What about DRG/BoxeR though, will they be back in time to make the code A qualifiers? Also, does anyone know whether Ganzi gets that code A spot or not?

SaSe won a EU tourney that had a free trip to Korea to compete in Code A a month or two back.

yes but some people say it was a trip to korea but hed still have to qualify for Code A and other say he is 100% in code A.
Just wanted some clarifcation as in topic post, doesnt say anything about Sase in code A where they go about other foreigners turning up.
I think my favourite part of GSL has always been the qualifiers... I just get a different feeling watching artosis and torch videos of the qualifiers. Super excited for this!! Good Luck everyone competing!!!
SaSe won the Rakkaka (spelling?) tournament over Naniwa, however Naniwa got his Code A from MLG.
This is awesome though to have the Code A qualifiers casted. I've missed seeing some players like Maka, kkomma and Rainbow. Also wouldn't hurt to see more games from DongRaeGu, Junwi and BoxeR!
Awesome! I can't wait to see some of those Code A qualifier games everyone's been talking about. Should definitely be a good way to see some of those up and coming players before the Code A season begins.
It looks like August is going to be a big month for GSL. I'm so hyped for all the things listed especially the Boxer vs. Yellow showmatch and Naniwa, Thorzain in Code A. Can't wait!
10 hour qualifiers omg. 6 hours earlier than the normal gsl code S weekly air time. That's 5 am here in the Netherlands >< I'm not going to get sleep LOL!
So this is looking more like the pre-liminary for OSL from BW :D ?
Casualties are guaranteed during and after the event
I look forward to seeing all these ladder beasts that we never know the names of. Especcially the NSHoseo guys, how many more Artosis mancrushes can be on one team?
does this mean GSTL season pass owners will get to see the BO3 between boxer and yellow via vods? I'm at work during the matchup and I really would like to see it
I'm such a GOM fanboy :D First time I'm a fan of a company I think. What people want, you deliver to them (streamed code A qualifiers are something everyone wanted to see for a long time), amazing work <3 By the way, you should invite Jason "canon in your backside" Lee to cast some imo.

I'm just speculating, but usually everything that is not GSL/GSTL is free to watch in VOD (group nominations, LG3D tourney). I doubt this showmatch will be an exception to this rule.
Can only thank GomTV for providing us with the opportunity to watch the the battles going on the "2nd circle of hell", aka Code A pre-qualifiers
I've got my GSL August Ticket this morning and now getting this news only makes me feel even happier with my investment. Gonna love every second of this.

Of course she isn't... there's no way she is high enough on the ladder yet. Maybe a few GSLs from now.

I very much look forward to the day she is prepped and ready to hit the big stage, though.
" Fenix will be arriving on August 2nd and on August 9th, Naniwa and ThorZaIN will be arriving to play in Code A and Code A, "
Does anyone else think that Naniwa and Thorzain going on the 9th is a bit late? I'd love to see them go on the 2nd with Fenix to get a good load of practice on the Korean Ladder

It's not possible because of the Blizzard European Invitational in Poland on the 6th to 7th, where both me and Naniwa are participating. We're leaving on the 8th which means we arrive in Korea the 9th!

I hear the lag from EU to Korea is pretty terrible. I hope your pilot can micro your plane correctly, otherwise maybe you should use your WC3 skills.

Thanks for the quick response =) and good luck to the both of you at the Blizzard European Invitational.
I'm confident you will both make it to at least the Code A ro8

This are all great news! I really hope that Nani and Thor does well in the GSL, but I also hope they can attend the next MLG, so hopefully they get an up and down chance, but misses the finals.

I miss jason lee. He was so much more enjoyable than most of the code A casters.
10 Hours of starcraft tomorrow? Oh Yes!! Thanks for broadcasting these! Im also so interested in seeing how Naniwa and thorzain do in Code A. I also hope QXC makes it through the qualifiers! :D

why is there a grave in tsl icon
It's not a grave. I believe its the picture of "clubs" , the one you find in a deck of cards, if I'm not mistaken.
I love how gom is always listening to community feedback. They're the best! Now if you're listening, put together a 1 year subscription fee that would include all of code s/a and gstl at a reduced rate compared to the individual prices.
I have university when it's on so I'll miss it live, which really sucks, but at least I can watch it later on. Even though it feels strangely intrusive to watch, I'm really looking forward to it. =)
Is Sase going to play for F.U or just the 3 players from the MLG program ( or he playing for completely different team ? ^^ ) or isn't he competing in the GSTL ?

Hopefully he'll be playing for F united. Though not too sure.

If you mean between "T"and "SL" then it is Mjölner/Mjölnir, the hammer of Thor, picturewikipedia
Sucks for some of the players at MLG (Boxer, Ganzi, DRG, MMA)... they gotta go through the Code A qualifiers pretty much immediately after getting back into Korea.
Actually are they even in Korea yet? Seems like theres a good chance they haven't got back yet.
EPT
this is much preferable.
