PvP is the most interesting mirror matchup though (but TvT has gotten better too). Making a comment like "one won the fight because he had a little more" is ironic because it sounds like you're talking about zvz roach vs roach. Except in PvP there's tons of ways to get ahead and many openers that might end at a strong zealot charge army... | ||

These groups are stacked. Wait until the bottom half are eliminated and we are left with just 12 in brackets. | ||

Another draw with people finishing in first place in the groups going into the quarter finals, and people finishing 2nd and 3rd in the Ro12. Additional restriction that you can't face someone from your group in quarter finals, and each number 2 finisher is paired with a number 3 finisher from a different group or something like that. | ||

My picks: Group A: Maru/TY/Gumiho. Dear didn't look good in his last GSL group, Showtime and Special are outclassed in this group IMO. Tough draw for them, getting 3 of the 4 horsemen in their group. Group B: Dark/Innovation/Hurricane or Solar. Group C: Zest/Rogue/Impact Zest and Rogue have pedigree. Impact looked outrageously strong when he qualified over all of the other contestants in the Korean qualifiers. Group D: sOs/Classic/Trap The Protoss players in this group are just stronger than the opposition, however Elazer can be a definite dark horse. He looked really good at Pyeongchang, maybe can show some more of that form. | ||
