You can find plenty of examples of currently top players losing to lesser players in the past. As it stands right now, MvP only dropped 1 game to Nestea in GSL4, his own teammate. IM will probably win this teamleague.

uhm
Since in this format, as someone said, superstars is what matters.
Predictions:
ST < fOu
Prime < TSL
oGs > IM
ZeNEX < SlayerS

Disagree with ST vs fOu and especially oGs vs IM. Like you said, superstars are what matter, I predict MvP will all kill
|
there are a lot of unknown players in each team that carry the weight in Zotac Team invitational
Like ZeNexPuzzle got the most win/rate ration of 13-4
Liquid should make it next season if ret and huk goes far which i think they will
If tyler and TLO goes to korea, I think they will definitely qualify and prob a contender to win
|
Slayers are very likely to lose their spot for the next league to Liquid as long as the Liquid guys survive Round 1 of Code A.

oGs vs IM is pretty much SKT vs KT......oGs may have many good players but IM just needs one good player to all-kill you.

Choya is disqualified for fOu for his rock-paper-scissor ladder antics. That said I'd probably still agree that fOu will take it against Startale, unless Rainbow pulls his finger out and starts playing well again.
EDIT: oh and I'd add squirtle to the list of notable ST players. We haven't seen a great deal of him but the word is that he's pretty good.

I really don't understand why they have to select 8 players. If it is a best of 7, then maximum 4 people from each team can play.
Could somebody explain this for me? I never saw clan fights in BW.
I already bought the ticket. It is probably around 3,5 € so that would be the price of 2 beers. Pretty cheap.
I hope the new commentators will be casting this though. I love Tastosis but I would like to see some new faces.
Code A and Code S is a bit too much for 1 Casting Archon.
Anyway, can somebody explain, please?

Apparently Code A will be casted by different people (TorcH??).. while we will probably se the casting archon on GSTL and Code S.
As for predictions.. I'd go for fOu, Prime, IM and Slayers.. The closest match seems to be oGs vs IM, but an MVP all-kill is likely, and even if he gets taken out, they still got NesTea.. way too much power in 2 players.
TSL vs Prime also sounds good, I expect MKP to deliver in this matchup, hopefully we'll see a fruitdealer/MKP ace match!!

Actually more excited for this than the next season of GSL, Seeing all your favourite players + NEW MAPS!! can't wait for Feb 8th :D

Jinro is on Team Liquid.
Which is not oGs.
That are different teams.
Because they are not the same team.
But maybe you want to say that Jinro will go cheer on oGs, which would give them the power of ten thousand suns. Then I agree.

IM is actually scary.
If you actually think about the level and style these two are playing at (IMMvp & Nestea). They are very similiar to Flash and Jaedong of BroodWar.
-Mvp: no mistakes, deadly timing pushes, insane macro, can turtle... screams Flash
-Nestea: When no other zerg is winning, he is. Extremely great macro zerg, creative lategame techniques... Jaedong.
And these two players are on one team. It's scary to see what any team can do about that in any format really. oGs has good players, but they're players aren't as good as the SKT line up of Bisu, Fantasy, & Best. Fantasy is like MKP, and Bisu is like oGsMC... Atleast that's how their styles feel like. oGs lineup feels like old Hite Sparkys line up, one strong S class player, and the rest is Oz level non Jaedong players.
People never played BW might have some trouble understanding. 
I want to list in my opinion best to worst chances:
1) IM- Nestea and Mvp in winner league style format. Good luck.
2) TSL- A powerhouse. 5 top level players in S class. SangHo, Tester, Fruitdealer, & Clide. Ouch.
3) oGs- A huge a deep lineup to choose from. Possible have best protoss in the world. Also Inca, another great protoss, as well as TOP and StC, great terran players.
4) ST- In the previous team league, have you seen ST Bomber and ST Squitle play? They are insanely good. They completely the line up with a now code S july and runner up Rainbow.
5) Sls- They have been getting new talent. In the other team league they are running strong with no-name players. I expect these to do well.
6) Prime: Their line up is large, but they don't have many great players, and the ones they do haven't been performing super well. Ofcourse MKP, but his play isn't super consistent. Maka, and HungUn still okay players, but they'll need to step up.
7) fOu: They have Choya who hasn't been playing well. They don't have any real top level players, but new talent which could do well.
8) ZeNeX: They aren't really getting any many new players. And they're current players aren't amazing. They have Kyrix with his on and off days, and they have Byun; new talent. Poor lineup.

In soccer, your team has like 15 ppl, but only 11 of them can play at the same time. Its like that.
You must select 8 players of ur team but you only select 4 for the matches depending on the strategies you want to use.

TeamLiquid
3 x 1.0
1 x 1.6
= 4.6
Slayers (8th)
2 x 1.0
2 x 1.6
= 5.2
Plus I believe Slayers got another member in yesterday since I recall TorcH was playing Slayers guy in final.
Edit: Sorry, SlayerS actually got two new players and they actually have 1 Code S and 4 Code A for a total for 5.6 points.
