Top 8 of season 1 should've had auto entry into the ro64. | ||

If nothing else, I'm very interested to see how the "unknown" fares going forward. EDIT: Note, I'm not particularly saying that the lack of seeding is a good thing, I'm just throwing it out there that maybe Kim Byung Jun is actually just good at Starcraft. | ||

The first 3 GSL seasons are actually to determine the seeds starting with GSL 4. The top players are given the rank "S" and are allowed to seed into the Ro64. | ||

It was 2-0, and by the hundreds of posts on the other thread, didn't look like it was cheese, instead it was really smart play and smart studying. I'm pretty sad that nobody is going to give this guy any credit for taking out tester, instead they just blame it on cheese/luck. I'm with iNcontroL. The game is so new that nobody can ever be guaranteed to qualify, tester, cool, etc. included. Anyone can lose, and today, it was Testers day to lose. | ||

Would really like to see replays, I'm a bit confused why pro toss keep having problems with early t rushes, first jangminchul, then huk vs qxc who surprisingly likes to go zealot, stalker, stalker instead of a sentry, and now tester, is it really that necessary to play aggressive when t can have the advantage early and your widely regarded as the better player? | ||

If they just seed the top 2 its only 6 players but that would be really limited, I think top 4 should be seeded into the next tournament and the rest of the top 8 seeded into the end of a qualifier. The way they are doing it if they try and seed a fair number 4-8 players they will fill basically 1/4th the bracket. Kind of ridiculous :/ Can you source this? | ||
