Group A (P)free - (T)Mong - (Z)Larva - (T)Mind Free wanted some PvT and picked Mong. Mong was disappointed to see hero assigned to group D, undoubtedly craving revenge for the SSL. He picked Larva instead and cheered on the casters, promising cool games. Overexcited from playing some Sudden Attack, Larva picked Mind (good luck mate). Mind noted that after Britney asked Shuttle to pick Mind next, he's really sad that didn't happen. He said that Larva is a good player but he doesn't expect him to make it out of the group.
Group B (T)sSak - (P)Movie - (T)HiyA - (Z)EffOrt sSak was out on a date. He originally had Britney in mind but upon learning he was seeded to another group, he picked Movie to get his revenge for the SSL. trOt noted he knows sSak from his trainee days or something like that (he was a coach for SKT). Movie wouldn't pick up the phone, so they phoned sSak again but he didn't pick up either. Finally, Hiya was assigned as the third to group B by the casters. trOt noted he's friends with Hiya from seven years ago, but Hiya trolled him saying he has no memories of him at all. Hiya said he also wanted to play hero, just because he likes him so much. He settled for Effort. Effort said he wanted to get to play Piano in group C, and generally fancied group C more.
Group C (P)Britney - (P)Shuttle - (T)PianO - (Z)ZerO Britney wanted to pick Bisu, who isn't in the league, so he settled for Shuttle. He then adressed Shuttle, asking him to pick Mind next. Shuttle disregarded Britney's request and picked PianO because while he likes him, he's a notorious TvP choker. PianO had Last and Zero to choose from and casters noted he's certainly going to pick the Zerg since that's his specialty but Piano said he really wanted to avoid playing Zero in the same group since they're from the same team. However, since there were two other Protosses in the group, he ended up picking Zero.
Group D (Z)hero - (P)Jaehoon - (T)BishOp - (T)Last The original seed was Bishop, but he wasn't there to pick so they removed him and did another draw - hero. hero asked if there's any protoss left, there was only Jaehoon and after some thinking, hero picked him. Jaehoon was abroad so he just sent a message asking the commentator to pick for him, and was assigned Bishop. Last was the only player left for group D. He said that he'd be confident in any group, although the neighborhood group C would have been a guaranteed advance. He's not really aiming for any placing but rather hopes to show fun games.
Some notes I wrote down watching group selection a few days back. May not be 100% accurate and there's a lot of stuff missing but it's something if you're into banters like this. You can add that to OP eon

That's some backhanded comment considering that you have only 3 posts on BW.

no care about small tourneys he gets more balloons in a day than from competing
Not sure he'd be able to score 6M KRW/$5,000 USD in one day from balloons alone, but yea, the risk (i.e. hit to his reputation/stature) might not justify the reward in his case. Then again, he participated in Terror's league which featured a smaller prize pool
Hopefully it just means Bisu can concentrate on doing well at the SSL and KSL, instead

if even someone like Shuttle reap lots from balloons, im sure Bisu used to get that kind of amount at least on his first days of streaming. or maybe theres bigger tourneys other than KSL2 incoming :o
Yet another league, very nice! If there is a group of death, it's definetly group A. Predictions: Free & Mind Ssak and effort who will give up Zero and Shuttle Hero and Last
