Man TY was guaranteed 1st in group B, why'd they have to put Stats in there?

TY
Stats
aLive

Zest
Patience
Nerchio (maybe true for 3rd place idk)

Innovation
Dark
Showtime

ez picks
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

an all-korean ro12 is quite likely although Nerchio and Showtime/uthermal have a decent shot at making it too.

Group A is group of death.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

The only foriegners with a chance are Nerchio and Showtime. I actually think showtime makes it to ro12 tbh

Snute is a favorite over Ryung/Solar for me.

How many have you won?

4. But I played every week while Ej_ was mostly reduced to casting.


Wow what a god. I don't know how you find time to actually play with the amount of posting you do here.

I think he is more than one person, kind of an anti alt


So that's where Templar went?

Elentos can play SC2 and isn't an NA shill tho

Listen I'm not convinced regarding the "can play SC2" part.

Hey, you did better than Seeker

GTFO. We don't need people like you around here

I was joking, i love you Seeker <3
Group C is so weak lol

good groups. A and B are awfully stacked, C a bit weaker and D looks to be very uneven (the Koreans should dominate). Still looking forward to all those ggs.

Some pretty stacked groups all told. Group A looks the hardest though. Group B will be interesting, since TY is strong but the other two Terrans aren't as good as Stats or Neeb. C is weaksauce. Group D is gonna be the grave of foreigners. Dark and Inno gonna roflstomp so hard.

Guessing herO, TY, Zest, and Inno in first.

quite hard to avoid with round robin groups of 6 players
but yeah the B and C groups with their 3 mus better produce some good games and generate suspense, otherwise they'll become boring pretty fast

Group A:

1) Byun
2) herO
3) Ryung
4) Snute
5) Solar
6) HeroMarine

Byun and hero ahead of Ryung?! Blasphemy! But nope, it's going to happen. This map pool is a lot different from the GSL map pool and I believe both Byun and hero play on it better. Snute will also be very close to beating Ryung for 3rd place but will probably lose out in the head to head. I do really want to place Snute at 3rd though but in this group it too hard to do. Sorry HeroMarine.

___

Group B:

1)Stats
2)TY
3)Harstem
4)Alive
5)Jjakji
6)Neeb

The hell is this? Herstem...3rd? I believe! Stats and TY both won't lose to anyone else until Stats beats TY in their games. Harstem is looking stronger than Neeb currently and I think will out PvP him. This just leaves Harstem beating both Jjakji and Alive...do I sound crazy yet? Believe my brothers! Honestly, Alive will probably be 3rd in this group but I'll be rooting for Harstem to pull through. =)

___

Group C:

1)Zest
2)Nerchio
3)True
4)Patience
5)Serral
6)Pilipili

Zest is best. Strong protoss that can out PvP and PvZ everybody in this group. Nerchio stands a good chance against Zest but in the end, Zest can get abusive which will get into Nerchio's head. Nerchio can out ZvZ both True & Serral and shouldn't have problem with Pilipili. Patience could out edge True but I think with the current map pool (and the correct map bans!) True should be able to beat Patience. Although I wouldn't be surprised to see Patience instead of True for 3rd.

___

Group D:

1)Innovation
2)Dark
3)Mana
4)Gumiho
5)Showtime
6)Uthermal

I want to place somebody else at 1st, I really do...but I can't. Innovation is too good to bet against. I'm taking a calculated risk with Mana taking 3rd in this group. It will come down to him and Gumiho but I believe Mana can out edge Gumiho by the slightest of margins. Showtime, as much as he rocks, will unfortunately bomb out of this group. But at least he'll beat uThermal! <3

Not bad, but you totally underestimate Showtime .

Edit: And sadly overestimate Harstem, especially in this group full of Terrans. I feel bad for him.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

My in depth, well presented and completely objective () thoughts on each group:

A:
+ Show Spoiler +
(T)ByuN > (Z)Solar
(T)ByuN ≤ (P)herO
(T)ByuN > (T)HeRoMaRinE
(T)ByuN ≥ (T)Ryung
(T)ByuN > (Z)Snute
(Z)Solar < (P)herO
(Z)Solar > (T)HeRoMaRinE
(Z)Solar ≤ (T)Ryung
(Z)Solar ≥ (Z)Snute
(P)herO > (T)HeRoMaRinE
(P)herO > (T)Ryung
(P)herO > (Z)Snute
(T)HeRoMaRinE < (T)Ryung
(T)HeRoMaRinE ≤ (Z)Snute
(T)Ryung ≤ (Z)Snute

ByuN and herO fight for 1st, fight for 3rd between Solar, Ryung and possibly Snute. Heromarine is kinda rekt here. Note: I'm not indicating exact results, just likelihood of winning.


B:
+ Show Spoiler +
(P)Neeb < (T)TY
(P)Neeb ≤ (T)aLive
(P)Neeb ≤ (P)Stats
(P)Neeb > (P)Harstem
(P)Neeb ≤ (T)jjakji
(T)TY > (T)aLive
(T)TY ≥ (P)Stats
(T)TY > (P)Harstem
(T)TY > (T)jjakji
(T)aLive < (P)Stats
(T)aLive > (P)Harstem
(T)aLive = (T)jjakji
(P)Stats > (P)Harstem
(P)Stats > (T)jjakji
(P)Harstem < (T)jjakji

If actual TY shows up, Stats is his only competitor for 1st place but he's still the favorite. If foreign tournament TY shows up, he's gonna have to fight for top 2. Still Stats and TY should be top 2. aLive looks to be the favorite for 3rd but he's not really been doing great at offline events so he could get upset. Harstem... Harstem never asked for this. He never asked for any of this.


C:
+ Show Spoiler +
(P)Zest ≥ (Z)TRUE
(P)Zest > (Z)Serral
(P)Zest ≥ (P)Patience
(P)Zest ≥ (Z)Nerchio
(P)Zest > (P)PiLiPiLi
(Z)Serral < (Z)TRUE
(Z)Serral < (P)Patience
(Z)Serral ≤ (Z)Nerchio
(Z)Serral > (P)PiLiPiLi
(Z)TRUE ≤ (P)Patience
(Z)TRUE ≥ (Z)Nerchio
(Z)TRUE > (P)PiLiPiLi
(P)Patience ≥ (Z)Nerchio
(P)Patience > (P)PiLiPiLi
(Z)Nerchio > (P)PiLiPiLi

Zest is the favorite but shouldn't underestimate Patience and TRUE if he wants 1st place. Nerchio has a decent shot at advancing but needs to work on his ZvP confidence. Serral has to really, really show up if he wants to have a chance and PiLiPiLi seems fucked.


D:
+ Show Spoiler +
(Z)Dark > (P)ShoWTimE
(Z)Dark ≤ (T)INnoVation
(Z)Dark > (T)uThermal
(Z)Dark > (T)GuMiho
(Z)Dark > (P)MaNa
(P)ShoWTimE < (T)INnoVation
(P)ShoWTimE ≥ (T)uThermal
(P)ShoWTimE ≤ (T)GuMiho
(P)ShoWTimE > (P)MaNa
(T)INnoVation > (T)uThermal
(T)INnoVation > (T)GuMiho
(T)INnoVation > (P)MaNa
(T)uThermal < (T)GuMiho
(T)uThermal > (P)MaNa
(T)GuMiho > (P)MaNa

Inno and Dark are the obvious favorites, Dark beating Inno is probably the only way Inno doesn't get first. Could see a decent fight for 3rd between Gumi, Showtime and perhaps uThermal. But even with the home crowd advantage I don't see much hope for MaNa.

Seems we'll have a korean only Ro12... Maybe Nerchio or Showtime has a shot, but thats it.
Why so serious?
