I wonder what/if GOM will have a system in place to prevent team collusion in the new up and down matches. With groups of 5 players each and 2 players from each group advancing it's possible for a player to throw his game to ensure his teammate gets through.

The GSTL change sounds amazing =]. Also it makes alot of sense that the winner of code A gets an automatic seed into Code S.

At least this time IM will make it into GSTL =p.

Pretty cool that they're expanding the GSTL to have 10 teams now instead of 8 so we don't miss out on a cool team like IM being in it. I like the new change to the RO32 for Code S too. This system definitely seems like an improvement over the last structure.

so this MLG incentive will encourage more koreans to come here to try to get into code A/S more easily i assume ... GSL qualifiers are crazy right?

Team Liquid is always hanging around 9th-10th place. How will this work out with the GSTL then?
They only have HuK and Jinro :x

Can someone from TL clarify this WHEN TL does manage to be in the top10 or qualify for the GSTL? Will we see "new" members being added to the GSTL roster or what? Or will it be a mix of foreigners representing TL?

I so hope TL can manage to get in and get enough members for GSTL :D

Code S bottleneck is still as painful as ever, I would prefer a few seeded players for Code S and just qualifier tournaments for Code S, but whatever.

GSTL on the other hand is awesome news. As much as GOM's decisions bother me, they are at least moving in the right direction, much earlier than I expected too. Hyped about the regular league.

Code S "bottleneck" is as harsh as OSL/MSL bottleneck, and no one complains about that. Just win, baby, win.

GSL & GSTL just solidified their position as the best Starcraft 2 Tournament on earth.

Now GOM just needs to clone tastosis 2-3 times so they can cast all the matches and leagues and it will be PERFECT ^^

MSL Ro32 group stage format? Weekly GSTL matches vaguely similar to the Proleague format?

BW getting into my SC2? I, for one, welcome these changes. The old Code S group stage format has sparked a ton of controversy, and I think it's a good idea to emulate the MSL format.

Having weekly GSTL for several weeks also is a fantastic, phenomenal decision. Considering that Proleague was the heart of Korean BW, I think weekly GSTL will do great things for both the teams and us spectators.

Good changes all-in-all. Nice that Code A winner gets a spot in Code S. I'd also like to see more $$$ thrown at Code A though.

Hopefully these changes will encourage TL to send back Haypro, Ret and TLO so they can actually compete in the GSTL.

Probably not though.

Maybe Jinro and Huk will have 2 lives each or perhaps they will allow the other members to play from home?

Probably not. Team liquid will likely decline the spot.

Actually, maybe team liquid can qualify as "Team Foreigner" and have whoever is in the gom house at the time play on their team.

This is a way to give the people that make the trip some air time at least.
