Hopefully sOs has a good result in this tournament. Haven’t watched his games yet so not sure about his current form

Military service starting?

That is most likely, I would say 5% chance he is going beast mode and hiding strategy entirely until EWC. but unlikely.

Maybe sOs is really motivated to get that EWC money, 1 more WC for his career. NERD CHILLS. I wonder if it has anything to do with Protoss seemingly doing better this patch!

Is anyone thinking about going to KR to watch GSL...? For Season 1 especially everything is condensed into 2 weeks, AND it's all live at the studio?? Seems like one of the best times to visit KR if you want to specifically watch GSL, without having to pay for lodging for 2-3 months

I gotta wonder if sOs is making a serious comeback, or he just did a lot better than expected during one of his 'random' comebacks (he's taken some sporadic shots at the GSL qualifiers in the last few years, but never made the cut).

sOs returning is certainly awesome. I am a bit disappointed with the small player pool and rushed schedule, but I understand they're under time/money constraints.

Still many good names in it, looking forward to it!
I used to organize tournaments for ESL Italy and referee Go4SC2s, WCSs, and IEMs for ESL SC2.

I forgot that sOs got super close to qualifying for what was it, IEM 2024 I think? Wasn't he like 2-3 or something in the last set? Something like that... he made some upsets but didn't quite make it. Then i was surprised/sad that he didn't enter the GSL qualifiers after that. Maybe took break or lost motivation. But regained it now, maybe he likes the patches or smth.

Also since it's potentially the last year of GSL, i guess even if players like sOs were retiring, they want to experience the thrill of it all while they have the opportunity.

Maybe sOs wants to win a GSL, win EWC 2025, and become the GOAT

I do not know if the current patch is friendly to his style or not, but i doubt he can advance to next stage given there are two strong Zerg in Group A.
sOs is THE ONLY player I pay attention to

$o$ has his work cut out for him in this group, but if he manages to advance, I wouldn't be surprised if he can go all the way. I just have no idea of his current level, but players like Rogue and him always have a shot in high stakes, high pressure environments!

True true, sOs always had been weakest in PvZ. Though it seems to favor P a little in this patch if he can adapt

And true sOs and Rogue are the players who go for the $$$ haha. Especially sOs!

I can absolutely see a GSL miracle for sOs. There is no way in hell there is a Ryadh miracle in the cards though

DON'T GIVE ME HOPE I'M GETTING TOO EXCITED NOW

Hmm hmm, yes beating the likes of Serral and Clem would be quite a stretch...
funnily enough, I think sOs winning 1 single Code S would actually do quite enough to help his portfolio, whereas a 4th WC while it would be insane would still leave him with the "but no Code S!".

So, I'd be mighty happy if he finally wins a Code S, even in the end times !!
In a way, it'd also add to his longevity factor. To fizzle out in 2021, finally retire, and requalify and win a GSL in 2025 would be amazing. It's crazy that this guy won 3 WCs when he was like 19, 21, and 23. How young!! To experience the top of the world 3 times. I would like to hope that with his increased life experience and maturity, he might be able to muster a real threat this GSL, as long as he's motivated and wants to take it seriously of course.
