Man I can't believe 8 out of 9 Jin Air players are going to be in the GSL next season, that's gotta be some kind of record. Happy to see soO is back but the lack of TANGTANG after he beat Zest is rather sad
Creator finally coming back to GSL. Last time it was in 2013. Really happy to see 2 Prime players making it through this time, and others were really close too.
Yeah Stats and Leenock not being there is annoying, but the rest is pretty good honestly. I wish Zest would find a way back up but if he's not there yet, then he's not there yet.

SKT had 7/8 players last year in Code S, not Code A in season 2,so they still have the record, Jin Air might lose some players in Code A

Unfortunately, Zest had a lot of hype, and players with a lot of hype behind them get more shit when they're not doing well.

I loved that line hahah
Can I open a swag_bro fanclub?
haha you can and all LR regular are going to sign up :D
And yeah JD got way more bashing, but his fans are way more annoying than Zest fans.

Ah yes, last year when SKT had insane depth, I forgot about that. 7 players in Code S I believe out of a roster of 12? (I'm not sure on the exact leaving date of Journey and Sacsri, I think it was April/May time during S2)
As for Jin losing players in Code A, only ones I'm really thinking might drop out there are Symbol and Pigbaby. Trap has been on fucking fire recently. Maru is Maru. Rogue is seeded into Code S this season, sOs is going to get his mojo back and Terminator came out of nowhere this season and I have faith it wasn't a fluke.

I understand neither, I laugh because of both.
Well Flash didn't qualify for GSL so he wasn't seeded for Code A so he had to qualify. That simple. sOs, soO and many others are in the same boat, really.

Oh of course. I just don't understand why the "Ultimate Weapon" is still struggling to even be just a Code S regular. But oh well.

As long as you don't hate zerg and you are saying this because of the hate, i'm going to point out to you that Zerg is the least represented race in code a with 12 players (terran has 15 and toss 19)

Normally I detect sarcasm well enough but there wern't that many zergs who could've qualified to begin with (Shame on you PengWin) so it didn't make sense to me to use sarcasm

Those thing are so randomly unreliable it's painful.
Lots of surprising results, Stats, Classic, Zest and toa lesser extent Losira should all have made Code S in my opinion. Happy to see Creator, DRG, Impact, HerO and Flash make it.
The only person I wish made it through who didn't is TRUE (who was aggravatingly close), but he forsook his Jin Air brothers which forever curses him in my eyes. Super glad to see DRG, LiquidHero (love him and loathe his cannon rushes), Flash, Symbol and the Axiom boys. Should be a good upcoming season!

I guess when things are going bad, they go really bad? Last Code S he was in, should have gotten out of his group but somehow lost to DRG. Then the seeds were reset so he had to qualify, but up to this week he's not played well since like... Homestory Cup, so he didn't deliver. He was on a pretty long downward spiral there, but things are looking up slightly now. And keep in mind that he only reached his peak SC2 performance last year, "God" and "Ultimate Weapon" aren't exactly recent nicknames. Meanwhile, other players who have more SC2 individual successes to their name are also struggling with the same things, see Zest, soO and sOs.

I know, right? That would have been glorious.
BTW, anyone keeping tabs on how many google+ accounts must be created so that GOM's Youtube reaches their sub goal of 100k subs by March 21st? I'd really like them to release all Season 2 VoDs on Youtube.
By the way, the GomExp Youtube channel needs another 51k subs till March 21st, if they reach that, then they'll actually release all GSL Code S season 2 vods to Youtube. Anyone got time to make that many accounts and sub with all of them? <.<

RICH should just write a bot to do that. If there is a captcha, let TL posters solve it before posting.
I reckon Flash will make Code S again, 4-0 his Ro32 group in Code S making himself look invincible, then break everyone's hearts by dropping out in the Ro16, just like every prior Code S
Very happy to see soO, sOs, Trap, Creator, HerO, SuperNova, Ryung, Symbol and RagnaroK make it. Of the players who didn't I kind of don't mind most of them except the Axiom guys, Zest, HyuN and LosirA.

I literally can not get over all the people who actually believe this game is balanced atm. The number of zerg + protoss who manage to qualify for tournaments is practically DOUBLE the number of Terrans. It is completely ridiculous!

There were already a whole bunch of Terrans qualfied for Code A to begin with, look at the total lineup - 19 Protoss, 17 Terrans, 12 Zerg.
Starleague Ro16 was 7 Protoss, 5 Terrans, 4 Zerg.
GSL Code S Ro32: 12 Toss, 13 Terrans, 7 Zerg.
WCS Premier: 10 Toss, 9 Terrans, 13 Zerg.
IEM Katowice: 5 Protoss, 7 Terrans, 4 Zerg.
If anyone has any right to complain, it would be Zerg. Unless you were sarcastic and meant P+Z is literally 2xT, which would be balanced.

That's because all the top Terrans are already in Coda S this season.
