If Flash and Bisu were unmovable seeds, this would have been avoided. Poor JD, though.

People ignore that he used ZERO of his three moves on his own group..


If you make your group easier - it is kinda lame, but can be taken as smart/tactical move.
When you make someone's group harder for no real reasons - it is just stupid/malicious.
Nobody benefits from this. It is bad for MSL, it is bad for fans, so it is bad for SCBW.
The only ppl who like it - TBLS haters.

If you can't beat them, win by other means. This way Hydra takes our atleast a single person who can be his top competitor, its smart, it may be incredibly annoying and I wholeheartly dislike it but still, can't say he is not smart. That being said Jaedong will have a hard time T_T.

If great and hydra gets eliminated in round RO32 ..

What joy would it bring! I'm not really a flash or sea fan nor a bisu fan, but I'm technically a dong fan but more importantly, I don't give a shit whos playing as long as there are awesome games to be played. With great and hydra making this dick move, there will be less awesome games to be played. And no, this if you say that this is about winning, then they should just face these pillars head on if they are to make another "cool progamer club' because if they don't beat these guys, they will still be living under their shadow.

But I'm not really worried, Flash, JD or Bisu will rip the shit out of this MSL. And to think great and hydra are zergs, Bisu will have a field day with them. Hydra beating JD, to me was just a fluke, that was the time he was in a slump. These guys won't be messed with. And poor Sea, but then again he's pretty capable of dealing with Bisu or JD, not sure about Flash though.

Of the last few exciting BoX's in recent memory, I can't think of any that involved purely intra-TBLS matchups.

(Fantasy/Flash, Light/JD, Snow/JD, Fantasy/Calm*, Light/Effort, Modesty/Kal)
*lol

All the FvJs since NATE were rather meh, JvS was "lolcannons", Bisu v Stork was also rather uneventful. It seems that their games in Proleague are in general much higher quality (key word: Bo1).

With that in mind, I can't see 5 guaranteed Bo1s between S-class players as a bad thing.

I don't know why people are so mad. We are guaranteed games between jaedong/flash/bisu. Usually one or two of them get eliminated before the bo5 round even starts. And when they do meet in BoX's, the result is usually a bunch of BO wins, cheeses, and one-sided crushings. .
