Noteable players were alot and then again some of them might not be noteable anymore. As some have only tried to qualify thinking they could make easy entry money as they are not playing sc2 full time anymore. Like Dear who EJ says has been playing Overwatch.

TAiLS is also a notable failure considering how well he's been doing online recently...

Sad mostly for the protoss streamers like Genius, Seed, Hush or Super :'(

NightMare is from Dust gaming and often played against inNo in ladder iirc

Looks like an good season.

Don't have exact date, but would guess it'll be within the next 3 days since code S is about a week away on the 4th.

I guess for some people he isn't. Although after the new patch he's been having a lot of trouble especially against Terran, so maybe get ready for him to fall off again.

Dark and Solar just qualified for their 9th consecutive season of Code S by the way. One more for Nestea Award.

Notable doesn't mean someone who has had recent success or has a good chance of qualifying to me. If BoxeR decided to try his luck after not playing any Starcraft for years I'd consider it notable.

I take issue with these guys being listed as "notable failures". They played a combined 0 games. They didn't fail to qualify as much as they failed to show up to the qualifier.

Also can someone who has the Twitters maybe tweet at Kenzi (or someone else who would know) and ask for the results of the decider matches of each group? It would be nice if Liquipedia didn't have a bunch of "2-?"s and Aligulac could actually use those matches for their calculations.

Looks like a good season. Protoss seems slightly weaker but nothing damaging at all, barely worth mentioning.

The table of qualified players on the wikipage looks so weird, basically without teams except JAGW. Still cant believe all the disbands. KT, SKT, CJ... Good to see lots of familiar names. But how do they train now???
And wooow: Scaaaaarlett!

On the ladder I suppose. Most of ex-SKT1 and ex-KT guys have started streaming on twitch now. I presume they're all living alone. I guess after living for the last 6+ years with the same people, it's nice have a place (or at least a room) of your own.

Dunno about that, this time last year Zest lost in SSL qualifers to aLive, and lost to Life and myungsik in GSL preseason. He still managed to work his way to GSL champ

Also Scarlett!!
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Holy crow, that's a world first I think right? I don't think a foreigner has ever made it through the GSL qualifiers since the GSL opens.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Idra and Jinro both qualified for Code S, though not directly through a qualifier. Mana made it through up and downs in 2012 too, which is pretty similar.

But none made it into code A from scratch either. Idra and Jinro were seeded in after the open seasons based on their performances and all the rest got seeds in. Scarlett is the only one to have ever made it through the qualifier

Too many Zerg plebs here swooning over Scarlett... she's overrated. Let's focus on the real deals here: SC and Genius. Literally outta no where

Genius didn't show up and sC was there for easy money, someone said that he practised only 4 days for this event.

If he did he'd either be listed under qualified players or notable failures on the first page.

I didn't know Genius was still playing. One of my favourite players back in the day. He kept winning Colossus PvP while forgetting Thermal Lance.

Wasn't Noblesse Terran? I'd swear I remember him from GomTvT.

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?

Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

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.

Really happy for Forte, DRGLing and NightMare - some "new" material is very needed.

Not sure what to think about Scarlett. Her performance consisted of winning one match against Seed. Many Foreigners could've done that.

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.
Furthermore, I consider that some kind of Code A must be reestablished.

Back then the pro scene was still forming, now the pro scene is collapsing.

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.
