With the implementation of the WCS system, the Up/Down matches have had a minor change. While the Up/Downs were normally comprised of the round 2 and round 3 losers from Code A (and sometimes foreigner seeds awarded by GomTV), this season there will be two additional spots awarded from a special tournament. Thus, there will be 30 Up/Down participants in total, which probably means six groups of five players.
The players eligible for the tournament are all players eliminated in the first round of Code A/Challenger League, as well as players eliminated in the Challenger League qualifiers (i.e, Code B players).
117 players participated in this tournament so far, and games from the Ro16 onward will be broadcast via replay on the eSF's channel (twitch.tv/esf_en) by GSL caster Gisado.
The results up to the point of the broadcast for Day 1 can be seen here: Korean Bracket

He usually casts Code A on Korean stream.

Well his bracket is actually definitely a little bit weaker than the other one so I think there is a really great chance for him to do it. Jjakji is one of my favorites for a good long time and its a shame that he couldn't make it back in through code B over this time but he has been doing noticeable work over the past year in GSTL and qualified for the last MLG so his condition isn't bad. I think if I was running a team he would be the first player I would go after and id be incredibly disappointed if EG or TL never tried to sign him for pro league because I definitely think he is better than Alive and depending on his condition better than or equal to Taeja.
He usually casts Code A on Korean stream.
Wow so he is casting in English that is interesting I wonder what his level is like.
