And from there everything changes. But it could have just as easily gone the way it did even if the bowls were right. It's still just as random.
It guarantees that Naniwa is not in group 1. Sure it would still be random afterwards, but it's still not correct.

Europeans have a thing about rigged draws, it's in their blood

They always get you with the fine print. What is it this time? Flash makes it to Code S finals, loses to Shine 0-4?

if they went by citizenship or however the Olympics does it, then would it not racism though?

Hydra making it into the ro8 is a not guaranteed, neither is violet. Forgg should definetly make it, polt more likely than the other 2, hydra has a decent shot violet is a maybe.

Messioso teasing poor Nate .

Did all the Koreans that participated in the qualifiers make it in?

Gosh, this season of WCS seems... unprepared.
No rule book, no schedule, and what seems like an incredibly hasty group drawing. Compared to last year, WCS seems pretty awful in terms of preparation.
Did someone kind of just forget that WCS was going to be happening?

noooo plz don't redraw the groups!!! we have such awesome matchups right now! why ESL?

Did someone kind of just forget that WCS was going to be happening? agreed, I also find it weird that there's no more partner tournaments announced yet after IEM Taipei

DH France is likely to be a WCS event, but it is just in may

It offenses that some players know where they gonna play and others do not know it. And if you concider that Germany (4 of 8 Visa Groups ) and USA (the other 4) have sometimes strange visa problems when it comes to esport-athlets form RoC and PRC, we hope that WCS does not throw this up. And yeah a pure ZvZ Group... but that is biased. This whole season 1 is a serious mess: Extremly late mappool that GSL plays on its own and we still now know (and possibly the players too) on what maps they play the premiere. Playdates announced really late while you know every GSL Playday, WCS tells you some dates 5-7 days before they go. Players from LA didnt know where to attend for the LA Qualifier for long time Now some players are allowed to choose where to play (PIG), others have been told where they play (Targa) and other just sit in the blue and guess what? Dont know if they need a visa and if they have to play next week in some land where they dont get one in time. so basically nothing in other words
