I'd really like to hear what would be your ideal groups.

It isn't really the groups I have a big problem with as much as it is the system. You have 8 code S players and only 6 spots moving up. I feel any fair system should make it possible for all 8 to stay.

Personally I think it's nice to have a minimum level of player turnover also if they truly are good players that should be in code S even though they went down in up and downs they still get a code A seed, it's not like they cease to exist.

Evidence: IMMvp, good player gets demoted - makes it to code A finals

Man Sage has 2 PvPs to play. Up and down groups so stacked, i can't imagine losing either one of puzzle/sage, or worst both

Holy shit Group C, easily the hardest up/down group ever so far
Also this really looks to be arranged in such a way to guarantee some more protoss and less terran, I'm skeptical of this randomness gomTV <.< (unless they do a legit draw, in which case I feel stupid)

Group A - Tuesday October 18th
MVP(P)Genius
SlayerS(P)Puzzle
oGs(Z)Zenio
FXO(T)GuMiho
NsHS(P)Sage

Group B - Wednesday October 19th
MVP(T)Keen
(P)FXOz
(P)HongUnPrime.WE
TSL(P)JYP
SlayerS(Z)YuGiOh

Group C - Thursday October 20th
MVP(T)Noblesse
SlayerS(T)Taeja
oGs(T)TOP
MVP(T)sC
FXO(Z)Lucky

Really tough picks, these groups all are so closely skilled that any of them could take #1/#2 on any day from each other.

Looks like we will have 6 P in code S at maximum, but I think only 2 will make it out of up/down.

If we wont see any P go up to code S then in the next patch we will see huge P buff :>

Crossing my fingers for only a single terran to advance from Group C and no others.

my ideal groups would be no groups. just have it all play all, get two sets of casters and cast two games from each round of matches. you end up showing the same amount of games and it's fairer on everyone.

Wouldn't be surprised, honestly. >_>

In which case HuK is the only representative of his race in Code S, against the very best in the world. No pressure, Chris.

Hmm, kinda wish things were spread out more evenly, but I guess this means that there's a higher chance of non T making it to code S. Still seems like there will be around 18 or 19 next season though.

Isn't sC still in the hospital? Doubt hes had time to practice/prepare. Guess sC is gonna be Code A again :[...

My guesses are...

A: Puzzle, Genius
B: Oz, Keen (It'll come down to Keen vs JYP, and JYP's PvT is bad T_T)
C: TOP, TaeJa

.... but anything could happen

Up/Downs are so competitive now and hard to call.
