And stats or the first seeds would pick worse players to be in his group or pool? Can someone give me a grandma explanation of how the pool system works for the B.net tournaments as well as these world gsl hot 6 tournaments? GSL style groups aren't round robin, it's dual tournament format instead. So each group is basically this tree: ![[image loading]](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4d/Dual_Tournament_Format_Bracket_View.PNG/609px-Dual_Tournament_Format_Bracket_View.PNG) In general you get points for doing well in GSL and the players with the most points are the highest seeded. So yeah in theory you want to pick weak players because it obviously increases your chances of advancing. | ||

He beat impact and sOs to get ro16 (not that thats saying much) On May 20 2017 06:05 DieuCure wrote: Because ro32 is weak Creator, zest, ryung, solar, patience, sOs, keen, major, scarlett, bunny, and trust all went out in ro32. I wouldn't call that weak. You can argue none of them are ro8 material or anything but they're still very strong. I reckon most of them could win a foreigner cup if they transferred over. | ||

INnoVation made him look like a complete fool in the Ro32 (and last season too), but that's INnoVation so can't be too harsh on Losira. Tastosis were making jokes about how Losira was running down an up-escalator with broken legs. That basically summed up him vs INnoVation. | ||

Honestly ByuL and Solar are possibly the only ones good enough to give him adequate practice who aren't in his group. Maybe laddering is enough but who knows. Laddering doesn't ever seem to be enough... or we'd see more foreigners qualified. He's got his work cut out for him. | ||
