You can hate him all you want, but calling it bad sportsmanship or against the spirit of the game aren't really appropriate to the situation.

Why is that not cool? SOMEONES going to have to go into an uncomfortable group. You act like jaedong and flash have some holy aura that someone makes them special when being placed in groups? W. T. F.

You expect bisu to weigh every possibility of fairness to every player before deciding whats best for himself? THE GROUP SELECTION IS DESIGNED TO GIVE ADVANTAGE TO THE PREVIOUS SEASONS WINNER. Bisu took that advantage of that as he should.

Sure it would be awesome to have jaedong and flash both still in it but in every starleague a great player goes out early. Get over it.


Do you ever debate calmly? Every post I've seen from you is always lots of caps and yelling and calling people stupid


@Avid

THE BEST SEED POSSIBLE? LMAO. He didn't even make it out of the round of 32. The champion picked a group he couldnt get out of! What does that tell you about the caliber of players that make it starleagues. EVERY player in a starleague is a fantastic player and capable of beating any other player if the game goes their way.

Or did you forget that Bisu didnt even advance?

Kinda makes your point look pretty silly doesn't it.


Clearly he didn't think he would lose, and everyone was very surprised.

Also anyone making the arguement that Flash didn't want a group of death is retarded... in the OSL he specifically stated he would have picked Jaedong next if Bisu picked him for Group A, creating one of the most intense group of deaths ever... way more death-y than MSL's Group F.

Fact is that great players will overcome adversity when they are faced with it anyway. Two people in Group F didn't overcome their adversities. Excuses are just that... excuses. That applies to all players... Bisu, Flash, Jaedong, Forgg... anyone!

That's perfect because I didn't.

People arguing that Jaedong shouldve beaten Hwasin or Flash are missing the point. Which is Jaedong and Flash shouldn't of been in the same group in the first place, since they are ranked #2 and #4 respectively.

It just shows that the system is flawed. If you look at any major spoerting event in the world, tennis, world cup, champions league, they all have seeding systems to prevent this from happening.

jaedong and flash would not have been #2 and #4 based on previous finishes in the MSL, they were out in the ro16 and ro32 respectively, so it definitely could have happened

Am I the only one who likes this system? It rewards the winner of the previous season... Doesn't that make sense...?

lol Yeah, the MSL has a system where people with seeds get to decide groups. And no one cares, and people actually enjoy the system for a while.

And then, Jaedong gets knocked out of the MSL Ro32. Jaedong-fans go nuts, the system shouldn't exist, Flash and Jaedong should be in the same group, Bisu is the devil, wahhh wahh wahhh.

Starleagues often get groups of Death. Groups of death result in good players getting knocked out early. It happens. People need to deal with it.

you are missing the point of the MSL selection ceremony.

MSL cares about the results in their previous tournament much much more than kespa ranking.

they ensure that the top 8 finishers from last season will NOT be in the same group.
