Protoss has less than 10 players (even though 9 and 10 is a minor difference) in Code S for the first time since 2013 and it immediately means the end of the world?
Looking at the groups on the afreeca site, I see some barcodes. I'd like to know who the barcodes are. Also, for he Scarlett hypers: not only did she qualify, she was first in her group.

Check the Liquipedia page to see who the barcodes were.

But thats because they got ride of code A
But none made it into code A from scratch either. Idra and Jinro were seeded in after the open seasons based on their performances
They played in qualifier tournaments and qualified for Code S. I don't know how that's not from scratch.
There was no "qualifier tournament" for the first code S or code A in the sense of a tournament only for that purpose. The 2010 tournaments stood on their own - the qualification points were just a side effect. And yeah - the 2010 tournaments had qualifier tournaments but the korean pro scene of SC2 was still forming back then.
