The one day qualifier for Super Tournament 2 concluded on Tuesday, finalizing the sixteen player roster for GSL's last tournament of 2018. GuMiho, presently #8 in the WCS Korea rankings, took a major hit to his Global Finals chances by failing to make it through the qualifier. Meanwhile, Trap (#9), sOs (#10), soO (#11), and Solar (#13) made it through the qualifier, and all have a chance to clinch Korea's final ticket to the WCS Global Finals.
Super Tournament 2 proved to be a pivotal event for the 2017 Global Finals, with Rogue securing the #8 seed from Korea with a last-gasp championship run in the Super Tournament.
Super Tournament 2 will be held between September 27-30 with 7500 WCS points and 30,000,000 KRW (approximately $26,600 USD) in prize money on the line.
Zest was late due to a traffic jam and got disqualified. No idea about herO but he is playing in a chinese tournament the 25 & 26th (theoretically Solar and Impact too) so maybe that's an issue.
Gumiho still goes to Blizzcon if all the following happen : - Trap and sOs are out in ro16 - soO is out in ro16 or ro8 - Solar is out in ro16, ro8 or ro4

Imagine the irony when ro16 goes Trap VS sOs and he is dead no matter what.

He had his faith in his hands and failed twice so yeah.
Innovation knocked out by Fantasy is note worthy and so too is Taejas participation(if actually the real Taeja) =D Cheering for Maru, Rogue and soO as usual. If Creator could recapture his glory of old that would be cool too =)

Yeah its the real Taeja; he said back on Cranks sc2 podcast he'd be coming back starting with the super tournament, although I don't know for how long he'll stay. Probably at least till the next GSL I hope.

All these players are cool, but the prospect of Gumiho not making it to Blizzcon somehow feels like a fucking crime.
