MVP -> NaNiwa DongRaegu -> SuperNoVa Genius -> Symbol - because Genius beat him in the past. Squirtle -> Seed - %100 PvP winrate

MVP mentioned that it would be fun to face MarineKing again but I doubt he would pick him, he would definitely prefer a TvT though and Keen TvT can be quite wacky, so I believe he would go with Supernova whose style seems more stable.
DRG would want a Terran but probably not MKP, and its probably hard to really tell how good Byun is atm so Keen is probably his pick.
Would Genius reignite his NaNiwa rivalry? I think so! He's got a point to prove and I think he would prove it here!
Not too sure who Squirtle would pick, but again, probably a Terran. So if Taeja or Ryung goes through tomorrow its gonna be one of them, otherwise I think Violet.

Genius 4-0d nani in NASL sunday showdown afaik. If that speaks for or against him picking Naniwa I don't know, but it speaks against him having a point to prove.

DRG and Keen are teammates, so I wouldn't expect that. Also nowadays I think he's more comfortable against Protoss, and I would guess that he'd pick Naniwa if MVP doesn't.

Every Zerg is more confident in ZvT than ZvP right now, DRG will pick a Terran for sure.

Yes, I wouldn't be surprised if DRG did pick Naniwa since Naniwa's vZ is still suspect. Of course, DRG's vT is strong as well.
MKP and Symbol (and maybe Nestea) will probably be the last 2/3 picks unless MC/Naniwa/Genius does something crazy.
|
Mvp -> Seed or Nestea DRG -> Keen Squirtle -> Naniwa for wacky teamkill games
But I imagine Mvp, DRG and Genius will want vT and Squirtle picking PvP.
Mvp -> Keen DRG -> Byun Genius -> Naniwa Squirtle -> Seed or MKP

GSTL would be a good idea too, if I can figure out how to add it in without cluttering up the calendar too much. Last season that was most people's complaint (that i had too much stuff going on, and they were right)
thanks for the response!

Ohh I see where I messed up. The days are +1 what they should be... doh.. thanks for catching that
Edit: whew, that wasnt too hard, thought I was gonna have to re-do the entire text of the thing, but instead I just switched the days list on top. thx opterown, i owe ya one

My predictions
Group A: MVP viOLet
Group B: Symbol Squirtle
Group C: NaNiwa Genius
Group D: DRG Nestea
DRG, Squirtle, NaNiwa, Symbol to ro4

No Tastosis this week? =(
Artosis just tweeted that he was off to London. I know they are casting that event this weekend but I didn't think they would leave so soon. T_T
