Are the groups sorted in the way the first matches will be played? (T1 vs T4, T3 vs T2)


Yes.

Groups seem pretty straightforward. I'm sure there will be some upsets, but seems like almost all the higher seeds should be favored.

You think so? There are only like 2-3 I feel like I can call confidently.

More than half of the players have got a team. That is interesting.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Wait, this means (Z)Elazer, (Z)Scarlett, (Z)Zanster, and (Z)SortOf can't participate in WCS Austin if they pass their RO32 groups .. right?

Or is (Z)TRUE being treated unfairly?

Poor ByuL. Guy gets put in a group with Rogue and Stats. Outside of G and H, I don't think he could have 2 more difficult opponents blocking him from advancing.

ByuL 2-0'd Rogue to qualify for this GSL.


Ooh I didn't know that. Interesting!

He pretty much never beats Stats and his ZvP has shown very little growth throughout LotV so I don't think he's taking that match at all.

Against Rogue he can easily win and eMotion is a bit of a wildcard that might turn out to be a decent upcomer but will likely take last in the group.

Then again, ByuL is also a bit of a wildcard. He's been one of the most elusive players in the scene for some time now and definitely the most uncommon of the previous top-tier players. Even as far back as HotS he doesn't participate in much to allow one to lockdown his current form. I mean, just last year he opened 2017 looking like the best Zerg in the world and by the second half looked to be on the verge of retirement.


You guys got me quite interested in seeing him play against Rogue now. I miss watching him in proleague, so it will be good to see again. I was wondering if he had retired without me noticing, so I definitely agree with your analysis on him lately. I would love to see him be really good again and win a GSL. Now it barely feels like he's a contender. Excited for round of 32 to begin!

something about this ro32 feels on the weaker side. Maybe i just don't know a lot of the players. Or spoiled by ASL

A lot of good players just failed to qualify.

eMotion beat special and herO (twice) to qualify.

I like to think that a group of death means that every single member has a great chance to win that current season of the GSL
