It's funny because it's both B4 and RorO's first time in the Ro16, and they're facing each other.

mvp is really good at picking groups and that's part of why he's made it to the finals 6 times, guys like MC just pick the toughest players then get knocked out. happened so many times before.


Mvp's has this weird ability to not only pick a player that is good for him (although he did lose to GumiHo who had picked before), the rest of the group somehow lines up nicely as well.

Against Life? I don't know ... but I'd definitely say that Group D is the hardest. Not by a huge margin since I think the picks evened out the groups quite a bit, but there's Life and Parting, a long-time gamer on the rise in B4, and the the KeSPA sniper in Roro. Should be interesting.

Seems like all three of the protosses managed to get fairly favorable groups, or at least as good as they could hope for at this stage.

Now watch all three of them advance, but then Bomber makes it out of his group and goes on a protoss killing spree...

All that stuff about "honor" and "facing the best" doesn't really matter once you are eliminated because you got overconfident. Picking the right groups is just as much strategy as the games themselves, and the only thing that matters in the end is whether you have the trophy in your hands.


My point is that picking so called weaker player doesn't increase your chance of advancing, sometimes decreases it.

Group A, since the 4players are more of equal skill.
Group D it's pretty much set in stone that Life and Parting will advance ^^
