Groups F and G are the ones I'm looking forward to most. For the foreigners - Naniwa has a decent chance of making it out (depending on the matches), same for Violet, ThorZaiN... well, that will be crazy hard, unless he goes to hyper-spoon mode.

Yes because he did not pick who he thought was the easiests to advance from since MVP took line.....
Thorzains group looks very doable for him. He will probably lose vs Squirtle, but Keen and Gumiho aren't that great in TvT while Tzain is quite good at it.
Then again, Keen and Gumiho are two of the most inconsistend platers left in the gsl O.o

Sarcasm i hope xD
Nice groups all of them really accept the last one, which really doesn't look very strong and entertaining. I hope the top 2 from each go through which will make a great round of 16 line up and more importantly a fun live group drawings.

Why should Squirtle care about GOMtv's marketing, if he thinks Thorzain would be the easiest opponent then he can pick him if he wants to. It's about winning.

All groups except one has all three races in them, so I think they will all be tough.
