Awe hell yeah, I'm rooting first and foremost for sOs to take this whole tournament down, but if not him then Serral, and if not him then I'll settle for Maru, if not Maru then Neeb, and if not Neeb than anyone else. Because of that, I gotta say these first two groups are INSANELY hype.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I must say that while I am not a very big fan of the current WCS arrangements, I think this year has produced an incredibly interesting situation.

Still, it would be awesome irony, if the Ro8 turned out to be all Korean, which I consider perfectly possible. But maybe someone thinks it's crazy. Maybe it's so outrageous that someone would, I don't know, bet something over that?

I mean, it definitely could happen, but I'll make a sig bet. If no foreigners make it to the RO8 I'll change my sig to "Opisska is right: Foreigners suck. I suck. GG." If one or more foreigners make it you change your sig to "TheDougler is right: Foreigners rock. TheDougler rocks. GG."

Deal?

It's possible, just unlikely. Upsets always happen and shake up results. In the case of Serral's group it would probably take an upset for him to not make it.

Last year the 8 koreans were all better than the 8 foreigners, yet 2 of them made it out. And this year that isn't even the case.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Deal!

You have about the same amount of posts and I would say similar visibility, so it is a pretty fair deal. We should only specify for how long the sig is to be kept (I don't care this way or the other).

Let your public humiliation commence!

The hype begins.

(T)Maru 2-0 (Z)Lambo
(T)TY 2-1 (P)Neeb

(T)Maru 1-2 (T)TY

==

(P)Zest 2-0 (T)HeRoMaRinE
(P)sOs 2-0 (Z)Serral

(P)Zest 1-2 (P)sOs

sOs vs Serral is the main event of this entire round imo. Eyes on Serral for obvious reasons but I have a strong feeling that sOs is going to ninja his way to another Blizzcon win. sOs has earned the right to never be counted out.

Serral is probably the only foreigner that will make it to the next round. Moderate chance for Neeb and a very slight one for Special if Rogue decides to shit the bed again.

I don't like the format, Blizzcon is like 7 days after the last day (Sunday) why not one group to the finish every day? A - D - C - B if u want fair rest if it is A1 vs D2 etc as well.

Oh well, should be amazing games, sOs vs Serral is going to be AWESOME

It is impossible for Dougler to lose. Zest is in Serral's group. RIP Korean 100% attendance right there.

Heart wants Neeb to beat TY, but I don't really see it happening. Maru out of group 1st. Both heart and head say Serral out 1st in his group, and I'll say Zest out 2nd

sOs vs Serral should be the main dish and an interesting match for first day.
sOs is THE ONLY player I pay attention to

Good point! How about until the next WCS Event in 2019? That way we can make another bet if we want too.

I look forward to reaping the rewards of your hubris!!
