I think Naniwas chances aren't to bad as well. But my personal main interest is in AcE he is such a cool guy and I can't wait to see how he is playing now! 4-1 in Up and Down :D Shame HuK did not even get into code a ! Guess he could get a seed if he wins a major tournament. probably best match ups regarding background stories : PartinG-MKP Naniwa-Nestea obvious :D | ||

Creator, TheSTC, and NesTea are all EXTREAMLY amazing players/"programmers" so you may want to get your facts straight in the future cause those 3 should all give Nani alot to handle he could lose all three games an not feel bad about it they're all really good lol. I expect him to come out of the group second behind NesTea though he could just as easily lose against everyone in group as well. | ||

Parting is currently being overshadowed by Squirtle and MC and Marineking hasn't been dominating recently at all. Most overrated group. | ||

Why is Violet seeded? I thought he had said he would not be playing in Code S and would decline any invites. | ||

"lower-tier" YuGiOh - King Of the code A Symbol - 2nd IronSquid, 2nd MLG spring arena 2. PartinG - last seasons ro4 MKP - 1st winter arena, 1st mlg columbus, 2nd spring arena 1 yeah overrated players... | ||

This is also the most volatile group, which makes it the group of death. PartinG's relatively mediocre PvZ and the possibility of fight 2x Z in a row. MKP recently lost to all three in the group. Symbol is absolutely on fire the last few months. To a lesser extent, so is YogiOh. Any combination of them making out would not be a surprise, really. Plus: MKP vs PartinG are always pretty epic. MKP's rematch against YugiOh who knocked him into U&D. Symbol as the next hot Zerg. All these add up to make this the most entertaining group. | ||

Grp B: Creator, Nestea - Creator will make it 2-0 (in series), he is very good @ pvp and pvz (imo pvt may be his worst MU) and will overcome naniwa and nestea, and Nestea to beat TheSTC and Naniwa. Grp C: Squirtle, Gumiho - Gumiho has some good TvT Skills, he may even make first place. Grp D: Genius, MVP - I like Line, I like Zenex, but he is not Code S calibre. Happy will fall to MVP in the 5th series. Grp E: Supernova, Ganzi - MC looked more solid in PvT lately, but I honestly think, his builds and strategies are outdated and will be figured out due to the large preparation time for Supernova and Ganzi. Grp F: Marineking, Symbol - Sry Parting Bro! But one matchup won't carry you through this time! Grp G: DRG, Maru - Oz looked very shaky lately and this group is very hard. And for Violet, I don't think the GSL System with the amount of preperation time fits to him, don't expect too much here! Grp H: Ace, Leenock - I don't like Ace anymore after he showed to be a very bad loser (GSTL final) in his post-U/D Interview. But you have to accept that he might be the best player in this grp and showed to be mentally stable. Leenock will ride on his beastly ZvT to 2nd place. I think the player pool we have here is insane. Everyone is just really good, so each group is really hard to pedict and we will see a lot of surprises. MC is too versatile as a player to be 'figured out' - he is one of the players who is virtually a master of any style like MVP. That said one thing I have figured out if predictions for GSL are pretty worthless. Any player can beat any here on a given day. It's lnot like BW where you just knew someone would be near impossible to beat. | ||

He may not be Code S material for very long if he doesn't step up his game. Symbol is absolutely on fire the last few months. -->Sure, but is it worth caring about. Symbol might just go out early.....I require results at the GSL level before I annoint someone as being a new zerg hope. To a lesser extent, so is YogiOh. -->Some player who has not performed to what the expectations have been. Constantly has impressed CodeA /Sometimes Code S Casters. He did OK during the Up/Downs, but was nothing outstanding. We're still waiting for him to show something to make us really say he belongs in the top 20-40 players in the world. Any combination of them making out would not be a surprise, really. Plus: MKP vs PartinG are always pretty epic. MKP's rematch against YugiOh who knocked him into U&D. Symbol as the next hot Zerg. All these add up to make this the most entertaining group. Edit: My stuff in bold. | ||

Everyone loses matches sometimes. | ||

The guy must be top 3 of the most skilled players in SC2, one of the only ones recently to win a macro TvZ against a good opponent (in B4). | ||
