He's there to prove you wrong His play may not be totally inspiring but he has repeatedly defied critics by advancing further than expected in each GSL.

Rumor has it in the prime house that HongUn has been sparring with some top level zergs and he doesn't drop a single game - like... ever... on any map. I don't know if this is some crazy timing attack or a macro style - I'm really interested in it - Because I'm losing hope in PvZ right now

Also I still don't understand how Bomber and Puma being in the same group is somehow easier than group D.

Kiwi's group is easily the best - I don't know how anyone can say otherwise considering previous MLG results and recent results in general.

DRG is great, but he looked very vulnerable last MLG - Maybe July will do something crazy? I don't know, I just think Puma and Bomber are both better than anyone in group D - which is really scary.

I am picking Idra, Bomber, Ret, and DRG to take their groups.

For one glorious fraction of a second I read:

Awesome groups, though. Especially A and D should be pretty entertaining.

Pool A & C are pretty weak compared to the other two. HungUn will roflstomp his pool.... Bomber vs Puma gonna be an interesting match. More koreans gonna come with every mlg. you can see, that they want competition more than price money, since mlg has a really poor price pool compared to many other tournaments these days....

Pool D is just straight up scary. I'm a pretty big Socke fan, but he would have to play the best day of his life to hope to stand a chance in that group, and even then that may not be enough to win it.

I'm gonna laugh if MKP makes it through the open brackets and gets put in group D.

So these people are confirmed to come to MLG? In Socke's place I would just cancel the trip to the US and hope you get a group like pool A next time.

Group D is cool, but Bomber is going to be the first two time MLG champion.

This is so insanely stacked, pool D is a nightmare! We need some Ukrainian stars at MLGs if we want a foreign win imo, unless HuK can work his magic through a full weekend.

Would be interesting to see how Nerchio would do in a tournament like this.. ^^ Anyway, I think this might be the most insane MLG yet, hopefully the crowd gets a bit bigger and louder again, it didnt quite live up to the other events last time.. :D

What makes Pool D so scary, is that it is extreme hard to predict. Pool B has two heavy favourites and if the open bracket player is not a complete beast, one of them will go 4-1, while the other will stay undefeated (probably Bomber).

Pool D however has no clear favourite. You have 3 Code-S players, 1 former GSL champion and one of the best and consistent players the foreigner scene has to offer.

Socke could become very well the deciding factor here. He has become more than once the bane for HuK´s tournament runs and his PvZ is downright scary for foreigner standarts. Maybe he can upset one of the Korean Zergs and even if he doesn´t, what has Socke to lose? Even if he goes 0-5 in group play, he still isn´t out of the tourney and it is really no shame to lose to any of this players.

IMO, Socke can pretty much only win here, because nobody really expects him to pull something off in this MLG. He is the absolute underdog and in sports, this is a pretty comfortable role.
