I don't see the Kespa players being competitive as a whole for another 6+ months at least.


MKP doesn't look that good lately too.


Neither does DRG. MC is probably the best player in the tournament, but with Bo1 groupstages, it's difficult to say what will happen. Especially in PvPs.

I don't see the need for it. A couple of Kespa players made it through the WCS qualifiers and those were harder than the Code A qualifiers. While the Code A qualies are still brutal it's not quite the same degree as they used to be when half the best players were still outside the GSL, and you see plenty of people make it in off an easy draw the last few seasons.



Exactly, the Code B qualifiers are nothing new to them either because of their experiance of the OSL prelims, the only thing that should be holding the majority of them back is their skill level and it wont be long before they can beat Code A players.

Anyone wondering how long it will take for kespa players to be competitive should watch Gumiho vs Soulkey that happened tonight in the WCS.

Soulkey really played like a boss vs one of the very best terrans going around at the moment, it was really impressive despite what the result says, really great games.

It depends how fast GOM wants Kespa players to get to Code S. Because if all Kespa players need to go through code B, only a small amount will make it (currently) and they can get taken out in first round and go back to Code B again. But who knows, the next GSL is still 1 more month away due to WCS so the Kespa players will get more time.

Kespa players need that round of proleague to finish already, coz even if they do not put too much effort in BW, they surely still get distracted there and one cannot fully commit to sc2 with BW hanging over his head

It will be a sad day when that round is over, but now that the OSL is done BW is only hindering the players from competing with everyone, they are still improving at a decent rate and that'll only quicken when they don't have thier attention divided between the two

I think the Kespa teams are already commiting mostly to sc2 and scooting by with preexisting bw knowledge for BW component.

yeah, up/downs are 27th-31st, so prelims likely to be sept 1-2 i guess, or maybe 8-9

MLG curse is very strong.... MKP managed to keep it at a respectable if inconsistent level after Winter, DRG might actually wish he never won Spring.
