Race Totals for season 2. 11 Protoss, 8 Terran, 9 Zerg.
Not bad at all. Glad to see Zoun finally make it, he's been a hyped up and comer for a while. Also cool that we finally have 1 foreigner per race in the tournament now.

From what I've seen of him, Zoun's PvT is quite strong. His PvZ and PvP aren't so great though.

Not sure he can qualify as a hyped up and comer when it has taken him this long to make Code S.
At least he's already a Proleague champion though.

Terrans doing so poorly in the GSL qualifiers, fortunately the patch is coming to save them.

Technically, Terran has been doing poorly across all offline premier tournament qualifiers this year, with the exception of GSL Season 1, where about 1/3 qualified were Terran.
One of the cool things about the Code S qualifiers nowadays is looking at player lists and seeing which old names decided to stop by. Alicia is arguably the best player to never win an individual title, cool that he hung around for a couple days.
I really do feel bad for Creator... he seems to have such a mentality block when it comes to being on the brink of elimination... skill wise he should easily be able to qualify every time

Alicia, Circumstance, meet ByuL. (A player who happens to be known more for his skill than "that one picture with bad makeup)".
