I think Rain's seed has something to do with this


DING DING DING!

Answer!

Rain wins this cup/gets 2nd.
No other explanation.

too bad this tournament is spoiled?!


I mean I can't read Korean, but the champions and runner ups of 2013 sounds more like an end of the year tournament like Blizzard Cup. Unless you're suggesting the finalists of every GSL season this year have already been determined in advance and the games have already been played.


Well, why would they announce the end of the year tournament now? The Blizzard Cup for 2012 and 2013 wasn't announced until couple weeks before the tournament.

It could be a tournament at the beginning of this year..

conspiracy! TL didn't make a post about HerO in the up and downs this season because all of 2013 has already been played and they knew he wasnt going to make it!

But Rain hasn't been a champion or runner up of anything in 2013.

Fuck..there are only 3 players I even root for, and Byun is one of them. This is really unfair towards the rest of the group :/.

Rain is undoubtedly a good player who is Code-S level.

However, I just feel like if they played out the wild-card group then who is most deserving NOW will get into code-S.

The only player who gained more from this than the rest of the group E is Rain himself. There was one less very strong player in the group to get past to make it out.

It's unfair on the players who got 3rd place since there's not going to be a wild card group to give them another chance to make it in to code S. That's a shame since Noblesse looked like a beast in his group.

Rain won the first OSL.

MVP deserves the other seed.

This is good for the players in the group because now they don't have to play against rain. If Byun didnt make it out as is he wasn't going to with rain to play as well. This is unfair for the other groups, especially those who came 3rd.

Rain dropped out of code S as his schedule conflicted with his ro32 matches. If you recall, life and other players can attend to both tournaments so it wasn't fair for him at that point.

If Rain had informed GOM a week before, he would have gotten his group moved. It was a last second/spur of the moment decision from SKT to send Rain to Dallas, putting GOM in a hard place.

Mmm... He deserved it IMO. He still the best toss in the game right now. No one plays as well as him. WOL Toss is struggling and yet he still has a positive win rate against pros using safe builds. He rare all-ins.

And MC...

Btw, i really believe the last seed is for Scarlett. I believe they have invited her already, and she's gonna go to Korea to play GSTL so why not play Code S also ?

They bring in the viewers, and that's important. Especially with HotS coming out, they need to capitalize on all the buzz they can. Besides, Stephano has managed to show he deserves his slot. It's possible someone else can too.

Very strange move...
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...
