All groups look pretty stacked talent wise, but groups C and E really stand out in my opinion.
Also, the foreigners will be hard pressed to advance through their respective groups. Mana may be dominant at PvT, but Bomber and jjakji both have the potential to flip the kill switch and absolutely beast that match-up. Thorzain has to deal with Puzzle and Gumiho, so he will have just as difficult of a time making it through. :/

As for predictions:
Group A- Bomber, Hyun
Group B- Puzzle, Gumiho
Group C- Maru, HerO
Group D- Creator, Supernova (can definitely see Supernova placing first in the group if he shows up with the TvP he used to dismantle MC)
Group E- Oz, Life

Group A - Bomber, Keen (tough choice, I voted Keen over Jjakji cuz he seems to have better TvT)

Group B - GuMiho, Puzzle (Gumiho comes from a SlayerS all kill, he is easily the favorite here)

Group C - aLive, HerO (aLive beat Hero in EG Teamleague, and should beat Maru in his best matchup which is TvT)

Group D - Creator, SuperNova (Nova proved his worth at IEM, and came back strong since he signed with mTw)

Group E - Oz, viOlet (Oz won all previous games vs viOlet, but both should easily take out the rest of the group. Ryung seems to be slumping since the GSTL final)

Surprised so many people still vote for Bomber to advance, clinging to memories of past glories. I'd put my money on HyuN and Jjakji, with Keen the next choice if HyuN goes derp mode, but in Bo1's HyuN should go ok I think.

Bomber can still beat, well, I wouldn't say "anyone when he's in a good day", but definitely a few top tier players...

I want that he comes back to where he belongs, Code S, and the higher steps of it

Get that damn consistency Bomber ^_^

Group A - Bomber and HyuN
Group B - Sniper and Gumiho
Group C - aLive and Shine
Group D - Creator and SuperNova
Group E - Life and Oz

Just my my predictions and in some cases hopes (looking at you Bomber get back on track! )
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

If Life and Hyun don't make it into Code S this might be the least impressive group of Korean zerg ever assembled in a season. Korean zergs, outside Life and Hyun, have been looking extremely uninspiring lately, with DRG falling on his face in set after set and every one else looking very mortal (except for Curious until he dropped 2 straight sets in the WCS). Nerchio and Stephano and to a lesser extent Vortix and Sortof and maybe even JRecco all are either better or more promising than basically all of the Code S zergs, despite Zerg generally being stronger than it has in the past. I don't know what's going on in Korea but they need to get their shit together. The KESPA zergs will probably come to the rescue. Based on recent performances, in another couple months Roro, Effort, JD and Soulkey should have surpassed basically all of the GOM zergs.
To be is to be the value of a bound variable.
