...NO ONE deserves to be placed immediately into Code S based off any results other than Code A performance. There's just too many random factors involved in the journey up there and for some one to be able to bypass all of that is pretty ridiculous considering the amount of amazing players that are still stuck in Code A. Besides, how do they pick the unlucky bastard that doesn't get to be in Code S so they have a free spot open?

This is a small price to pay for esports to grow and get better and to have more excitement. The key to esports is not for it to get "big" in NA or to get "big" in Korea, but for it to be a global success.

These are definitely the best Koreans from the far east... That couldn't make it into the Super tournament.

wow that's pretty cool. Guess more non-Koreans will take the trip out there if they already have a spot in code a and don't need to qualify first. Surely gonna lead to some weirdness in the up/downs if the "wrong" person qualifies for code s etc though. hehe.

Ummmmmmmmm why are you people getting excited over this? There is an Elephant in the room FFS. This competition will just be a farce as flash isn't going to be involved.

Pretty nice to globalize the scene a little more. Will definitely make GSL more interesting for foreigners to watch.
