That is not something used on esports anymore. And even back then on SPL progamers were looking at the public face reactions to get intel LOL.

Boy was i stupid to have delayed the watching of this group's final matches on this saturday morning - ruined my weekend start for sure. What a bad idea was it to place two legends in the same group so early just for the sake of placing them and having them wiped out, even if Bisu ''was not supposed'' to loose to Barracks of all people.

That is not true. Bisu has always been 60% vs Hero last year and this year. It just doesn't manifest in a Bo3. And probably in a tournament setting where Zerg tend to have the upper hand against Protoss with their early shenanigans. Like we saw in the last game it was one misclick or something that let the zerglings slip in that totally changed the fate of the game.

In the RO16 placement -
Barracks picked JyJ for group B.
JyJ picked Bisu
Then Soulkey used his champions privilege to move Jaedong out of his group, and let Sea decide who.
Sea swapped Jaedong with JyJ - that's how Jaedong and Bisu were both placed into Group B

Bisu and Jaedong are well past their prime. I think it's perfectly reasonable to have them both in the same group.
If they were so good, then at least one of them would have made it out, but they did not.
Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

The "good" players are the ones who are seeded from last year's top 4, and they are guaranteed to be in different groups.
