The final day of GSL Code A concluded, confirming 31/32 of the players to compete in the upcoming Code S tournament. With a record low three Terran players qualified for Code S, many fans were looking on to see if MVP.Dream and AX.Ryung could make their way through. However, both players were eliminated in the end, defeated by Zergs JinAir_TRUE and CJ_Hydra.
Code S will now proceed with 15 Protoss, 13 Zerg, and 3 Terran players. It is the lowest number of players for any one race in Code S history, with the previous low being 5 Protoss players in Code S October and November of 2011. The record high remains 20 Terrans in Code S October 2011.

Not yet determined.
Well, anyway. Almost no ZvT's next season (-> My favorite matchup, by far!), no Terrans for Life to destroy (-> My favorite player :-P ) and lots of Skytoss vs SwarmHost-Turtle shit (-> The most annoying shit ever)...
... can't get rid of the feeling that's gonna be a really boring season. The first time I'm actually more excited for WCS NA, there's gonna be a great amount of awesome ZvT's (Bomber, Taeja, Polt vs Scarlett, Jaedong). And unfortunately, since the seasons take so long now, that's gonna be that way for quite some time :-/
Well, I'm not sure I will watch a lot of code S this season... I don't particularly like ZvZ or PvP... or even PvZ once it goes longer than the 15th minute mark.
