I hope everyone would give the newer players a break. Its not easy to play in front a crowd, some may bet nervous. Many players who failed in their first code A turned out to be great players in the following season, hope you give them a chance.

Eh, there is some danger in that logic. You have to realise how ridiculous tough the Code A qualifier is, Moon who dropped out of code A, absolutely demolished Code S players and westerners alike, until he eventually met his match in code S player Huk. DongRaeGu didn't even qualify this time around. MMA, a code A player won MLG convincingly. Leenock you see playing now, 2-0ed Naniwa at MLG. It seems like a lot of players absolutely choke in their first code A set, like we observed here. Creator just absolutely choked his last two games, and made mistakes that no-one on his level would be expected to make. You have to understand how ridiculously brutal the qualifier tourneys are, and the number of ridiculously good players that are actually in code A. We have players like MMA, San, Gumiho, and Boxer all in Code A, in addition to tons of other talented players.
I think that if Naniwa and Thorzian get inexperienced players at LAN play they stand an good chance to take some sets from LAN experience alone. Eventually though they will hit some players, like MMA, that do not really belong in Code A, and may have trouble. Sheth unfortunately has San first round. He is not a write off, but he is definitely the underdog in that match-up.

What are you talking about? New players are 2-0 so far
