herO and TY must be happy. And the race distribution of the groups is exceptionally good.

Predictions:

Group A: ByuN Rogue
Group B: TY herO
Group C: Solar Stats
Group D: Patience Classic

Rip Neeb? He won't conquer BuyN, but definitely has an upper hand against Zest. It all comes down to match against Rogue which well..Wouldn't bet my own money on him, but maybe yours.

Time to belieeeveeee

I believr Neeb have a decent chance against Zest and Rogue. Nerchio has it suuuuuuper hard and Mlord is dead
i would define my style between a mix of ByuN, Maru and MKP

I like how the foreigners don't have real names. Alex, Artur and whatever Mlord's name is, you dont have those pleb names

The inferior foreign names would break the formatting.

Neeb looked really bad against viOlet and Scarlett during the qualifiers. Like the worse he's looked all year (though it might be because he was tilted after the first few mistakes). I don't like his chances against Rogue at all. And I don't think Nerchio is too dissatisfied with his group--there's no zergs and it isn't much worse than average imo.

Group A: Byun for sure and then a toss up between Rogue and Neeb. Unless Zest has regained his form, I would not favour him versus Byun or Rogue, and his PvP has been lacking.
Group B: herO and TY. TY and herO are some of the better Korean players currently, and I don't think Pet will be that much of a challenge. TRUE might make it in, but he's been dropping maps left and right to foreigners, so I don't think he's up to the level of either of the two.
Group C: Solar and either Stats or Trap. I'm not sure about either Stats or Trap's form currently, but the winner of SSL is definitely the favourite here. I'm sorry for MarineLord, but I don't think he'll be able to pull off a Nation Wars upset.
Group D: This one could be a bit of a toss up. Patience has been performing well, and Maru has not been performing well (especially versus Protoss), but I'm not sure how Classic stacks up against Patience or Maru. Here is where Nerchio can either prove himself or be completely destroyed. What better way for him to prove who is better than versus Maru and Korean Protoss?

I think that there will likely be no foreigners in the ro8, but I could see Nerchio and Neeb potentially making it through.

EDIT: You know, if Maru, Zest, Rogue, and Neeb were in the same group, I would give a decent chance for Neeb to get out.

I think the Koreans hold a pretty strong advantage with their preparation resources alone even though the foreigners are very talented and can easily take games off the Koreans.

this actually isn't that bad a draw for the foreigners, and all the groups look genuinely interesting

What I think is an advantage for the foreigners is that two of them are facing opponents that are either beatable (like Patience) or who are currently in a bit of a slump (like Zest and Maru). That being said, getting Byun in the same group is a pretty bad draw for Neeb.

My condolences MarineLord.

Group D is going to be insane. Pretty big blizzcon implications for Classic and Patience.
