He is already qualified. The previous season's Ro4 are automatically qualified for the next Ro16.

I do wonder about the timing of this second season. Why do they begin it so soon? Katowice is not until late February 2021, and after Code S season ends in late August, Afreeca only has a Code S and a Super Tournament left to fill out more than five months of schedule. Even with (hopefully) a Global Event at the end of the year, that is probably just a weekender. Seems it would be better to spread the tournaments out more.

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.


Fewer terrans qualified because 3 of the 4 seeded players were terran.... we just had a TvT GSL finals.

The terran ability to balance whine may be their second strongest ability, besides being able to make mother-bleeping space marines,

Three seeded terrans for season 1? If I remember correctly it was only Maru.

Ten out of 28 were terran in the end though, so 35% in total.

For season 2 it's five plus the three you mentioned for a total of eight, which is 27%.

Well, this is interesting. Here are the statistics for the GSL Season 2 qualifiers from Aligulac:

PvT 76–34 (69.09%)
PvZ 43–55 (43.88%)
TvZ 29–42 (40.85%)

Source: http://aligulac.com/results/events/110098-GSL-2020-Season-2/

Seems like Korean Protoss have figured out a new meta against Korean Terran.

10 of 28 season 1 terran
8 of 28 season 2 terran
18/56 = 32.14% actual number
19/56 = 33.93% if 1 more had qualified

Quick, spam blizzard, terran so under-represented.

Look you Take Stats from a qualifier that Misses 3 of the top terrans while Missing None of the top zergs and tosses (still Not ranking parting as a top toss rn not convinced yet). Obviously terrans will perform worse. I don't get what you try to achieve with this post terran is not weak right now (also Not op imo but w/e).

It's not completely out of nowhere, he's played in online cups and Code S qualifiers for a few years. Recently, he made it to a Kung Fu cup final where he took a game off Inno. He's joined Team GP so we should be seeing him in the next season of GTC as well (assuming we get one).

Now, if this Mondo character had qualified, that would truly be ridiculous

Congrats to Astrea, some hard work and a long road has paid off with a GSL berth. After the upsets in Season 1 Ro24, I will not be surprised if almost anyone advances.

Cuddlebear convinced me Astrea is a god, now with him in code S, I'm sure this is Astrea's year.
