GSL Qualifiers have always many byes.
Is it because many are too shy to compete?


It's useless to try at this point, players are just too good for amateurs now ...

There are so few actual pros left in Korea it's worth a shot, even if you're barely GM in Korea. If Noregret can qualify for Code S, any GM player can.

you give Noregret to little credit, he qualified by beating Impact twice.
I doubt every GM player can do that.

While that might be true, amateurs are not going for it (and the few that have like Prince haven't met much success). You do have to actually go to the studio for a day (in this case two) which disincentives people.

I doubt every GM player can do that.

NoRegreT deserves some credit, but I doubt he can surprise people again which is I assume what happened when he qualified last time.

The top top guys are several leagues above everyone else. With no latency effects, players at the GM level don't stand a chance unless they're ranked top 12ish, and even then their game plan is likely to get studied and countered super hard.
I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.

Currently Scarlett, SpeCial, Zanster, SortOf, puCK, DnS and NoRegreT are in the foreign house. There could be some Chinese players staying elsewhere that will also give it a shot.

Hopefully the lower tier of Korean Starcraft can rise up and drive out the dirty foreigners. If Korean SC2 is going to survive into 2019 after some major retirements we are going to see in 2018, it will need players like Creator, NightMare, Impact, Pet, etc. to step it up.

Impact has been doing well recently, so he should get in. As for the rest...I mean their gap already closed a long time ago.
