These 12 teams will be seeded for the draw as follows:

Row 1: Netherlands, Spain
Row 2: Russian Olympic Committee, Montenegro
Row 3: Norway, Hungary
Row 4: Sweden, Japan
Row 5: France, Republic of Korea
Row 6: Angola, Brazil

These don't seem to be balanced at all. I mean, look at this potential draw outcome:

 

Group A: :NED  :RUS  :NOR  :SWE  :FRA  :BRA 

 

Group B: :ESP  :MNE  :HUN  :JPN  :KOR  :ANG

Just the same as the last what, 3 Olympics? It's discussed at every Olympics

Since Japan gets their pick, the odds of having the three weakest teams in the same group are as high as 50%.

 

Well, maybe Korea is stronger than Brazil atm.

Oh, I forgot that Japan will pick their group. We can expect :JPN and :KOR to be in the same group in that case, so we will have one non-European team in the Top8 at the very least. This also means that :FRA and :SWE will be in the same group. No matter how they will draw this, one group will be significantly stronger (the one with 5 strong European teams).
