33% chance. Otherwise they meet in the semis

What? Is it random draw?
Where is that written?


Group winners can't be in the same QF match. Draw is done with group winners first pulled then second place drawn to fit in. 1/2 chance to determine side of bracket maru is on. 3 slots left for Serral which is 2/3 chance of being on opposite side. Multiply and we get 1/3

Be that as it may, when I take a gander at the playoff section on Liquipedia or the Blizzcon site, I can't tell how they will be seeded in the playoffs. Does anyone know whether Maru and Serral will be

they will make the bracket after group stage completes, the only rule is that a first place player can't play another first place and same for second place players

Isn’t it 2/3 chances that Maru and Serral are on opposite side actually?

Like (1/2*2/3)*2 + 2(1/2*1/3) =1

Like:
1/2 shot Maru side A 2/3 Serral side B
1/2 shot Maru side B 2/3 Serral side A
1/2 shot Maru side A 1/3 Serral side A
1/2 shot Maru side B 1/3 Serral side B

Isn't it sort of strange that "Mexican pro gamer, among the best in the world in his game, with a well-known love of Koreans" describes two different people?
