With Innovation down 0:1 in code A Group G, we are likely to see a GSL with fewest terran in code S. TVT is highly unlikely to happen in the first GSL code S of 2014. There would be a lot of PVZs as you can see from the chart below. We may still have a Terran champion in the end: Maru, the TVP master.

Edit: Innovation to code B, unfortunately.

Worth pointing out a lot of good terrans aren't playing in this (taeja, bomber, polt, jjakji, MMA and more). Also terrans are doing quite well in Proleague right now.

Also another 6 terrans, 3 of which are in 2 terran groups, are still to play. There's definitely a sharp decline in terran representation but it's not just maru and bbyong. Probably.

Kind of weird considering that people claim that protoss shine in bo1 formats, huh?
Should be the other way around then, terran performing better in GSL and protoss performing better in Proleague.

Taeja, very likely considering his latest results.
Bomber, polt, this is already very arguable.
Jikaji, MMA ? Watch their latest games, they even lost to Foreigner Protoss.

So this makes it +0-2 Terrans AT MAX, and supposing (for some weird reasons) that all T staid in Korea.
Besides, your claim is unscientific since it is completly unveryfiable.
"If these players plaid in Korea, they would probably beat good Korean P and get in code S".

The stake is a lot higher in GSL. We see protosses do weird builds and lose in proleague but then proceed to look very solid in code A (IM protosses, Zest ...). They might have not tried very hard in the team league.

Considering Terran and Zerg Dwarf Protoss in GSL victories, A season with alot of Protoss is a welcomed changed
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.

It's late, YH is already in code S, he wanted to sleep. Progamer don't treat every event equally.

Maybe its time to realize that PvT cannot be "every Protoss best match up" for the reason that its their best match up, but rather that its favored towards Protoss in the current state.

Q: Which race received the most 'WHAT'S COOOOOOL' treatment from Dustin Browder?
A: Protoss

Q: Which race is most broken from a game design perspective?
A: Protoss

Conclusion: Dustin Browder is a fucking idiot who has no business designing games.

Extra: Dustin Browder, David Kim, and Jay Wilson are in charge of Heroes of the Storm development. Buyers Beware!!!

jjakji would have been in Code S after being in the top 8 of the previous GSL. He forfeited the spot to move to EU. If he wanted to be in Code S he would have been.

Things get even worse if you look at the names.
What i mean is look at the achievements of protoss players who qualified and compare them to zergs.
Not to mention terrans who didnt qualify.

yeah, everyone knows his name is Jumanji.

RIP in peace terran. obviously it's not GSL's fault but i'm not sure i'll watch too much of this season considering the race i enjoy watching most is almost not represented and the least fun race to watch has huge representation. zerg is fine as long as it's not mass ZvZ though.
