Some pretty good players are going to be dropping into Code A, but right now there are more than 32 players who deserve to be in Code S...

No Offense to San, MC, Anypro and July but MvP, Nestea, MKP, FruitDealer, Leenock, Huk, and Boxer are hard to compare to.


?

Why is it a bad sign? San, MC, Anypro, and July beat those players (except for HuK and Leenock) to get where they are now.

I don't understand why everyone gives players like MvP and Nestea all this credit. Yes, they've won a GSL Final. They also got eliminated from their group in the ro32 of Code S. High caliber players should play as such. I realize that upsets happen but there's no reason to feel sorry for them. If they had played better, they'd be in the ro4 instead.

Anypro is the only person to question in the ro4, just because the strength of the players he beat to get there is sort of suspect. The other 3 have eliminated top tier players or just shown incredibly solid play and they deserve to be where they are.


MvP and Nestea are probably the best of their respective races in the world, as demonstrated by their track records. Anything can happen in a couple Bo1's which is why the better players don't always survive Ro32.

BO1 but don't forget it's a group, they had at least 2 chances.

I know this might sounds crazy I feel Leenock will make it through. I'm more worried about Nestea, to be frank. I could imagine MKP dropping as well, but he only needs to prepare against Z, and I'm sure he will be more than ready. So it'll be either Leenock or Nestea who will drop out of code S, and I have a feeling that it will be Nestea.

I noticed how a lot of TLer's didn't put BoxeR in favor.. which I am a bit shocked. Considering how the up & down matches is set up.. BoxeR, as the 4th, only need to play one set (BO 3), which is the loser of the previous match. I mean as a gamer BoxeR probably has the mind set advantage, not to mention the person he will be facing is probably tired from the previous match.

I still think he has a good shot staying in code S. Well, I hope. The forever legend Emperor WHITING~~~~~~ >///<

Honestly while leenock is in the group of death, and is unlikely to beat nestea since nestea has such a sick run for zvz in gsl, I can see him possibly taking MKP out in a BO3
Do remember that he did play MKP in one of the earlier GSLs and iirc he lost 1-2, and one of those losses are in a close position LT (the last game). So yea, even though he is not the best zerg out there, he is still an extremely solid zvt player and with the new maps I think he does have a decent chance of taking MKP out

Its a real shame that rain got in a group with hyperdub and either one will advance though. Anyone who have seen rain's tvz that isnt an all in will know how terrible he is at that matchup. His tvt is passable though so he might just get through.

You obviously have no idea how the up/down matches work do you?

He has one shot to win, the other players have 2 shots to win... Boxer is getting the raw end of the carrot dude.
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

I doubt HuK will beat Inca in a PvP, Inca is crazy good at this coinflip-matchup....but he really should beat Choya.

Its your opinion ... In my opinion, ST_Bomber is a better player than MVP and I still see Fruitdealer being better than Nestea but its fanboyism in me
