This player has been participating regularly and is relatively new to the sc2sea scene.
What he has to say :
I accept the privilege of being a wildcard.
Right now I'm just a no-name player, but after this tournament I hope to change that.
I am currently following a rigorous practice schedule in order to achieve my goal of becoming a Progamer.
I understand that I am merely an ignorant high school student with a silly dream, but this is the only thing I excel at.
You only get a handful of chances at becoming the best at something. This is my chance, this is my story.

Ok enough of jokes and slamming, this guy's pretty good from what I know. Managed to take games off Crimson (can't remember if he won the Bo3) before. Anyone who meets this guy is probably gonna have a hard time
I think this is actually a pretty balanced GPD cup to be...
So.. presenting the , we have...
Wildcard #2 :
Ironlung
This player has also been participating regularly and is relatively quiet, lurking around on sc2sea but definitely has a colourful personality (see what he did below to his own writeup)
What he has to say :
In a tournament and community full of Aussies and New Zealanders (especially in the GPD scene), it's time to remind people that SEA includes other countries too. #RepresentingTheRealSEA
Ready to get PROTOSSED?

This is no stranger to the sc2sea scene. I mean, who do we call if we need some popcorn and of course, who can forget that famous chin of his
What he has to say :
Firstly I’d like to thank the admins for the opportunity to play in the GPD cup #2.
Now given I’m playing and looking at the current Players, this should be an interesting bracket and hoping the gods are in my favour #kingofwalkovers
Can’t really think of anything else to say but cheer for me
And ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ノ Raise your Chinsヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ノ

We have received some unfortunate news.. tSu is unable to play because sick
Get better soon!
However, it also creates an opportunity for another wildcard! This player is no stranger to the scene and he actually qualified for GPD Cup #1 but was unable to make it on the actual day.
Wildcard #4 :
Spook
I don't think I can forget that incredible game on King Sejong vs Ravenflames in that epic finals. A strong terran, I'm sure his many fans want to see him go far into the brackets.
What he has to say :
After I failed to qualify for this week's GPD cup I was worried about the future of my career, however my career as a GPD pro has progressed thanks to the generosity of mGGNemesis. I have been practising very hard and I hope to play well for all my fans. @mcaspook Peace and Friendship my friends.
