I feel like he would have gotten top 2 spots today anyway... so yeah no harm done, more chance of players in this group of death to be in Code S

Dear GOMTV.net users,

We will be giving out 2 Code S Seeds in the 2013 GSL Season 2. These seeds will be given to SK telecom T1 Rain and one other player that will announced in the near future.

Because Rain has received a seed to Code S of 2013 GSL Season 2 and no longer has to compete in his Up&Down group, he will not be playing in tonight’s matches.

Thus, Up&Down Group E will consist of 5 players (Sniper, Flying, Bbyong, Soo, and Byun).

The fact that Rain has received a seed is not due to a random selection of who we wanted. There is a reason why he has been chosen and it will be revealed soon. Enjoy the matches tonight as we say good bye to our Mok-dong Studio and the last regular season game of Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty!


Thank you.
GOMTV.net

I'm waiting for the explanation of the century. "we put all the names of the up and down players in a hat and drew a name. Rain won"

What? Why? He's only 3 map wins away from making it on his own. If they have to hand out seeds, give them to GSTL or Proleague beasts, players who perform well in tournaments, or top foreigners.

Yeah true... I feel MVP would have won GSL Season 1 2013, so not sure why they bothered playing the rest out - should've just given him his trophy

It's a really weird decision, heck, even if you announce this after he wasn't able to advance from U&D is more reasonable.

I'm gonna go and speculate on the reason:

GOM gives code S seed to OSL winner, then Kespa gives a seed to the current GSL champion for OSL.

Well I'm not going to complain as I wanted him and soo to both make it out of the group.

The amount of excellent players in that group meant atleast one (probably the one with the best GSL performance) would get seeded.

The only reason I can think of is Rain got shafted and replaced by Bisu at the South Korean HotS launch event showmatch and GOM had to repay him...

He's accomplished nothing since his OSL Championship/Code S ro4 run.

Wasn't Rain already seeded into Code S, when he appeared there the first time? Giving a single player more than one seed seems ridiculous.

That actually makes a lot of sense. It seems kinda likely, even. I mean, aside from the fact that GSLs are far more frequent, anyway.

lol GSL is sick of Zergs. Time to balance the races up a bit before their viewers suffer anymore.
