Group A: 8896 Group B: 8389 Group C: 8426 Group D: 10056 I guess group of death is more about which group is likely to be the biggest bloodbath. I agree here as well, sure Maru is the favorite to advance, but the other players are all very close in skill and all of them have taken series from Maru in the past. | ||

To me, the overall favorite is Maru -- I think he's the only one in the tournament that is probably favored head to head against literally anyone else. His worst match-up, TvP is still one that he's absurdly strong in (arguably favored against any protoss) and there aren't that many protoss to really challenge him there. | ||

Eh... per Aligulac (as of 02/04) Group D – Maru (3354), Reynor (3193), Clem (3099), Zoun (2739), Scarlett (2657) Group B – Serral (3325), Dark (3191), ShoWTimE (3021), TIME (2743), SpeCial (2613) Average Elo of 3008 and 2978, respectively. Group C – Zest (3116), HeRoMaRinE (2963), Trap (2880), Bunny (2868), Lambo (2798) Group A – Rogue (3131), Cure (3043), Solar (3030), Dream (2732), Neeb (2665) Average Elo of 2925 and 2920, respectively. Not sure what 'copium' is, but I think it's fair to say that while Group D is definitely the hardest, Group B is closer to being as hard as Group D than Groups C and A are to being as hard as Group B. Depends on what you mean by competitive though, I guess... | ||

Depends on what you mean by competitive though, I guess... Aligulac is shit. It predicted that MaxPax was favored over PartinG 5 months ago when I was playing with it, and when PartinG was a Ro4 GSL player and MaxPax wasn't as good as he is now. You should go by the points that were created to qualify people for this event. The ratings in your own post discredit Aligulac as far as I'm concerned without going after any individual players when it's not their fault. Suffice to say, it systematically overrates Europeans relative to Koreans. | ||
