It's not a done deal until MLG posts the bracket. However, the current bracket on Liquipedia is based on the published seeds and the Group Play format posted here. | ||

The same thing struck me when looking at the brackets on Liquipedia...top 2 seeds could end up playing MKP, Leenock, JYP, Heart, theSTC, Thorzain, etc. rather than some of the random American players who are seeded in. Doesn't seem to make much sense to me. edit: no disrespect to the aforementioned American players, but I don't think anyone will argue that they are not at the level of the Code S/A players I mentioned from the open bracket. | ||

Yeah, it seems like a silly way to seed it. MLG considers anyone in the Open Bracket a lower seed, but practically, that's a silly idea. | ||

Once just another Terran amongst a sea of Slayers Terrans, but now it seems like he is one of the last of that breed. Fans are fickle though. Ryung has the skill and personality to become a fan favorite though... | ||
