A, B and C seem to be slightly stronger than the others but I don't see a clear group of death.

Good draws for Millenium by the way.

Yeah groups look pretty well balanced. No massively scary group or anything, but a good representation throughout the entire round.

Because the finals in Krakow are not long after the EU groups and it was easier to get them a EU visa that lasts a couple of weeks.

Neeb previously qualified for Premier as a Terran, was kicked out from the reset at the beginning of the year, and now he's requalified as a Protoss.

Shana previously qualified for Premier as a Protoss, was kicked out from the reset at the beginning of the year, and now he's requalified as a Terran.

Now they're in the same group.

Bold prediction. Jaedong and Violet won't make it out of their groups but Polt/Hydra/ForGG all will. With ForGG coming in 2nd but the other two in first.

you really think marinelord will lose 2 TvT or to a cheesy protoss? It's like the dream group for him, nothing to scary and with his current form...

Zest fanboy.

I can't see an actual GoD tbh. I mean no group has more than two players that we expect to get out over someone else?

Ofcourse Xigua is a good draw, but Violet is just one of these korean pro's who is a level above TLO and Mana is protoss (which is for TLO reason enough to lose), and even good vs.z...

You must be kidding me. Apart from the customary Liquid Team Kill, i will definitely not put Violet above TLO.

If you have been watching WCS this year, Violet has not shown any form at all, losing to foreigners left and right. So unless this season is going to be a breakout performance for Violet, i really fancy TLO's chances in this group.
Hit me up if you need chinese translations. soO fighting !!

good point, and it's right that violet is no top 30 player right now, but nevertheless i think violet is still better than TLO in zvz now (for example the Aligulac stats: Violet-1917 ,TLO-1740. Ofcourse Aligulacstats are not super acurate, but more than 150 points difference means there is atleast a difference at all).
But i hope either i'm wrong, or TLO gets a bit lucky an manages to win the series...

btw:
I know it's the anonymity of the internet, but why do you have to react to a normal post of a stranger with "you must be kidding me."? Would you ever talk like this to a stranger in real?!?

TLO's and violet's ZvZs are even since january - both ~61% winrate. TLO had more success in important matches so far and especially offline. Also his showing against Losira and True at Asus Rog was quite convinving. So I'd favor TLO over violet but violet is definetely a dangerous player.
Furthermore, I consider that some kind of Code A must be reestablished.

Against what opponents? This is the important factor. Even I have 85% winrate in ZvZ against my platinum friend and I dont even play zerg

You got to be good when it counts and that is a skill too!

That being said, I watched Firecake vs Zanster yesterday and that was for sure interesting. Firecake having won the challenger against Zanster the season before 3-1 and now Zanster 3-0 Firecake. Proper preparation + daily form certainly goes into the equation.

I wonder what the SC2 equivalent of his "resurrection" in Blood Money would be.

Saying gg as he is being beat and then winning the game?
