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.

Back then the pro scene was still forming, now the pro scene is collapsing.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

It's a real shame about code a. The new system will be great for those at the top to maintain their careers, but I really feel for those players who are ranked around the 32-100th in Korea mark. They have basically no where to play and no teams to improve in. I think losing those players slowly to retirement will be a very hefty loss for the scene.

I'm totally aware that there appears to be no alternative but it sure does suck for the scene in kore

When that happens (most current pro are gone and and no one plays sc2 professionally) the skill cap will be lower than ever, and even though the scene is still alive, its basically a game that play for fun.
