Just curious, is anyone not from France planning on going to the live event?

I cannot wait for the streaming to start. This tournament is madness.

Any confirmation that they will get the same band, In Uchronia, to do the players' music?

Iron Squid can easily be considered the tournament with the most personality and branding potential. I just wish they took steps to execute this. Take the soundtrack they commissioned for the first tournament, why the fuck can I not buy the soundtrack? All I have are shitty youtube rips, I'm willing to drop $10 on an album that they already produced. But I can't find a single thing, not even on the band's site.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who wants to buy that music.



In Uchronia is already working on Iron Squid Theme. Be patient, they were working on Tales Of the Lane music lately, now Iron Squid is their main focus.


I have no problem being patient, I just want the ability to give them money for an already made product. I don't want to purchase a CD on ebay (don't have an account) and go through customs when shipping (I don't live in the EU) paying an exorbitant price. If this isn't convenient for the customer, how the hell is the management/band making out?

When I search for In Uchronia on the first google page are three links to youtube, a link to a pirate bay torrent that has their songs from youtube in shitty quality, and several soundcloud like services links. No links to an actual band site. No links to actual pay sites.

There are dozens of sites out there that allow artists and organizations to sell digital downloads. Bandcamp looks like the best option since they take a smaller cut than Amazon or iTunes would, but alas my money continues to sit in my wallet. They need to capitalize on this situation.

As far as i remember there were a few Englishmen at the event last year,so i guess that there will be more this time.


My (shitty) predictions :
+ Show Spoiler +
Group A : (T)aLive,(Z)Symbol (I really like (Z)Golden but this will be a difficult group, surprise us ;D )
Group B : (P)Seed,(Z)Life (But (T)Kas got all my support GOGOGO ! )
Group C : (T)MKP,(Z)Scarlett ((P)Brown seems to be a zerg sniper,too bad there is only one)
Group D : (P)MC,(T)LucifroN (or will (Z)Luvsic create the surprise ? )
Group E : (Z)DRG,(Z)Leenock (I wanna say (T)GanZi but those 2 zerg are good and Ganzi seems to have trouble against them )
Group F : (T)MMA,(Z)Nerchio
Group G : (T)Mvp,(Z)Stephano (everything will be decided with (P)MaNa vs (Z)Stephano i think )
Group H :(Z)viOLet,(T)ThorZaIN (i'm not the #1 Fan of Thorzain but i think he can take out (Z)NesTea )
RIP MKP

Can't really comment on GanZi but Scarlett is not overrated at all. If anything people are underrating her a bit (people are more into her hype and less into her skill). Her mechanic is top notch and decision making is solid. Though she is still somewhat prong to mental errors her style is a matchup nightmare.

She is the foreigner Rain fears the most in WCS, and Creator said his record against her in online cups is about 50/50 (but Creator was pretty humble so not sure how accurate) and she is second best foreigner behind Stephano. She'd be underdog against MKP but not many would be surprised if she wins.

I do agree that aLive has better chance than both of them though (slim for Scarlett and about none for GanZi)

Scarlett is amazing yeah but putting her ahead of Nerchio and Naniwa is going a bit too far imo. Both those 2 have proven themselves at several occassions. She is a top foreigner for sure though and I am really looking forward to see her perform at WCS.

No idea. But considering that Paris is 3 hours or less from London, Amsterdam, Bruxelle or Cologne by train, i think many people outside of France could come for the Week End.

I personally wouldn't put her ahead of Nerchio yet, can't really compare to Nani because their style is so different and Scarlett doesn't have that much work (I think Scarlett have better chance vs T and Nani have better chance vs P), that's just the opinion of Korean pros (which can be skewed but less affected by hype).

You forgot about stephano bro.

Seriously though, this is how to distribute groups in a tournament! I didn't watch Iron Squid 1, and I didn't care about Iron Squid II at all until I saw this post - the player list speaks for itself, there's no doubt this is going to be awesome. Only thing I wish could change is to see Polt up there instead of MMA. I don't like MMA, but I love Polt.

Predictions:
+ Show Spoiler +

A: Alive and Symbol
B: Life and Creator
C: MKP and Taeja
D: Impossible to pick. I'd say they all have an equal chance of getting out.
E: Leenock and Sase
F: Genius and Nerchio
G: MVP and Stephano (most obvious group)
H: Violet and Thorzain


How does the tournament continue after groups? A1 plays B2 same as GSL, or A plays H, or what?

MMA is the reigning champion, would be sad without him!

I wonder who is financing some of the teamless players that are heading to the tournament. That being said, I am hoping for Scarlett to take it.

The top four players (who come to Paris) are invited by Iron Squid, their teams do not have to pay for their expenses.

I mean.. Stephano, the player who brings the most viewers to tournaments (in EU/NA) is in the only group with less than 1 korean. All other groups have 2, 3 or 4 koreans.

Hmmm.. :D

Edit : Still incredible to bring the top3 of each race in this tournament


You could say that for Nerchio too since there is MMA, Genius and a foreign zerg in his group and Kaoru is his manager.
The thing it is good if we have some foreigners in the ro16, but both Nerchio and Stephano could be out in ro32 because this tournament is so stacked...
