I actually have watched a ton of the guy and he's pretty damn good! When he wins, especially vs Zerg he looks frequently amazing, and when he loses its rare that he looks outright bad. Last game vs JYP WAS outright bad so for that he doesn't deserve Code S, but it doesn't mean the ability and skill isn't there. Too much emphasis is placed on results and not enough on a player's comparative strengths and weaknesses. To take one example, JYP would not have had a snowball's chance in hell of getting to Code S if he had to go through a Terran-heavy group. Just because you're struggling to get into Code S does not mean you're 'not Code S level'. Plenty of players have stuck around there who are worse than Hero, some this season are probably worse than Hero. I don't mind as long as Code S live reports next season won't be full of whines about Toss doing 2 base all-ins though  Lineup is looking pretty sick! | ||

Leenock for Parting could do what the only code S level protoss (Oz) couldn't (beating jacqueji), so I hope he'll do well and get 2 raxed by the most terran possible xD (yes I know I forgot MC again) (ahnd I know it's only one serie, and all and all) | ||

Ok...so the question is....do I pick similar players to you guys to reduce the curse, or different ones to spread it? Also, do to curses negate (Parting and Leenock will now tear everyone apart?) Or do they reinforce (Parting and Leenock are out of Code A as well as Code S?) For me... Brown Leenock GumiHo (controversial, I know. But with the racial equality coming in I think he'll be doing better and better, especially with the number of FXO guys in Code S he can practice with) | ||

He's always eliminated on stupid games/mistakes. HerO fighting! | ||

The equality is that those players in the up'n'down didn't throw away their games. Simple as that. | ||
