Could anyone tell me..
Will there be 34 players in the Ro32 of GSL 2013 Season 2 Code S?
Or are there players forfeiting that we(or me) don't know about?
I believe there will be 32, but I don't know why this would mean anybody has to forfeit. After Rain's seed and all the Up and Downs there are now 31 players for Code S. Then there is one seed remaining. Where did you get 34 from? (I don't mean that to be insulting, but I don't know where the number came from so I can't help explain why it's wrong).

I went in the thread with "Awesome! Makes sense!" Then I read all these "explanations" and I get confused and slightly irritated. It would have been enough for me to just say "Rain seeded. DEAL WITH IT!", instead of a bunch of "no, we are totally not apologizing and giving a hundred apologies for what is not even clear why should it be any problem in the first place".
Not to mention every league is totally free to seed whoever they want by whatever (nonexistent) criteria they wish. They organize it, it's their event, they own it, they can invite whoever they want. They can seed Dustin Browder's grandmother if they so desire. They don't need to behave like some freaking apologetic servants to us.

he probably thinks the wildcard group will still be played

Interesting. It was kind of unexpected for me. Maybe GSL and OSL might be looking to collaborate in the future, with OSL champions getting Code S seeds and GSL champions getting OSL seeds?

That would make sense. If that's the case, an explanation: Last season's wild card group was a one-off though. It was instead of giving out seeds. Stephano did get a seed but that seed was to replace Polt who forfeited to go university in the US. They did not intend to give out any seeds last season.

This is just weird. But he said the reason will be revealed soon. I trust in chae.

I really hope he won some secret tournament...

yayy
now i have a reason to watch

They should have had a proper release before they went ahead and said they were seeding him. It looks very unprofessional to just say "we're doing this now and we'll let you know why . . . later."

Calling it: the reason why he is getting this seed is because he is joining an ESF team. Don't know why, just got that vibe.
Also, I don't see what all the commotion is about? :S

That doesn't make sense, why would he get a seed just for joining another team?

Why would Rain leave SKT? That makes little to no sense at all.

Gomtv can give out 32 invites to GSL if they wanted to.

I'm gonna be honest this seems like complete bullshit. Sniper would win between the two in overall GSL points am I correct? They better have a really good reason why he got a walkover in the hardest tournament in the world.

GOM doesn't make sense for a long time already.

dont see why anyone would leave a kespa team now to join a esf team

i hope that the seed is not cuz of stephano forfeited

Beside's it's their tournament, in my opinion they can do what they want.
This.
I like Rain and I'm happy he'll be in code S. I have no problem at all with the seed.

I like Rain getting the seed too. But that letter is pathetic. Why explain with no reason?

Sniper won a GSL, Rain won an OSL, so that's roughly equivalent, but Rain is much more popular. It's unexpected, but you can still somewhat justify it.
Hell, remember when they gave Idra and Sen seeds to GSL Season 1 in 2012? Sen hadn't even placed higher than 3rd at a premier tournament, and Idra had only won IEM Guangzhou, against relatively light competition. This is much more reasonable than that at least.
