How do the "offline qualifiers" work exactly? And does "offline" imply that there are also "online" ones? Is these any requirement to get into the qualifiers or can anyone play in them?

Offline implies that they are not shown on TV. It's also called PC Bang League, cause that's where they're played at. We can get photos and stuff at the qualifiers but it ain't shown on TV. "Online" simply means that they're shown on TV.

I actually am not sure about the second question. I think anybody can play in them but I know I'm wrong.

Just out of curiosity, how hard is it to be in the OSL league if one is in the offline preliminaries?
Could players like Xellos, Nal_Ra make a comeback in the OSL anytime soon?

It is VERY hard. You have to practically win nonstop. Remember how Yooi had to endure like 17 hours of preliminaries just to get a seat in ODT? Good thing about OGN prelims is if you've accomplished more as a progamer than the others you get some byes.

But I mean you have to play lesser known pros who just study your replays all the time.

If YellOw does not qualify, I will be horrified, pissed, annoyed, troubled, angry, vexed, and all-out mad. Very, very mad.

6 spots in the OSL left. Only 2 Protoss remain in ODT. Protoss fans, you guys better start praying for TT and Much cause they're gonna need it.

Methink the distribution of the tournament's gonna be:
12 Terran
10 Zerg
2 Protoss

Oh dear =[

Anytime has taken Reach's spot. History repeats itself.

Wow... Bisu, Free, and Much all lost PvZ tiebreakers on Shin Peaks of Baekdu. They either had bad luck or the map favors Zerg. Grrrrr, this is such a depressing OSL for Protoss

I hope people are ready for a shitload of TvZ matches. Much is a longshot to qualify from his group and I'd say TT has around a 50/50 chance. We could be looking at a single Protoss in this OSL, wow. I hope Anytime steams through every Z/T he faces and 3-0's SaviOr in the finals. Oh, how sweet life would be.

I get the feeling anytime will tough it out as the only Protoss.

They need to put some island maps back in so Protoss can increase their numbers. But then Zerg would start complaining. I think either a Terran or sAviOr is gonna win this OSL. You saw it here first.

I hope once Savior finally made it he will run over all those wannabes

And one Protoss in Starleague omg that's just not fair. Not a big toss fan but a Reach or some other cannon rusher would be a welcome respite in between all those epic TvZ.
