OP updated to reflect the final ro32 results.

Currently there are zero wild card spots, BUT every ro16 match has a player that has Code S or clinched a Code S wild card spot, so we could see up to 6 wild card spots open up.

Here are the matches that are really going to matter for the players still going for Code S wild card spots:

ST_Squirtle vs. TSL_Rain
BitByBitPrime.WE vs. TSL_FruitDealer
oGsMC vs. ST_July
PoltPrime.WE vs. LiquidJinro

Underlined players are the ones that would unlock a wild card spot if they win.

Note that wild card spots have already been opened up from the NesTea vs. Maka and MarineKing vs Leenock matches as a wild card spot would open up no matter who wins.

Also note that in TheBest vs HongUn and mvp vs choya, if TheBest and/or choya win that would take them out of the wild card running. So, there would be one less possible wild card spot, but one less player vying for that spot. And if HongUn and/or mvp win, it would open another wild card spot, but would still have the same amount of players going for wild card.

Because each of the players with only 699 points will eliminate themselves with a loss,
Tankboy and jookToJung only care about the 4 matches you listed here regardless of what happens with choya or TheBest (since win or lose, those players will be ahead of them).
If at least 3 of the underlined players win, jookToJung is in. If 2 lose, he's out.
If all win, Tankboy is in. If one loses, he's out
If at least 2 underlined players win, Anypro, LegalMind, choya, and TheBest clinch, but if 3 or 4 lose, it will depend on the results of choya and TheBest as well as tie-breaker procedures.

Good to see MVP make it in S-class, well-deserved.

Looking at the S code player list, there isn't one person who I say to myself, they don't deserve to be on that list. So overall I'm pretty happy with GSL results as a whole, (though I wish ret made it further). Goodjob everyone

I still don't think SanZenith deserved Code S

Ya, I agree, he made ro16 in GSL1, which is clearly less of an accomplishment than doing that in GSL2 or 3, and then had that absolutely awful ro32 series in GSL2.

The other person that might make Code S and may not deserve it is jookToJung. Granted, he is one of the few players to qualify for all 3 GSLs, but hasn't done anything in them, only getting out of the ro64 once in GSL1.

Hell, I suppose you could make an argument for the one hit wonders, NEXLiveForever, sSKS, and NaDa. But sSKS and NaDa are generally considered to be good players and NEXLiveForever did get to ro4 in GSL1, beating Maka and an inexperienced NesTea.
