In his encounters with Koreans he beat Nada (S), Hero (B) in a close 4-3, while losing to CoCa, Bomber and Trickster.
losing in ro16 code a and going 2-3 vs Koreans in a foreign tournament ... >.<

I would say winning MLG is pretty comparable, but being defaulted a spot because everyone above you is already in code S is much much easier than going through code A and the up/downs.
When I say Korean, I mean plays on the Korean server. I don't care what you think it is, that's what I mean when I say it.

Yes which is why i hate how the system works , a Up/Down Spot in my mind would be fairer. I mean JYP did beat DRG and because his team doesn't have that much money / GSL didn't send him he still has to go through the Up/Downs and will probably not adanvance to Code S .


well it's not always fair . I want JYP in code s too.

Everyone worries about MC against terran, and well they might. Jjakji has an absolutely godly TvP. If it wasn't a Bo1 i'd give him little chance against Jjajki, but I think he's struggling just as much against zerg. Hasn't played as many zergs since terrans usually eliminate him, but he has looked REALLY mortal against them lately in games i've watched.

PvZ in korean metagame seems real hard at this point, so i sadly think he will fall down to code a as well. Hopefully he will prove me wrong tho

Yeah long gone are the days when at least a protoss player could trust MC to win even when every other toss was flailing. Now no protosses have that feel to them.

It would be pretty cool if they had a best of 3 match where the code a runner up would face the mlg seed. Winner goes straight to code s. Loser goes to up and downs. Would be much much fairer this way.

Me is happy.Very happy!


Its kinda hard being Leenock fan tbh. And i am - from start, from his first GSL. He is just, we know he can acomplish really much, he just needs a bit more consistancy. So every time he is going to play, is hard for his fans, because we dont know will he have bad day.
But when he doesnt....this happens


GL again in Code S my dear Leenock, i wish you not that much hard group, and huge amount of focus. Make your fans even more happy and proud!

So happy for Leenock, and also supernova both played really great games today ^-^. Byun is so going to get his puppy privileges revoked which is sad since he didn't play poorly he just made one or two suboptimal decisions that cost him the games, I will always love him and supernova for the epic air battles and hunter seeker runaways though.

Is it wrong that I'd like to see Nani or Sase vs Alicia in round of 32 for code A ? I want epic pvp battles ^-^

Naturally, Leenock qualifies for Code S just as he goes back to school ¬_¬. Poor guy doesn't get a break.

I want it too because it'll probably mean Alicia falling out of Code A :o .
