Crazy to see that Afreeca Freecs has as many players here as JAGW. I don't remember the last time a team has had as much representation as them.

All the new Code-S players are so screwed though, but excited to see if they can make something happen. I think Astrea has a very small chance if he plays Impact/Stats, but Zoun and Prince are going to have a hard time.

Code S & Super Tournament. It doesn't say how ties are broken but I imagine it's 2019 GSL results in those cases.

Also still no audience until further notice.

Is there a group of death? D I guess looks the toughest?

Groupe E is the group of life. Group of death hard to say. Maybe D by default

Gonna be tough for Special and Astrea. Scarlett should pull through if no shenanigans happen.

D is definitely the most evenly matched group and about as much of a group of death as you can really get in the first round these days. No outcome would be all that surprising. Dark should've been there instead of sOs to make it the true group D of death

I think every group except D has 2 clear favorites, so let's see how many of them get upset

Lol soO comes in second once more

Group D group of Death again, only by a hair though.

Looking far into the future:

Zest, soO
Dark, Stats
Solar, Rogue
Dear, sOs
Maru, Scarlett
Trap, Ragnarok

Group A looks like the group of death to me. Zest is top 3 protoss, soO is a top 3 Zerg, and Special is easily round of 16 talent. Overall, I think the groups look solid.

In theory, it looks good for Scarlett to get out of the group, despite the fact that she has to practice three matchups. Astrea and Special both have to practice two matchups, but they got harder groups. Fingers crossed Astrea and Special can put together some sick builds to advance.

We did have (5) at Season 1 of GSL 2018. The schedule table was updated to V2 back then.

Holy cow! Astrea made it in! 3 Foreigner hype!!

Also, really glad Taeja qualified again.

This will be a really good group stage.

Group F looks considerably more difficult than most of the other groups except for maybe Group D but I wouldn't call any of them Groups of Death exactly.
