Maybe we should start logging Khaldor claims and check his actual hit rate.

He is correct that if Trap loses he is out, but his reasoning sounds faulty.

Anyway, seeing as KeSPA players have entered the system in the proper way, it seems unlikely that GomTV will be giving away two KeSPA seeds in season five as well.

At the same time, they've almost completely run out of useful foreigners to give Code S seeds to. Foreign seeds don't always HAVE to be coming off a good tournament performance, but right now their options are pretty much Stephano (if he accepts and stays in KR), SaSe, or re-invite a prior seed like NaNiwa. Besides Stephano, none of those options are really first or even second choice for GomTV.

That's why Nestea fits in so nicely. Nestea is an icon of Code S, a player who has a fucking award named after him, and is a huge fan favorite. For the three time champ who has been in more Code S seasons than anyone, there would be little to no backlash about seeding him right back into Code S. 90% of viewers would agree that he deserves more it compared to a non-stephano foreigner or yet another KeSPA pick.



he's just gonna fall out again right away ;o

if you MUST seed a non kespa korean put YONGHWA in there


the only thing against nestea+steph i think is the lack of protoss players in code s right now. it would bring out so much protoss tears if they seed another 2 zergs. yonghwa is a cool choice btw

i really wanna know who the seeds for next season are. Stephano seems somewhat less likely now looking at his tournament schedule for November, but who knows. he is a little cray. maybe someone from Kespa, maybe someone that is doing well in GSTL and is not in Code A/S, maybe some foreigner that probably won't stand much of a chance, i dunno. not Nestea though, that would be a bit ridiculous.

Yeah, all killing two teams in a row is a monumental achievement, and considering the hardship he's had with the code A prelims for so damn long i'd say he deserves some love.

He's wrong about this stuff about 50% of the time though.. for example he just claimed Trap was out if he loses his next game which I do not think is the case. It's understandable though, kind of hard to do this calculation on live TV!

0-3 is 100% out, best you could do is 2-3 which is never gonna be enough to advance in a top2 advance format lol

also give khaldor more credit, I've never actually seen his calculations be wrong (sometimes hard to follow, never wrong)

No, it's not.

2-3, 2-3, 2-3, 2-3, 2-3 and 5-0. Tie for second.

Of course, this can't happen in THIS case, but still.


Yes, it's impossible because GOM will go to the head-to-heads in which case Trap will be out.

I just don't think it would happen, however much sense it makes. Still think its sad that Puma never got a seed when he was on form, obviously now he doesn't deserve it based on current skill, but last year he really should have been at least in Code A.


PuMa kinda missed his timing because there were better options at the time. A player who was playing as well as PuMa in foreign tournaments yet not in Code A at current time would definitely be a great seed candidate RIGHT NOW, but it just wasn't the case in the past. Nestea's not a great option, but given the current situation, he's one of the better ones.


I would like to see him in Code S as well but don't you think he will go out 0-4 in the Ro32 based on his form? That's may be the reason why they won't invite him. There are already too many seeded players who failed.

No, no. If one player goes 5-0, and everyone else 2-3, there will be a clean tie for second, because all those players will be 2-2 against each other (just subtract the loss against the winner).

Sometimes Khaldor is a little fast with his math conclusions:

A: 5-0
B: 2-3
C: 2-3
D: 2-3
E: 2-3
F: 2-3

Voilà. Players B to F split a 2-2 group between each other and everyone loses to A, and then there is a massive tie-breaker between the rest. Though the likelihood is unbelievably low. But still possible to advance with 3 losses. And now back to the games

Hmm, yeah, I would say that he most definitely deserves it, I completely forgot about WCG.

in a 5 way tie you go 2-2 with every other person in the tie, with the 3rd loss being against the 5-0er. so there is no head-to-head difference
