Wow MD group 1 is gonna be the group of death. I don't even know how it will turn out eventually... Still early days but gonna go with Minions and LiLiu making it to semis. Not sure if EndoWatan have what it takes to beat Minions, LiLiu and Kamson in a span of few days.
Actually the slow hall condition in Guangzhou is advantageous for Endo Watanabe who play defensively, thus the reason they got to the final. of last WTF final. My concern is for Minions and KamSon who play fast offensive style.
