Due to the disbandment of LP, the final spot for WTL's upcoming winter season will be determined by a qualifier.

6 sign-up teams that did not previously compete in the league:

(Wiki)Juggernauts

(Wiki)PREP eSPORTS

(Wiki)Berserker eSports

(Wiki)Genesis Gaming

(Wiki)License to Kill

(Wiki)Dominaticus Esports

Plus two top finishers from Chinese (Wiki)Starcraft II Amateur Team League:

(Wiki)SLT.阏逢

Top8

Eight teams will compete in a single elimination bracket, with the classic WTL playoffs all kill format, winner advances to the main event.

Quarterfinals:

PREP vs Top8
Juggernauts vs SLT
Genesis Gaming vs Berserker eSports
Dominaticus Esports vs License to Kill

The qualifier will be broadcast on September 18-20, 13:00 GMT (+00:00).

Oh that should be a really cool qualifiers!

My money is on PREP, seems like they have the better lineup altought Berserker also has a nice team and in all kill everything can happen.

If the other teams aren't to worried about it, maybe we could have the bottom team of each season getting relegated to the qualifiers the next season?

PREP can stand a chance over all the remaining group in the qualifiers due to experienced players like Byul and Has.

I thought someone was saying that Reynor had intended to join WTL, but it seemed like his group did not sign up for the event yet?

Imagine the alliance of Qlash and Ence for WTL like the old days with EGTL in Proleague !!

Please Kaizi signs PartinG he is the best teamless player now

Even the combo of the two teams would have to recruit a third player (and preferably a fourth) because I don't think Ret is active anymore (even if still technically on the QLASH roster according to Liquipedia).

As for Kaizi they're trying to recruit another player (like the topic about MaxPax several weeks ago), but who the new player will be in the end, up in the air
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

Parting is most likely way to expensive to play in the Team league.
Kaizi would need to pay not only for his skill but also for his big streaming audience. So he would be even more expensive than other Code S Playoff players.
Add to that that he can be quite unreliable. He played drunk in previos seasons and is also rather inconsistent, even when he cares for the tournament

According to liquipedia Kaizi signs SouL (Spirit).
Nice addition to their roster but MaxPax seems to be more efficient in teamleague.
Finaly no Parting as expect ;(

Now are the negotiations still ongoing or Spirit's transfer is confirmed 100 percent is the question mark (trying to watch the topic but apparently can't)

EDIT : Spirit has removed his current team tag [BRSKR] from his SC2 playing account so that adds into confirming it

Is there any precedent participating team can borrow a player from other group out of the event?

For example, KZ borrows Reynors from Qlash for about two month only in order to just playing in WTL.

Coalitions are not allowed in GTC/WTL. Teams are only allowed to use players they actively contract.

PREP should have this, they have the strongest roster.

Has and Bly on the same team is very cool. Let the sheenanigans ensue! If PREP make it to WTL, I will make sure to watch every match of theirs.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.

Any chances of getting at least a link to a chinese stream?

I think I've found something!
https://www.twitch.tv/prep_rocto

I have no idea who's playing though

Edit: If my detective skills are right, Puzzle is currently playing Winter (code bar) so it's PREP vs Top8. Puzzle 1-0 vs winter, dunno what the overall score is.

Another Chinese stream found in A Chinese preview post. Currently on this stream is Juggernauts.Gogojoey vs SLT.HunteR

It seems multiple Ro8 matches are being played at the same time.

Great thanks!

1-1 Puzzle vs Winter, curently Has vs OGNotail, before the Puzzle match it looked to be a pvp betwen different name.

So I think the score is probably 2-2 between PREP and Top8.
