People forget that goswser always beats Polt. He's pretty much Polt's biggest worry out of all the NA players.

Unless a good player comes from the qualifier there's no reason for Group 3 to be considered a group of death.

Group 1 is a much, much closer battle for 2nd place, even group 7 is harder.


I think its fair to assume the player from the qualifier will be pretty good. That's usually how it goes anyway.

Still, there are a good number of better candidates for group of death. People overrate Idra's chances.


I think Idra has no shot at advancing and I would still say that its likely to be the hardest group. Polt and Goswser both should make the top 8 in this tournament unless the qualifiers are all insanely good, in which case, this group would have a very good player added to it.

I'd be interested in which groups you see as harder than this when you consider that they will all have a 4th player.

Really excited for this! Seems really top notch for an NA tournament ^_^
I'm definitely going to be watching almost every day of this.

Don't like:
MajOr vs KiLLeR
Fenix vs NesTea

Love:
Everything else!

When don't they? He couldn't even beat Minigun to get into MLG. Yet people are voting his group a "group of death". It's laughable. These groups just yet again show the importance of qualifiers. I honestly would not be surprised if every single player who manages to qualify makes it through these groups. Except maybe Group 2, Scarlett and Violet are no joke.

Obviously group 3 is the group of death, although compared to the GSL groups with Koreans, no group here looks scary at all.

Only thing Idra has going for him is that ZvZ is his best matchup, so he might be able to beat Goswser. But really, it's going to be Polt + the qualified Korean that gets out.

- Players are allowed to chose any region under the new WCS system.

- Lots of Koreans choose NA cause they expected EZPZ competition.

One of the great things about this format is if you bomb the first online round, you don't have to pay for your travel to New York if you don't think you will go undefeated that is.

In theory he should be able to study polt a bit, since he streams a lot(but turns off VODs). I have hopes for Idra just as long as he keeps his head straight.

My picks!

Group 1
HerO: His PvT is good.

Group 2
viOLet: Really depends on the ZvZ between Scarlet and Violet. Dont remember seeing how strong either of them are in an official match.

Group 3
Polt: A korean terran vs. two top tier NA zergs. Shouldn't be too close. Gowser might be able to take a game off polt.

Group 4
Ryung: Ryung is a korean terran with a real teamhouse behind him.

Group 5
NesTea: Unless he throws cause hes nestea.

Group 6
Snute: should win unless Vibe tricks him in the ZvZ.

Group 7
Sen: Foreigner destroyer. Does not yield to anything but a korean.

Group 8
mOOnGLaDe: has advantage of practicing vs terran only and should be good enough to win. Illusion could upset. Dont know jack about maker.
