Your vote: Hardest Group?

(Vote): Group A
(Vote): Group B
(Vote): Group C
(Vote): Group D
(Vote): Group E



For the insane amount of champions and Code S-potential players, I believe these are good groups. Group B seems pretty tough. *Groups with 5 instead of 6 players are NOT getting any additional players.

my first big topic ^.^

Hardest group is easily group E, MKP and MMA? No way either of them are not getting out of that group.

My predictions:
Group A: Nestea and Ghostking
Group B: Bomber and Fin (alive can easily take this as well, I don't believe in Puzzle anymore, too inconsistant)
Group C: Ryung and Polt
Group D: MC and... anyone else. Don't believe Seed/Hack/Tree/Zenio/Virus are Code S material.
Group E: MMA and Marineking

MC with the easiest group. I believe group of death is Group B.

Group B is the hardest by far, that's just ridiculous. Every single one of those players could be Code S.

Which is why I believe it isn't the hardest group. I don't think B4, Heart, Ace or Killer can challenge MMA or Marineking the slightest.

So its easier for those two players.

By comparison: tell me who definitely won't advance from group b. Tell me who definitely will advance. IMO they're all really close in skill. Thus: group of death

It's almost unfair how many great players are in Groups B and E.
Many great players will be staying in Code A, that's for sure.
Not only is it much less notoriety, but the prize pool is so much smaller.
I almost hope that my favorite players like MMA and Polt go down, since they get so much exposure and opportunities in foreign tournaments, but I love seeing them play their best vs the best opponents, so I still want them to advance.

I would say Curious for sure won't get out.
As for Maru, I'd say he has a better chance than Fin but I'm a Fin fanboy so I'm a little bias.

Wierd how Ganzi said if he didn't win he couldn't go to Red Bull. Seems like Red Bull event is right after U&Ds, not interfering. Maybe travel time interferes, but I'm sure GOM would make adjustments like they have for Bomber and Puzzle.

Damn, group B looks like an authentic group of death, all the players in there are at least Code S material and at their best champion quality.

I think NesTea, Byun, Polt, Jjakji and MC got easy groups relative to their skill.
Group E looks nice for MKP, 2 Protoss, and not the highest level shouldn't give him too much problems, and B4 hasn't impressed me, so I expect him to take him out as well. It will probably come down to the matches between Heart, MMA and MKP.

Of course this is U&D, which is BO1 so weirder stuff has happened, also with the latest patch, we might continue to see a trend of surprising upsets.

Very true, BO1 , anything can happen.

Who do you think makes it out of Group D? I'm kinda assuming MC gets out, but he hasn't played the best recently. But other than MC, I cannot pick someone... Maybe Seed? Or forever Code S Virus?

I feel for the people in group E.

With top 2 advancing, and being in a group with MKP and MMA, that's gotta hurt lol

Group B disgustingly stacked, every player has a chance.

A - byun & nestea, maybe july
C - jjakji polt or ryung
D - easiest group, MC & Zenio
E - MKP & MMA

Virus and Seed are my picks for that.

I'm thinking

Group A: Nestea + JYP
Group B Maru + Bomber
Group C Jjakji + Polt
Group D Virus + Seed
Group E MMA + Marineking

I hope MMA and MKP both get out of group E, but I don't see that happening (would be too good to be true) :/

Hmmm. JYP's PvT vs Ghostking?
And Ryung TvT is still good, even though he got raped by Happy. Could beat Polt and Jjakji.
Virus did beat MC in RO32 Code S, but Seed over MC? I'd go with MC's PvP over Seed's.
Surprised you picked Maru over aLive. I picked ForGG along with Bomber but thats because I'm fan of ForGG. Realistically, I'd say Alive and Bomber. Would love to see Puzzle's A game though. (S game )
Other than that, I agree with you.

So true, things are never what they seem... ESPECIALLY IN THE GSL. But I really believe MKP and MMA can get out of this group.

VINES is going to make it out of his group. He's just such a powerful darkhorse right now.

E: MKP / MMA cause dey g00d
