... I think to have a real group of death you need at leat 3 (if not all 4) that have a strong case on paper. I think B is pretty good in that regard. We have a Korean and 3 solid EU players. However, don't think there's quite the proper level of death here. Which leads to what I think IS the group of death; GROUP C! TLO has one matchup to prepare for and if anyone can come up with a few different surprise builds I have faith in him. BBK, Welmu and SD may not be the top names, but when you consider that there's 3 strong PvP players in this group it suddenly becomes quite cutthroat (I don't feel the same about the 3 protoss in D). Predictions: a, MMA > MVP > Bunny > Vortix b, Jjakji > Snute > Dayshi > Grubby c, Stardust > Welmu > TLO > BabyKnight d, San > MC > Nerchio > Bling (I don't actually know the match order so that could change how a feel about some of the 2nd/3rd placements) Solid groups. Can't wait! | ||
