[image loading]2020 Global StarCraft II League: Code S Season 1


Life after military service? Perhaps it exists after all. (Wiki)TaeJa managed to survive Group F to advance in second place, becoming the only one of five post-military players to survive the RO24 this season. Group favorite (Wiki)Stats advanced in first place, while Hurricane and SpeCial were eliminated.


Group F and subsequent group selection ceremony.



The group selection ceremony was held directly after Group F, with Dark, Maru, Trap, and TY seeded as the top four players from GSL 2019. After two hours of group selections filled with negotiations, threats, and thinly veiled trash-talk, we ended up with the above groups.

Dark gave a textbook display of how to take advantage of the #1 seed's double-pick power, giving himself a relatively easy path to the quarterfinals. Meanwhile, RagnaroK introduced much chaos to the proceedings by dragging INnoVation into Group D, guaranteeing a group of death (his reasoning included wanting to do his friend PartinG a favor, but remained largely incomprehensible to the viewers).

GSL Code S will resume on Tuesday, May 05 9:30pm GMT (GMT+00:00) with Dark, TaeJa, Scarlett, and Dear competing in Group A of the round of sixteen.




Poll: Group of Death?

Group D has 9 code S titles, 2 silvers. 3 GOAT contenders for their races, GSL and OSL royal roaders, and Ragnarok.
Has foreign StarCraft hit rock bottom?

Surprised Dark didn't pick up Bunny to make his life even easier.

Also, did Ragnorak actually think Dark was going to save him? LOL.

I knew Fantasy was one of them, but who were the other three?

Bomber, Armani DRG, ZouN and Taeja. Fanta is retired
Edit
Oh that right Top and Dream too, so I guess there's at least 6 of them, do we know if Zoun did his military in the end?
Re edit: Zoun wasn't in the round of 24 anyway, my bad

I'm rooting for Scarlett, but man, it looks rough. The shortest amount of time to prepare, and she has to practice every matchup.

I guessed based on the list of those players that you mentioned, only Fantasy and Taeja managed to break further to the post RO32/RO24 brackets, though that Fantasy did retired last year.

At least she should advance further than her RO8 achievement.

All 3 races represented in all 4 groups.
There is at least one group with 2 of all 3 races.

Looks like an excellent setup for some great varied StarCraft 2 and a lot to prepare for the players!

Group B and D combined could be a badass ro8 by itself.
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...
