Not even remotely true.
We didn't draw any groups vs any specific group.
Losira could have played ANY of the second places.
It was a random draw with two parameters.
1st vs 2nd
One player from A/B/C/D in each half or bracket.

Honestly it's not hard even as a Korean in Korea as long as you just go to all the weekend tournaments. Jaedong didn't do shit in WCS NA last season but EG sent him to everything so he got in based on the sheer number of tournaments he attended. Fantasy is an example of a korean player likely to make it to Blizzcon based almost entirely off weekend tournaments

Read the second parameter. Then explain how Losira could have played vs any 2nd place LOL

Well yea, but its still easier in WCS than in SSL/GSL regardless of SSL/GSL + weekend tournaments being better than just SSL/GSL or WCS

Because at the start of the draw there are no players on the grid. So he COULD have played vs any of the second places, depending on the other 1st place in his side of the grid. Obviously as the draw goes on the chances of playing certain opponents diminishes/increases depending on how it plays out.
