Wow.. These kid zergs should only be allowed to play in the sandbox, not the MSL.

The thing is, Great and Hydra were allowed to mix up things this much because they were the finalists of last season. Talk about kid zergs, but that group actually contains seeds 4,9,11 and 12, not that unfair if you look at it that way.

Actually that is a really unfair seed. The seed average should be around 16.5 if evenly distributed (1,32,16,17 would be ideal). That group average is 9, which is way higher than it should be.

Sure, I'm not saying its not a well above average group, but people are complaining as if it was seeds 1,2,3 and say, 7 (according to popularity). All these three star players performed sub-par last season, now they are paying the price. Hydra and great just did what bettered their chances the most, you cant blame them for not setting the stages up for the fan favourites (its not even their fans they are letting down :-p).

It's impossible to have the top 8 seeds together in the first place, so that is basically the worst possible seeding. Only way it could be worse is one of the top 8 + 9,10,11.

why would MBC reward hydra for stuffing up their tournament brackets. its like if a toddler breaks your iphone, giving him a chocolate. he'll just break your new one when u get it replaced on insurance, then your premiums go up and you're wasting heaps of money on iphones

Group of MEGA DEATH!!!!

Well, the whole thing has a bright side. At least two excellent players will advance and not scrubs who managed to pull off some lucky upsets.

Hydra is pretty stupid though, Light is going to stomp him in the opening match and I don't think Hydra will get out of his own group after that.
Fly Jaedong, fly!

Wtf is with this garbage, JD Flash and Bisu in the same group? I want them to play in BO5 stages not in group!

Sigh.. I guess there's no doubt about group of death this time.

Stork couldn't be moved as he was a top 8 seed.

Hydra should have used one of his chances to move Light out of his group. Silly to waste it on switching Bisu and Sea in the same group. Chobo.

Hahaha its funny... cause it's true. :D

God I don't know who to root for in that group, but I want JD and Flash to go for Golden Badge, so good luck to them! Really tobad though, I love Sea, and I'd like to see Bisu in the later stages as well >_<
