Lol Ryung with the pity votes for having to get sacrificed to Zest.

Yeah he made his group like 9 times harder and you love it.


haha no, I love it because Zest simply did what he wanted and didn't play the Im a nice guy card. And tbh TY shouldn't worry much about Rogue, after all Rogue fears him

I think we've all seen enough GSLs to know that everything these guys say about "fearing player X" during the group selections is a pile of crap.


I don't think so this time, all the "fears" I heard made sense...

Wasn't SpeeD MVP last time? I see a pattern here ^^
Furthermore, I consider that some kind of Code A must be reestablished.

Pretty sure Classic has been underrated by fans in every tournament he has won. I wouldn't want a multi-champion in my group either.

he looked like a B teamer in his SSL group


But then you look at his point totals in LOTV and it's far from ridiculous. He qualified for both leagues in both seasons and is still in the competition in both leagues this season. Is this pure luck?

Group A: TaeJa, Zest
Group B: Dark, sOs
Group C: Maru, Dear
Group D: TY, Rogue

Honestly the TaeJa switch doesn't seem that great. Odds are he won't play TaeJa in the group stage at all. Maybe he should have tinkered with Group B to make sure he gets an easier Ro8 opponent instead

yes, classic is a mediocre player and always was.
Until he has 100% winrate in all matchups he will always be an average player.

They're talking about when they're gonna play Overwatch.

Zest and herO are friends, so it "guarantees" they won't have to face each other in elimination at least

If TaejA can find a good Protoss practice partner, I really think this choice can backfire.

There's no practice partner good enough for this to backfire on Zest. Maybe on herO.

More important to try get out of your RO16 group first imo. This way he'll get to play vs Taeja/Ryung over herO/Rogue if he falls to losers match.

He could easily lose to Rogue or herO, far less likely the Terrans.

There's a good chance Zest advances in first now. But everyone in Group B is on a similar level to herO and Rogue. So aiming for the top is harder now.

Oh yeah btw Cure wanted a good group so he could go home and practice for tomorrow in a good mindset. How'd that work out for him?
