Oh shit, TLO gotta work his ass off again. But he´ll manage.

Interested to see if Naniwa will shake Lucifron´s hand, after being crushed...

Interestingly enough, I have (almost) no doubt that TLO will somehow claw his way out of the group, probably even as 1st, only to stumble at a later point. He's a european version of Bomber. Can't wait for the day he proves me wrong though :D

...how does that algorithm work?... not meaning to fanboy because he's danish, but Babyknight took out Stephano, Grubby and NaNiWa last season... how can the chances of his group be:
Welmu 63.44%
Ret 59.86%
ThorZaIN 49.97%
BabyKnight 26.73%

I know it's rough competition... but really...?

Agree with you dude. I dont know how its possible to give Welmu 63% (I realize that he was practicing very hard lately), but BabyKnight had a fantastic run during the first season. I would give him about 50% chances easily.

yeah I was wondering that too. Why exactly has Ret(I know he is liquid.. ) a higher chance than BK.
As far as I remember BK had recently much better results then Welmu or Ret...?

I wonder when challenger league qualifier will take place. I really hope you let mouz heromarine participate. Theres an age restriction that you have to be 16 and heromarine turns 16 on the 4th of july. Would be really bad to not let him participate because of +- 1-2 weeks

I can only assume that 79% don't realize how good Bunny is and think that group G isn't the group of death because of him, well you're wrong

B: MC has not had any results in hots, Stephano is still great but not as great as he once was, Shuttle? and Slivko has a lot to prove in hots as well.

C: MMA and Mana have performed worse in hots then they did in wol so for me TLO is the lone stand out in that group which is why I find that 55% think it's the group of death, shocking.

Well, I was sort of hoping for an announcement of region-locking in Season 2. Sigh.

In any event, this will be a sick non-regional tournament- I hope WCS will provide regional rebroadcasts so I can watch more of it this time around!

Since the players are tied to the region in which they played in season 1 Blizzard cant region lock it for season 2. We will have to wait for next year to see what happens in that regard.

WCS EU has honestly become the league of Fan Favorites! :D

So hyped for this! If it's anywhere nearly as good as last season it's gonna be bloody amazing!

Oh, right on. Either way, despite my whining about regions, I have felt SO empty without WCS to watch all the time
