When it comes to PvP I don't think Rain will have any say in the best P contest. At least right now.

Well, I hope TY can show his skills this time.

I can totally understand Rain and PartinG, and even Jim as a Chinese player makes sense. But Heart is an interesting choice.

Also, Snute getting both top 2 Korean PvZ players in his group must be a sign or something.

Yeah, I meant that no-one was willing to pay for their own flights so they invited Heart who doesn't have to pay.
worded it weirdly I guess

Rain is going to win another tournament \o/

I think PartinG takes this - ezpz.

if PartinG gets herO, then things will get bad for PartinG. But with Rain vs herO, Rain has a better shot at besting herO, BUT!!!!!! no promises

Snute your ZvP better be on point!

It's not about Snute's ZvP being on point or not.
Classic and Rain are both untouchable in the vZ matchup.
As if Rain vs Snute in HSC wasn't already one-sided enough, and those were just aggressive timings from Rain, imagine if Rain went Macro, Snute would have no chance

I think if Jim didn't entered semifinals last year, he didn't get the wild card.
I love SC2

I bet this is gonna end in a Top 4 PvP fight for best P in the world

When it comes to PvP I don't think Rain will have any say in the best P contest. At least right now.

Well, I hope TY can show his skills this time.

When it comes to best PvP in the world, none of herO, PartinG, Rain and Classic have a say as the best P, It's always Zest and/or Stats

Poor Snute, this group after Innovation :-(
And as my favorite player $o$ does not participate, I will wish all the best to JD. Although he had to move out of Korea to have a chance to qualify for the better tournaments and does not belong to the top tier player group, he could still surprise. Please, JD, do some miracles! At least win your group!

A and B Groups are insane while C and D groups look lackluster.
I hope I catch this tournament live.

Looks like herO will win his 4th IEM championship going through Protosses again like he did the last few ones. Or his slump will be too big to handle that he loses in his group stage.

That Group B is looking deadly. Feel bad for Snute drawing such a tough group. Going up against recent GSL AND SSL Champs... damn. Hoping for an upset.

Poor Stardust.
WCS is like allowing Premier League football teams in the Korean football league... only, the other way around!

Rain and Classic should thank David Kim for the Swarmhost change, they have a shot now

Yeah, not so long ago at IEM San Jose Snute was a FAVORITE vs any Korean Protoss, but with no swarm host army, going to take a miracle.

Best way to look at it I guess is good practice and nothing to lose.

Looks like Stardust decided to become good again, wining qualifiers left and right.

Woah Chinese visa denied? This is new. Something to do with the MERS situation? But that doesn't make a lot of sense either.

Openbracket only with 4 players each? Usually it was 8 players each the last seasons.

This is underwhelming.

Edit:
Alicia wont make it for the open Bracket thx to China Eastern Airline.
