A: Classic Fantasy (but, if fantasy can't beat hurricane in R1 then RR has a good chance to advanced by beating Fantasy in losers and taking Hurricane.. His ZvT great, but he will be dumpstered 0-2 if he faces 2 protoss)
B: Gumiho Dear
C: Trap Special
D: Innovation Dark

I can't wait to see the Death Group.

I think i need to watch the group selection VOD to see how that happened.

What in the world happened that we ended up with Group D? That group is so tough!

2 protoss, a terran and a zerg in each group. Cool.

Hoping for some cool games and meta shifts. Can Dark win his first GSL?

Dark always does this to himself. It is getting hilarious. He picks someone and that person makes an awful group. And what happened to the Patience, who always helped Maru make an easier group?

This season is pretty open. A lot of hard hitters fell in the round of 32. I think Special will go through, I also think Parting will go through, Gumi should stomp and Inno should roll well. That said, this seasons has been hella unpredictable!

It's a shame that Classic didn't use his swap powers to swap Patience with Gumiho, herO, or Trap. Could've made group D even more insane.

I love the group balance, PvZvPvT, but WHAT WAS PATIENCE THINKING PICKING INNOVATION 9th!? I watched the group nom and Dark talked some serious trash at Patience, but did that smug face cause Patience to seek revenge? With FanTaSy (T), Impact (Z), Dear (terrible vP), and Hurricane (even worse vP) available, is his Ro32 result (4-1 vs Maru+Inno) overriding the general notion of who is the best? Is Dark such a jerk that you will fall on your own sword to put TvZ monster Inno in the group?

So you're telling me there is a chance that we could possibly end up with 8 protoss in Ro8? On the other hand, we could also end up with 0 and that's always something

Sucks that Classic got the swap. With Maru eliminated I was looking forward to a ro16 without one shitty group.

The Ro16 is the same anyway, because he swapped Hurricane and Fantasy

Oh, Isee, didn't know that. However I think the selection still would've gone differently if the other players didn't have to fear having the weakest player swapped out of their group if they picked him, no?

Classic was happy about his group for the first time ever. The swap wasn't even a thing that he could use to make it better.
Dark, on the other hand, got the short end of the stick again. He said that he didn't want a tough group this time. He then proceeded to choose the player that beat Maru and INno to grab the 1st place spot in his Ro32 group.

well look at it on the bright side; Dark might not lose in the RO4 again

Patience happened. When there were still many players to pick, he just went and picked Innovation. However i believe had he picked an easier opponent, Classic would have screwed this group with a switch anyway.
