Woaw, so many on Slayers, yes they're good, but not that good :O, as for MVP I really dont see them performing that well, but heh when you think about it IM never performed well even tho they've got the sickest line up ever, it's like they dont prepare for it or just get stressed out when they're playing for their team instead of for themselves, which I could understand, but when they'll get over it they should destroy everyone but Slayers imo, and I'd still give it to IM after a close match

Feels like everyone is neglecting the fact that Prime, NSH and TSL(ton of players left though) went really far last season. Voted for NSH, jjakji has proven to be really solid. With other players such as Seal, Sage and Tassadar the team seems really good in a teamleague.

The history of the GSTL is all about underdog teams coming out of nowhere and doing well. Korean superstars can't seem to be bothered with taking the GSTL seriously and this allows the more dedicated 'lesser' teams to claim the glory. Nobody could have predicted last season's semifinalists would consist of the depleted TSL, upstart NShoseo and one-trick-pony Prime. MVP and SlayerS both went from chumps to champs in the earlier season of GSTL as well.

All that being said I think MvP is gonna take it all this season. They haven't finished lower than 3rd in any of the last 4 teamleagues they participated in, winning 2 of them. They have the best combination of depth and racial balance of all the teams. If anyone thinks MvP are still just a one man team they need to pay more attention.

IM needs to stop underperforming in the GSTL, their individual stars needs to carry their team at critical moments more often, no excuses for a team of their quality. Any BW team that has two of the top 2 player in the world/rankings are also expected to win team league titles, no different here. NSH ad FXO will do well again I think. MVP can be the favorite if Genius and SC maintain their form along with DRG being the ace. Slayers Zerg and Protoss players need to step up if their team is to do well, but they have the ability to do so especially with MMA being the most reliable Ace/Closer there is.

I think that between IM and SlayerS, it will be very close but with SlayerS edging out in the end. They have been way too consistent and solid all around, not to mention entertaining. Gogo Slayers!

SlayerS? Don't forget EG.

JYP and PuMa played major roles in TSL's run in GSTL. PuMa only played in the first couple matches, but he got a considerable amount of kills...

JYP for zerg sniper, IdrA for terran sniper, PuMa for protoss sniper.

People doubted MVP last time and they did it
People doubted DongRaeGu in blizzard cup (he had less votes than "other") and he BARELY didn't do it
Keen all killed in IPLTL
DongRaeGu wasn't even needed in the play offs last year except for round 1

MVP got this no problem, doubly so if Noblesse decides to be a boss again

I picked MVP, they seem like a great well-rounded team.

Slayers feels too bloated for their own good and the best players of IM seem to be more focused in singles matches.
