Tell me, do you bleed?
I kind of wonder why REO and SonicFox are facing off when they could have played F0xy and Master VHD to keep the USA vs. Europe thing going.

Thats a minor gripe though, super hype for this.
It's double elimination but I still don't get how you start Sonic Fox vs REO in this.
That's the most anti-hype thing I see here. I wouldn't make them face Foxy either, because he's also one of the favorites to win this. I would put REO and Sonic Fox against those two Germans. I mean, why on earth are the two Germans facing each other in the first round, and two of the best Americans facing each other as well?

I hope we get plenty of Relentless Jason action in this. He's becoming my favorite character to play rather rapidly. >.>

they should have mixed the mitsu/madzin and Reo/Fox matches. why would you put the 2 german players and 2 top ec players up against each other in round 1?
They probably wanted to increase the likelihood of an international grand finals, best way to do that is to pit people of the same region against each other first (admittedly they did not do that in all cases)

I'm assuming it's done by seeding, not location.
It would be reasonable. But why Sonicfox is seeded #3 and Mitsuownes #2? It doesn't make sense.

PS: the seedings can be seen here:

EDIT: I get it, is from the total points. But even so, I guess the best would be wiser to make NA, EU and CIS champions the seeds 1, 2, 3 (in any given order) and go on from there
