Maru/Scarlett would be my favourite duo to get out of the group too! I wouldn't under-estimate aLive, I think he'd stomp MMA in his current form.
But I'm off creep... and so I slow down, what are hellions doing here? I don't belong here...

LosirA's still active.

Anyway, looking at that list, it is amazing how many players have fallen out of the scene.

Someone should put Scarlet in a Kerrigan costume already.

I figured out the EG Curse. It was set in motion by Voodoo Shamans working for Millenium. Whenever EG aquires a player, Voodoo energies start slowly draining skill from the EG guy into an Millenium newcomer. Think about it!

Group A has Nestea.
Group B has Taeja, Polt, MC, Maru, San.
Group C has Kangho, TLO.
Group D has Byun, Genius and Zenio.

I'm impressed with Maru, but...it was more Rain choking than Maru playing exceptionally brilliant. He played extremely well, no doubt, but he doesn't strike me as unquestionably dominating, like MVP, Nestea, DRG, MMA, Life did at their respective heights, or Innovation did more recently.

Gogo Scarlett !

I agree with those predictions. Maru is the favorite, aLive is the underdog and MMA/Scarlett is 40/40.

Would be happy as long as Maru makes it out. Scarlett in second place would be pretty cool too.

Most people here are seriously underestimating MMA. He has won 66% of his games in HotS, and he has won 77% of his games against Zerg; and he's only lost four best of 3s/5s. One of those losses was to Ret, two were to Hyun, and the most recent loss was to life by a score of 2-3. It's not like he is losing to bad players. He just isn't as dominant as he was a year or two ago, but everyone is making it sound like he is absolute trash now.

Is it just me or does:

I've always thought MMA was a bit of an ass. I just hope that Maru gets eliminated though, cheesing three times in a semifinal is just not fun to watch. So Scarlett and aLive gogogogo plz :D

Prediction: The People's Liberation Army Air Force will drop paratroopers into Cologne on top of Gamescom and deliver Jim to compete.

It happens often between two closely matched opponents. Like the last couple of times Parting and Life have been placed in the same group in GSL. Life would convincingly win the first series, but Parting would win the 2nd series in the end.

I'm pretty sure Maru and MMA will advance.
If you don't like it, you can quit.
