Zerg fans had plenty to cheer for on Wednesday night as RagnaroK, JinAir_Rogue, CJ_Hydra, and Samsung_Shine took all four Code S spots up for grabs in Code A. Meanwhile, KT's Flash suffered his second consecutive elimination in Code A, making it two straight seasons where he will not be playing in Code S.
The night's games started off with Group G providing a number of surprising results. The StarCraft 2 world had heard little from Ragnarok since the dissolution of Azubu's Korean progaming team, but the teamless Zerg recorded a perfect 4-0 record over ST_Curious and Rogue to take first place in his group. On the other hand, one of the most famous Code S regulars in Curious was sent down to Code B, failing to win a single map in the group. In the battle for the second place spot, JinAir's Zerg ace Rogue triumphed over KT's Stats to advance.
Group H was headlined by Flash's elimination, who fell to third place as Hydra and Shine made their way through to Code S. Flash started his group with a quick 0-2 loss to Hydra, but went on to 2-0 ST_Panic in the losers match to earn a second chance. Flash seemed well on his way to Code S ticket after going up 1-0 in the final match against Shine. However, the Samsung Zerg worked his trademark black magic and bamboozled Flash into playing greedily against his early roach attack, tying up the series 1-1. To make amends for his dark deeds in the previous game, Shine then took on Flash in a straight-up macro game in game three, emerging victorious once more to earn passage to Code S.
I´m really disappointed by Flash. I can´t wrap my head around why he built the 3rd CC against Shine of all people. This one´s totally on him. After that I couldn´t even watch the last game. T_T

Wrong. It's not about him being overrated he just has a ton of fans. People want him to succeed. No one considers him elite, just very good, which he is.
