I don't get stupid comments like this.

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...


Welcome to DieuCure's posting!


I forget too often to not expect so much out of TL posters when discussing Protoss lol.

Does anyone know how the groups are paired in the brackets for the knockout phase? Or is it going to be a draw?


Yeah. 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.


great thanks!

No no it's totally random


You mean the group rigging mafia cares about something other than rigging the bracket against Cure?

I think we can all agree that Group D is good news for Elazer. His only strong Korean opponents are all Protoss players, his specialty.

Really disappointing groups. Group A is crazy, group C has no one special (just like last year).

Put TY, Maru, or Innovation in group C and I wouldn't be suprised if they went10-0
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

How does he have a decent shot at getting 3rd? His chances at beating even one of Dark, Solar or INnoVation are incredibly slim.

So let's see,

My picks:

Group A:

Showtime/Special/Dear, Gumiho didn't look good in his last GSL group, TY and Maru are outclassed in this group IMO. Tough draw for them, getting 3 of the many foreigner gods in their group.

Group B:
Uthermal/True/Hurricane

Group C:

Nerchio/Serral/Neeb

Neeb and Serral have pedigree. Nerchio looked outrageously strong when he qualified over all of the other contestants in the WCS qualifiers.

Group D:

Elazer/Heromarine/Ryung

The foreigner players in this group are just stronger than the opposition, however Trap can be a definite dark horse. He looked really good at Pyeongchang, maybe can show some more of that form.
