Quite many swedes in the groups although there probably could've been some better players. Like Naama, ELFITTAJA, Satiini or Serral. It's very nice for the swedish home audience though.

Pretty crazy groups I don't think anyone can predict even the finals or the winner of this.
So many players that could win a certain match up and players.

Wow, MaNa's and Nerchio's groups - compared to ThorZaIN's and TaeJa's - are walk in the park. Good for my countrymen

Korean oriented distribution of players? :D Not gonna happen. Maybe they should put all of them in one group and call it survival of the fittest.

Can't think of a single NA player that could compete amongst these groups. I always watch ForGG's stream. He has an exciting, aggressive style. He took some games off Taeja in a finals of a tournament recently. Would be nice to see him take a whole tournament for once.

Then they should have been at the previous events and earned qualification points/spots.

Full line-up was determined by qualification. And not a NA-player made it to the top-8 in a DH this year.

There are no players from any China, SEA and South America as well. I don't see a problem. The only "problem" is that there are no koreans from non-korean teams. The only player who qualified - Polt - decided not to attend. I would love to see Life, Rain or Leenock in Europe.

Holy group 4


Pretty much, I guess I know which tournament I'll follow more closely between IEM and Dreamhack (though the fact that IEM is in Singapore really makes me wanna watch), group 4 is just way too good.

@nimdil: You won't see Rain or any kespa player at any non-mlg event anytime soon, mlg has exclusive rights and I highly doubt that they will give up their "kespa factor" any time soon.

My bets
1.Stephano, Taeja, TheSTC, Fraer, Sjow
2.Mana, Bly, StarNaN, Socke, SaSe
3.Nerchio, Monchi, Targa, TLO, Dimaga
4.Thorzain, ForGG, Naniwa, Hero, Ret

My perspective
Group 1
Stephano has three terrans in his group and one protoss which can give him a small favor, also because he's doing well lately.
Taeja is for me the favored over TheSTC, Fraer and Sjow. While although Fraer has the same small favored as Stephano he will not be able to beat TheSTC.
Looking at SjoW lately I don't think he's able to beat even one of the players, maybe taking one game.

Group 2
At first I said Bly first place, but I think Mana won't let him do that. StarNaN is doing well lately and will beat both Socke and SaSe in PvP, while I think I will give Mana a small favor over StarNaN, but had to think three times before saying.
Bly will have an more easier shout because he just has to practice against Protoss, although he only had a few successes lately.

Group 3
Looking at the results Monchi did well against Nerchio in the past, but even when Nerchio losses again this time will favor the group, cause his ZvZ is mighty enough to take down both TLO and Targa.
Having watched some of TLO's games lately, I think I will favor Targa above TLO for this tournament. And Dimaga might take a game, but won't win a single bo3 unfortunately, cause he's a great guy.

Group 4
Seeing the luck that Ret doesn't have in all tournaments I put him last, but he's still a great player, I just can't look in his practicescheme.
Thorzain will beat both Ret, Naniwa and ForGG only losing to Hero.
But Hero will lose to both Naniwa and ForGG, while ForGG beats Ret and NaNiwa.
That makes the group clear.

The BYOC
From the BYOC participants so far I think Elfi, Sage, Ziktomini and Sortof will advance, but still depends on the bracket.
But I also guess Giant will pass.... oh wait :D


Going to Dreamhack it will be fun watching my bets and the real outcome, but the players I said will qualify, the groups will be far different, especially the one having Elfi and Sage.
Winners: It is difficult, but it's possible.

I can't decide between group one and four at all...

Poll: Group of Death?

Group Four (20)
 
54%

Group One (13)
 
35%

Group Three (3)
 
8%

Group Two (1)
 
3%

37 total votes

Your vote: Group of Death?

(Vote): Group One
(Vote): Group Two
(Vote): Group Three
(Vote): Group Four


I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)
