so many uninterested groups...
best example is group f, 4 interested player in a group means 3 other uninterested groups for me.
Its better for me if in every group is one (minimum) interested player.

Uhhhh, Maru too godly. Instead of taking the name "Optimus" he switched his whole Team's name to "Pirme"!

Rain and Soulkey should be very happy about their groups. Both of them can completely focus on their ZvP. Will be interesting to see group E. I think First and flash will make it out, but hyvaa is a wildcard and jjakji's TvT has always been quite good, right? So I guess a lot of it will come down to who plays who and how not to lose the coinflips agains hyvaa.

My predictions currently would be:
Soulkey, Swagger
Trap, Keen
sOs, SuperNova
Maru, Bbyong
First, flash
InnoVation, Gumiho
Rain, KangHo
Super, soo

Well this is unfortunate... and here I was excited that DRG was in the premier league again. That's a tough group for him, here's hoping he overcome's the odds!

Group F is the group of hype, not the group of death. I see 3 top, but pretty inconsitent players, and a champion, who has been shown to have obvious weaknesses. It is tricky group to predict, but it is nowhere near the death level of Parting/Life/Innovation/Flash (at the time that happened ). The othres are also pretty balanced, but that is not too surprising in a real GSL. Good games ahead!

Are there fixed pairings for the ro16 or will there be a group nomination like the last GSL?

i find group E and group C to be the most dangerous ..

group F has innovation but innovation is the only crazy level there .. DRG is the next closest to innovation in their group and he is not presenting results nowadays

Group F definitely the group of death. Should be great to see the games from that group.

I hope Flash makes it out. Unless First poops on the party, everything should work out.

Maybe innovation is the chosen one to break the curse. The one to finally free Artosis.

thats both ridiculous and impossible .. i think he will still get to finals .. and be utterly destroyed by all-ins

i don't think that group is easy for Flash. he has a pretty decent chance of making it out but it doesn't look too easy.

Bomber hwaiting!!!! lose in the finals motherfucker!!!!
