Khaldor wanted to cast and said that he wasn't allowed to because the situation was tense between ESF and KeSPA after the GSL-OSL crisis. When it was ESF only, he could cast, really need a map to figure where the veto comes from?

Food for thought. Ten Kespa players qualified, ten "GSL" players qualified, and one teamless. Came out really even. Kespa players caught up really fast.

Gotta laugh at the Reddit suggesting Flash is a Code S material because he beat Horror. I mean like I could stand a chance against Horror ffs.


i'd rather laugh at your own ignorance and cockiness.

Despite his cockiness Horror is one of the weaker players on LG-IM, and a win against him really doesn't prove much.


How about the win against MC?

Says much more than the win against Horror even though it was only a best of 1.


This criticism is hilarious coming from you.

Food for thought. The 'top' 45 GSL players are already in Code A/S, the 'top' 6 Kespa players are already in Code A/S. The rest came out to 50/50. I am not saying Kespa isn't catching up (they are and they should be). But if you are trying to argue they (as a whole) are on even ground now, the prelims definitely did not show that.

Yeah, that's good and all, but you should just watch Flash, Fantasy, By.Sun, and other Kespa players. They are clearly on even ground now

only a select few (<10 or so) are right now, though. the rest may well catch up in the later code A stages though

That is why I said "as a whole"... That is like saying foreigners have caught up to Koreans because Stephano/Naniwa/Nerchio can play Koreans on even ground.

Bw proleague is coming to the end, only few teams wasting their time playing bw so players will start improving faster because they will have more sc2 matches in proleague. I wonder when top koreans start playing hots beta.

To be fair to Kespa, GOM did not allow broadcast/stream of the prelims for a long time as well (pressure on players, logistics, etc).

I think a few have been trying it out (Taeja was streaming it I think) but I don't think they will get into it seriously until the big tournaments switch. And from the HoTS tournaments now, it seems the maps are a bigger factor compare to the units. Of course, it does take long for units to be incorporated into competitive builds.

That means they caught up.

Only a select few (<10 or so) ESF players are as good as the top ESF players. Only a select few (<10 or so) kespa players are as good as the top kespa players.

The top Kespa players are almost as good as the top ESF players and then both groups fall off below.

Well, if the ESF players like Liquid'Hero (although Liquid might not really count, you get the idea) say the Kespa guys are on even footing now, I'm going to believe them. But that's just me.
