Official statement by Snowbird: The brackets that were up for like 1min were not correct. There will be adjustments because of schedule conflicts of some players (MLG, Dreamhack). We will most likely post a final version of the brackets tomorrow. |

If they aren't ready for GSL then they'll just get knocked out so it all balanced out eventually.

parting symbol MKP and yugioh?
god damn that group is stacked (well..... 75% anyway lol)
|
viOLet said he wasn't going back to Korea, so if there's any adjustment to the groups now, he's most likely the person who will be missing.

Man, Parting and MKP can never catch a break.
|
Ehh, will wait until the official post tomorrow to properly look over an hypothesise then.
Hopefully both Violet and Thorzain are the seeds though. That will make me happy.

If those remain the groups, Violet could make it out and he does deserve it, he has placed highly among other koreans. Feel bad for Thorzain, that is a tough group for him. Keen could be good or bad and GuMiho isn't bad at TvT, though he hasn't done well last season. Squirtle would be very tough. Liking what I see though.

Parting and MKP in the same group! <3

Although Violet and Thorzain are far better Code S seeds than Nightend.
I have a feeling that Violet was invited, but declined due to wanting to stay in America and focus on MLG and other foreign tournaments. If so, then the seed will probably go to NightEnd like rumored and we'll see probably a 50+ page thread on how this is the worst decision in the history of e-sports.

Nightend doesn't have the skill to play in Code S. I'd much rather see Polt seeded once more.

Anyone know who SuHoSin is? I kind of feel bad for him, I can't imagine him getting out of there... MVP is winning again, Genius is decent vs zerg (and a GSL finalist no less) and Happy is IM's vs Z specialist.

Suhosin = Line. Don't discount him. He's pretty damn good when he chooses to be.
Parting hates his Zergy group.

Yugioh got into Code S by beating MKP. He's legit.

Once the GSL becomes sufficiently popular enough I'm sure he will stop giving out these petty seeds, but in till then it's just good business sense. It also seems strange that GOM would give a seed to viOlet when he is in America dodging his military service.

Naniwa earned his Code S spot as far as I am concerned.
