Quite the bold prediction...though I would love to see Naniwa advance :D. That's the awesome thing about this WCS Finals, everyone is so awesome that you can't really ever count anyone out.

[Edit] Also, Aligulac also favoring naniwa making it out, interesting.

Love the group header - Naniwat, haha.

Even if it wasn't intentional it's still funny. Probably an apt depiction of Naniwa's reaction during the group draw.

People said the same about Maru.. so dont underestimate inno's oponnents.

The difference is that Maru struck first. The only game I can remember of Taeja vs Inno in PL had him struggling as Inno just marched up bio-tank into the vicinity of his natural choke. Taeja seems like the type of person who plays methodically aggressive, but doesn't press hard in either his defense or his attacks. He might have changed over the last few months, but I still have doubts...

You'll be praised as a hero or laughed at as a clown.
Personally I loved it (:

No one loves Group B i see

As for the results i do believe Taeja is going to beat Innovation, but Innovation might still be just to mechanicaly skilled to get that second spot above the 2 protoss players.

The prediction is quite bold. It is not like Innovation's TvP is bad. I can see Taeja winning (even tho it would be an upset for me), but no way he loses to Naniwa or Dolan. And Naniwa beating Dolan is even more unlikely.

The group will go as follows

Innovation
Duckdeok
Taeja
Naniwa.

Innovation losing to Taeja and Duckdeok. I didn't know Zealously was a crazy person.

o.O @ this prediction. I'd love to see all the annoying Kespa-baiters get smashed again, but honestly RoBogus should destroy the protoss players easily, and probably beat Taeja (though Taeja could just as easily win) and advance in 1st.

ofc Group B is coming last. Fionn has to be pouring his heart and soul into the Polt section, now that he looks like a real contender for this tournament xD

I love the fact that you added Aligulac in the prediction part! I would like to see this become the norm.

I don't see the point as long as so many players are not correctly rated.

Man just because innovation lost to parting doesn't mean his tvp is suddenly bad. He's still probably one of the best TvP players around. If Naniwa's matches against Polt are any indication, i doubt he will win. On another note: GO KESPA!!
