ahh the old days <3 That's not possible if there are 2 Code S spots from MLG & Code A winner. There has to be an outflow of Code S 4th placings, and group stages are the fastest way to do that.
Wasn't much the number side i was basing my old idea on, was the plain reason, best of 3 you have more chance to win than BO1 vs 5 different players (if you have the skill level required)
Like in the old schedule there was hardly any Code A players beating the code S ones, who were good. I.E HuK was in up/down once or twice and always got back in due to beating the Code A player in a BO3 because he is better than Code A, but if he was to go down to UP/Down matches in this schedule they have at the moment i wouldn't feel so good for him just because anyone can all-in you randomly and take a game off you.

Huk hates the new Code S format, according to his twitter. And apparently he won't be at the selections because he wasn't given enough notice.

That's one of the problems with the current format, too much bo1 stages which leads to too much randomness, and I hope that it will be on of the key points of the new format, less bo1 stages.

rofl it's like they hired some kind of modern artist, gave him some meth and used his drawings as a diagram to base their format on x)

OMG finally some one else gets it, i F'n love you <3
Bo1 in Code S group stages is biggest OMGLOLOLOLOL i have ever seen in any tournament T.T
If anything Code A first few rounds should be BO1 groups and Code S should just be a 32 man straight knock out tournament every season none of this BO1 group crap.
Also, the new format seems very different, looks like you go to Code A after you lose in Code S ? xD

holy crap, who can understand this ? to many arrows

thats like really good, Code S guys immediately drop down to code A in the middle of the GSL,and its not just one guy its both guys who failed tp get to the Ro16 of Code S.
|
Wait so Code S players can go directly to Code A?
|
What...I think I need a few days to digest this
|
on the paper i love this new format
|
So 2 Foreigners are seeded into the Up&Downs?
|
The new format has gotten me so hard.
Only the truly strong will remain in code s, huk has reason to hate the new format, because i doubt he'll get through it!
