Mjes, a long Happy vs protoss casted by ToD would be quite fitting.

Personally i am pretty happy that they are keeping it European in terms of casters aswell, and i can't think of any other European caster that is a native English speaker aside from Apollo and TB.

i am a bit disappointed not to have apollo casting

i think apollo and kaelaris would have been a great duo

This caster pairing is announced only for the Ro32, I'm quite certain Apollo will jump in somewhere in the later stages, he's just a bit preoccupied with DreamHack coming up now.

How can anyone think group E is not the group of death?

H has the better Korean Terran, an equally good Protoss and I'm not sure that Kas > Feast and TLO > SortOf, really.

Kas seems like he hasn't hit his stride completely yet while Feast has had a lot of visibility just now and had some results that made heads turn, he just 2-0'd Scarlett today. SortOf returns from training in Korea, I think he can be at least as good as TLO.

Basically this. I would put tlo/kas and feast/sortof as quite even, then Mana > Naniwa and MMA > Shuttle. Overall, H has more skilled players, imo. One of the closest groups, where anyone could easily take it, and it seems Aligulac and most people agree.

I hate to be that guy but for some reason I feel like something's missing in the lineup. I can't pinpoint what it is. A lot of my favourite players are in. But none of the groups feel like they're super exciting.


For me, I stare at this tournament and see a tournament in which 3/4 of the players have been invited, which takes a lot of the excitement away (not necessarily saying that they are bad). But give it two or three seasons and this feeling of mine will surely go away.

Players of Group E has done not very much in a while. But, then, calling MMA stronger than shuttle is hard to justify based on his results the last year.

Uh, what? It's already hard to justify Shuttle being better than someone like Fenix solely based on his results in the last year, I don't see how he can come even close to being considered stronger than or as good as MMA based on their respective results.

MMA has looked better than Shuttle in HotS, even if he hasn't returned to his old peaks. He has done pretty well in the GSTL, and decently in the ATC, whereas Shuttle hasn't really done anything in a LAN setting in HotS IIRC.

Naniwa and Kas level on HotS is unknown (except Kas being nomatch by ForGG during Acer Team Story Cup), it took 4 qualifiers to Shuttle to qualify, and TLO is zerg... Not the group of death for sure, but still maybe the most unpredictable group.

In group H MaNa and MMA have one of the better achievements in the world since HotS has been released, Feast was one of the best player in the qualifiers, SortOf has been training in Korea.

All groups are really stacked, I can't make say who's gonna go in Ro16, I think lucifron has a really good chance though.

omg thanks for pointing that out, missed that Happy and Hasuobs are in the same group. And don't forget it is casted by Kaelaris, known to get endless games. So I assume they will meet 2 times.

Really excited to see ToD casting more big events. I'm also torn on group D, I want both Socke and Dimaga to make it out but MVP is probably going to take the group.
Through victory, my chains are broken.

How is it possible that stephano and grubby are in one group in the vast majority of european major events for quite a long time ??? Maybe statistics tell another story, but it feels like it is like that ;D Sadly Grubby didn't look so good against stephano...
