Naniwa's group is actually really lucky for him, it could potentially go:
Naniwa > Puzzle
Ryung > MVP [Ryung is a TvT god, and MVP isn't quite on his highest level right now, still high, but not untouchable]
Naniwa > Ryung
MVP > Puzzle
Ryung > MVP [Could go either way]

DRG gets to play his best matchup only, haha.

Naniwa has a pretty tough group tbh, and so does nestea. Groups overall are super balanced though. It's not like that one time they had nestea mvp and naniwa all in the same group of death.

I would say Naniwa has a easy group actually, out of his opponents, 2 of them are terrible at V p. Plus with mvp playing so badly this days(watched his stream, and he was shaking his wrist a lot), I would say if naniwa doesn't get through then I would really wish that GomTV stop giving out seeds.


Naniwa does have a very reasonable group. That being said, a Code S player being "terrible v P" is not the same as any other player being "terrible v P".

meh, we will see, I don't really like naniwa, but it will be interesting to see if he can survive in a tournament where opponents can prepare for you.

Zerg has always been an elite squad in GSL. Very few new players are introduced per season but those who make it in tend to be high-quality, unlike T or P new-comers. Let's see how BBoongBBoong does.

Are the new maps available in NA server?

imo group A would be the group of death, if DRG wasnt queueing into 3 terrans...
Group F it is - so many high quality players now though each season of GSL that goes by it gets harder to pick a new group of death.
Cant wait for the games!! :D
If you dont like something, then that should be reason enough to try and change it

Yes, his TvP has improved immensely. I was never a big fan of his (always preferred MMA and Ganzi) but I am now. He is looking good.

QFT! I really wish there are more good zergs to cheer on. BBoong is pretty inconsistent, I watch his game play in the gstl and I don't think he is high enough calibre, of course he might be better with preparation, who knows :/

Out of code S zergs, only drg, curious, leenock & nestea have the ability to stay in code S consistently. The really good upcoming zergs are still stuck in code A: Seal, Symbol; or in code B: life. IMO, it's harder for a zerg to advance through code a and b. You get owned when you meet a weak match-up or someone who's good against your style. Either that or you raise your base skill level and start raping everyone with ease.

Zergs have a considerable disadvantage in GSL where opponents have time to prepare for their playstyle. It's a big advantage for terran though.

I fear for DRG.. I think JJ and Taeja can knock him out, don't think stc will take a game off anyone.

It is strange that July 2-0 crushes Genius in code a like 2 weeks before Genius goes on in the next season to make the finals and still gets no respect.

He plays too aggressive to be honest and he takes such huge risks that its impossible to not doubt July.

DRG and jjakji will advance. I can't see anything else happening unless there is a crazy all-in or cheese that occurs.

jjakji's worst matchup is TvT (statistically is his worst matchup, but it is still 60% and as of late it seems much better than that).*

DRG's ZvT seems unstoppable especially by low Code S (such as Taeja and StC).

*His last 10 TvT's he has won 8 of.

Both TaeJa and StC are TvZ specialist tho.
There isn't alot more of better TvZ player in the scene atm in my opinion. Jjakji, Gumiho, MMA are the main one to come to my mind. I would rate TaeJa/StC just behind these 3 for this match up. ( along a lot of other... like aLive, Polt.. )

IMHappy. He has like above 80% win rate TvZ

I'd rate TaeJa on the same level as Gumiho TvZ, StC slightly behind.

I agree, but a TvZ specialist (in my opinion) isn't necessarily good enough to beat DRG. I mean there is a chance but I would bet on DRG.

Lol no MVP will crush face, I doubt he will still be in a slump after how he crushed in Iron Squid.

I see MVP and Puzzle getting through this.
