Yay HuK got the lucky easier group. I really want to see him back in Code S. He could place first in his group.
Morrow hasn't decided his race?
I feel most of the ones that make it to code S will be the SlayerS
He plays ZvP, ZvT and TvZ, that's why I put Z/T for his race

wow. group b is stacked. Nada, boxer, morrow, cliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide and july fighting^^
|
please huk. please . i know you can.

As always Huk gets the easy group and probably will slip through to Code S again... Lol. Huks great but come on, he isn't at the Code S standard - so many players from Code A deserve to be there more than him.
|
Also I don't understand why group D is being polled as easiest. Taeja is an amazing terran, boxer has been re-emerging with some new strategies and asd has provided many upsets. Genius and squirtle are also two very capable protoss players. Cezanne is probably the outsider I'd say of this group, but he still definitely could take games off any one of these players.

Poor Morrow, that's a very tough group but I think he still has a chance to make it out.
Huk has a fairly good chance of advancing as well and I'm excited to see Alicia try to make it to Code S too.
None of the groups are super easy, which is definitely good for competition in GSL! Yay!

Group B is probably the most stacked, and realistically Morrow is going to be tossed around like a dog toy. Ryungs been slumping recently as well, as much as I hate to say it, but hes probably going to fall out of this group. I want to say Bomber, but he just hasn't impressed in the last few months at all... I feel like Bomber's had one too many "He's totally the second best Terran in the world after MVP" 's without actually delivering in any notable tournament really. I've never felt like Killer could ever win Code S, but his round 8 appearance two GSLs back was pretty impressive. I think we'll see Gumiho advance and second will depend on who delivers between bomber, tassadar and killer.

I still struggle to understand why MorroW dont play ZvZ. I mean he must have played it on ladder plus he can find some practice partner. Having 2nd race for 1 matchup is demanding and only can worse his skills.

Poor MorroW

I wish they'd stop seeding foreigners into up&down and code s. seems unfair and lackluster based on the past but it is what it is. i think group a is the easiest with b being the hardest.
|
Morrow got my support. Losira as well. HerO as well. Zenio can go back to Code S to battle IdrA there .

He did play ZvZ for a long time so it's not because the lack of practise. I guess partly because he wasn't very successful in it and partly because he simply likes TvZ better. I'm not sure his TvZ win percentage in tournament games is even better than his tournament ZvZ was so the "terran is op" argument that some seem to attribute to his change is a bit lacking. He'll have to answer for himself (I think he has previously but I don't remember exactly where or how he expressed himself).

Oh God...I reserve my right to refuse to do stats for the Up-and-Downs. Too much info for my brain to make interesting, and too much typing for my hands to recover from...

Group B looks like the 'group of death' for this season. Poor morrow. One thing that might help him is that there are no other Zergs. Two advantages: His PvZ doesn't seem to beat top Zergs. Also, others are less likely to prep as much for Zerg.
I don't think he has a chance.

Because Terran is always the victor in a ZvZ.
Question, is the poll asking which group has the hardest opponents or is the hardest to guess who the top two are?

JYP literally got the best group he could ask for. The only Terran is Clide, and he's pretty bad against Protoss. His opponents are also not the strongest compared to the others.
B is 100% the toughest with six players and Bomber, Gumiho, Killer, etc.

The poll is asking which group is the hardest to get out off, sorry I didn't make it clearer.
