They qualified despite being not quite top-tier, but if they all belong in Code B, Afreeca might as well start Code S with the quarterfinals. The best players are rare for a reason; if they were more common then they wouldn't be the best anymore. That's literally the definition of the word.
You realize Bunny/Ryung are above aLive/Scarlett right now right?

I mean i can see Bunny but Ryung? He has barely above 50% winrate

I named five other players that are close to the level of aLive/Scarlett. They aren't the best of their races, but they still qualified. (Ofc they aren't all equal, but I would argue that they are all fairly close)
My point is, Code S has 32 players that are all more or less worthy of being there. Myungsik was probably the only person in this Ro32 that didn't belong.
I would tend to agree Bunny is better than aLive and Scarlett, but Ryung is definitely worse. He's literally only good (albeit very good) at TvT. But like I said, they are all fairly close.
I mean, by the Ro16, there's basically two tiers of players left. Champion contenders, like Inno/Dark/Maru/Stats/other big names, and then everyone else in another tier. Scarlett's not tier 1, but she can go head-to-head with the tier 2 qualified players.

I still can't get over this Widow Mine defense.

Damn sucks that she couldn't do it. Thanks for entertaining games nevertheless Sasha

No foreigner leaves here...aLive
Man...we haven't had a foreigner in the ro16 since the days of Naniwa back in 2012 
At least Scarlett put on a good showing and totally could've made it.

ByuN paved the way for old-guy Terrans everywhere. Jjakji and Gumiho could've been there too but they both crapped the bed :/

The drone was killed when she canceled the spore so not only did she lose the drone but also the minerals from the cancel that she wouldn't have had the mine just gone off on the lone drone. It was fancy, but didn't really accomplish much of anything.

It's a GumBa meme, don't question it. Just roll with the punches.

People who use the nickname instead of the real one 
|
Really, all gamer names are just nicknames. Is there any really good reason to even use gamer names? Why not just use real ones?
|
It sounds so much more hype.

Because you dont want, when you are a pure random, that everybody in the ladder know you.
Same for the forum, why are you using nickname ?

Because I'm just a shitposter on an internet forum. Different than being a professional at something.
