2019 Global StarCraft II League - Code S Season 2

The Code S round of 32 delivered a twist ending as underdogs RagnaroK and Special advanced over their more illustrious peers sOs and TY. The pair of upsets concluded one of the more unpredictable Code S RO32s in recent memory, which has seen high profile players such as Maru, Zest, Rogue, and TY eliminated in the first round.

RagnaroK advanced in first place on the back of strong ZvT, surviving a barrage of Battlecruiser builds from both TY and SpeCial. Whether it was Nydus all-ins or defensive macro play, the often inconsistent RagnaroK was able to show off the skills that brought him to the playoffs of IEM Katowice earlier this year. Second place player SpeCial lived up to his reputation as a meticulous strategist as he took two victories over sOs, pulling out a variety of tricks including proxy factory-floats and even TvP mech.



+ Show Spoiler [View Matches] +


The Code S RO16 groups will be determined via the group nomination ceremony on Wednesday, May 15 9:30am GMT (GMT+00:00), with Classic, Dark, Trap, and GuMiho participating as the top seeds.

The RO16 players are as follows:

Terran: INnoVation, GuMiho, FanTaSy, SpeCial
Protoss: Patience, Classic, Hurricane, Trap, Dear, Stats, herO, PartinG
Zerg: Impact, soO, Dark, RagnaroK

Can honestly say this was not even close to my prediction.

Congratulations to RagnaroK & SpeCial for making it out.

JUANITO FIGHTING!! I was worried after he dropped games 2+3 against Ragnarok; especially the 2nd one seemed really winnable, but so happy he clutched against sOs!

One of the most insane days of GSL in recent memory, both in terms of results and strategies used.

Too tired to stay up, but I've seen the vods this morning and the games were great! Ragnarok looking particularly sharp.

Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

No they'll always complain every time a protoss wins because it's so deeply ingrained in them. This all started way back in BW.

Reminds me of a few matches in the NHL playoffs this year. Everything is upside down, but I'm having a wonderful time watching it. Gogo Juanito!

Of course, Protoss absolutely deserves to have 8 spots in the Ro16. And 9 spots in the ST Ro16.

I can't possibly imagine why anyone would complain about that. I mean, this all started way back in BW.
