ummm, curious, can someone tell me how it is a reward to win the group? So, someone wins a group so that player gets a bye into the quarters and his reward in the quarters is to get to play another player that got first in another group? Considering IEM doesn't normally do a backdoor (losers bracket) how exactly is it a good thing to win a group then since it would be harder...

DRG and MMA are definitely favored with MC right behind those two.

all the groups are similar, idk why ppl vote for group D more than the others. May be IdrA fans are too many. SuperNova and DRG ezpz.

Wow I am so excited for this event, I actually think an argument can be made that every group is close to the group of death, although Group A I feel MMA, JYP, and Violet will go untouched until they play each other but socke always makes ridiculous comebacks so we'll see. Can't wait >.<

Where did you get that information?

It would be a shame if he stopped playing.

wow this is the first time i see Idra and a group and not think he's the favorite. in fact i think he might be last place in his group o.0

I hope he proves me wrong Im a huge Idra fan and would love to see him come out ahead
