Code S has no more terran than last season, until now there is +2 zerg and -2 protoss, terran stays at +0. (that's code S<->code A movements)
Code A has +1 protoss, -7 terran, +3 zergs (3 players are missing, 2 from tomorrow + dongraegu, that's why numbers don't add up yet)

So so far GSL has a net loss of 7 terrans.

MC going down isn't THAT surprising.

Just like Wolf and Doa said - he's a very inconsistent player as of recent. He'll stomp two people into the ground, and then proceed to lose the next 3 games looking absolutely awful.

This was just one of those worse days for him.

Haha I'm not surprised anymore, MC wasnt playing very well lately anyway I didn't see him as the Protoss Hero.

Tomorow 2 Terrans have a pretty good chance of advancing making it a 20T 5P 7Z Code S. Yeah !

Really I don't even care if it is balance or just more skilled players play Terran. This is just bad for SC2 e-sport and what makes me really sad about it is that it won't change fast. We are going to get at least like 3 or 4 seasons of tons of Terrans (since 2/3 of the code S are Terran and it is kinda hard to drop down), until balance changes or protoss/zerg heroes come out of code B and A. Go HerO be our hero.

This is so sad... GSL was exciting, Tastosis never failed to disapoint and I was happy to watch Code S for like the 6 first times. But this Season was SO bad. Yeah MVP shines and rolls through everyone, great for him he is a talented player. But there was a ton of disapointing series and upsets.

Guess no ticket for next season also, didn't bought this one either. And this makes me even sader... this is not GOM's fault for this situation, nor the players, and they are going to pay the price of it.
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

I'm not gonna say any race is better then the others.. but i'll point out one thing. Protoss was dominate when MC was using sentries/stalkers/4gates... Blizzard nerfed the hell out of protoss to the point where Protoss have no chance of winning code S. THERE IS NO PROTOSS that can even make it to the finals now. I remember when Terran's/Zerg's were crying because protoss (I mean MC.. he is protoss) was winning everything. Now Terran's and zergs are bashing Protoss players for doing the same thing they were not too long ago.

There is no chance of any Protoss winning for the near future. Unless blizzard nerf's terran/zerg.. the game will be Terran Vs Zerg in Code S. Huk look liked a bronze newb Vs MVP. Huk is one of the best Protoss in the game and MVP was playing around with him. I use Terran and i'm sick of TvT's.

Tier 1.. Marines>> zealots
Tier 2 Maurauders >> Stalkers..
Tier 3 .. siege tanks/thors >> collos/immortals.

Air.. Banchees/battlercruisers/vikings >> phoenix/voids/carriers

it's ridiculous

Great for Jjakji TvZ are just so damn entertaining. 22 Terrans 10 Zerg would be the best CodeS ever. Alot of TvZ, some TvT and little bit of ZvZ.

Something is wrong with your math. This season there were 17 Terrans, next one is already up at 18, with possibly 2 more to come tomorrow, for a total of 20 of 32 spots.

You forgot ghosts >> Hts. I would argue about siege tanks and thors being better then colossus immortals though. Thors specifically.

Thank god! Though the main problem as a viewer is that 53% of Code S is Terrans. Not to mention - tomorrow's up and down group (arguably) favors MKP and Taeja as the two advancing players. Violet isn't particularly good and Tester is a shadow. JYP could be dangerous, but TvP in Korea is easily favoring Terran players. If things play out as the probabilities predict, 1 Zerg and 1 Protoss will fall from Code S and 2 more Terrans will replace them.

Results exactly as expected. Except for Check's good run, that is; totally expected MC to get owned by LosirA and Jjakji.

On a related note, I sometimes wonder how many Terrans we need to have in Code S to convince the majority that there's really some problem with the game. Personally, I think I'm only going to watch Code A next season. I want to support GoM with my viewership, and the upcoming Code A looks very promising, but Code S honestly feels like a total joke to me at this point. Also, there's a limit to how much TvT you can watch in a row, as fun as it can be sometimes.

Terran is the most complete race in SC2 at the moment. Even the campaign is Terran dominated! Hope Blizzard realizes this.

I feel like MC himself paved the way for his fall into code A. This all goes back to his choice of putting the best Terran in the world, MvP, into his GSL group. When 2 losses in code S group stage cause you to play in the up/down matches. The choice of playing a one off match with MvP was an extremely reckless decision that I feel has significantly contributed to MC dropping out of code S.

As we saw today, when placed in the up/down matches all it takes is one bad day and you can easily drop to code A. I just wish MC had recognised the volatility of GSL and used his choice of selection in group stages more wisely, like NesTea did.

They all keep getting promoted to Code S. Don't worry, a bunch will one-base their way through the code B for you next season.

Feel bad for Check. In the interest of racial balance, let's dump Jjakji and allow Check to move up.
