I think JD actually has an okay chance in his group, MKP hasn't been playing well recently and I think Jaedong can take a ZvZ.
Group E looks ridiculous.

My sole reason for that is simply that Jaedong, being a Kespa zerg, has probably had to practice more vP matchups for Proleague than anything else (he certainly has played in enough) to the point where I would say his ZvP is probably a matchup I would fear. The only real big advantage I would give to Life is that he knows the GSL maps a lot better than JD so if it comes to a map choice game its the advantage to Life over JD but I dont think thats enough to warrant picking him. | ||

Can't wait to see it in action. | ||

If MC wanted to play PvZ, then he has limited options. Line was taken. Symbol, Curious, Life, and Sniper look like they're in good shape. NesTea is on a team he is partnered with (and a pretty good friend to boot). So you have DRG and JD left. DRG is slumping, sure, but DRG can surge back to form at any moment, while JD is good but unproven. (Also JD recently lost to JangBi, who isn't impressive at all.) MC had none of those options, as you're only allowed to pick from Tier 4.

MC was already practicing with JD when he was preparing for DRG by this stage they must know eachother pretty well. So keen for this season now so many good groups. With big hitters. Feel it may leave the finals a bit of a low though | ||
