These are all crazy strong groups, with maybe Tester/fantasy/Leta/by.hero falling short because of the newcomers (and Tester lol), but you gotta give it to Stork/Bisu/YarnC/July.

Group A is made of win. We get to see some awesome PvZs.

GGPlay, Kal, Luxury, JD is a pretty tough group too.
As for Leta's group... basically a free ride for him.

Group D. Kal, Luxury, JaeDong all masters of ZvP/ZvZ.
But still I think all group expect for Group B are very difficult to predict!

Stork and Bisu makes group A quite strong, but I really think that Yarnc's weak ZvP means it won't be the toughest to break out of (also July is wildly overrated IMO).

I chose BeSt/Hwasin/Up/Flash because every player in the group is a beast in the matchups required: Flash in TvP, Flash and Hwasin in TvT, BeSt in PvT. And Up's unpredictable play may throw a wrench in any of the favorites' chances to advance.

JAEEEEDOOOOONG group is strong. All the group are great, even the tester group. Let's see if Bisu can still win ZvP.

one group with both current champions?
obvious choice

esp that they are both not-that-unlikely to get eliminated

JD, Lux and Kal? All candidates to win imo, and is atleast as strong as G1. Stork vs Bisu hypes up G1 though.

All strong groups though imo, will be a great OSL! :D

We almost got Stork - Bisu - Flash - Jaedong in group A in the selection last night, these groups are much more balanced.

All of these groups are absolutely incredible, but I think A is the strongest.

Which group is strongest?
Definitely July's group.
That group will be great. ^^
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.
