He said at Lone Star Clash that he's going back to europe for a week and then returns to the US for IPL4, so I guess he won't be at MLG.

When will MLG change their format btw?

Will group play be as meaningsless as in past MLGs? With people going 0-3 and then being placed in winner's bracket?

That's IPL, in MLG going 0-4 puts you in losers bracket, while going 1-3 puts you in losers but one round higher and so on. Only one person wins the group.

I didn't read all the comments so sorry if this has been answered allready but is it even physiclly possible for DRG to stay till the end of the tournament and play his GSL group? There is only like 6 hours between my estimated end of MLG and his group.

edit: same obviously goes for TheStC

HuK LuKing out yet again. Even though he has slim chances against violet and red.

Every single group looks really scary. I think all players have a decent chance to advance but it will be hard for Socke/Grubby/Haypro and Demuslim.

Going to be awesome

Not sure where you guys heard it, but Stephano is coming to MLG Columbus with Bling. Just reconfirmed it on Skype.

If Nestea is dropping out, will IM still send MVP and Losira to the bracket?

Perhaps we'll get to hear the U.S. national anthem again as Stephano takes the tournament!

Nah I don't think it'll be quite so easy for him this time...not that difficulty seems to matter to that button-pressing machine.

I'd be glad to be in group C if i came from the open bracket. But at the same time, the players are evenly matched, so it's gonna be interesting

Will Symbol, Inori and Polt be attending MLG like said on Twitter a while ago?

So, if I buy 30 dollars gold membership, is it 100% guaranteed that nothing will change and I will indeed have full HD/Beta/whatever access to all 4 Championships this year?

Ret gunna dominate zvp in his group and probably win the zvz too. I'm liking his chances.

someone asked Parting about his group: "group of D eath"

You may laugh now

Lol maybe mkp should have lost to get the 2nd seed. super easy group B. Oh well. Ganzi is teamless so maybe that'll help marineking. He's beaten MC before. He should beat Sase. I believe in him. Huk got a decent group too. If he can beat violet he can probably come in first
