Looking forward to the GSL starting again. Even though it sucks for Americas, I'm happy that they dropped the early broadcast. It had become a bad fit now that progamers have to stay up all night to participate in online tournaments. | ||

Selfishly I hope they keep the 1830kst schedule for code S, 5 AM GSL always hurt | ||

It seems weird to me that 2 out of Cure, Byun, Dark, and PartinG wouldn't be in the group stages This is basically re-branding what used to be the Code S Round of 24 as 'Code A'. Not entirely sure why; lot more opportunity for major players to be unavoidably eliminated when the format is single-elim Bo5 instead of group stage. | ||

I worry that a fair number of these series will be onesided tbh, don't think this format is good for underdogs. Maru vs creator prime reunion. I dunno if they've played against each other since maru made creator cry in proleague Maru vs Creator is the saddest match I can think of. Maybe it's because I see Creator as a really tragic figure in general, but goddamn. Creator should get crushed. And by his former long-time teammate, who totally eclipsed him. | ||

Dude has always played with his heart on his sleeve, and that (plus staying with prime til the very end) hasn't always done him favors in terms of results, but it's always made him easy to root for. Would love to see creator get his moment in the sun after all these years. I think it's easy to forget on account of maru playing in 2010 season 1 that creator is not even six months older than him | ||

You will be happy now to see Dark or PartinG to get eliminated while someone like Percival or else advance just to get stomped on ro16? Bring old format back next season for good!!! It might be the last season it happens, the next one will have at least Stats, Zest and TY not being able to play; this format will make more sense with the upcoming wave of retirements. | ||

I'd say Dark will take it but Parting is no slouch, just because he hasn't had the most awesome of results lately doesn't mean he can't turn it on and play at a very very high level. | ||

Only premium cheese can bring you through a Bo5. We are talking about Pule cheese, the 600$/kg type made out of GOAT milk. Stinky and delicious. I can't wait to have a taste. | ||
