When in good form all three are championship contenders. Gumiho is not to be underrated either given how much he upset last year. In group D only sOs and Stats are potential champions imo. People are overrating the group because it's all toss | ||

Classic is very good, and Dear is decent. I can't really speak for Gumiho. herO is in quite good form recently, Stats is in decent form, and sOs is always a threat. Stats is about equal with Classic, sOs and herO are better than Dear and Gumiho, and Trap is worse though perhaps in better form than Maru. | ||

People are overrating the group because it's all toss that`s not overrating that`s respecting the names all this toss have more titles and strong tournament runs than all other squads in the groups. plus dear doesn`t look like a reigning crown player anymore despite his decent results at the start of the season, gumiho is too unpredictable and maru is actually in bad form right now he tossed up the tongues because his performance at the Katowice quali but even with that at the end he failed it and proceeding struggles in his GSL group. only Classic looks like a devastation machine right now but it still didn`t stop him to conceding first place in the group to Stats | ||

Dear isn't far behind either. Both of them are looking better than Stats or herO (those two may have better results over the past year but haven't done anything on the new patch). Maru is also in very good form against Z and P right now. In the IEM qualifiers he looked like a top 2 terran. The only contender for the trophy in group D is sOs. | ||

I know you dislike herO but he's looking excellent on the new patch as well. | ||

I will take PvP over TvT, ZvZ every second of every day and at least half the time over ZvT. TvT cyclone wars are way less interesting than all of the ludicrous and hilarious ways that PvP devolves. I'd be rather shocked if in total there were more than 5 games from that group that make it to the 12 min mark (and I have to hedge that bet only so high because Classic and Stats together have had some pretty big macro games). | ||

I don't think I'd split hairs either way haha. Still. For sure, herO seems to have PvT on lockdown better than anyone else. Wish he and Zest were swapped lol. | ||
