Im curious to see how well MVP can do in this type of Tourney. Given time to prepare (GSL) he is obviously amazing, but idk how well he can do.

He's won an MLG before, but that was when his wrists were not exploding.

Nice write up but it saddens me that there is only one Toss in the top 13. Hopefully one of the hero's of aiur will still win it all.
|
Nice writeup! We shall see if certain players live up to their power rank.
|
Wow. I didn't realize how stacked Anaheim was going to be until skimming through this preview.
Can't wait

Mvp really doesnt care about MLG at all.
I wonder if he already practices for his next GSL title.
Guy is so focused on this single event.

Does anyone here think that TL purposely put Bly rank 40 so that they can have a pun with rank 1 MKP? Trololo
|
I wanna see TSL Symbol win this one, hes been BEASTING it as of late

dont think so, I mean Bly? wtf, before recent Zerg buff he wasnt even in the radar on most tournament.
Until the 3 kill vs Prime he was the least accomplished player of those 40 players, and he most likely still is.

IPL4 deserves some blame for somehow putting together a tournament format where the second place player was actually BETTER than the first place player
Huh? What does this even mean? I'm afraid this went over my head...

mkp, really? and stephano the 6th best in the world?? i dunno about all that
plus like others have mentioned, MMA is doing terrible lately. I thought this was a ranking of who is better right now

Sase should definitely be higher! I agree with whoever made that write up
Other than that, nice write up guys, I'm excited :D

his wrists has been bad for a long time. and he won MLG Anaheim with ease and got top 4 coming from the open bracket at providence. Not to forget he won Blizzcon and WCG (MKP was also apart of) all of which are weekend tournaments.

I have no idea whats going to happen but goddamn I will never get sick of that picture
|
Was the Power Rank written before the player registers were shown? I hear people say Losira and MMA will miss out, which is a travesty.

Well, Squirtle had a better run, but aLive was the best player at the tournament because he won the tournament. That's the same with all tournaments I feel. aLive beat Squirtle convincingly 5-3 in the finals, so I think the writeup is a bit too harsh on aLive by suggesting the guy he beat in the finals was nevertheless still better than him. Squirtle had a more impressive run, but aLive was #1 at IPL 4. Just my thoughts

Symbol and DRG I can see, however I'm still not sure if LosirA has it in him to place in a top 3 of this MLG, despite 4-killing TSL. Although he played very well, he still shows that he can fall to great players like Polt (Yes, he beat Polt, but that was more to Polt not just lifting his command centers and losing 3 orbitals to ~30 lings).
My personal prediction for Top 3 is Symbol, DRG, and MC.
I want for Top 3: Symbol, DRG, MMA ^_^

Still it says something that MVP chooses to send Dream over its other players, including Genius, sC, and Finale. Maybe it says something about the team's confidence in the player in particular or the hope that he can repeat his foreigner tournament performance.
