Agreed. He didn't look nearly as confident in his play as usual. Losing to the nydus was what must have really upset him though, that was a dumb one to lose.

Just realised that next code S is 18t/5p/7z so far with two spots left. Guessing those two goes to two of Marineking/Taeja/Tester. I don't see JYP/Violet advancing over these guys.

This means it's going to be 19t/6p/7z next season. (Or 20t/5p/7z). This isn't a balance whine, but this is getting kind of excruciatingly boring. I mean, I enjoy TvT, and we've seen some amazing TvT's between for instance Polt and Top and such, but there are limits to how many 32 minute battlecruiser games you can endure before you're about ready to jump out the window.

Man, what a group! Pity I missed it. I'm eternally grateful to GOM for making Losira vs MC the first match. Their first game was amazing. Off to ladder to try Losira's build :D

Really? It was a pretty boring game actually, MC just did bad Stargate harass into a weird timing push with a weird army composition that didn't work very well.

PvP: games too short!
TvT:games too long!
ZvZ:games too close to call!

they should make a league called the GSTL!

Global starcraft terran league..

its getting more stacked each season

at least code A should be interesting! lots of P and Z qualified (5 of each i think) so that should be wicked to watch

Just checking results in the evening just isnt the same :/


Surprised check did that well, sad for MC, but well, it'll all balance out in the end *hope*

At least i can watch code s finals on saturday (even through they probably will be terribadly onesided to continue gsl tradition :D)

For the first time from March i don't going to buy the ticket for the next season of GSL... so many balance problem in that game, so many TvT.

Ok many TvT reduce the balance whine... but a tournament with 20T and with the few P crushed by 1-1-1 in they're group is going to be really boring.

I hope that the expansion will come fast because watch this game is become more and more boring... (ok not like LoL) and i think that it don't deserve my money anymore... until a patch or the expansion will change something...

I'd bet on JYP over Tester, but yeah, it's very likely that it'll be MKP and Taeja.

Man todays games just prove that the UP/Down matchs are sooooooo tough,
and see players getting Code S pass through the MLG.
It's just unfair to the other players like check who played really well and still didn't get in but DRG not even manging to get to the up/down matches getting into code S just because the other koreans in the MLG were code S already.
NOT fair.

Where is the protoss? WHere is the horn that was blowing. They have passed like rain on the mountain

Well, on the bright side, most of the code S titans took a run through code A (losira started there, nestea, MKP)
Remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

I have never whined about a PvP or a ZvZ. And I generally don't whine over TvT either, I think they can be very entertaining, but when there is nothing else than TvT, then repetitiveness might get the best of me. Especially when the entertaining TvT is twice as long as the equally entertaining TvZvP. (And BFH can make them very coinflippy; "Didn't pay attention to your mineral line for 5 seconds, booyah 15 dead SCV's")

as for now, i will just change code S for code A televised time. I have no any intention to watch endless, stupid, borring, annoying TvT matches. MC in code A, ok, i am in code A too.

just hope that Blizzard makes something before MC and the rest of the protosses go to code B.



Why should blizzard "make something"?
MC didn't play as well as his opponents, if you watched the games. End of story.
MVP spent a season in code A as well, were you complaining about how "weak" Terran was then?

MC's been slumping for forever.

Check's been slowly getting out of his slump ever since he fell to Code A. Hope we see him in Code S again soon.

Heh. In the beginning many Code S players were bad and didn't deserve their spots. But nowadays there are tons of good pro's and only 32 spots so not everyone can make it. It's just something you have to live with.

When you're saying "the up/down system is not fair" you're basically just saying "wahhhh my favorite player didn't play well enough to get to Code S."

Code A is fun too. You get to see newcomers and fallen veterans. If MC wants to win another Code S championship, he needs to leave his arrogance in Code A.
