Wth.... why are they redrawing? If they needed more time, do it before the first draw. This is totally amateurish.

When will they redraw? I just hope Snute won't get a harder group
(well tbh between the Naniwa error, the general incomprehension over the CIS thing and the twitter discussions with TargA/PiG it is pretty normal that they redraw it).

They are redrawing because they couldn't let Firecake with 3 protosses , so much SH turtle would have killed SC2 for good. It was a courageous decision !

Aeromi told that right? If i see his Tweets, he said that Nani was in NA bowl, thats why its going to redraw. But they took it out and put it back to EU. So for there is no need for redraw. Or did I miss something

Well thats becauseEU has more players than other regions, if u can see some of the EU players were split in to sea/southAmerica while others to China/Taiwan. Like Serral,uThermal, Firecake, Morrow were in Sea/SouthAmerica bowl, while Mana,Happy, were in China/Taiwan bowl.

He was put into EU bowl after the group 1 EU player had already been drawn, that means Naniwa had 0% chance of getting in group 1, which is not fair. There are also quite a few other issues which they probably will not resolve:

-names of players not being in something sealed (envelope etc.), sure nathanias sort of looked away but that's still amateurish
-Naniwa's Card having a troll face on the backside so distinguishable from the others (and yet it was in false bowl, sup).
-unclear criterion for the 4 EU players in the SEA/Latin America/EU2 group. Maybe it was randomly drawn that would be fine but it looks like it is based on WCS Points with exceptions made for Targa and Naniwa who got into EU1. Clarification from the admins how it was selected would be fine
-arbitrarily creating a CIS region which had no qualifiers (what will they do next seaons when it isn't 2* CIS players who qualify)

*actually just Happy is from CIS, Poland (Mana) is no part of it.

Putting EU players in different bowls is alright but it should be not based on some arbitrary criterion like "let us introduce a CIS region which had not qualifiers and is inconsistent with everything and won't work next season" but on merit (WCS points, time of qualification etc.) or random.

ESL admins are so incompetent. More than not broadcasting draws, everybody finds the different WCS draws very strange.

Now they are so bad that they made mistake and want to redraw it ! HA HA SO PRO !

Please consider that hazard is important in a draw (even if we don't know how your draws are made), please consider the hazard as a key in the main SC2 competition and assume. Don't draw again and let the players play.

Can you imagine FIFA redraw a World Cup ? No. Be professionnal now.

Redrawing is preventing this competition from the fair hazard and will make all the players mad about the new draw...

Well maybe that CIS fucked it up, but it still its no reason to redraw, I mean the players already maybe started to practice. Would be 2 days of waste. And its really unprofessional.

Making a mistake and not correcting it is unprofessional, also you totally ignored the Naniwa issue.
Ignoring all other problems aside from Naniwa in wrong bowl, it would be enough to redraw the EU1 players as the other bowls were not affected by it.

Wow, messing up the drawing of the groups.
I wish they were a little bit more professional.
Announcing this stuff over twitter isn't exactly professionalism either. Who is Aeromi and how is he qualified to make such an official statement? I am a bit disappointed. And apparently the drawing was also not done with indistinguishable player representations in the bowl.

I agree, the whole thing is really unprofessional.

Btw "hasard" is "luck" or "chance" in English, "hazard" has a different meaning

Isn't redrawing pretty standard and professional when the drawing is flawed and has to be modified post-drawing, meaning it does not totally respect the luck/randomness factor?

I am not ignoring Naniwas bowl. I mean if i watched it right, he was in NA bowl, and then they put him in EU bowl after that first group draw right? So I see there no problem, since he was EU bowl after all. Or is there happened something more?
