Detailed results and standings on Liquipedia

The second WCS America qualifier for the American sub-region saw four more players in (T)deimos.KoMA, (Z)mYi.Kane, (T)Core.Sonic, and (T)ROOT.MaSa earn spots in the Challenger League. The earlier qualifier #1 had seen viOLet, SeleCT, Bails, and SaroVati earn spots.

One more qualifier remains for the America sub-region, with additional qualifiers remaining for the South East Asia and Taiwan/HK/Macau sub-regions. Additionally, a "Ladder Wildcard" (regionless) qualifier remains as well.

The WCS 2014 system has changed the Challenger League drastically, with players who make it through the qualifier being matched up against one of the previous season's Premier League/Challenger players in a single best-of-five series to decide qualification for the new Premier League season. A detailed description of the new WCS system can be found here.

Happy for Kane and Masa. A little sad that Xeno couldn't quite make it but maybe he'll squeeze through in the third and final qualifier.

KoMA played pretty well against Xenocider in the finals. When I saw the final 4 of that bracket he was probably the person I least expected to make it out since I didn't really know anything about him, but the way he played definitely shows that he deserved it today. Good luck and it's good to see some new faces getting into these tournaments along with the old.

Xeno lost to Koma? I thought he was the next foreign banjovi since he won that one tournament in Korea.

lot of people like to claim "terran is too hard to play if you're not korean", so NA terrans beating out NA protoss/zerg is fairly notable in that regard

as in the first step to be able to ACTUALLY win something O_o -> no challenger -> no premier.

Congratulations to Masa, Kane, Koma and Sonic! So cool to see all the NA players qualify and show high quality games! Keep up the good work guys!
I hope that hendralisk, jig, desrow, qxc, catz and xeno will "represent" in the last qualifier and in the wildcard!

One more qualifier remains for the America sub-region, with additional qualifiers remaining for the South East Asia and Taiwan/HK/Macau sub-regions. Additionally, a "Ladder Wildcard" (regionless) qualifier remains as well.

The TW/HK/Macau qualifier already finished. Slam, Ian, and Has took the spots.
