No foreigner has ever made it through the Code A qualifiers and neither did he. Didn't Huk back in the day? Or Jinro? Nope. As I said, no foreigner has ever done so.
I think MacSed did but I've been wrong too often recently

Yeah Idra and Jinro were the only 2 players I think to legitimately earn code S though from open season and stuff from qualifying for the open to getting into code S.

He lost in the finals and got a Code A seed once

I think that has to be a candidate for one of the worst cutscenes in SC2.

Did DRG look good, or was Hack just bad?

Polt has at least 2 different Hellion-Marauder all-ins. Sometimes he pulls SCVs, sometimes he doesn't It depends on the rush distance on maps and opennings I think.
It think it's more what he scouts the opponent doing, as a hellion-marauder gives you 2 factories and 3 barracks, if sufficient damage is done you can transition into either a continued 2base all in, add 2 more barracks and switch buildings around so you have 2fact siege tank, 4 rax with reactor and 1 tech lab. Or he can throw down a 3rd CC and defend it easily with 2fact siege tank production.

It was the season where it felt like the most rigged bracket ever to make him get through finally. He beat Cella in the finals. Didn't he get Code S via MLG?
He was already in Code A when he got seeded into Code S. Then he dropped back to Code A, and re-qualified for Code S.

You earn a seed by winning stuff other than the qualifiers.
Id like to add that korean's have also already profited from this seed system, be it MC or Polt. It's not foreigner only, it's a seedd for accomplishments in Foreign tourney's.
A lot of party poopers in this thread, Stephano finally in code S, we have had 2 foreigners in this GSL. Why so bitter and bitchy guys?

Because the polls go in the OP under " recommend games " and people who watch VODs can check the ratings to see what is worth watching, when you open a series it shows all three games at once so you don't have to open a million spoiler tabs. If you only show game 1 and 2 there they know the series was 2-0 so whoever won game 1 is the winner.
