I think it will be nice for people who aren't able to watch GSL when it's live to be able to watch a bunch of good players play when they can watch. Code S will remain mostly unaffected, and there are plenty of players in Code A who are Code S-quality in my eyes, anyway. They're not right now perhaps, but a majority of them have been regulars of Code S. Maybe things will be fine with the addition of Kespa players, but I'm still far from convinced about Kespa's overall strength. So in a worse case scenario Code S won't feel like the actual WCS that it is. | ||

If anything it gives us more opportunities to see good players that we otherwise wouldn't be able to see as much. Korea is oversaturated as it is with good players. Maybe you could argue it hurts the depth in Korea but it's not really that huge of a list of players, especially when you consider the large amount of kespa players that we have rarely seen competitively. | ||

A lot of these players have Code A or S spots for the upcoming season. Heck, MC already played, for crying out loud. | ||

So in a worse case scenario Code S won't feel like the actual WCS that it is. As evidenced by the way Code B/A looked last season, KeSPA and eSF pros have been eliminating themselves and each other and there simply wasn't "enough room" in Code S - last season, I personally would argue that there were at least 8 more players who could have competed on even footing in Code S that got eliminated in Code A, and a few more stuck in Code B. With the addition of KeSPA players on top of all the eSF pros who fight tooth and nail for a Code S spot, the removal of (I count) 4 Code S players and several Code A/S has-beens will not hurt the depth of GSL too much. | ||
