MLG hates Huk, he always gets the worst group, on the other hand he should be fine. Group A: I think this is actually Boxer or TLO's group to win. Idra has a shot as well but I've kinda given up hope on him till he goes back to korea and/or fixes his mental issues. A strong open bracket player can take this group though.
Group B: This group is Bomber or Puma's ( Possibly kiwi's if he can be a boss like last mlg) All the matches in this group should be entertaining. Open bracket player will likely struggle in this group.
Group C : This group could honestly go to anyone, solid money says it's Hongun given how solid he is ( and his wide variety of voidray cheeses) but really anything could happen. this is the best pool for an open bracket player to land in.
Group D: Again anyone could win this group, it's stacked with incredibly good players most of whom train in Korea lol. I pity the open bracket player that gets this group ( unless it's like liquid hero)
My hopes I kinda want a July/MC finals or a Hongun/ MC finals
*Cries* No dignitas members makes me super sad but i understand why they aren't there.

OMG that pool D, poor socke! Boxer is in one of the easier groups. Huk again, with 3 PvPs(in a way it's good, cause there are no terrans in that group.) Lets hope mkp does well, if he manges to win is first tourney here it would be epic, but it's a very very tough road, probably get to top 16.

MC? :O
Orlando here i come !!
Edit: Just popped into my mid..... Is he trying to get back to Code S via MLG?
|
Omg koreans are actually gonna do 'badly' in pool play this time, given that 4/5 are koreans in group D. Or 3 if you don't count Huk. But still... Very excited
|
Why are there no dignitas players, btw?
|
|
WOOT, MC is going, fuck yea. also july :D
|
It's great that HongUn finally gets the respect he deserves after getting snubbed from the all-star team in favor of players with only a single great result. He's like Clide in that he's always under-the-radar (people STILL think Genius/Tester are better than him), but three GSL top 4s proves that he's consistently good.

group d has the most talent but unless the patch his i still think the winner comes from pool B in Puma or Bomber. Hope they prove me wrong though!
|
d for death. group d is truly group of death, i predict DRG and MC for top 2 group D though
|
|
All great groups really.
|
Groups B and D is stacked. Incontrol and Socke are going to get their shit rocked.....

I'm actually kinda surprised Ret and Sheth opted to go to Orlando just because they risk burning out before blizzcon. Especially Ret who has IPL3 one weekend, then mlg the next then blizzcon, that's gonna be brutal on his body and his condition.
|
Pool D is clearly the group of death... This tournament looks very promising. Anyone know if IMMvP or IMNesTea will be there? Otherwise they all fighting to be the 2nd best.
|
wow 3 protoss in group D while none in group A, actually group A is the only one without a protoss. Socke is decent but I don't think he can keep up with Huk and MC. It'd be interesting to see which of the two zergs on group D gets the higher standing, July has improved a lot recently.
I think group A and C are the easiest groups to call, I don't see how Idra, Boxer, Rain, and Hongun wouldn't finish in the top 2 of their groups.
|
Can't wait to watch group D. Group of death right there.

No one really expects him to go that far except Artosis. And he was never in the discussion of good terrans before that GSTL all-kill.
