Naniwa's group is easier than say, group C, no doubt about that, so he'll have an easy run going into the later stages of the tournament. I don't doubt that he'll win it though, he'll be aching for a comeback after tripping on the line in TSL3.

I'm wondering, what will happen with Socke?

I know that he isnt able to participate in this MLG because of the ESL-Finals, but will he lose any "points" he has earned until now for the next MLG after Columbus?


Socke will retain his MLG Dallas points, and be carried over into Anaheim.


Socke's replacements will get so many points for having insta 32 minimum that socke will likely lose out of pool play for anaheim.

Well, there are no Protoss in your pool, so that's a definite point in your favor. However, I lost a bit of confidence when I saw you lose to Agh in the WCG qualifiers ):

http://us.wcg.com/?page=stem_schedule&stageid=4110

I also want Machine to win though D:

Sorry incontrol~ But most of those guys in that pool you can easily take on.

Once you're in that pool play, the system is in such a way that it's REALLY hard to lose your spot. You're pretty much guaranteed at least top 25 every event. Which is just retarded, meanwhile other players have to play about 3times the games in very difficult qualifiers to be on an equal footing. I've been in competitive gaming for a long time, i played CS 1.6 competitively and went to lots of lans/events up until around 2008. So i've seen my fair share of stupid systems that people have tried to come up with. But this has got to be one of the most flawed.



How are you guaranteed a top 25 every event? If you get out of the top 16, you have to go through open the next event, possibly getting knocked out of open. If people do not show up then you get bumped. It just so happened that Gretrop AND Sheth got lucky (yet no one has mentioned Sheth) and got bumped up or else they would be going through the qualifier.




yeah its lucky for sheth but sheth WAY deserves his spot.


Since it happens to one person you do not like (Gretrop) and it happens to one person you like (Sheth), it is unfair to give Gretrop a top 16 spot and it is fair to Sheth a top 16 spot?

2011 Dallas Points

Socke has a fair amount of points (650), since he was 6th. The point totals are changing for Columbus due to the exchange program (new points) but the top 32 point awards are the same. I don't have the inclination to run the math, but it's not out of the question that he holds on at the low end of the top 16.

Huk looks like he'll be out of the pools, though.

I don't see the hype for group C. Tyler and Ret will likely drop out easily. Unless they practice their butts off.

Pool A: Naniwa
Pool B: Kiwikaki
Pool C: Idra, Tyler or Select
Pool D: Machine or Incontrol.

Those are my guesses. Group C is just too hard to know.

Tyler is a dumbass, all he does is spam apm on his stream, because thats all he knows how to do. seriously if you watch his stream all he does is spam apm. OMGZ I HAVE 350 APM BY PUTTING MY NEXUS ON A HOTKEY AND SOMETHING ELSE ON ANOTHER AND CLICKING THEM ALL GAME LONG!

He wont even get top 2, he says hes not scared of anyone LOFUCKINGL. he sucks. he says he isnt scared of bomber, bomber will rape his noob ass. bomber raped whitera and whitera is way better than him. Idra, Select and the others are way better than him. he sucks.

I kind of hope there's only like...one successful korean in this tourney. If they get 1-2-3 I'd feel like it'd been hijacked a bit. I'm probably being irrational. Maybe because I didn't watch any of this GSL and am not watching GSTL either so I'm not really a fan of any Korean players.

IMO Group B is as easily hard as C...I can't believe nobody else realizes this.

MMA is similar skill to Bomber, even though I'd give Bomber the edge.

Kiwi and Sjow are the same level as Idra and Select (Kiwi has back and forth record vs Idra/Select and Sjow has winning record vs Select)

A well-practiced Sheth can easily rival Ret and Moonan is underrated.

Tyler is easily the weakest link in both groups and will be a walkover in C.

Hence, B = C.

Nani and Losira will cruise through A and D...there's simply nobody in the same level in their groups. In fact, the rest of A/D are a joke compared to C/D. Group A's 2nd can be drew/Slush/Moon...pretty much a toss-up. Group D's 2nd will be Haypro and incontrol will get last in his group.

Top 3 in each:
A: Nani/SLush/Moon
B: Kiwi/MMA/Sheth
C: Bomber/Select/Idra
D: Losira/Haypro/TLO
