Byun, herO, Elazer and uThermal just because he plays without pressure | ||

Other favorites in terms of power level: her0, DRG. Both of these probably sit comfortably above the "non top-6 foreigner" echelon and are the top Koreans along with Byun. Either of them could definitely be upset once or even twice, however. Fighting it out for the upset/fourth spot: Elazer, Nice, Creator, Astrea, Skillous, uThermal, Has, Cyan . Of these, Elazer and Astrea are the ones to watch out for, especially Elazer. Shocked if they advance Anyone else. Interestingly, however, one of Has/Cyan/Kelazhur/uThermal is going to necessarily get two shots at qualifying, which is pretty significant. Predictions for making it out the top: Byun, DRG Predictions for making it out of the bottom: Hero, Skillous. Poll: What's your HYPE level??? 4 - LET'S GOOOOOOOO (29) 3 - Yeah I can't wait!!! (2) 1 - I'm really not hyped about this. (1) 2 - It'll be good, looking forward to it (0) 32 total votes Your vote: What's your HYPE level??? (Vote): 4 - LET'S GOOOOOOOO | ||

Well the first round loser matches were DRG - Creator and Elazer - herO on the one side and Percival - Probe and Has - Kelazhur on the other side. Wouldn t say that is balanced. The later 4 are arguably the 4 worst players of the tournament (maybe 4 out of the worst 6 together with Cyan and Ryung), while the other 2 matches could as well be played in the qualifying match | ||

When you aren't automatically put in a group with the like, absolute best of the best Koreans and foreigners in the world you can actually win a series! Truly beautiful, hope he can take it even further and take a big scalp. | ||

Not quite, the first round of LB was pretty stacked one side as well, because they belong to the same side in the bracket. Only 2nd round and onward are more balance. | ||

But re: the other poster now actually I'm not sure that's more balanced because it's only balanced because two top players got eliminated first round haha. | ||

I actually think the commentators were wrong about this, tho, he should have pushed harder at the beginning when skillous was just dead, but once skillous had a pheonix fleet and defensive position with colossi, kelazhur should have focused more on expanding and teching rather than just trying to attack continuously | ||

I think Ryung TvP has been very good recently, taking down Protoss in WTL and almost beat Zoun in GSL as well. So its not that shocking to me that he beat herO, but it would be very exciting to see him moving on nevertheless. | ||

Granted Ghosts wreck it, but that's putting the burden on the Terran to execute the more difficult to control army. Completely shuts down drop play too. | ||

It's really really annoying me how much weaker Group C is than the others and how stacked Group D is. You could make the groups so much fairer if you just swapped some players around in just those two groups. | ||

Special and TIME are good TvT players and the way that Ryung looked today and considering Showtime always seems to struggle with Terrans I'd say Ryung has a fair shot to take 3rd place in that group. It's really really annoying me how much weaker Group C is than the others and how stacked Group D is. You could make the groups so much fairer if you just swapped some players around in just those two groups. I don't think Group C is the weakest and I think it might even be the second strongest. I would say everyone in Group C other than (maybe) Astrea is better better (1) three players in Group A - Neeb, Spirit, Dream; and (2) four players in Group - Showtime, Special, Time, and maybe Ryung (not sure how strong is Ryung is non TvP). With that said, Ryung got put into the worst group for him I think. I think he actually might have what it takes to upset countless players TvP and TvT, but TvZ is just so mechanically demanding and he seems more strategic to me than anything. And so him being with Dark and Serral seems like two auto-losses whereas I don't think he would be an auto-lose versus anyone else. | ||

Group C isn't weak, Zest is one of the tournament favourites, Traps highs are championship material, HeroMarine and Bunny are great players. I'm not sure about Lambos current form but I think he is similar to Astrea in that they are very capable players and can take matches off the best if they play well. | ||

Everyone else in that group is probably going to lose to Serral and Dark so it's not a problem. He has a good shot at 3rd place. | ||
