They choose in their eyes the two worst players so one of them will always remain code S, which just sucks. Rain or Rainbow will remain and Lyn or Ensnare will remain... The latter two are alright but rain and rainbow should definately both be out. The whole GSL system is just atrocious to be honest. Just have code A finalists automatically place code S and have less up and down groups or something. Either way Huk is most likely out, sad for him and liquid but I don't think he is even close to code S material. I don't foresee alot of succes for jinro either, he'll have a good chance to stay code S but the strength of the upcoming code S seems to high for him imo. Honestly I think liquid is better off doing like Idra and just focussing on NA/EU tournaments. Much more chance to make good money. GSL is just having awful payouts for how hard it is, any foreigner getting to the finals is just not going to happen and not getting there has low payoffs. This happened with Liveforever and san, and you all know how san performed in the following season.... The system works fine, the prize money for winning Code A isn't very large but being able to choose their groups is HUGE | ||

MKP does have some of the best macro in code S when he does play macro games, in a long game he would almost certainly out-macro Huk. His only big weakness is he sometimes makes bad decisions with his composition, particularly when he stays with MMM for way too long, which isn't such a big problem against Toss because if you mix in some ghosts and vikings you have a very strong late-game composition. I know he can macro when he wants to. All I meant was it's normal for MKP to play aggressive and therefore it doesn't make sense to interpret that as him being afraid of HuK. | ||

I'd love to see Bomber tearing it up in Code S, he has shown that he is a a really top tier player. I think he could win a GSL. | ||

Thing is, Rain cheesed his way almost through the entire GSL season 3. Inca played mostly standard in the group stages and versus Virus and cleaned up. He only really cheesed against Nada. Inca also has proven himself to be pretty darn strong in PvP. Rain has shown us that when he goes into a macro game he falls apart - when Inca's cheese in game 3 versus Nada failed, he transitioned into a unique build of chargelots, sentries and HTs to stay alive and still win. Inca is much more stable than Rain. | ||
