A Solar- weekly- newsflash would be cool. I mean he has by far the best english from all kr Pro Players around. He could keep all of us up to date :D
Can t Artosis just invite him to the Pylonshow someday?

I meant Pro players and wouldn t consider them as Pro players. Sorry, edited that

In fact, ScBoy is looking for the probability of inviting Byun to play a showmatch online these days

Well, I think we all know it's unfair—it's just a trade-off for the sake of more viewership.
Yeah, and a lot of Korean pros retired because of it.
Viewership today, lack of pros tomorrow

Also neither are as involved with the Korean scene since Polt is in the US and Golden is moving to Canada. They're probably not as up to date as Solar.

This is all really excellent news; the Chinese scene popping up to save Korea is a great deus ex machina.
Also, for the record, I've been a fan of Solar since the oooooooooolllld days when he was on Samsung KHAN. My team loyalty remains strong as ever.

That will probably be the worst idea ever, or the best if you really love all-ins and 40minute late games

Seriously, Code S already features a very brutal format- I shudder to think of what changes could be in store to make it even more intense.
My guess is that they are dropping the group stage format in favor of a normal elimination bracket, but we'll see.
Edit: Excellent interview waxangel, Thank you for doing this.

Great interview Wax! Thanks for posting it!

If I remember right SSL 2016 was originally planned to be BO1 single elimination but they changed it.

GSL had bo1 group stages way back at the start of code S, it was round robin tho.

Probably something OGN carried over from Brood War. The standalone OSL they did the year before also had Bo1 group stages, as did all the OSL's in Brood War. Also the 2011 GSL's probably had Bo1 groups because they had one every month and had to get through them fast.

I imagine a lot of it has to do with OSL in 2013 still being primarily a for-TV product, and they probably needed to fit certain time restraints.
