WCS Circuit: Summer 2019

The WCS Summer qualifiers/Challenger tournaments have concluded with sixteen international players earning flights and accommodation at the WCS Summer main event in Kiev, as well seeded spots in group stage #3. WCS Summer will be held during July 12-14.


Several regional powerhouses reaffirmed their dominance during the qualifiers. (Wiki)SpeCial won his sixth consecutive Copa America/Latin America qualifier, while (Wiki)Serral and (Wiki)Has both won their fifth straight regional qualifiers. (Wiki)Neeb won the North American Challenger for the third straight time, giving him ten NA Challenger titles in total.

In the WCS China qualifier, (Wiki)TIME reclaimed the #1 spot after ceding it to MacSed at WCS Spring. Only the Oceania/South-East Asia qualifier saw an entirely new champion emerge, with (Wiki)ButAlways defeating Probe in the finals.

Can this FINALLY be the year that Scarlett makes it to Blizzcon? She’s tied 8th in WCS points currently, giving her a fighting chance as always.
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)

Maybe? But you should start working on drafts of your "ASUS ROG was unfair" post now so you can post it in September, just in case

I don't know about that ASUS ROG thing, but skipping a whole WCS event is not the best way to get to Blizzcon... who knows, maybe she delivers her real level in a WCS event and makes a deep run, maybe she goes out in Ro16 vs an inferior player, maybe she runs into Serral super early again, ...

It's gonna be an interesting event seeing people giving Serral a hard time in Challenger... anyway, anything other than the finnish taking it again would be a surprise.

I've seen his other ID, MOMOrning, in some online cups before. But beyond that I don't have much of a clue about Lemon either.

Since we're half-way through the season and she has 1390 points at 7th place, I think she probably would want at least another 1500 points (taking into account that Winter offered less points and her probably not attending ASUS ROG) to finish out the season to sit comfortably within qualification range, which means if she gets 2nd place on the final challenger she would have to get either at least 1 second place or a quarterfinal+semifinal finish at the two remaining WCS stops.

Great to see the top players reaffirming dominance. I bit of a bummer that EU is so stacked, definitely some worthy contenders who will need to do it the hard way without paid flights/accom. HeroMarine, Showtime, uThermal etc.

I'm not sure how surprised I should be that Future beat TLO. I thought TLO was gonna end up losing to Neeb again.

Yes, it was this one: https://tl.net/forum/starcraft-2/547937-code-s-ro16-preview-gumiho-parting-soo-dear#6

He talked about it in the winner's interview after advancing, lol

No matter how many protosses are on the bracket they lose to no matter what who so for me, pointless championship.

I will wait for the meta to stablish i guess. Like the last 8 years

NA needs less and EU needs more slots.

There are so many EU players better than every NA player besides Neeb (and Scarlett on a good day)

4/4 slots is totaly unfair

You are 100% right but I cant really complain. WCS NA is really bad. Being fair, we would need more korean spots..

Sure, and then we can apply this logic on Blizzcon *insert random evil laugh*

Yeah, there isn't much room to complain about an unfair system when it was literally designed that way.

But at the same time you could make a severely logical argument that Neeb and Scarlett are both better than the majority of the EU pool (discounting Serral, of course. And maybe Reynor - they seem to be a cut above the rest of EU in tournaments that truly matter.)

NA isn’t as good as EU but it IS showing improvement. Watch the VODs from their Challenger playoff - some of the up and comers looked very good - particularly a couple of Terrans.

Reynor is really destroying this. If the fourth guy was Russian, the jokes would literally write themselves!
