ohhhh t.t i wanted to see violet and drg so badly... heard nothing from them for a long time. other than that, i never liked the first group stage of dreamhack, no interesting matches there, clear favorites and noone there to create an upset. :D But still looking forward to the next group stage should be awesome! GOGO dreamhack
Really solid groups. Usually there is a group or two that starts the tourney off with 3 progamers out of 4 and that SUCKS because someone goes home on day 1... but here as far as I could see it's 2 known / progamers and 2 fairly unknown players.
Don't get me wrong.. I am all for an underdog story or two but I think DH does an amazing job of being fairly fair to those that travel to their events AND those that are playing for the honor of competing (not their job).
3 azubu members cancelling is not surprising after last week's azubu news. DRG cancelling is not surprising either given no free trip, but I am surprised at Polt cancelling. Taking these 5 guys out does weaken the player pool by a lot, but I'm super happy life is going now! Hopefully life wins it all!
I love it when you get players like Life and Stephano in a group with a bunch of unknowns, it's like me and my mates turning up for a kickabout and finding out we're against Real Madrid.
Shame about the cancels, but hey, more chance for the foreigners!

What Azubu news did I miss?
Still looking forward to DH, Life is there, Jaedong, Squirtle, Taeja.. Could be fun .
