EPTDid they change it?
Edit: I guess not. Maybe cause normally the only player i care about in Code A round of 24 is Leenock i assumed all the groups were made up of fallen Ro16 code S players.

It was hard enough to stay in Code S for two years (only 3 managed to do it so far, MKP has a chance). But to ask them to stay in Code S for FIVE years is unreasonable. With only 2-3 GSLs a year if they keep changing with OSL it will take 5 years to get it if you start the streak now... IMO make OSL count so he gets it, because atm it's stupid. There are a lot more people who has won a GSL championship, than managed to get the Nestea award. And that is for 2 years in Code S. Asking for 5 years is just ... GOM change the format please >_> | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/fOciVGU.jpg) Saw this picture at thisisgame. I can't really read korean but I am pretty sure that 10 = 10 ^^ Guess it says something about 10 seasons in a row, but whether or not it is a nestea award I don't know. Guess we'll have to wait for the interview translation. | ||

And Leenock is apparently not coming to DH summer to defend his title T_T Gumiho and Lucky is going instead. I really don't like how Leenock got snubbed by Gom for the Nestea award. WCS has effectively combined OGN and GOM so despite the location 10 Code S appearances should still count. Its not like that was even in Leenock's control. Tells me that only reason that they created such an award was to pad Nestea's stats after he started fading. Makes since to me that Leenock isn't going to DH summer, hes already set for DH winter. FXO trying to get as many eggs in that basket as possible. | ||

From the translation of this http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=414787 You’ve made Code S 10x now. It is a shame that the NesTea award was taken away but this is still an amazing achievement. it sounds like they have removed it altogether and even if he qualifies 11 season in a row he wont get it. I hope this just is a bad formed question in korean/ bad translation because otherwise it's dumb T_T Even the question says "Code S 10x" so.. They should just give him the award and then discontinue it. On the bright side: If he does qualify for the 11th season he will then have the longest streak so far (Mvp and Nestea both failed after 10). And yes it makes sense Leenock is not going to DH summer, but it is still kinda disappointing to not see him go : ( | ||

Leenock is playing Maru in the semi-final in the HSC qualifier. Winner of the entire qualifier gets a paid trip to HSC. Go! | ||

On the other hand if he wouldn't go to HSC he would stay in Korea (No HSC/DH/MLG) until like DH winter? and I think that would benefit him a lot because he kind of need to fix his ZvT. And it would hopefully show in his GSL/OSL performance. Oh well, whatever happens there is something to look forward to. | ||

Anyway, here's a recent interview with Leenock post loss vs Azubu And this gif cheered me up (Bomber challenged Leenock to come out in GSTL. Leenock accepted and won and then challenged Life but he dodged. Life the destroyer of stories, jk I like him too) + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://sc2gifs.com/gifs/leenock-beckons-life.gif) His stats for OSL: ![[image loading]](http://terrancraft.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/wcs-player-stats-group-ef.jpg) JKS and Leenock talking about Leenock being a bench-warming lol, first time I see him with glasses. | ||
