I guess it's just a way to divide up the fourteen EU players that qualified, altho I do think it would just be simple if they randomly split up the EU players among the pots. | ||

Pot 2 : 8 EU Pot 3 : 6 EU + 2 Lat Am, TW or Oceania Pot 4 : 4 CN + the 2 regions not included in Pot 3 Wasn't it the most obvious choice ? | ||

They literally could not have done it better. | ||

They wanted one pot to be like "asia" as in China/Taiwan/Russia/Mana :p and another pot to be like southern hemisphere as in LatAM/Oceania plus surplus from EU and the rest two pots be North America and Europe | ||

That aside, WOW!!!! this is by far the most hype wcs event for me, it is going to be so cool to see players who normally do not play each other facing off. I think happy actually may have a shot at getting out of the group of death, if he can beat serrel in a losers match than taking 1 bo3 off polt or ForGG is possible. iirc he beat forGG in one of those fragbite tourneys awhile back and he has some sick tvt. Also I look forward to my NA boys wrecking those eu scrubs in the first group  Huk also looks to have a fairly easy group, and Kane has a decent shot in the last group as his zvz has always been fairly strong, NA pride must be upheld!! Perhaps not the perfact group for snute, his zvz has always been good, but not spectacular, and both piG and kane could upset him imo. just my initial thoughts | ||

The hardest group overall might be group B. | ||
