I would like to thank Byun for his build, I just started playing again after quite a break and I have insane winrate with his 2rax to tank/medivac build. Even though it's only against 1200ish points protoss since my MMR dropped down it's amazing to win games despite not being able to play as good as before the break.

Nice to see SeeD qualify, new blood protoss in code S is always interesting.

Crap i forgot abou Code S. I was way too tired from Mlg the whole weekend.
Sad that hero didn't go through,I got most of the stuff right but i didn't have Seed going through.
I pledge myself to conquer all the foes who stand before the mighty gift bestowed in my unworthy hand

I think Hero probably managed a combination of those things for his semi final appearance but what sets apart the true elite (MKP, DRG, MC, MMA, Nestea, MVP) is that they keep making finals, winning tournaments and being a threat in Code S across months and months and even years, frankly it seems like there's 30-40+ players capable of making the round of 4 of Code S once if the stars align for them.


wouldn't say nestea or MMA are a threat anymore.


...

MMA won Iron Squid not too long ago got 4th at IPL4 and won the Stars War Qualifier over MKP.

Nestea got 3rd at IPL4 and Iron Squid and is the only player never to completely fall from code S.

What. the. fuck


Yeah, but they aren't a threat in Code S anymore in my opinion. Most of the Code S players just don't get the favorable seeding or ability to attend foreign tournaments consistently like these guys.


Well, of course MMA isn't a threat in Code S this season, he's in Code A! :p

Seriously though, I do think you discount MMA and Nestea too quickly. People discounted MVP several times, and now he's just won his 4th GSL. MC fell to Code B, and he's still winning tournaments left and right. It's important to look at the long run, rather than the flavor of the week.

I really dislike when people say this. It makes absolutely no sense. They don't see a player for like 1 or 2 months and they think they suck all of the sudden. It also makes it feel longer since there is a large tournament about every weekend now.

If anything, they will be a bigger threat because they havn't been doing all the same traveling and they probably have been practicing the whole time. I would never count out Nestea seeing how it seems ike he never leaves code S which is amazing.

MMA is in code A this season. So I think he will be a threat to the code A players. I highly doubt he will get bumped out to code B.

the scene moves really quickly, we crown a new #1 player each week, and yeah, dropping outof code s for a season is a relatively long time

Hero looked extremely nervous during his run. I think his unsuccessful run might be attributed to the collapse of oGs, before he had amazing partners in a nice team house and now he is stuck with Liquid foreigners? Hopefully I don't know what I'm talking about, but if Hero really has lost most of his practice partners and has failed to gain any better ones I don't see him stepping up in the future seasons.
