Guaranteed promotion to Code S?
Hot_Bid: ST_July
Lovedrop: ST_July
Treehugger: GuineaPig
TrueRedemption: TLAF-Liquid'Ret
Xxio: TLAF-Liquid'Ret


Seriously you guys? I know this is the TL forums and everything, but to put someone who went 2-3 in code A qualification, and having all the other games go his way just to get in as the one person you guarantee for code S? Bordering on criminal.

<3 to all the people who explained the GSL format in their digrams and tree analagies.

The descriptions of each player are also very interesting thanks for this

I can't... believe I... read it all... great post.

Does anyone else think that Group H (Jinro, Idra, Check, Ensnare) is actually the hardest to call about who will get through?

GSL free service now has even worse streaming, the quality is so low I can't even distinguish the units on sharpen, well at least it doesn't have lags just like before. >_<

And it error's 15 times during the last game...great.

It's going to be quite interesting to see Jinro's rock solid terran skills versus Idras godlike zerg abilities. A good season to be sure!

Amazing work! Thank you for the players analysis, it makes much more sense now with prespective over the past 3 GSL.
In the end we all return to the void...

I have created some images that show the current wins and losses for for both Code A and Code S. Thought some people would like to see it. Let me know if this is useful and I will keep it updated.

later today, if treehugger is right, I'm gonna be pist. I don't think choya will go far at all. (kinda funny how hot_bid said he would drop out)
Group D is gonna be awesome.

Treehugger wasn't entirely right!
But still sad though that Choya advanced although he did what he needed to do so props to him for doing that.

I like TesteR a lot, so I don't mind being wrong about that. Hot_Bid got the leg up on the disappointment prediction, so it was inevitable that he got something else horrifically wrong!

I'm going to laugh if MC loses to inca and doesn't make it out of his group.
and before you get angry, inca has had the best PvP in korea besides maybe genius.
Where as MC has never shown any amazing PvP
