Did MC get knocked down to Code A? He's stomped on Stephano countless times. MC is more than capable of beating Stephano. I'd say he's explicitly favored. That's not to say, of course, that Stephano isn't a great player and capable of beating these Protoss players. But there's almost always a chance (at the very high levels) of one player beating another. | ||

Maybe I am just wrong with my impression from his play though  Not that impressed with DieStar either usually, I expect both to fail to advance | ||

That surely means he's got a decent chance against any Korean toss he plays against. Yeah, especially when that legendary streak includes such tremendous wins over Starcraft titans like Monchi, Rotterdam and HEADHUNTER. | ||

He still made it to Ro16 and could technically get back for the next season just by winning his 1 game in code A? Thats already better than players like MC who totally dropped out, DRG who dropped out totally, MMA who dropped out totally and no one would argue they aren't top tier players. I meant before. Obviously they are in code S now. | ||

They were not top-tier players at that point in time. | ||

Just because you don't make the ro8 in Code S for the first time in 4 Code S seasons doesn't mean you're inconsistent. He had 6000 more GSL points in 2011 than Nestea which means even if MVP sat out a GSL and Nestea came in 1st, MVP would still be ranked higher | ||

I'm just curious as to who would advance. 2-0 cloud = cloud advances. 2-1 cloud of 2-1 moon = bratok advances. I'm expecting cloud 2-0 but never mind. as soon as I post this someone posts it's 1-1. grats bratok | ||
