Holy crap I'm excited. http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens2/news/235 wow, seems like GOMTV is really getting their act together - after the VERY short opening day of GSL 1 with ceremonies lasting approximately double the time of all of the matches they start of with basicly 50% of the very top cool (best zerg), inca/genius (two best protoss), maka/boxer (among the best terran) - don't get confused though, this rain is not ITR, just a presumbaly cannon-fodder zerg for nexgenius who really shouldn't lose a PvZ unless it's cool or check | ||

Of course they can still randomize the placing of the players into the matchups and the position of the matches in the bracket, so it isn't bad rigging at all. obviously the brackets are not random lol - would be stupid anyways, could end up in something like idra vs cool in ro32.....what good would that do I think the ppl have done an awsome job, really only exception being inca and nexgenius on the same side in bracket B - this is just stupid; but that aside, nearly none of the favourites playing against each other before ro16 if I'm not mistaken | ||

EDIT: maka vs wind could be ro32, then again wind wasn't "that" amazing in gsl 1....then again it's hard to shine as zerg when you get compared with cool.... | ||

What are you trying to do there? Times like these are times I feel stupid for having lurked as long as I did. Had I joined sooner at least I would have had the report button... | ||

Heh, did not even realise it was a RickRoll if you clicked directly, i always use the option to open in new tab. Anyways, I would assume GOM did some kind of seeding here and not left it totally up to chance, avoiding things like R64 Fruitdealer vs HopeTorture. But if they did do some kind of random drawing I would soooo want to watch it live (or VOD for that matter), I love to watch things like soccer world cup drawings. The suspence and reactions to the draw is so fun to watch. | ||

Of course they can still randomize the placing of the players into the matchups and the position of the matches in the bracket, so it isn't bad rigging at all. I am guessing the PvP is because of other constraints such as not having the past Ro4 or the big SC1 names facing off in Ro 64 (and if at all possible not until Ro16 or Ro8). Hopefully everyone brushed up on their vT and we get good race balance in the Ro32. | ||
