Fwiw i don't think losing to Dark/Rogue would debung any claim that trap has very good or the best pvz seeing how those 2 can play ZvP.

Trap can go toe to toe with Reynor and Serral, he can also go toe to toe with Dark and Rogue. Group D will be awsome. If there is one player slacking behind the other 3, it s Inno.

Rogue has his occasional days where he just half-asses stuff and gets eliminated in way weaker groups than this one. Dark hasn't been too hot lately (he was on the verge of going 1-2 against Nice in GTC yesterday). Trap is the most steady player in the group actually but it's still bad for him.

I actually believe they gonna try to push both trough via the team magic(it worked for groups where was Rogue & Maru)

Overall I think the groups are okay. There are no groups where one race is strongly overrepresented, which is a good thing. And I am kind of happy that both Armani and Zoun got into a group they could potentially advance from. They might not be favoured there, but I could see group A go pretty much any way possible. Overall I would argue that the groups might not be even in pure strength of the groups, but within the groups players seem kinda well matched, imo. I wouldn‘t bet on anyone to make it out of his group, nor would I bet on someone dropping out.

Ok so I just watched Patience vs Parting game 1.
I think that's one of the best PvPs I've ever seen.

This was a pretty fun group. Everybody in it played quite well. Feel bad for Bunny but he just wasn't on the level of the others. Patience played quite well and put up a good fight against Parting and Byun. Byun looked solid overall. His weaknesses are still present but he's got lots of time to fix that now.

im so fuching sad about Patience. i think he deserved his place in the ro16 but it couldnt be keep fighting Patience
