Wait, someone actually called StarLeague Code S? Ehm. On a more serious topic: Leenock did not have to do 11 seasons in a row, he could be in Challenger League and be a contender for Nestea award (just like MKP and DRG). Ofc, i am kinda upset that he did not get it, but we all know what happens once you get Nestea award :D

I don't know whether it's due to esF fanboyism or SC2 old legends fanboyism, but I am surprised people are losing interest in WCS Korea just because MVP, MC, DRG and other 'old legends' aren't playing in them. The fact is, most of them are losing steam and simply not good enough. There is a league of new better players now, from Kespa and from the new generation (Maru, Life, etc.).

If you lose interest in a game just because your favourite players/teams aren't playing (because they suck or don't dominate anymore), then that's just sad for the growth of e-sports.

And all these "faceless Kespa players" BS is frankly disrespectful and not even funny. Just click on their TLPD profile, for Christ's sake - their photo is right there.

TL allows attacks on KeSPA players, but not on foreign and original sc2 players. Deal with it!

And everyone calls OSL Code S anyway. We all know it's Code S. So it is 9 seasons of GOM Code S and then 1 season of OGN Code S. It was Code S nontheless and he qualified through GOMtv Up and Down last season. If it had been a completely separate qualifier I wouldn't argue. But 10 seasons in a row is 10 seasons in a row.

Oh well, SC2 just lost a few more viewers until he gets the award. Deserving ppl not getting what they achieved is pretty bullshit. It's like changing the prizepool in a tournament right before the final.


Lol you must be new here. Even back in the Brood War days MSL and OSL (and GOM Classic) were always separate entities. Why would an achievement in an OGN tournament count towards a GOM tournament series title? Hardly reasonable.

And lol @ "SC2 just lost a few more viewers until he gets the award." Wow... that line was so edgy you managed to cut me even though we're not in the same country. XDDDDDDD


I'm getting tired of it too and it doesn't help when I always thought the term Code S and Code A was stupid. Whomever came up with that idea. This is me giving you the CJ face. -_- At least you guys could have branched it to other sports. You know, it might just help outsiders better understand the complex system instead of going, "what does that even mean?"

Yeah, stop kidding yourself. Keen and Leenock were easily the favorites, and Avenge is more popular (and has more recent notable results in GSTL) than Pigbaby. Pigbaby is a nobody. Just because you're a fan doesn't make him a favorite hahaha.

Really? Because I'm pretty sure he won IPL5 and DreamHack Stockholm as well as placing 2nd in GSL November.

Speaking of which, how can this be Code S if it's not the GSL?

Uh, no they weren't and this is coming from a huge Leenock fan. if you've been paying attention to PL you would know Pigbaby is legit. That's what we call selective reasoning at it's finest bud. You watch GSTL. Good for you. So do I and I also watch PL. If you were following PL in the slightest where you'd see Pigbaby do his thing you'd know this. Look at the polls as well. Pigbaby; Pigbaby; Pigbaby. I'm not even a real fan of Pigbaby's but I know when someone is running good, so save the nonsense for somewhere else.

Pigbaby may not have been a favorite to get out of the group, but the only people who were surprised at his advancement were people who didn't follow Proleague.

Apparently Pigbaby vs. Rain from Proleague Round 6 T8 vs SKT had a cool strat that nobody saw coming. Unfortunately I don't have a vod link. See post below :D

Also Pigbaby vs. RorO. Cool game as well

Thanks, both of you!
I already saw the game versus roro, i thought it wasnt particularly interesting, but i sure would've shit my pants if an overlord would be that close to scouting my push.

Lol, the game versus rain was fun indeed. Haven't seen that one before.

Woohooo Pigbaby is my man! Most of my favorites are in Code S with the glaring exceptions of Bunny and Flying. Hopefully Bunny will make it soon.

Pigbaby's not a household name, but he's hardly a nobody. He's a cult favorite the same way that GuineaPig was - quirky name with a quirkier play style.

Honestly, I have no idea who Avenge is because I haven't been following GSTL lately (exaggeration, I remember him from his Zenex days). But PigBaby is just as well known in Proleague I feel (albeit less accomplished overall) if we're saying people are popular based on team leagues...
