Beating retired players to qualify isn't very impressive, well good luck to them anyway.

Well yeah it's really hard to compare, i agree. I am more coming from a general pov that while starcraft has a theoretically infinite skill ceiling it's completely unrealistic to think that this means players only get better as time increases.
As i said, you only have so much apm/attention/mouse precision. Like splits simply won't get better anymore unless someone trains that shit for hours and hours every day and then the return of investment is pretty bad and he probably gets worse in different areas of the game as a result of it.

INnoVation has never been better than in 2013.

What do you exactly mean by this?
"Better" can be interpreted a lot of different ways to mean a lot of different things.

Also worth noting that in Season 1, Terran had disproportionate representation and was nerfed mid-season. Now Protoss has disproportionate representation, and with the Mar 30 Bluepost, it looks like they too will have to eat some nerfs. All to the good.

Race representation only meant something when there where more than 32 legitimate players between the three races fighting for 32 spots. Back in 2014 Terrans got left out of Code S because the race was so disadvantaged that only a few people could make it work on that level. If the same imbalance was present now, all the Terrans who just qualified for Season 2 would still qualify because the competition isn't deep enough to force them out. Bottom line is, you can't even get 32 really "code s" players anymore. How is anyone going to get left out when that's the case? What happened here, and will continue to happen, is that the best 32 players players qualify regardless of race.

Yea code S is a joke right now, maybe SSL bracket would be better.


But ro16 will be hard. Like last year.

Looks like BW scene in 2007-10

Yea, Scarlett currently has more WCS Korea points than she does WCS Foreigner points. You can't add your points together but you can collect them separately

This is a bit of a nitpick, but when was Terran not represented proportionally in Code S 2013? They had 11, 8, and 11.
