Too bad Thorzain has no chance in making it out of the group. Lol... your talking about Thorzain here, this guy has some of the best T v T out there, he most definetly has a chance, aswell as he can do huge pvt upsets, i think your jumping the gun on Thorzain being out....... Nah. He's a bad TvT player. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/details.php?section=sc2-international&type=players&id=1795&part=games&league=standard&vs=THe loses to almost every Korean he plays TvT and several other besides. Plus he's against Squirtle, one of the best Protoss in the world. He's fucked.
I will be rooting for him like crazy, but sadly I don't see how he can make it out, unless he can take out Squitle in his first Code S match.

Why does MC always get hard fucking groups? Anyway, nice to see violet play his former teammate DRG. Really looking forward to Genius Mvp. I want to see if Mvp will macro and then genius will probably win or if Mvp cheeses let's see if genius can defend that shit.

ROFL I could see Yugioh taking first place in group F.
He's really good against Protoss and Parting is not that great in PvZ.
He's shown that he's capable of taking out MKP.
He's decent at ZvZ. prob a wash against Symbol.
Go go Yugioh!

Yeah. Didn't he just lose to Polt in Dreamhack finals? Guy must have terrible TvT.

Poor Parting rofl, he gets placed into a group with 2 zergs and MKP

Yes, take one series and use it to represent his entire matchup instead of looking at all the data. Good comeback right there.

So happy that ThorZaIN to code S was true, I really think he has a big chance of doing good in the GSL, preparation matches seems to be something that he does well in.
Of course his group is hard, especially as TvT at least statistically is his worst MU, but neither keen or gumiho are unovercomabel imo.

Group F will be sick! Can't wait :D

The thing with Thorzain is that one moment he seems weak, and a couple matches later he smashes some of the best players in the world.
You cannot underestimate him, if he gets to prepare, Thorzain is one of the most dangerous players out there.

Yeah... with everyone upset about MKP's group, it's actually really worst case scenario for PartinG.

Tiers are retarded. So the points in the non-last seasons are almost pointless ¬¬ The way the GSL is set up now and one season being much longer, it makes a lot of sense actually. So many things still happen over the course of one season, that going back more than two months makes the past results almost worthless.
Also, a decay of only 10% makes Season 1 results far from "worthless."

My point is that he recently smashed a high level korean terran. I would say that a recent match with a lot on the line may be somewhat indicative of where he currently stands in the matchup.
I think the real question is how long he will have to prepare in the slayers house. If he has a good amount of time he shoudl have at least a chance, given the practice partners that he has access to. If his situation is anything like his code A debacle he will have an incredibly hard time.

I'll write my predictions, so I can laugh at how much I failed later 
A - Hero, Curious
B - Nestea, Creator (I hope Naniwa proves me wrong though)
C - Squirtle, GuMiho
D - Genius, MVP
E - Supernova, Sniper
F - MarineKing, YugiOh
G - Oz, DongRaeGu
H - Leenock, TaeJa
With Leenock to win the whole thing, obviously.

Nice groups Go go Naniwa!

Most people overestimate Polt, he isnt even Code S level (last season he got seeded & he dropped out of Code A season before that), so for Thorzain to beat him, and then say he will do well vs Code S terrans not comperable. He beat Polt who is at best Code A level. Thorzain will certantly have a chance, but that chance aint big (and I'm a huge Thorzain fan)

Daamm, Thorzain got a pretty bad group, all three are fantastic vT. And it sucks that him and Keen are in the same group, I want them both to go through! Good luck to him!

He's got WAY better chances to take out the 2 terrans than squirtle
