+ Show Spoiler [The Format (Quoted from the FAQ)] +What is the MBCGame SurvivorMBCGame Survivor, commonly referred to as Survivor, is the qualification tournament for the MSL. There are 12 groups of 4 players with 2 people advancing from each group into the MSL. That makes a total of 24 players which come from Survivor to the MSL. Who plays in Survivor?The 24 failures from the previous MSL are guaranteed a spot in Survivor and they make up half of the player pool. The other 24 come from the Offline Preliminaries – which will be explained later. So that makes a total of 48 players competing for 24 available spots. How does Survivor Work?A survivor group is played in a dual tournament format. Dual Tournament FormatThe winning two players advance through to the MSL while the other two have to try their luck next season and re-qualify through the offline preliminaries. What maps do they play on?Survivor uses all 4 maps from the previous MSL, but the order of the maps vary from group to group. Usually, there is 1 map for the first game, a different map for the second game, 1 map for both the winners and the losers and 1 map for the tiebreak. These maps may or may not be used in the upcoming MSL. What is the result of Survivor?24 players advancing from Survivor + 8 seeds = 32 players for the next MSL.

There should be 3 so far but shark and luxury both choked massively. (I really can't believe shark lost that game against gogo... he had such a lead but just fell apart.)

Is sAviOr playing the dude that knocked him out last season?
added: nvm knocked him on OSL prelim.
|
good for Tempest but don't see him making it any futher..
|
jangbi's pvz has really exploded as of late. Now just explode in pvp and take your [rightful] place amongst starcraft legends Jangbi! Wooo
|
omg, look at that, no zergs advancing untill now. luxury got kicked out. jd is the only one holding up the zerg pride ... lets just hope he doesnt face any of his team mates in the elemination stage
|
|
There's like no zergs advancing D: Good to see sAviOr coming back, but I wonder if he's going to dominate if he lost one to UpMagiC.
Rooting for the underdog, Tempest gogo!
|
That Byzantium map is very frightening...

faster than the live report thread. r&s power!

I swear, if only 2 zergs make it through... idk what i'll do.
|
That is a hell load of Terrans.
|
This is going to be a boring as hell MSL if there are only going to be 2 Zergs :\

interesting... in group 7, only the first column won o.O
but yeah, a severe lack of zergs. what happened to Lux
however, I could see Yarnc, Calm make it, maybe...
|
Holy shit, this MSL is gonna suck and not just because i'm a Zerg fan, think of all the TvT's, worst MU ever.
Savior has no chance to advance in a group vs nothing but Terrans unless he somehow manages to play like he did 1 year ago, i wish he could though.
Jaedong destroyed Flash so he shouldn't have any problems this MSL.
|
think of all the tvt's! Best match up ever. This is gonna be an awesome msl, even more so because group 12- I think really is gonna make it through. GoGo Really!
|
has there ever been a major league with matchups that were this skewed before?
|
Don't anyone try to blame the maps, the zerg players have been playin shit and its their fault.(Only possible exception i could see is Savior vs Upmagic on Byzantium)
|
Terran players have always been dominating the Korea SC scene, hence a lot of followers :D

Whatever. Byzantium looks like a bad map for zerg. ZvP = 0-7. It's not just bad play.
17 terrans advanced and only 5 zerg. MSL really needs to start choosing more balanced maps.
|
Show me one game where the zerg player played good and lost because of the map. I havent seen one.
|
Heyy!!
sAviOr made it through!!
|
5 zerg, 10 toss, 17 terran :D
