Wow, 1 Protoss for every Zerg and Terran that qualified from Code A. I'm glad to see that more Terrans are qualifying even though the TvP matchup hasn't been fully addressed. Probably says something about the new map pool why more Terrans qualified this time?

pretty surprised Reality made it. Grats to Jin Air on 7/8 players on the team Code S

If aLive, Fantasy, and Bbyong all make it we could have more Terrans than Zerg!

But don't count on it.

Count on it. FanTaSy is making it through in first place. :D

I think that might be a comment on aLive and Bbyong being in a group with Trap and RorO

I wish there was a way to decrease the number of SCV pulls we saw without actually nerfing Terran. It's just not very fun to watch.

Awesome results in Code A for Jin Air. Super-pleased that Terminator, as captain, can really stand alongside his teammates in Code S (for how long, I'm not sure...).

I feel sorry for poor Adios, though.

well, giving terrans more viable lategame options would naturally reduce the number of scv allins... scv allins are still very dicey, so players only go for them if they have fallen way behind or want to avoid lategame at all costs. unfortunately, playing from behind and playing in lategame at all have become somewhat interchangeable terms for many terran players. lets hope the recent patch will, over time, turn out to fix some of those issues.

Ugh, SCV pulls are one of the stupidest things. The degree to which I hate them cannot be measured by measuring systems known to man. We need some sort of eldritch Lovecraftian scale that starts at "infinity" and takes off from there to get at how much I hate SCV pulls.

They're easy to execute and horrible to watch. If the current game doesn't allow for Inno and Reality to beat Protoss without doing SCV all ins, then they shouldn't have beaten Protoss. Pre-planned all ins are so dumb. They're the dumbest.

Other than that, I'm pretty shocked that Life didn't make it. Has ZvP winrate slipped below 20% yet?
