FruitDealer is still in but Rain dropped?

Thanks for the list 
Are these in order of points? Just wondering.
I hope Maka moves up!

Seriously though the only dependable pick right now is MVP. Lots could change by March.

honestly FD has been pretty unimpressive recently, and staying in code S has nothing to do with accumulated points so him winning GSL 1 no longer means anything. FD's fails, in GSL 2, 3 and January are perfect examples of how competitive the rate of improvement in sc2 is, even among top players.

well no one seems able to repeat, so Im picking choyafou because of his prediction for the jan finals.

no meaningful order. first 16 are players that made it out of there group. i put them in the order that there groups were in so nestea was first and jinro and idra were last. then the next 16 where the up down match people in order of groups once again.
it was just the easiest way for me to do it.

Oh man Leenock dropped...he was so great against Cliiide though. 
|
Its kind of hard to believe that Rain even managed to get to the finals if he only cheesed (which I doubt, but was heavily in his play anyways). Was his GSL3 bracket really -that- easy if he got dropped immediately to Code A that quickly?
|
Well at least we should have some more hilariously short games with SanZenith in them.

it's so strange there are as many Zergs as Protosses

Leenock dropped in the most upsetting fashion ever too TT

Worth noting that while this is GSL March, it does seem to begin halfway through Feb
|
Sad to see LeeNock drop down to Code A, the kid is really good despite still going to school everyday and also has provided some of the best games so far.
|
Maybe add players who moved up to Code S as well?

Because he was a total blow in GSL4. FruitDealer IMO hasn't evolved as much as he should.

Watching some of Julyzerg's games it looks like Code S will be pretty hard on him. But he is an amazing player and can always adapt and adjust to the trends. I would like to see some of his CodeS games in the future.

2 of the protoss are pretty bad. Wish HuK would replace them =S.

I dont know about fails, I mean in GSL 2 he lost against MKP, nothing to really call a failure since he later got to the finals. GSL 3 he got to RO8 and lost 3-2 against hongun, a very good toss. GSL 4 he lost against MVP and zenio in BO1s, a silly format if you ask me.
Sure he tends to go a little bit to much all in nowadays but failures is a bit exaggerated, he is still one of the best zergs out there if you ask me, if he just stopped being so scared of taking games to lategame, something it seems he is atm, Im sure we will see him in the finals again.
|
i still have faith in the fruitdealer even tho he had some disapointing performances in the past gsls
|
Alot of TvT in our futures.... with 15/32 players being T.. that means 45% of the games will be TvT (all other things being equal)
|
Look at all the oGs member in codeS.
|
Tbh I find makaprime getting demoted a bigger upset then rain being so. Maka just feels like a more solid less gimmicky terran and I truly find that he belongs in S-class.
Some personal predictions
I think Julyzerg will have a truly hard time in S-class, I personally am not nearly as impressed as tastosis seem to be by his play.
+ Show Spoiler +MKP will probably be forced to switch up his style now, atleast TvT since I guess everyone will try to copy MVPs style against him wich completly slaughtered him
Lyn will aswell have a pretty hard time and probably be in the up and down matches as 4th in his group depending on how that group looks ofc. Sure his play is pretty good but I dont think it will hold for RO16.
Liveforever wont win a game and will have to do onebase all ins to stay in S-class once again, hopefully he faces Leenock again and this time fails.
Tester will get to the finals and take a deserved win against MVP if the brackets lets them. I think its time for Tester to once again show everyone how truly awsome he is.
|
the code S toss look pretty bad, outside of genius MC. Think it's going to be another terran domination unless we see the new maps being used. I can see mvp taking another title or at very least a deep run to semi's. mc's pvt doesn't seem as invisible anymore.

it is entirly possibe however unlikely that we have 0 TvTs with 2 terrans in each group with them resulting in one going 1-1 and one 0-2 and not have to face eachother. From there it is once again possible for the same to occur in RO16 and no terrans being matched in RO8.
Just saying, you are not correct in saying 45% WILL be TvTs unless you already know the layout of the groups. Most likely lots will be but your statement is misleading.

ok im gonna pick 2 players per race:
zerg: nestea and uhm... i would have to go with zenio
terran: nada and MVP

At least they won't have to knock each other out early.

Possible yes. But it also depends in which groups they get drawn. Meaning if Idra is in Group C and Jinro in A they would meet eachother in the 2nd groupstage depending on their standings (first for one and other must be 2nd then).
Edit:
I just noticed. Due to standings it is possible we can have a group consisting of the following players.
Player A: oGsNaDa
Player C: SlayerSBoxeR
Player B or D: ST_July
Mindblowing group if that happens LOL.

Rain out of Code S, finally. That kid belongs in 2 x 4 wailing Code A.
I think FruitDealer is getting a lot of unwarranted flak for still retaining Code S. In the current state of the game, it's pretty hard on Zerg. The number of Zergs actually in Code S is pretty much evidence for this. IdrA even said that Zerg is going through a tough time right now. Maybe FruitDealer can lead the second revolution for Zerg, like he did in the first GSL.

well, he won gsl1. he lost 0-2 to MKP in gsl2. note- IMNestea, who won gsl2, also began his series against MKP 0-2. so if IMNestea had faced MKP in RO64, he would have been knocked out the exact same way. GSL3 he lost 2-3 to hongun in a very interesting series, trying to 1base v. toss fast expand that failed which ultimately lost him the series. GSL Jan i didn't catch how he lost to Zenio, but his other loss was to MVP, who completely dominated this season with 1 loss total.
what i've noticed is that FD has been forced to change his style of play. The roach buff changed a great deal of zerg. Leenock, however, has stuck to a slightly less flashy FD GSL1 style (but fewer baneling drops)-- which is almost completely roachless macro. I think that's why Leenock is fun to watch, as FD in GSL1 was fun to watch.
but considering that, i think fruitdealer is still in the top 3 zergs-- i expect him to do better next season as well. I think he's far ahead of leenock, who still has to go through the changes FD started seasons ago.

I like most of the players, wouldn't mind seeing Moon there though, the 5th race should be code S. I'm sure we are gonna have a lot of upsets at the start, untill people get used to maps. Better creep spread and nydus worm to defend those far away bases might be needed for zergs to remain competitive, at least it's what we get to see in gisado's stream. Most of those zergs are macro fiends, so should be fun!

Love how last season Artosis was saying Leenock is one of the best. Predictions for next season: Jinro v Idra finals confirmed

+ Show Spoiler +MVP said that MKP gets marines and marauders so he got more marines to counter the marauders and marines. Also MKP pretty much suiciding his units every game says more about MKP's state of mind than MVP's play. MKP's style is clearly not solid if base trades are his go to move when behind.

Booo 15 Terrans. TvT is incredibly boring to watch in my opinion and I'm really starting to tire of watching the same Terran rushes over and over.

Hmm I'm interested in how all these Zergs will do this time. Hope I can see as many Idra matches as possible, that guy's just a beast.
Leenock not being code s is still my biggest upset. I mean he didn't prepare well in his games against the terran all-ins by NextLiveForever but was obviously the better player.
And he's playing by far better than July_Zerg (in SC2, at the moment, don't hate me). Just watching the Up-Down matches of July made me cry. If he doesn't step up his game or just had a very, very bad time I can't see him advancing much further.

Yeah, July's games are painful to watch. Expectations are high of course, but come on, July, learn some early game stuff, use creep, make drones. You are the most recent golden mouse winner to play SC2, shove it up those nerds' asses!

Leenock is a very good, but not solid player. Loosing to rush builds twice in a row, especially on Jungle Basin with nearly a minute warning is really bad.
I think Leenock's style with fast infestors has quite a bit of merit, but his follow-up was less than stellar. I hope Nestea or Idra uses some of his build ideas and refines them into something awesome.
Did anybody stop to notice that there are two foreigners that got top-seeded? It's really sad that they don't get to play in the GSTL. I think both Idra's and Jinro's matches are fun to watch because of their playstyle.
|
Sad to see Maka and Leenock fall down to Code A. Maka is capable of playing solidly and producing very entertaining games, and the same goes for Leenock. I think their demotion has more to do with their up-down groupings than their actual abilities.
I loved seeing Maka go mass Raven into mass orbitals into mass BCs in the Gisado KOTH. Leenock has convincingly taken games off of strong players like Clide, and I think he is definitely one of the stronger Zerg players out there even if he is not as solid as the top tier Zergs like FD, Idra, Nestea.
Hopefully, the second Code A tournament will have Leenock and Maka both be in the finals.
|
So lol that Liveforever is still in code S.
|
I'm interested to see how MC does next tournament. Had Jinro been able to take his game in the 2nd group stage vs MKP it would have been a very different tournament.
It sucked for MC because he was looking good all the way up to the point when Jinro when mech, which noone else is doing, and MC still almost managed to take him out.
Have MC and MVP played recently I'd be interested to see that matchup

When are the Code B qualifiers for March? I was under the impression they were on Sunday. Which is like 12 hours from now? The offline qualifiers that Huk and Moonglade and Ret will all be taking part to get in Code A?
|
That said, I do think that MC is the only really capable Protoss of the bunch. I just don't see the likes of Tester/Genius/Inca beat people like MVP, MarineKing or even Nestea really...
|
Is the code A up&down starting today?
|
|
|
lol, Rain in Code A.... I fucking knew it hahhahaha
|
The only decent/solid Toss is MC and Inca. Genius lost all of my respect after his utter failure against Idra. Choya is useless, Tester played terribly, Banbanssu is the snarftoss, HongUnPrime is crap, anyproPrime honestly played decently against Moon but that was mainly Moon playing like shit than anyproPrime's skill. SadZenith is sad.
Zenio, IdrA and NesTea are really the only solid Zerg's left. I am a massive Check + Cool fanboy but they haven't been playing too well.
Everyone else is Terran.
FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

They're supposed to begin at 10 AM Sunday, which is like a half hour from now.
Whether that actually means games begin or if that's just the deadline for showing up and getting placed into your brackets I do not know. Unfortunately I can't seem to find any current updates on these matches that should be starting very soon.

This could easily be a repeat of the last Code S tournament if they don't change up the damned maps. No good protosses except MC+NsPGeniuS. I could see MVP going deep again, maybe even repeating (although that would be a stretch). I play Terran and we need some diversity here. Maybe I'll cheer for Cool this season, but I doubt he'll bring his game like in S1, his winners cheque has allowed him to drink too much.
Also, rain is in Code A. I love it, death to 1 base allins.

Hopefully, the GSTL map pool change will be the final test of their new maps before implementing them for the next GSL. It would be a shame if after all this testing on GSTL and the Gisado stream, the maps don't end up making the cut. However, I think GOM has too much to lose from not changing up their map pool.

Leenock totally deserved his losses, though. He played ludicrously greedy, and lost to a-moved marines due to forgetting to make any units at all.

He incorporated tanks pretty early on in all 3 games wich is in my opinion not copying MKPs style. It is pretty late in the game before you see MKP getting tanks and I have seldom or rather never seen him use them in a timing push.

+ Show Spoiler +Well, MVP went for an aggressive one-base, multiple barracks, pure marine aggressive push against MKP during many of the games, which is something many people thought would come out of MKP instead. People equate MKP with an aggressive, marine-heavy style, yet in the Code S finals MVP outproduced marines and was more aggressive than MKP, which was ironic considering MarineKing was dethroned as the king of aggressive marine play.

stop fucking bashing rain. He did some 1base all ins vs nestea but he then showed he is not only 1base all ins but an extremely solid player. Just watch MC vs Rain game 2 of GSL3 Finals.
Also, you are arguing the march season will be the same as January because there are no other players at + Show Spoiler [GSL4 Finals] + Thats. not. a. race. issue.
He is an extremely good player and he didn't win because he is Terran.

i still cant believe liveforever and sanzenith are still in code s while players like maka, leenock or rain have dropped down. but with polt, jookto and legalmind, there have been 3 ppl demoted who werent s-code worthy imho, and 5-6 worthy players got promoted. so all in all, the system seems to work. i still dont get how top could ever end up not being in code s anyway....

I hope Sangho practices and next times gets into Code S. Give liveforever a break. he took two seasons off to study and not to mention he got into the Round of 4 with having a pretty hard bracket.
Nestea and Makaprime. then loosing to FD.

From there it is once again possible for the same to occur in RO16 and no terrans being matched in RO8. Just saying, you are not correct in saying 45% WILL be TvTs unless you already know the layout of the groups. Most likely lots will be but your statement is misleading.
I'm kinda interested in hearing how he counted it to be 45%...

assuming 45% of the players being terran results in 45% of the matches being tvt which they clearly wont be.

I am enormously happy that Polt moved back up. His result in dropping to code A was the only one that really surprised me in the up/down matches.
