ByuN and herO are the clear–I daresay overwhelming–favorites to advance. I'd put herO 2-1 over ByuN in the winner's match, but it could go either way. Regardless, both of them have to be feeling pretty damn confident about their chances.
With the unfortunate demise of Scarlett a few days ago, the hopes of all foreigners now fall upon Major's shoulders. Can the intrepid Mexican overcome the Korean titans and advance? Realistically, no, but I suppose hope springs eternal.
And last but not–well kinda actually–least, Armani. Poor guy is overshadowed by all three of his competitors, but that's what everyone said about KeeN (including Artosis) and look at where he ended up. Well, he failed to advance so not the best inspiration. But he made it to the top of Reddit with a sick nuke, so consolation prize?
I wonder if Juan catches a lot of Pokemon in Seoul. Time to start reaping the rewards of all that practice in the BTTV house! Best of luck to Special! Defend those pylon rushes like a champ plz!
I was pretty confident in Scarlett making it out of her group and that didn't happen, but I'm even more confident in Major at least getting 3rd. Coming out of the group would be a huge upset though

Why tho?
Because most people thought KeeN was bad so most people thought she "only" had to beat Classic, which is on paper feasible. Since she took a game off of Stats it's not that far fetched, unfortunately for her KeeN proved to be a good terran, albeit mediocre compared to the big ones... but KR still has depth.
This is indeed the most probable outcome in which MajOr qualifies! I dunno if I don't sleep, don't watch, or sleep super late. Why are the 6am groups always the most interesting ones for me?
Just FYI about their histories, MajOr has played herO four times and ByuN thrice. MajOr vs herO (games): 2-8 MajOr vs herO (series): 0-3 MajOr vs ByuN (games): 1-8 MajOr vs ByuN (series): 0-3
