All teams have a chance, but I definately think Harstem can all kill any of the teams.
It looks to me like Denmark has the worst chance of getting out, since all we have is Bunny, and he hasn't been doing so well lately. He can still all kill, but if he loses, I don't see the rest of the team doing much.
Interesting group, none of the strongest teams (imo that's obviously Korea, then Poland, Germany and France) but every one has a chance. Looking forward to seeing Harstem play, this tournament thus far has been a nice scene for the in-form players to show their strength.

I agree with your classement. But to be fair, we need to see the others players in action. The results are so volatile... Maybe Harstem will all kill and be the new hype etc.. And in one month maybe a european will find a way to beat Nerchio etc... And we will need to see Bly vs Mlord to be sure that France > Ukraine. I am not convinced at all by Lilbow and Stephano...
It will be so nice if NW4 was with 4 players (decided by ladder ranking ?), and no extra life for the ace. One man carying a country feel silly...

I'd like that, it would promote countries with depth. I understand that the extra life is some protection against bo1 volatility but as you said - the teams become too ace-dependant. Proleague format would also work nicely.
Still with four players the same teams would look the strongest. HyuN, Tefel, GunGFuBanDa, PtitDrogo, make them a team and it would be one of the strongest in this tournament

Canada advance? I expect Major to all kill.
Huk is one of the worst "progamers" from a mechanical perspective. There is no way he can win in a macrogame as he is (unintentionally) missing so many workers that you would think he was coached by Happy. Also, his micro isn't anything extraordinary.
And Scarlett - based on her showmatch vs HUK - has no idea how to play LOTV. And then there is Desrow who should have no chance vs Major.
