Was hoping Losira'd have an easier bracket, poor guy
I'm still going to predict he wins it. Unlikely, so very very unlikely, but that's my prediction and I'm sticking to it.
Pretty sick lineup, still very excited about it.

Except for MKP on 1st round, his side of bracket is realativey easy isn't?

DRG/Parting, MC/TheStC, viOLet and NaNiwa isn't what I would call easy. Probably the hardest bracket to predict in my opinion.

Predicting that no foreigner will win against a korean since the brackets made sure of that. Also predicting HuK to be the only North American to take a series in a non-foreigner mirror matchup. A severely jetlagged DRG to win it all and then sweep the GSL title.

The only people on his side of the bracket are Naniwa and Violet. Naniwa can be taken down easy; ZvZ is Violet's worst matchup.

Poor Axslav can't catch a break ... Leaves EG. Joins Reign. Makes it into the winter arena. Reign Dies. Has to face his playhem rival VIOLET in the first round. T.T
All EG and FXO players in upper half. All Startale and Dignitas players in lower half. Booo

Whether it's commentating or doing a show like this, his way of describing things seems to be at a grade seven level. I have a hard time listening when he describes every push in a game or player's skill he either says "big", "extremely big". "really big" or "great" or "really great" or "really good". I know this may come off as a really stupid post, but it really drives me insane. I'm okay with commentators with lisps, as that is an extremely difficult obstacle to overcome, but there's nothing stopping an adult who makes their living from talking to use a bit stronger of a vocabulary.
Is this sort of feedback better kept to myself? If not, what medium should I use to voice my criticism? JP does that for fun and to avoid looking too disconnected from the actual audience of esports which is very young. He has a degree in communication arts and could work as a fine journalist in any area, so poor vocabulary is hardly a problem of his.

Eh, you are reading it wrong. All of them are on mkp's side of the bracket. Unless you only count up to the quarter finals for some weird reason.

Imagine how good Nestea would be considered in ZvT if he didn't have to face MMA or MVP. I know a lot of people criticize him, but considering the fact that he still does better than most zergs against those players then that's something to be impressed by.

I'm only counting up to Round 4. He'll only have to worry about MC/TheStC/DRG/Parting/Ganzi at Round 5, and by then four of those five will be in the Losers Bracket.

Yea it's kind of like how people used to give DRG shit for his ZvP even though he was still beating most top protoss players. Only now does it seem people get that he's arguably the best in the matchup atm.
Guess he just has to keep killing those Terrans :/

But historically Mvp destroyed Nestea most of the time. Only like in Blizzcon did Nestea catch up.

Well then I'm factually wrong. Whatever.

That really counts as a rivalry? So one sided.
