Racial balance in these group could be a ton better. 4 Z, 4 T, and 8 P. Should be 1 T 1 Z and 2 P in each, instead of having no zergs in half the groups.

naniwa can beat him.

He can yes but it'll be the hardest series for him all tournament. Won't be close to easy.

I think group C is being underrated. I think those are all very good players that are going to give us the best matches. I think MKP and MC have group A pretty well in hand.

I think group B is full of strong players, and while DRG and Naniwa are the clear favorites, both Haypro and Demuslim have been showing very strong abilities, and don't forget Haypro's been in KR for a while now. While a month or so isn't the hugest deal, I have faith that he's learned a lot while there.

I think Oz and Parting have the edge in D, but honestly ruling out Grubby would simply be lacking insight, and of course the stc has a fighting chance to take it.

I honestly think group C has the best possibility for phenomenal games, but I think Ret will win all his PvZs, and it will come down to his games vs Violet, and whether or not Huk can take violet/sase out. Though really, watching Sase play in the RBL I would not be surprised to see him make it out in either first or second. I wouldn't say he's a favorite by any stretch though.

I'm really interested to see who comes up from opens, personally.

I hope Stephano can make it out of the open bracket and be placed in Pool B. Then we will have a rematch of DRG/Stephano and Stephano vs Naniwa. This would be so sick. My money on Stephano to win them both

Bad group for Huk btw he isnt very good vs zerg and a Socke is excellent in PvP gonna be very hard for him
