No clue why people constantly underestimate sen's level of skill. Every time we see him play he goes far, he even tends to hold his own vs high level koreans. Really the only thing I've seen from him that is suspect is his current ZvP. If nothing has changed from his NASL play, it looked kind of weird and might not hold up against code S level competition.
Everyone's talking about ForGG and that's fair enough as he is really talented and will be a big chance to progress far but I reckon the other guy that's gone under the radar is Brown, who has been on an absolute tear. I don't think I've seen the guy lose a game yet from memory and he was the other one who really stood out for me. FWIW I agree that tier 4 would probably beat tier 3 in a match.

No, IdrA and Sen have actually been given Code S spots, for their results.
Yeah right for their "results" :D
Their "results" are qualifiying for the first gsl seasons, ON THEIR OWN, and in Idra´s case, never actually dropping out of code s. Idra and sen both qualified for every gsl season they entered, they definitely earned their spots and deserve to be there.
Those spots were almost a year ago, back when Bitbybit actually made the Ro16. GSL has gotten progressively harder with each season afterwards.

Forget bit by bit prime. Remember even artosis qualified back then. The level of competition back then compared to today is night and day.
