Bombers group looking not too bad...but I'm afraid he will play like shit if I'm confident about him advancing. :/

Also lol @ Huk and Grubby. Kinda sad how desperately Gom wants to have some crapy foreigners in the GSL.

Hm, it's going to be difficult for grubby to advance. Huk has a better chance, i think. On the other hand, i think grubby's a bit better than huk atm.

Group A is monstrous, nothing to say really, anyone but vampire has a good chance, i'd say.
Group B has Taeja as favourite, after that happy and squirtle fighting for second place.
Group C, symbol has a good chance, i think bbyong as second, but hope grubby as second (gogo foreigner)
Group D, I think Hero and bomber, Hero is playing quite well, and i'm betting on bomber going on a tear.
Group E, I have no real favourite here, except for the standard foreigner bias. I think this is the best group for kespa players.

This is all imo, of course.

It's a fucking shame that out-dated players like Grubby and HuK are prioritized over the likes of badasses like GLSnute (4-0 Symbol, 2-1 Life, 4-0 Grubby, 3-2 Stephano) and Acer.Nerchio/Scarlett Get it together GSL!

not everybody they might want to invite will accept the invitation, for various reasons. also i realize you're Norwegian, and Snute was very impressive at HSC, but i don't know that one foreign tournament is enough of a justifaction for a GSL seed. if Snute gets a few more results like that, i'll consider him worthy. there's still another seed to go though, so maybe it will be one of the names you mentioned. and Grubby isn't out dated, he's looking better than he ever has in sc2. if anything he's not quite at the level for GSL just yet, i'll give you that.
I agree with this.

Not entirely disagreeing, but take a look at IPL5. HuK got through YoDa and Ryung, only lost to Sniper and Life (then again the only people who could maybe not lose to both of them right now are Leenock, viOLet, and HerO), and he's been doing damage in some teamleagues. He's obviously not as good as Liquid'HuK, but he's still one of the best foreigners out there, and that says a lot for him not being Zerg

Yeah, HuK is slumping etc. but in the grand scheme of things, he was still the highest-ranking foreigner at IPL5 IIRC. (13th place lol) He might be able to squeak through. His group is certainly one of the "tamer" ones, by U&D standards.

Still though, the U&Ds are a rough place for any foreigner to be seeded into. I hope they do well, but I can't see this going smoothly for either HuK or Grubby. Please prove me wrong, foreigner hopes

Let me be honest, I don't know why ANY foreigners are getting seeded into GSL.
-

Excited worried for HerO. Bomber and Genius and ByuL are beatable, but any of those four getting out actually wouldn't surprise me too much.

These groups are pretty tough for Grubby and Huk, but either way, this season is going to be so good, especially with Flash v. Jaedong.

Wow so much hate for grubby. I guess no one was watching when he knocked out several Koreans in IEM and took 2nd place, almost winning a bo5 vs sting to take the title. HuK I guess is because he's been staying in korea and he used to do well in Code S a long while ago. I don't get why so much mad over a couple of non-koreans getting a chance to compete. It's great for viewership and sometimes they even do well. Why does our community have to be so negative towards giving any non-korean a chance to compete in the GSL?

I was so sure I wouldn't get a chance to see any sc2 while in Korea....land jan 5th and Leave jan 10th. Day 1 and day 3 here I come. Hopefully some eg players come along to cheer on Jd. I'd go to everyday if my gf wouldn't murder me. Either way Grubby, MC, JD and Flash!!

the only code B player i could think of that definately better than HuK/Grubby would be by.Rain, but well, we know that story and why he (likely) wont get a seed
not sure who else failed prelims last time/will attempt them this time that would be better
