The group play seems like it'll give chances for people like IMMVP to stay in code S by doing some code A stomping instead of losing code S status so easily if they have 2 off days. Something that's not clear: "15 players will play in 5 player group with top two players in the group advancing to code S." => That means only 6 players (3 groups x 2 players each) get into code S. Even adding MLG champion to that it only means 7 players get into code S. A translation mistake or my math is bad? The GSTL seems like they're trying to make it so that all teams, no matter how big or small, get a chance to play and maybe upset the top dogs. If I'm not mistaken, isn't Liquid in the top 10 with the current team qualification system? But it seems more like the 10 teams will be chosen through invitation only, with Liquid being excluded since they don't have enough players. They're really trying to avoid another IM situation. All in all, some interesting changes to shake up the system, patching up holes here and there. I can even see a slight change that might make it so that they could insert another code S invite in the future by limiting the Up and Down group play by one more spot. Maybe NASL can start negotiating, as they seem to be the only other regularly happening league. EDIT: Wow, idiocy here. Missed that code A champion is sent into code S directly. Durrr. | ||

A v B C v D Winner A/B vs Winner C/D (match 3)--> Winner of this qualifies 2-0 Loser A/B vs Loser C/D (match 4) ---> Loser of this is eliminated 0-2 Loser match 3 vs Winner Match 4 ---> Winner of this qualifies 2-1, Loser eliminated 1-2 That way it also guarantees a 1,2,3,4 ranking | ||

Winning Code A has a lot of worth now and winner of MLG going straight into Code S!!!! Also 10 teams? I can only really think of 9 teams with enough players unless they introduce a "Foreigners" team where all the foreigners out there at the time compete? uuum Slayers Ogs Mvp Im Tsl St Fou Zenex Prime HoSeo 10!! and i think Fox and Woojing can include more player for this league | ||

GSTL Every thursday and Friday. GSTL will be broadcasted with 10 teams. 10 teams will be divided to two groups, 5 teams each. Each league will play full league with top 3 teams advancing to playoff. Total of 20 games will be played. GSTL 'regular' season will be played for 10 weeks. FUCK YEAH been wanting a proleague system but this works too time for non-code A/S players to start beasting GSTL | ||
