D R G ! I love his attitude: "If I had to be honest, I haven't paid any attention to pool play. I'm preparing to face the Korean players since no matter what, I'm going to win all my games and make it to the Round of Four as the first place in my group. "

I literally, can not wait to see him in action at Anaheim. This guy is a beast among beasts. God the anticipation for MLG is killing me.

Definitely this. He said it himself, he wasn't the MOST confident in his ZvP. When you're facing contenders who have won premiere events, you can't just ignore them...

I think he will underestimate Naniwa but he will win all of his other matches so it doesent matter. He will own it up DRG style!

Hes probably talking skillwise, the fame and being a total baller boxer is, is not going to threaten DRG much.

DRG fighting! All he needs to do is steal Nestea's ZvP and he's golden!

This guy's ZvT is ridiculous. As long he he doesnt get cheesed out from ZvZs I personally would say he is not the darkhorse, but the favorite to win this tournament.

Eh, I don't think it's cockiness from DRG here or even guys like oGsMC when they say they expect to win the finals and never drop a game in doing so. It's more that sporting confidence of believing that if you don't think you'll win, why bother playing. Even American sports players, especially American football players, will never admit to thinking that they will lose their next match. So while predicting a tournament championship after consecutive wins is 'cockiness' superficially, I find it more of an attitude or self-confidence check for the players. The ones that say they expect to engage in hard-fought SCII matches against respected opponents are closer to the truth in many cases, generally. That is just a slightly different mindset or mentality from the players who only publicly say that they expect to win always and forever. How the players present themselves is different from what they are actually thinking or even what they believe.

Anyway, best of luck to DongRaeGu in Anaheim. Very excited to see his Zerg playstyle transplanted in an American setting.
