yes someone will beat dongraegu Yeah, it's fairly likely that Stats will play DRG twice and that's and even or Stats-favored matchup Ah yes, noted PvZ master... Stats. Stats is one of the 3 best PvZ players currently, possibly number one so... Yes? DRG lost Cyan and Patience recently. As much as I like him, his ZvP has looked shaky Yeah, I may be discounting him too much after that dismantling by Rogue. But with DRG's creativity and the fact they're teammates, I expect Stats to struggle.

Rogue embarrassed DRG even more than he did Stats last GSL. Rogue just has a habit of making otherwise solid players look like children when he faces them in finals/Bo7 matches. Stats has one of the highest pro PvZ win percentages. Also don't forget, Stats beat Rogue himself last GSL when they met in the Ro16. His PvZ is incredibly solid, and I believe it's enough to overcome DRG, unless DRG has somehow massively improved his form very recently.

Assuming they both get out of their groups of course I m not sure, if the seeding into the playoffs is set by groups or drawn randomly, so can t be 100% sure about that..

If we have this lineup at a LAN tournament I'd be hyped af but sadly online is all we've got for a while. Would be genuinely surprised if Serral/Reynor doesn't take this.

There was a TvT last season, Special vs Cure or sth, where latency won every game indeed :/

Clem vs Rogue should be interesting

No, it's not like GSL.
They just do a draw after the group stage, where group winners face group runner-ups, and the two players advancing from a single group are put on different sides of the bracket.

As I write this, 71% predict a win by Europe. This was unfathomable in earlier years of StarCraft II. I still think Korea can win, but the playfield with the top-tier Europeans seems pretty even.

I think in an earlier edition of this poll, there was the option to chose NA lol

True, server advantage might give Koreans a chance to wrestle enough maps against Serral and Reynor. Offline I think the chances of European win should be higher.

No idea it was starting so soon after EU and NA concluded. Not a lot of time to prepare.

Tough group for clem. If he doesn't beat rogue I think he'll have a hard time coming out of a group with major.

First break before the first game, I hope Dreamhack never changes.

I have been watching NBA lately, I don't know about other "real" sports but somehow 48 minutes of game translates in to a 3 hour broadcast. I honestly think as many ad breaks as DH does it doesn't come close to that level...don't watch any other "real" sports though so can't comment about those.

That was very not close, hoping for MLorD to do something cheeky now.

Korean T in macro tvt are scary...
