Yay for Scarlett however. Doubt she will make it super far, but always amazing to see foreigners in the GSL | ||

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. | ||

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. 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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
