Anyone got time to translate 10 interviews? Specifically Dark/Miya/Brain/San so we can know for sure about Dark/SKT and the other three team status' ATM... ~_~ I sent a PM to Seeker asking about the interviews, hopefully he has time to at least do the ex-Slayers ones.
Thanx. <3

First, have a fuzzy kitten because you spelled Liquipedia right; Second, I don't think he is. Center does have a TLPD page which doesn't mention the by. name clan. He reached Code B finals a few time before but never made the cut. I wouldn't bet too much on him though. He will most likely drop back down in the first game.

According to TSL guys Center gets as nervous in the booth as HyuN in Code S... I swear that Rain-less group looked like Platinum league... So many mistakes from all three of them... Main point - Center will most likely loose... Unless he's lucky enough to get put up against Sparta or something... ~_~

Hah, technically I guess so. But since he just transferred over, in my mind, I would still count him as eSF for this qualifier. SlayerS was never under the ESF umbrella. I wouldn't count Darks victory in either of the two categories because 1. He was drafted after his accomplishment and 2. He never represented ESF unless he was on one of their team prior to joining SlayerS. Ithink you're getting too caught up into the semantics of being an esf player. Truly, an esf player is vaguely represented as:
A korean player on a korean team before kespa switched over. So yeah, dark is esf for the purpose of comparing esf to kespa

The meaning is found in comparing how fast the first group are catching up.
Even if Miya/Dark join T1, they're still 'esf' players by the above. I'm also tempted to put ForGG/Hyun/First on the Kespa side given how late they switched.
So esf 6-4 kespa. Which is STILL impressive by kespa. Not confirmed.

I was late to the thread last night... Around what time did the first several groups get released? I know the groups technically start in 3 hours 20 minutes, but when will we have brackets *edit - for today's groups 1-5/6, I'm guessing 6* available?

Free and Jaehoon almost got in :O It would be good if Calm, Stork or Stats got in too... Badluck Tassadar  My hopefuls for today are Hydra, Hyuk, Bisu, Best, JaeDong, Light and ZerO <3 MORE BISU!!!!

Man I hope proleague comes back so I can at least watch Bisu one of these days. 
Glad for Jangbi and Fantasy though. Hope for some good showings from them. On the ESF side I'm glad to see Jjakji get back in.

Bisu, why you keep breaking my heart... It's really fascination how someone can be so good at BW and so bad at SC2.

I will again be doing my profile stalking match updates throughout the night whenever an ESF player is involved.

San, Jangbi, Fantasy, and jjakji all qualified for Code A? Nice!
San - He's ManZenith and he's handsome. I always liked him after his epic games against NesTea (which he didn't win due to KA, it was because of a stalker timing attack early in the game that basically gave him the lead throughout the entire game). Also he was one of the first (maybe the first) Protoss players to do an Archon Toilet in the GSL (that was back then when the Mothership was considered a joke unit).
Oh yeah, he was mannered at the group stages when everyone picked him due to him being considered the weakest player.
Jangbi - It's always nice to see legends (or at least, players with lots of fangirls) from BW doing well in SC2. As seen with how much viewers Flash potentially attracted in MLG, Jangbi and other top players from BW can do the same.
Fantasy - Same as above.
I'm sad Bisu and Stork didn't make it though.
Hopefully Jaedong makes it (at least, I haven't seen his name in liquidpedia yet).

1. How did Avenge not make it. Seriously. A bracket with choya and jangbi (yes he's jangbi but his only achievement in sc2 is a slightly impressive mvp invitational run). COME ON AVENGE PLEASE MAKE IT IN 2013
2. GO PET AND NOBLESSE

Todays groups are going to be crazy compared to yesterday.
