There are more terrans than toss left in code A. because few of the toss from code s dropped down  but seriously so many more terrans dropped from code s -> code a (12t, 5p dropped), hence the disparity | ||

Strictly speaking, it will be a case of serious imbalance if former code s zergs and terrans still continue to lose to inferior tosses in code A. Honestly, i'm beginning to like the "double elimination" format of code A & S. No more TvZ in code S? We will have more of them in code A :D | ||

None of the Protoss players who won this season in Code A were inferior to their zerg or terran counterparts. In fact in Code A only Creator and Killer have won a PvT and they were against relatively unknown Code B terrans. Half the reason we aren't getting TvZ in Code S is because a majority of zerg players in the GSL just aren't that good or got unlucky draws (Seal got JYP of all people!). I don't know if Zerg have ever had a majority number in GSL, for some reason there are just very few top level Korean zergs. That said, the top level Korean zergs are honestly some of the scariest players around. | ||

I'm talking about the tosses that lost. 90% of them who lost clearly deserve the loss when you consider the skill level of the opponents they are going up against. Well, it's not like i'm whining about zerg under-representation anyway. The only good zergs are probably nestea, drg, seal, leenock's & july's (just ZvT). Still waiting for symbol and life to climb up the ranks :D I could care less about the other zergs. Zerg is a race after-all where the weak get eaten and only the strongest survive. | ||

That said, the top level Korean zergs are honestly some of the scariest players around. Yea, initially I'd of blamed balance back in the early days of the gsl, and I think to a good extent I'd of been right. However, over time it also feels like Zerg probably has the weakest players overall, and perhaps always did in Korea (it's the opposite for the foreigners). imo, it's always felt like you either have the guys who look like championship material, or the ones who will probably hang between high code A and ro16 code S for months, and occassionally spring into the ro8. Terrans? Not uncommon at all to have a new face in code S or even the ro8 each season. Pretty sure the top 10 of this race wouldn't be hard at all to make for most people. Greatest number of diversity in their champions Protoss? Had a nasty period for a couple of months but they enjoy a fair amount of diversity. The #1 toss has been up for grabs for awhile imo, but I feel like the general top-tiers have distinguished themselves enough without needing too much debate. Then there's zerg, who I think have always had the three highly distinguished top 3, and then after that it gets harder to name very many standouts. It's gone something like -> Fruit, Zenio, Nestea -> Nestea, July, Losira -> DRG, Leenock, Nestea. Curious and July still have their moments of greatness too, but everyone else for the most part looks decent/has potential to "meh". Symbol is getting up there though and Losira is coming back I think :D | ||
