I enjoyed looking at the names of all the Up/Down players and seeing "Chris Loranger" amongst a sea of Korean characters. Hopefully HuK can make it through and make it two foreigners in Code S, however I would love to see even more, particularly people who haven't had a go yet such as Ret, Kas and Feast showed at IEM he had the potential to take down some Code S players!

I can understand the picks, but i'm not fully on-board with the naniwa pick. But nonetheless- congrats to both.

Still more chances for Zergs to get in through the Up&Downs! Come on Leenock!

I really hope to see some great games from NaNi and HuK in season 2!

The seed for NaNi is a bit early, he could do better season 3 or 4 after getting a couple of qualifiers under his belt and generally more training. I refuse to call it waste however, whoever made this call has obviously a very high opinion of him.

Those zergs are definitely quality over quantity that's for sure.

I really hope NaNi shines this time :3

It seems to me a lot of the animosity towards the foreign 'seeds' into the up & downs/code S comes to from the term 'seed.' Do people really feel that strongly about the right of GOM to incorporate 'wildcards' into their tournament structure? Most tennis and golf events do so? It allows them to recognise achievements outside of their qualification structure and incorporate players who make the tournement more interesting (from the organisers perspective) whilst, as the numbers are relatively low, not compromising the legitimacy of their qualification structure.

Wildcards can be used to honour peoples mast achievements and make for great story lines ( see Goran Ivanišević at wimbledon), the allow tournaments to promote young, local talent as well as help develop less strong scenes. There are many merits a tournament may wish to reward which their qualification structure is unable to account for and wildcards allow the organisers to recognise this.

Zerg just won GSL, how can the Zergling be sad?

Also, I am very glad to see that both Naniwa and GOM have moved on, I'll be happy to see him play in the GSL!

Also, i'm a but sad at the lack of any oGs player in Code S. TT


The league that's supposed to be made up of the best players of starcraft 2 is....stacked?
o.O


Weeeeeelll

Yeah i know, it's a bit obvious. But the Code S line up has rarely be this talented. By that i mean there's no real obvious lesser player in that list.


=P

yeah, on another note. other than group E there aren't a lot of stand-out names from the ten coming from up and downs.


Ehm, GanZi, Leenock, JYP, sC, Lucky just to name a few? :p

After GOM changed to rules so Code S players had a chance to go down to code A, after that it didnt take long before Huk went straight from code S > code A > code nothing without winning a game.

It's the same as the first few GSLs, there were a ton of Terran and Protoss but still Zergs were taking 1st place :D.

Even though i wish there were more zerg since there are only a few extrememly strong ones with different play styles it will be harder for the toss and terran to practice against them. I feel DRG is still the favorite to win next season also and Nestea is always a threat when he sits down in the booth.

Polt really deserved that. Naniwa is probably the best foreigner other than Stephano, who wouldn't do it anyway, so that seems like an ok choice. I hope he does something with it this time around.

Hope that Naniwa will at least reach the top8
If you make no mistake, yet still lose - you don't understand the game. Spiral out, keep going.
