So why did people vote group D as group of death? Only because Idra is in it? Fanboys have a lot of power apparently.

With or without DRG in it, the group is easy to predict. With DRG in it, it was DRG + Supernova/Kas, without him in it, it's Supernova + Kas

Idra's probably going to go 1-4 or 0-5, judging by his latest results.

IdrA's group isn't easy but it isn't hard, either. The only player that outclasses him is SuperNova - nobody else is a favorite against a player training like him.

This is really IdrA's group to lose - if he goes out 1-4 or 0-5 then I don't even know what he's doing in Korea.

Kas is an absolute beast, he's probably better than IdrA.

But that was before IdrA went to Korea and started training with the Slayers team. We'll see I guess, IdrA has been disappointing as of late, but he has the conditions for getting out of his group unlike in MLG where he had to play against Oz and then Nestea.

On paper Idra is supposed to be very solid, having years of strong BW and SC2 mechanics and experience, and now training with the Slayers team. Recently though, he plays as if perpetually on tilt, and has shown really poor performances.

I think Kas is currently a stronger player than Idra though. I agree that Idra should be favored against the remainder of his group. I predict that Idra won't get first, but I think he is going to at least survive the groups.

people are forgetting that IdrA's latest opponents were top Korean players ... NesTea, Oz, aLive, TaeJa
this is IEM and whole different story, at Assembly Kas didnt manage to pass the groupstage and at IEM Kiev he lost to DIMAGA ... SuperNova will be the favorite but dont forget that IdrA was practicing for few monts with SlayerS

Why do they always have their tournaments in the middle of the week??? seems like they are cutting tons of viewers just because people have to work.

D was voted group of death by a majority of people because DRG was originally in it. If people will vote group of death now, it will be A for sure.

I'm almost sure no one thinks idra is as strong as he was in the beta anymore

http://www.esl-world.net/masters/#/masters/season6/hanover/news/187208/White-Ra-replaces-ret-at-CeBIT/

Dutch player ret, who qualified in Sao Paulo, is sick and will not travel to the World Championship. Ukrainian White-Ra will replace him in Group B.
On Saturday the Dutch Zerg player wrote on Twitter that he is "super sick and can't sleep". After no improvement during the night he cancelled his participation in the World Championship today.

Due to the limited time-frame the next four players who were eligible, according to the Season Ranking, were not able to come. These are Koreans RevivaL and TOP, Canadian TT1 and Swedens NaNiwa. White-Ra, who shares the 33rd place with NaNiwa and Pomi agreed to take rets place in the tournament. Russian Pomi was not an option due to the visa he would be needing to enter Germany. The Ukranian will now face the No.1 of the ranking, MC.

Group B: MC, elfittaja, Sound, HasuObs, Nerchio, White-Ra
