People are hyping PartinG up to be the best Protoss in the world because of one matchup. One. His PvZ is mediocre, his PvP is just as mediocre. His PvT happens to be godlike, but people extrapolate that way too much. Unfortunately for Parting anti-fans, he has a group full of Terrans and has very little chance of losing. Imagine if he was in a group with Oz, Squirtle and MKP - suddenly, his chances of advancing are very small. Same goes for if more Zergs had advanced. For the record, as an MC fan, I watch Parting's play and think that his PvT is better than MC's . But MC's PvZ is significantly better than Parting's, and it annoys me that there are very few Zergs doing well enough to face either of the two, because it means that PvZ is quite rare to see nowadays. Also, while PvP is a shitty matchup in general, MC is widely considered to have a better PvP than Parting. Then there's Genius, who is also a god at PvT, having a better record against MKP than Parting, and is faaaaar better at PvZ and PvP. I must be in the minority, but I still think Parting is overrated. | ||

Very weird if you ask me, but nobody reacted to it, so it seems to be normal for them... | ||

That's tough, no tvt for Maru Being the only one of your race against three of the same race is pretty sweet actually, since in this case everyone will be focusing mostly on their vP matchups, giving Maru partially an advantage since he only needs to practice his TvP, and partially because the others will focus less on their PvT in order to boost their PvP. | ||

And since noone seems to take the kid for real, they might focus on their PvP even more. Maru has a great chance to get out of this group. Especially because Oz and MC are all but PvT specialists. | ||

Especially because Oz and MC are all but PvT specialists. Yup, my gut tells me Maru will roll over MC, so my predictions for this group all depend on the Squirtle/Oz match really. Option 1.  MC <  MaruOz > SquirtleMaru > OzMC < SquirtleOz > SquirtleOption 2. MC < MaruOz < SquirtleMaru < SquirtleOz > MCMaru > OzI'm really, really hoping my second prediction will come true if Group C goes as expected, in other words PartinG in first, MKP in second, as that would bring a MKP/Squirtle rematch in the Ro8, as well as another Terran for PartinG to crush, further helping the cause of bringing us the epic PartinG/MKP grand finals we all want. (Unless Squirtle is able to 2 base colossi down MKP again, that would also be fun  ) | ||

Virus and SuperNoVa are both in great form, Genius since he's actually been practicing is a player to be feared, and while NaNiwa isn't as strong of a player, for some reason I can see him taking wins anyway, a phenomena that I really can't explain. Honestly all the groups are groups of death; this Ro16 is stacked. | ||
