Ganzi vs Banbansu - free win for Ganzi Naniwa vs Check - Naniwa draws the weakest opponent in all of code A DRG vs Inca - free win for DRG Yoda vs theBest - wtf is theBest doing back in code A? Sorry no more protosses for you to 1 base against Jinro vs Lucky - Ok well I said Jinro vs Line in the Supertournament was favorable and look how that turned out. Nonetheless this is still a *cough* lucky first round draw for Jinro. Dislike FD vs Maru - Maru isn't that tough of an opponent, but FD had only ZvT to practice for in his U&D group and flopped hard. Sase vs Sniper - Don't really know much about either player but according to TLPD PvZ is Sase's worst matchup Tassadar vs Fenix - Fenix against last season's code A runner up? Uh oh. Granted PvT is Tassadar's worst matchup but iirc his losses in the U&D groups were to the 1-1-1 attack. For some reason I feel like Fenix isn't going to do it and try to play a macro game instead. Boxer vs Leenock - Wow, just...wtf. Yugioh vs Thorzain - Yugioh is nothing special but personally I feel like TvZ is Tzain's worst matchup. Would be more comfortable if he got a TvP or TvT. MKP vs Hack - The Kong of the GSL vs the kong of the TL Opens. Funny storyline but sad that one of these guys is going to fall down to code B. | ||

Thorzain feeds of peoples underation, and it only makes him stronger! :D Joking aside, im so stoked for this Code A, so stacked, looks really fun :D im expecting some unspets aswell. I still remember how he ripped Fruitdealer apart in the first round of the TSL, that wasn't even close and I've seen him play a few TvZ's like since then, but Zergs have changed and he doesn't seem so confident against them any more. Still if he returns to that form he can win, but arriving the day before isn't good I think a few days on the Korean server just to adjust a bit more to the play-style would have done wonders. YuGiOh wasn't the worst player to draw first round, and its pretty much TvT to the final if he can win (probably TvTs against MKP, Jjajki, Boxer and Yoda, but he can worry about that hurdle when he reaches it). | ||

Groups of 4 with the first 2 going through, the 3rd staying and the 4th going to code B? Wouldn't it prevent big matches on RO32 and possibly a really good contender dropping to code B? | ||

Though if they want to have any chances to advance into the tournament, they should be able to get through these players. | ||

Naniwa shouldn't have problems if he doesn't get overwhelmed by nerve-issues. He beat IdrA at MLG and has always had a pretty great PvZ. On the other hand, I think Sase is dead...Sniper is a really good player. | ||

On the other hand, DRG's chances of getting to the up/down are looking pretty good... | ||

But in reality, he's had plenty of chances to get to Code S and has failed every time. I can understand losing to MarineKing and Nestea. But if you're really a Code S level player, you shouldn't be losing to LiveForever in the up and downs or CreatorPrime in the first round of Code A. Or even Inca, a player who is known for his terrible PvZ, in the up and downs. I know Leenock is a fan favorite, but he doesn't play at a consistent Code S level yet, and until he does, he doesn't deserve to be Code S. | ||
