I really hope HuK pulls out something incredible and advances, but it's going to be tough-- he hasn't fared too well against either Violet or Revival.

Some other info that you guys might not have realized besides the liquid team kill is that.
1. Xigua was the player to eliminate hero in s1 of 2014.
2. Group F is a replica of Group B of S1 2014 except with the replacement of MaSa for Seed.
3.This is the 3rd time that HuK will meet Revival in WCS NA 2014 and he has a good record vs viOLet.
4.Jaedong always has 2 koreans + 1 taiwan/chinese player.
5.This is the 3rd time that NesTea and Alicia will meet in WCS NA 2014
GLHF :D!!!

WCS AM with mostly Koreans on round of 32 and probably almost no foreigner on round of 16. That's just not right.

It doesn't even make sense why Blizzard actually named WCS AM, or WCS EU. What's the point of the name if there's not some kind of region lock. Just name them all WCS and get this over with.

WCS AM: where 1/4 of the participating players are actually Americans.

they need to play better during their Challenger then?

WCS NA doesnt necessarily mean only NA players, it jsut means its a tournament that takes place in NA

like French OPen doesnt mean french players only

there will be atleast 1 foreigner in top 16

probably will be top 8 all Korean YET again though kekeke?....

Starting to feel like tournament organisers intentionally pit Liquid players against eachother like at first it just happened then it kept happening and now they just do it intentionally.

Ouch Jaedong gettin matched up potentially vs his worst match up (ZvP) twice and we've seen his results the last three or four times vs Taeja (it's been a one sided slaughter usually) so I'd imagine if he faces Polt (another amazing terran) with this upcoming patch to buff Terran he'll prob lose there too. I can only hope I am wrong though because if he makes it out of his group I will scream for joy instead of feeling like I got punched in the gut watching him get rolled again.
