Instead of raging at Great and Hydra for putting Flash, Bisu, Jaedong and Sea in Group D, it could actually be more enjoyable. Think of how many Starleagues we have gone through where TBLS+Fanta+Sea have not met each other because one or both players dropped in the group stages. What Hydra has done is guarnateed that Flash, Bisu, and Jaedong would play.
Sure, a BoX between TBLS would be better than a single match. But a BoX is not guaranteed to happen in a Starleague between TBLS. So instead of the choice being between a BoX and a single match, it becomes the choice between the possibility of a BoX and a certain single match. While arguments can be made for both sides in that case, I would at least prefer a single certain match.
If there is any reason to rage at Hydra, it would be to rage that he essentially has weakened the level of play in subsequent BoX's, for his own certain benefit. This is a valid argument but at least we have the certainty of watching Flash roflstomp play Bisu and Jaedong play Sea.

its good that we get to see some great games early but i guess ppl like BoX better, there is no point to rage at hydra he did what he wanted to do not to mention great also had a hand in this

I like the hype behind the leadup to the best players meeting up in a BoX series. You root for your players to win so they can play eachother, but not only do we have fewer games between flash, jaedong, and bisu, but it seems contrived and forced. Because it is.

Most people are raging because their fans of the players. Imagine if your favorite player got stuck in that group of death and was at risk to be eliminated early on.

Im really excited though that might be related to being a flash fan

Yeah, true, part of the reason I'm so calm is because God's head to head record vs each of these players in the past year has been fairly stable lol

Its okay,Jaedong and flash will both make it out no worries.
(and we get to see flash > bisu twice which is pretty cool)
|
This was one of the funniest MSL group selections I've seen, LOL. The way the players were reacting was hilarious.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. People always whine about TBLS not meeting each other, and now we have 3 of them facing off, and what do we get? More whining and QQing, of course! Fanboys will be fanboys. I personally am excited and hyped for Group D of Death. It will be epic. And there will be many more fanboy tears.

I think that's what makes stuff like this so entertaining.
Nothing better than fanboy tears.
MMM :D

How many actually make it out of one group? One or two players?
If it's one, I feel bad for Jaedong already.

Should be two.
Would be better if the fourth player wasn't Sea, but an up-and-coming rookie like Reality

Woah, using spoilers (title) on MSL group selection. Really?

Let me QQ in other direction then. Hydra switch Bisu with Sea! If only he had switched Sea with Stork T.TLet me QQ in other direction then. Hydra switch Bisu with Sea! Only he had switched Sea with Stork T.T

I knew there was a reason my two favorite teams are Hite and Samsung.

If he could have, he would have. However, since Stork was a seed, he was fixed in his spot.
I would've loled even more if Hydra switched Bisu with Fantasy with his last switch.

Hydra such a good troll :D
|
Hell, I'm a Flash fanboy, and the first thing i did when i saw the groups was burst out laughing. This will be great, and there's plenty of talent in the other groups to ensure the MSL is still good.
|
All I can say is THIS WILL BE ABSOLUTELY EPIC!!! Tbh, I know that not many people are giving Sea a chance but if Sea beats JD in the first set, and bisu wins first set, he could win a TvP vs bisu (TvT vs flash is ridiculously low winrate :D)
