GSL Super Tournament 1

[image loading]


AfreecaTV have announced the brackets and schedule for the first GSL tournament of the year: Super Tournament #1. The total prize money has been increased from $25,600 in 2021 to $30,500 in 2022 (the total 2022 prize money for GSL has yet to be revealed).

While the first Super Tournament of 2021 awarded GSL Code S seeds to the top four players, no such information has been announced at this time.

GSL with the un-explainable seeding again, how Zest Rogue Maru and Trap on one side, and the other side only got Dark and Cure?
Edit: And again with the shitty schedule, if Rogue, Zest or Maru play all the way to the Grand Final of Last Chance, they wont have enough rest for day 1 of the Super Tournament.

Dark, Cure and Solar who isn't worse than Zest.
I don't think it gets much better without cheating

I think the bracket is pretty ok.

Semi finals probably of Rogue vs Maru and Solar/Cure vs Dark. Trap has been slumping so I think it's a fairly reasonable bracket

Trap will NEVER win a GSL (outside of ST)

Man, they do not go easy on the returnees. Still, looks like quite a few good matches.

It's a stretch to say it's unexplainable. Dream beat out Rogue and Cure beat out Maru in the qualifiers so they got better seeding is what appears to have happened. Although it is still a little odd, you would think it would be 1 seed vs 2 seed the whole way so there must be some different seeding going on.

Although it is still a little odd, you would think it would be 1 seed vs 2 seed the whole way so there must be some different seeding going on.

Except that the seeding was supposed to be based on past GSL season record, not the qualifier. Dark Cure and Rogue each won a code S. Trap won 2 Super tournament and a code S 2nd place. Maru got 2nd place in GSL and Super Tournament. Zest got 2nd place in code S, Zoun also got 2 2nd place in ST as well. So the seeding should be split to reflect that.
Assuming that all the Ro16 result are following the seeding (higher seed should win), that means you would have in the Ro.8 Rogue-Zest, Maru-Trap, Dark-Dream, Cure-Solar. That left bracket is stacked, while the right bracket is pretty favorable to the higher seeds, not to sneeze on Dream or Solar but they havent done much in GSL last year.
To me, this looked like bunch of "voodoo" magic or drawing number from a hat to be honest, almost like no seeding and everything is completely random.

Interesting, 3 mirrors, 2 PvPs, crazy. I wonder if we see a Protoss champ.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Is this the time for Classic to finally beat Zest?
Will Bunny pull another rabbit out of the hat and make a deep run, starting vs Rogue who is probably going to practice hard for Katowice?
Tough luck, Armani.
Trap has shown great PvP. herO is showing great PvP. Will herO beat Trap in a top level PvP only to get crushed when the match up isn't PvP anymore?
Dream and ByuN have both shown good games but with some very questionable positional play in TvT. I guess ByuN will take it in the end.
I've seen one great GuMiho game since his return. Dark is showing great games on the regular. Good luck, towel Terran! You'll need it.
Solar has a really high floor in his fluctuations. He never really plays badly. Creator has been impressive in the last few games of his I've seen. Most impressed have I been by his PvZ. Solar vs Creator can be amazing. I don't know who I'll think will win there.
Cure TvP was great in the latest code S. Zoun is not as impressive. Maybe I'll get surprised.

My guess for round 1 is:
Zest>Classic
Rogue>Bunny
Maru>Armani
Trap>herO
Dream<ByuN
Dark>GuMiho
Solar=Creator
Cure>Zoun

Round 2:
Zest<Rogue
Maru>Trap
ByuN<Dark
Solar/Creator<Cure

Round 3:
Rogue>Maru
Dark>Cure

Round 4:
Rogue>Dark

Oh crap it could be yet another "early" Maru vs Trap. Though I guess Trap did not look as fearsome lately?
herO is in good shape so he might very well beat Trap anyways.

Hoping for a Zest victory especially if he can't go to Katowice

Hey, Rogue and Dark are not in the same part of the bracket for once ! A finals between them could be exciting

Agreed. If only Maru was also on the other side... a Rogue vs. Dark or Maru finals would be great. Alas

Zest winning Super Tournament would be amazing.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.
