Am I crazy or is this the best and most stack ro16 ever?


Most certainly top 3, but those three are impossible to distinguish between

What are the other two?


2013 WCS KR Season 1 and 2014 GSL Season 1. This one might have a tiny edge, but I'd be hesitant to call any far above the others. All three share the common trait of 11-13 star players (some of them on insane streaks) with 3-5 outliers that are good, but not considered astonishingly great.

In b4 everything switches to osl format, shine appears, and effort/shine play 500 tiebreakers to eventually just speedling a cocky flash in the finals

I would like to have Ro8 as stacked as possible, rather then having some of the top player getting KO in a group of death.

(Z)soO, (Z)Soulkey, (Z)TRUE.
(P)Rain, (P)Zest, (P)sOs.
(T)Maru, (T)Flash.

This would be my ideal Ro8.
S4 Arrows, never forget. RIP Woongjin Stars.

Substitute DRG for True and Parting for sOs and you have my favorite scenario

Realistically PartinG would want to be in a group with Maru or Zest picking and I'm sure he will BM his way into one of them.

hehe, I never get any of these but what the hell, it's prediction time! (although I did once call that Life/Parting/Flash/Bogus group)

Zest -> TRUE -> Effort -> Flash

soO (he wants PartinG tho :p) -> Cure -> Bogus -> PartinG

Maru -> DRG -> Solar -> sOs

Rain -> Stats -> Reality -> Soulkey (oh shit...)

A: (P)Zest, (Z)TRUE, (Z)EffOrt, (T)Flash

B: (Z)soO, (T)Cure, (T)Bogus, (P)PartinG

C: (T)Maru, (Z)DongRaeGu, (Z)Solar, (P)sOs

D: (P)Rain, (P)Stats, (T)Reality, (Z)Soulkey

Totally falls apart if TRUE is picking instead of Rain >.>

I love predicting these things. It's impossible, but the results are fascinating. Often the players have clear ideas about who is fucking good, and there are some people who just aren't chosen because of teamkills, friendships etc. Anyway, I'm gonna have a swing:

Zest -> Solar, because he likes PvZ and Solar is one of the weaker zergs.
soO -> Reality, because Reality is probably the weakest player in the Ro16 and soO doesn't fuck around.
Maru -> PartinG. He chose him before, he'll get him again, and he loves TvP. PartinG is the new gatekeeper imo.
TRUE -> Stats. He'll want a ZvP and Stats is a decent choice.

Reality -> DRG. Preserves chances of a Reality + Zerg group which would be great for him. DRG's ZvT is less scary than EffOrt's, though still good.
PartinG -> sOs. PvPartinG. Teamkill. Group of death. Only other choice is Flash. PartinG is a crazy mofo.
Stats -> EffOrt. Same logic as Reality's pick. Stats is on a PvZ tear and he has crushed EffOrt every time they have met.
Solar -> Cure. No real choice - everyone else is a nightmare.

Cure -> Soulkey. He won't choose a terran - it's much better to only prepare for two matchups.
EffOrt -> INnoVation. He might choose Flash for the fantasy BW rematch, but otherwise it has to be a terran for EffOrt's best matchup.
sOs -> Rain. sOs doesn't give a fuck. He'll be happy to teamkill SKT and escape the group of death with Maru.
DRG -> Flash. DRG can't catch a fucking break.

For groups of...

Zest/Solar/Cure/Soulkey
soO/Reality/DRG/Flash
Maru/PartinG/sOs/Rain
TRUE/Stats/EffOrt/INnoVation

I hope to god there are no 4Z groups, but am at least glad there won't be a 4SKT or 4JA group.

If I remember right with the Ro16 group selections they actually seeded the top 4 players as groups A D C B so that #1 and #2 wouldn't meet in the Ro8 so assuming on that + snake selection order I am going to guess
+ Show Spoiler +

A: 1. (P)Zest -> 5. (T)Reality -> 12. (T)Cure -> (P)sOs
B: 4. (P)Rain -> 6. (Z)EffOrt -> 11. (Z)DongRaeGu -> (Z)Soulkey
C: 3. (T)Maru -> 7. (P)Stats -> 10. (P)PartinG -> (T)Flash
D: 2. (Z)soO -> 8. (Z)TRUE -> 9. (Z)Solar -> (T)INnoVation

There's no point in predicting these haha. Everyone makes a dumb decision that makes no sense
