CODE A IS SO STACKED  (((Boxer might hit JINRO Ro16, only one into Up and Down I want to see how good ShinyStar is... He got through the terrible Code A qualifiers without a team. MMA vs PUZZLE, Puzzle very good, poor MMA has Puzzle then possibly Steth, both good players Sheth vs SAN, should be good. Ryung hitting GuMiho, good terrans. Plz win Ryung, and FREAKING SMILE FOR ONCE! Min hitting IMYoda.. ouch If Min wins, he might have to face Leenock!!! Grrrr. | ||

Great bracket for oGsHero. To get to Ro8 he only needs to beat Noblesse + the Check/Choya winner. GuMiho getting Ryung in Ro32 makes me sad. So does MMA/Puzzle/san/Sheth all competing for one chance at Code S. | ||

I remember Soccer being a scrub then he joined FOX and moon basically whipped that guy into shape. Congrats to him and hopefully he does well in sc2. On another note, really too bad we're not going to see Nani and Thorzain or sase in this one. I was excited about that. This month's GSL's are going to be EXPENSIVE! not sure if its worth it. | ||

Skillwise, the bracket seems to be poorly distributed, some players just get autowins to the Ro8. But there's also a bunch of unknowns in there, maybe we'll see some new gosus. Happy and Soccer strike me as particularily promising, even if I've never seen them play | ||

Sheth vs San should be quite interesting. I don't know who to cheer for. San plays an extremely entertaining PvT and PvZ, and it would break my heart to see him get knocked out of GSL. Sheth is also a really great Zerg and a really nice person, and it would break my heart to see him knocked out as well. My heart can't take the results of that match. Jinro vs IOvShinyStar should be interesting, especially since I've never heard of the latter player's team before. And that kpop song is now stuck in my head. LOL at asdfOu vs SlayerS_BoxeR. You know that Koreans are getting lazy with their names when they start calling themselves asdf and Progamer. | ||

Well ShinyStar did beat TheSTC to qualify for Code A who is very good. I can see Jinro losing the match if he keeps playing like he has been. | ||

Boxer is probably among the easiest players one could face in the Ro16, unless he's stepped up his play since the last time we saw him. I would rate him a mere good, and we all know how cutthroat Code A has become. Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked to see Jinro and Boxer fall in the Ro32, although I really hope it doesn't come to that. Jinro has been showing rather disappointing results lately, and the competition he faced at Dreamhack was surely weaker than the players lOveShinyStar beat to get into Code A. BoxeR is good, like I said, but people seem pretty scared of NuclearfOu (now asdfOu). Jinro and Boxer were lucky to not get matched with players like Hero or GuMiho, but they could definitely be in trouble. | ||

Shinystar is teamless apparently, but he wasn't the quickest to qualify for code A, so I am thinking he isn't cheesey. But some managers did say he wasn't that good. I really hope Jinro can stay in code A at least. And of course, sheth gets his favourite match up first round | ||

No. Before sC's rise, a lot of people (even Choya himself) acknowledged that he was the best Terran in fOu. At one point (about three - four months back), he had very impressive ladder ranking if I'm not mistaken. And also, there are quite a number of people in the GSL that trains with him when preparing for Terran players. | ||

But I'm kinda worried for MMA, as he plays Puzzle, a very hyped Protoss and TvP is his weak matchup. If TheStC and DongRaeGu made it, perhaps this Code A could be more exciting for me, but at the moment Code S is definitely now the cream of the crop. | ||

http://www.gomtv.net/2011gslsponsors3/news/65291 Pro Circuit Players Competing in the GSL At MLG Columbus, the Top 3 non-Korean finishers will each be placed into GSL Code A. At every 2011 Pro Circuit Live Competition after MLG Columbus, GSL placement will occur as follows: Code S status will be awarded to the highest placing player, regardless of country of origin, who doesn't already have Code S status. Code A status will be awarded to the next 3 highest placing non-Korean players. If Code S status is awarded to a Korean player, Code A status also will be awarded to the 4th highest placing non-Korean player. All travel and accommodation expenses for these players will be provided by the GSL. Also top 3 foreign seeds that were awarded code A status (unless they gave their spot away: EG.Idra (4th)(probably gave his seed away) ROOT.Slush (5th)(Slush is now with Team Reign)(don't know?) DIGNITAS.Naniwa (6th)(accepted code A seed) MLG had the right to grant three Code A spots to top competitors at MLG Columbus. Naniwa accepted that offer and will participate in the GSL August. FXO.Sheth placed 14th at MLG Columbus, and was awarded a Code A seed. Hope this clears things up guys. edit: additional info. | ||

I don't care about great games in Code A, Code A is for cheering my favourite players and hoping they get to Ro8 to get into Code S. I'll worry about good games when I'm watching Code S. | ||

Sorry but I feel like that is the wrong sort of attitude to have towards Code A. If you really want good players in Code S then you need to have good players in Code A and thus the competition needs to be...well, competition. Code A is definitely not just for cheering on your favorite players. | ||

Last season Bomber vs MVP was a far greater final than Nestea vs Inca. Heck, a lot of Code A games were fantastic, its a shame Code A gets underrated as "the second best" of Korea as opposed to "the future" of Korea. | ||

At this point the level of play in Korea is so high the only 'walkover' opponents are the few remaining veterans barely hanging onto vestiges of their past glory like Check and theWind. Guys like Tails and Puzzle don't have as much name value as San but IMO they'd be just as much of a threat to make a deep run. Although Sheth almost certainly won't make it to the Ro8 since he's on a collision course with MMA, San hasn't shown anything impressive since Khaydarin amulet was removed so I think Sheth has a reasonable chance of winning. | ||

This code A will deliver that. Also, I'm glad that Thorzaine and Naniwa are able to wait a month and get some real solid practice in before they try for their code S run. I expect big big things this summer GSL, and they're looking damn fine so far. | ||

The new guy doesn't have stage experience, right? That could be pretty huge. We've already seen some pretty good players choke hard on stage. Think San. As for San, I hope Sheth has some good anti-timing attack builds ready, because San will be coming for him. (I also had forgotten that San was knocked down to Code A) And, though I know most people didn't watch a lot of Code A until recently, this is actually the best bracket so far. Things are a little more spread out than they have been. Less of the well known players will be knocking each other out. Oh, and Choya is back in Code A after falling out, for someone that thought he hadn't gotten booted yet. | ||

He just needs that spark again to get better. I think he might be bored of the game or depressed or something about how hes playing right now. He just needs some motivation again, maybe that means seeing old friends in EU/US again. | ||

MMA will have a hard time facing Puzzle (if his TvP hasn't improved). I hope that Creator will do well, he looked very promising in his matches in both code A and super tournament. Gumiho will probably beat Ryung, randoms are so scary (even if he is terran now). Can't wait to see the IM terrans do well | ||

It's also very hard to qualify for the GSL, and that's just to get into Code A, the tournament division that gives barely any money for winning it. A player can be very unlucky in the GSL Qualifiers, and it's also another reason why I feel that single elimination tournaments do not truly test the skill of a player. Consider this, in order to qualify for Code A, you either have to: A) Go through the open qualification tournament where you'll face a load of tough Korean and a few foreign players whom try to enter the tourney. B) Reach 2nd - 4th place in a Major League Gaming event. | ||

It only starts in MLG Anaheim onwards. HOWEVER (and this is pure speculation at the moment), given the flexibility that GOM has chosen to exercise by pushing Naniwa and Thorzain's Code A seeds to GSL August, it could be possibility that the seed may end up with MMA eventually. I make this speculation because MLG Anaheim ends one week before GSL August is scheduled to begin, and I don't think it'll give the winner sufficient time to prepare to head over, which means there will be a spare spot in Code S next season. Gom's very flexible with this, so it'll be interesting to see. | ||

As for the ID change, GSL is pretty prone to confirming IDs a bit later (MMA used to be known as M for one game then they changed it to MMA). I'm alright with Hopetorture though, maybe since he did extremely well with that ID he's decided to change it back? Lol. | ||

Good grief. I mean, if San goes some wonky carrier build like he did in the team league vs Sen, I can see it working out well for sheth - sheth's a very adaptable player. But san's multitasking is pretty scary, I could see him harassing Sheth into the ground | ||

And, as you can see, I'm not sold on either making it to the Top 8: oGsHero has just as good a shot, and I might give him a slight edge. | ||

Also, jinro will go out first round, and then he will finally go home to sweeden, get into a relaxed mood and come back better in EU/NA tournaments. | ||

I'm not even joking. That is actually the moment when it all went downhill for our Gorilla Terran. Really hope he will bounce back. | ||

First of all, even if Jinro loses (unlikely), he isn't going home. He's staying in Korea no matter what and has said so several times. | ||

Like QXC having to play DRG in the qualifiers :[ So hard. I was thinking, looks like they want to f*** up the FXO guys, making them look horrible at playing or something like that, only hard matches, they got only two options, glory or get owned hard. First round of GSTL is vs StarTale (if I'm not wrong). That is just not, just not fair. Gogogo Sheth! Hope he makes Ro8, for real, I like MMA but I'd love to see Sheth making it further. Jinro should win his games with an ease tbh, hes playing poorly, but I bet he has on his mind something like: "I was in code S, I'm fcking good, I can do this". I don't think he's going to win, but I don't know, he may beat BoxeR in some good matches, if both get in Ro16. p.s. bad english, bad player - don't take my thoughts so seriously, I'm just a newbie fanboy cheering :F | ||

I'm so hyped to see you do well. San is a great macro player, he's made two GSL semi finals which is considerably more than Sheth has achieved. | ||

San is not as strong as he was couple of month ago, he makes soo many mistake in both his games in the GSL, supercup and also the recent korean weekly tournament by csn. Shinystar got to GSL by beating an out of practice STC, the STC who gotten crushed by supernova in a recent tournament (and supernova's tvt is not good), shinystar also has not played in front of live audience yet and probably prone to stage fright. Compared to the players they could have been drawn against, hero, j, mma, leenock, ryung, gominho puzzle and many others, i think the foreigners have it rather easy. That is not to say I underestimated them, since I only see only a small number of "bad" players in code A. Jinro and Sheth fighting! | ||

That is indeed a pretty damn epic name. Sheth vs San will be very interesting and I think it could go either way, San's weakness is pvp so its not his worst match up for sure. | ||
