How does Dark not have a team? He had the most fun ceremonies at GSL v World

Probably for the same reason most pros don't: no offer was lucrative enough.

Gumiho still goes to Blizzcon if all the following happen :

- soO is out in ro16 or ro8
- Solar is out in ro16, ro8 or ro4

Gotta keep those fingers crossed...


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

yea I wanted Gumiho at Blizzcon, but I wanted him to make it there by being really good... I guess shit happens, maybe he can still play really well at Blizzcon if he does manage to make it

Remember? Last year, when Rogue's only chance to qualify blizzcon was winning Super tournament s2 and he did, and he took the blizzcon as well.

Whenever sOs won blizzcon, he was only ranked about 12th 14th among 16 players.

Even when ByuN won blizzcon, he was only on fire lately since last season of GSL. In previous season, he was someone who got eliminated in code A.


To win blizzcon, it's not really about who had many trophies in the year. It's only about who is on fire at November in blizzcon. Sc2 is always random especially in pro scene, I wouldn't be surprised much even if one of these 4 win Supertournament , and win blizzcon as well.

May be it's time for Rogue to rise again? I can't forget his final with Inno last year.
But I really wish sOs to repeat his glory days on the territory where he feels most comfortable, it's just I don't think he plays his best starcraft from that last final with Inno one year ago in Code S. He was really close back then. It would be really fun if he destroy the expected Serral-Maru long waited rivarly and prove yet again as the most shocking player ever :D

I just want to say how great it is to see team icons next to almost all of the koreans in this tournament!

hurricane just always seems to have gumi's number. he always eliminates gumi only to drop his next match, it's annoying. i'm crossing my fingers and toes for sOs and trap to drop their first matches of the super tourney

Wow, that's a GREAT bracket for sOs fans. The only problem being Maru in RO8, but sOs certainly SHOULD be able to take Keen down, and Trap's got a rough first round matchup against Stats. Anything could still happen, but I'd give reasonable odds to sOs somehow doing what sOs does and clinching the last-minute spot for Blizzcon.
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)

Why are soO and Bunny matched up in the ro16?
Guess I'm gonna have to cheer for soO there, so he can win Blizzcon! Though I'm gonna miss Gumiho.

Maths on sOs!

If the following events happen, he qualifies for Blizzcon, even if he goes out in the Quarterfinals:

1. He defeats Keen
2. Stats defeats Trap
3. Solar does not advance to the final (i.e. he loses to probably Stats, Rogue, or Maru)
4. soO does not advance to the final (i.e. he loses to probably Dark, Classic, or TY)

If he goes on to defeat Maru (or Rogue) in the Quarterfinals (but loses in the Semifinals), then the following events must happen:

1. He defeats Keen and Maru (or Rogue)
2. Stats defeats Trap, Trap loses to Solar/Impact in the Quarterfinals
3. Solar does win the Tournament (i.e. he loses to any other player in the event)
4. soO does not advance to the final (i.e. he loses to probably Dark, Classic, or TY)

If he makes it to the final, but doesn't win, then these events must happen:

1. He wins vs. Keen, Maru/Rogue, and Stats/Trap/Solar/Impact (Since Trap and Solar are on his side of the bracket, sOs advancing to the finals immediately rules both of them out)
2. soO does not advance to the final (i.e. he loses to probably Dark, Classic, or TY)

If sOs wins, he qualifies for Blizzcon.

If Maru wins this and then Wcs Global finals ( and I think he can do it ) they can build a statue of himself in the GSL studios

It's even better because almost a third of the logos is from JAGW (5 out of 16)
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

It should have been six, I was sad to see Cure got eliminated.
Mark my words, sOs will win a GSL one day

i thought soo had no chance to qualify for blizzcon? he's had his worst year i think losing to evil rogue in blizzcon broke him???? well if he still has a shot then i hope he makes it. i dont see him ever beating maru, but maybe he can at least get second again

I like sOs and all but it becomes his curse of being very close to Top 8 but fails short in the end. So I don't expect sOs to make it.

soO on the other end is the ultimate survivor (until the final of course). So root for soO!

You mean a bracket that lets soO play against Bunny and quite possibly TY? Given his ZvT I find that very unlikely, sad as it would be
