He's pretty underrated, despite getting decent scalps/results for a while now. Unfortunately i guess TLO was too good for their second series. Jim out in straight sets

My Predictions:

Group A

Serral > XiGua
ForGG > TLO
TLO > XiGua
ForGG > Serral
Serral > TLO

Group B

Snute > MacSed
ShoWTimE > PiG
PiG > MacSed
Snute > ShoWTimE
ShoWTimE > PiG

Group C

Polt > FireCake
MaNa < Hydra
MaNa > FireCake
Polt > Hydra
Hydra > MaNa

Group D

Welmu > Bunny
Kane > Has
Bunny > Has
Welmu > Kane
Bunny > Kane

I think B is a pretty good group for PiG. Certainly capable of beating everyone there, even snute in zvz.
I'd also give Mana an outside chance in group C

My Predictions:

Group A

Serral > XiGua
ForGG > TLO
TLO > XiGua
ForGG > Serral
Serral > XiGua

Group B

Snute > MacSed
PiG > ShoWTimE
MacSed > ShoWTimE
PiG > Snute
Snute > MacSed

Group C

Polt > FireCake
MaNa > Hydra
Hydra > FireCake
Polt > MaNa
MaNa > Hydra

Group D

Bunny > Welmu
Has > Kane
Kane > Welmu
Bunny > Has
Kane > Has

Group A is undisputable really, but the rest can be a bit up in the air.

ForGG + Serral

I think ForGG dominates his group. 4-0 and I think Serral has shown some pretty epic play-style, decisively beating Suppy 2-0 in the Ro32.

Snute + PiG

Hometown hero definitely has a chance of making it out of this group. While Showtime did play well against iAonsu, I don't think iAonsu is as good as either Snute or PiG, so the Protoss might struggle a little with PvZ here. Snute will probably come out of his group 1st, he handely destroyed both Uthermal and Xigua in hte ro32. Tough group definitely, probably the closet out of all the groups...but I think the Zergs have it.

MaNa + Polt

MaNA has been playing superbly, He went out of his group 4-0 beating both viOlet and Bunny. I will not be surprised if he dominates this group either. Hydra hasn't impressed me lately, he had a pretty easy qualifer run and didn't think he played that well in his group Ro32, Polt also struggled in his qualifer matches, taking a while to actually qualify, but he went though his Ro32 group fairly well, dropping 2 maps to Jim and Kelzahur, however I think he shouldn't have a problem against Firecake and Hydra, but will lose to MaNa.

Bunny + Welmu

This I think is probably the hardest group to call, not necessarily a group of Death but certainly scary. Both Kane and Welmu went out of their groups 2-0, Welmu not losing a map in the process, Kane did lose 2 games to to TarGa and Happy repesectively, both players i do not think are on hte same level as either Welmu or Bunny, but his qualifying games was at the fall of Polt, so he does have that going for him. Bunny has not had a lot of practice against Zerg lately, only having to face viOlet in the Ro32 whom he dispatched quite easily, he has however had a lot of practice against Protoss. Taking out both ShowTime and Lilbow in the European Qualifers, he did however lose to MaNa 2-0 in the Ro32. I think however, European dominance is gonna show out over the NA audacity and Welmu and Bunny will easy go on to the Ro8

ForGG & XiGua - Clearly ForGG will dominate this group however i think XiGua will surprise a few and get out of the group

Snute & PiG - as much as i love protoss i cant go past Snute and obviously with PiG being the only aussie left i hope he kicks some but and comes out the group in first

MaNa & Hydra - I love the way MaNa played in the ro32 and feel he can replicate his form and move out of this group. The other person to get out i feel will be hydra i feel he will be just good enough to escape the wrath of Polt and move on

Welmu & Has - Is it possible 2 protoss get in to the ro8 from this group of course it is Welmu is playing really well and Kane is supposedly not going to have alot of practice before the games Has is more of a hopefully gets out im hoping he does but if its not him it will be Bunny
