It's like saying Yoda threw his game and gifted Flash a mercy win because he already earned Code S 100%. The system is 100% fair. | ||

Everytime I see this format I shake my head. Players who have no incentive to win vs'ing their friends/old teammates. Also just schedule a day for bo1 round robin tiebreakers after the groups are done...

Scarecrow complained in so many posts that he probably didn't notice it was the same person, just someone with KT in his sign. | ||

I just find it silly that Flash goes 3-2 and doesn't even get third in the group, bo1 is shit but they should have at least done tiebreakers between the 3-2 players. head to head is stupid. and this is from coming from someone who doesn't care at all that flash didn't advance, I'm glad to see him knocked down a peg after that all kill and the ridiculous fanboyism that followed it. | ||

I like the addition of the wildcard, gives another chance to those who may have been a tad unlucky in the first round. | ||

They show great games as their team's aces but this is on games that are less demanding. Soulkey in particular was looking great and right now, that the dust of the kespa entrance has settled and we have a better look at the players, looks extremely average. I'd say right now only kespa players in Code S level are probably Rain, Bogus, and Flash if and only he can find more consistency, GSL is all about consistency. Well no..because Baby/Soulkey/Roro/Bogus are already in Code S, Rain is as everyone knows is a beast and 4 of them already made a name for themselves in the GSL. Fantasy/sHy is still in the Up/Downs so we'll have to see about that. herO...well...hes starting to look a bit overrated so you might have an argument there. As I said..you cant compare a Tournament with a League..that's asinine... Either you compare GSTL with SPL or you compare let's say GSL with OSL. | ||

TvT looks like his weakest matchup, so it becomes how far he go into the Code S to how many TvT he most play there. OR, he had just not pratice this Matchup, because the leak of Terrans in this group. SK_MC took a great win for today. I remember that got in the HSC VI not in the Playoffs! This and the fact, that it was so close for him to drop into Code A, it looks like MC Great Times are over yet. He his still a pretty good Protoss, but not more the Boss Toss himself. EG_JD_RC Wildcard spot was for me the biggest suprise. Sure he is the Tyrann, but hey, in sc2, he looks in many game not at a Code S or even Code A Level. The Wildcard group will show if close the gap to Flash, which he does close a big more than a little bit by defending God today. But there is still a Gap, but with a Code S spot, he will going to show all haters that he is even in sc2 the Tyrann. THe Question for Flash is, it is a good day for him, or one of this you most forgot. The all kill over EGTL was pretty impressed and he was hyped by many of us into to Code S. All Seems great at start of the Up and Down Matches for him. But the loss to Jeadong and MC was unexpect. It looks like he cut to much corner to have later a bigger advantage. but it didn´t pay off. Worse, he got punish for that and loss so 2 Games, who he had should win with any bigger issues. Vampir plays like expect, in solid, but sometimes a bit sloppy, style. He wasn´t good enough for this group, but he is a good low-mid tier Code S Toss or a high Code A. And at the end, there is a totally crashed guys names YongHwa. He managed to win not a single game, as the biggest favourit in this group. It looks like a had pretty bad stage fright, which make him to a nervous wreck. Or he had just one of this days, that we all know... Now he must rebuild in the Code A his name. The only thing that he can help is to looking forward. At the end, I will say it was a great group to watch and some games are more entertainment that even Finals of the Code S. And Im sorry for my bad english, it´s a foreign language, which i try to improved with post like that. Small corrections. It was 4 - 1 not 5 - 1. Jaedong showed today great, exciting games and deserved at least wildcard. | ||

Tis a bit silly agreed, but thats half the point. You have a regular best of three progression in Code A, + the mad scramble for the finals spots in the up/down, and the soon to be even more mad scramble of wildcard games. | ||

I agree, the current format gives great drama, gives an underdog a chance and stops complacency, last this i would want is a NASL clone where half the games played are worthless because the players dont give a stuff once they know its an uphill struggle to quailify | ||

I still feel SK is pretty average right now, I'd really expect him to drop off from GSL entirely pretty soon, he seems on a downward progression. Baby has better chances, he seems like a good player, though imo a tiny little bit overrated. | ||
