I don't understand the point of this. You play for 8 hours for only 1 day? Please explain how this has anything to do with Koreans.

Do it during the day, with regular breaks (every 1-2h take 10 min off, stretch). Take time for a decent lunch. Have water and fruit for snacks. Use the night to sleep.

You have to realize this is not supposed to be some sort of prolonged gaming session but work, fortunately work with something you like.


The question is, can one practice like a Korean, therefore we have to adopt it into our lifestyle = Full time day job or school, I have a full time day job, working starting in 7 hours. Can I still train like a Korean? We'll see.


2-1 so far.

I'll post replays to evaluate progress.

isnt it obvious no?
they dont have jobs they just play the game

yeah someone can practice like a korean the shits not difficult, i dont even know why this thread exists

sit and play the game for 8 hours a day with regular breaks and exercise like they do shits not fucking hard.

Its hard, believe me. If you have pressure to practice so you can take on people on tournament, imagine you've been practice your ass off for 2-3 months in preparation for..lets say GSL code A qualifier and you lost 1st row to some cheese or even worse, you just lost out right cos the other guy out played you so hard. That will be big hit.
Only the selected few with so much determination will have the will to keep going and going. I am sure as hell I can't even someone gives me 1 million dollars.

A normal daily job is much easier to cope with than playing games for 12 hours a day and try to win the tournament. Thats why I admire progamers.

Don't be so negative bro

I'm not being negative, if he wants to do it all power to him.

This isnt about GSL its about the OP and others wanting to do a practice schedule like a Korean, and as I said the shits not too hard to do.

I used to do it on BW all the time, and ive done it on other games too(playing all day with breaks etc)

ah, I got what you meant here. Fair enough.
For me, the secret of Korea success in RTS(they are quite success in War3 and Age of Empires as well) is not only their training schedule, there is something else, but I don't know what the hell it is :D. Maybe a healthy population of players than play RTS so they got more talents. Korean ladder has about 500k people while the whole SEA ladder has only less than half of that. Korea has a population of about 40 millions, while SEA has like 400 millions people? O_O.

The secret is, they practice builds and work on their mechanics, Anyone can do the same thing if they put in as much effort.

By this i mean they look up the builds get the timings together and then practice them over and over

But you wouldn't be able to do this with a full time job. Thats what the thread is about. Can a regular person from NA practice as much as a korean. Why is this so hard for you to understand? 8-10 hours/day job + 8 hours trainning is already 16-18 hours out of your day. Easy you say? how about you try it.

When you said "energy drinks" you already failed. You're doing this during the night and it's already wrong.
Do it during the day, with regular breaks (every 1-2h take 10 min off, stretch). Take time for a decent lunch. Have water and fruit for snacks. Use the night to sleep.

You have to realize this is not supposed to be some sort of prolonged gaming session but work, fortunately work with something you like.


The question is, can one practice like a Korean, therefore we have to adopt it into our lifestyle = Full time day job or school, I have a full time day job, working starting in 7 hours. Can I still train like a Korean? We'll see.


2-1 so far.

I'll post replays to evaluate progress.

sit and play the game for 8 hours a day with regular breaks and exercise like they do shits not fucking hard.



... Exactly, this thread is about if you can get same trainning in with a job. What don't you understand?

Its hard, believe me. If you have pressure to practice so you can take on people on tournament, imagine you've been practice your ass off for 2-3 months in preparation for..lets say GSL code A qualifier and you lost 1st row to some cheese or even worse, you just lost out right cos the other guy out played you so hard. That will be big hit.
Only the selected few with so much determination will have the will to keep going and going. I am sure as hell I can't even someone gives me 1 million dollars.

A normal daily job is much easier to cope with than playing games for 12 hours a day and try to win the tournament. Thats why I admire progamers.

Don't be so negative bro

I'm not being negative, if he wants to do it all power to him.

This isnt about GSL its about the OP and others wanting to do a practice schedule like a Korean, and as I said the shits not too hard to do.

I used to do it on BW all the time, and ive done it on other games too(playing all day with breaks etc)

ah, I got what you meant here. Fair enough.
For me, the secret of Korea success in RTS(they are quite success in War3 and Age of Empires as well) is not only their training schedule, there is something else, but I don't know what the hell it is :D. Maybe a healthy population of players than play RTS so they got more talents. Korean ladder has about 500k people while the whole SEA ladder has only less than half of that. Korea has a population of about 40 millions, while SEA has like 400 millions people? O_O.

The secret is, they practice builds and work on their mechanics, Anyone can do the same thing if they put in as much effort.

By this i mean they look up the builds get the timings together and then practice them over and over


But you wouldn't be able to do this with a full time job. Thats what the thread is about. Can a regular person from NA practice as much as a korean. Why is this so hard for you to understand? 8-10 hours/day job + 8 hours trainning is already 16-18 hours out of your day. Easy you say? how about you try it.


Can you stop talking? did you read my post "No you cant do it"

Or did you just decide to spurt out some stupid bullshit without reading it first?

I'll even quote it since you seem to have a hard time reading

Let me lay down simple math for you. You take a single 8 work day and add in another 8 hours of starcraft training. Now for the math. 8+8=16 16 hours out of 24 in a day. Now again with the math. 24-16=8 Now that is 8 hours left in the day to sleep, eat, and use the bathroom. So the answer is a big N to the O that is NO you can't understand now?

There was a post from Liquid'Tyler a couple of years ago, he made a very good post about training, but i can find it . Remember to not sacrifice sleep and body/heath (try to get like 1-2 hours of exercises for body, running, gym etc.) Also try to not go over 10 hours of playing. Like 8 hours for playing and then 2 hours for watching replays and VODs in the evening to learn form your mistakes and learn from the pros. Its really efficient if you follow this kind of rules.

Oh, now i see you wanted to play for 8 hours for one day. Forget what i said lol

Was his exact tl name liquid'nony before liquid'tyler? I'm having trouble finding it too. Whenever I search for practice and put liquid'nony or liquid'tyler in the author box it ignores the author and just searches all posts/threads for 'practice'.

It's not an apostrophe in his name, it's "`", whatever that is called ;d. Liquid`Tyler will find all his posts, even ones he made before he changed his name, I think

Thanks works now! You're right it does find all his posts. There's some good stuff in there along with some common training schedules of the koreans. Basically they play 10+ hrs a day with a one hour break for dinner.
