That been said, him vs. Maru sounds like an interesting match since their "latest" offline match-up will be back to Jun. 2013, What? Are they seriously trying so hard to avoid each other due to team kill?
I don't think they're trying that hard to avoid each other. They were in the same Ro16 group in GSL once in 2015. It just so happened Maru won the group while sOs dropped out in last so they didn't get to play.
I know, but still, comparing to other same level players, their match-up is very few.

But only on paper. As the games were being played, things looked a bit differently. Classic was even on the verge of 4-0'ing Group B. So I guess we can't take anything for granted with these groups.
Hero and Trap advancing, need more P in Ro8! Maru and sOs from the other group, the trickster only had to train one match-up, it would be very surprising not to see good games from him.

The thing is, group C and D will play each other in Ro.8, so I guess it really doesn't matter who gets out from group C since two spots for Ro.4 are already fixed? Or maybe herO has a chance
