Of course Dongraegu will rise.

But he'll only rise once he mans up and starts practicing like a Kespa player.


Overrated.
KeSPA players dropping like flies in Season 5 of GSL.
The only one that got anywhere was Rain.

Plus Star2 is very different than BroodWar.
Overall Strategy is more important than practicing raw mechanics.

Besides, DRG practices a ton, especially close to big matches.
I've heard that he uses a lot of his "free time" for laddering instead of rest.




Yeah, but they're dropping only in Code S after less than 6 months of concentrated training, and of course we already see the future in the form of Rain, Flash, Roro, etc....

All these amazing players got to where they are not through abstract notions of innate talent but by a concentrated willpower that centered on becoming great.

That's what seperates the Jaedongs from the Hyuks, the Storks from the Pures. It's the unaldulatred desire to suceede, and the willingness to commit yourself to it like a madman.

Do not try to ever, ever try to fucking justify a lack of proper training. I love DRG just as much as anyone, and I will always root for him. But he is never going to win another GSL if he doesn't man the fuck up and realize he needs to commit himself like its the oppurtunity of a lifetime.

And I suppose you know what proper training looks like?
Are you a trained professional?
The arrogance to come into a cheer thread and tell a pro-player what to do
especially when he was just an OSL finalist.

I'm sure DRG will know what's best for him.
He has a good team and coaching staff.
It's his career, we should trust that he knows what he's doing, considering he's literally the most successful player in 2012 by record.

That's not to say you're not entitled to your own opinion.
Just go write about it elsewhere instead of shitting up our cheer thread!

TL fans are the best fans.

Dongraegu has a lot of TL fans.

Because TL fans appreciate good games. Games like the GSTL finals versus MMA or Blizzard cup versus MMA or GSL finals versus Genius. It's not if he wins, but how he plays.

Now with Code-S RO32, DRG gets it the hard way again. But we, his fans, cheer for him. For the undisputable best zerg in 2012. For the guy who shows how the swarm should be played.
You don't choose to play zerg. The zerg choose you.

Gogo DRG!

You're the player who made me race switch to zerg after I watched your games. I first met you at IEM NY, I saw that sick comeback from fruitdealer and I was captivated. The passion that you show out of games is something that is always a pleasure to witness. You've been the guy who has been carrying the zerg torch every since Nestea passed it on. Keep pushing yourself to greater goals, all your hard work will pay off!

Hey DRG,

You Win games, you lose them, it doesn't matter
What's most important is if your enjoying it / having fun
The hate may come to you, but it's just something that's stopping you
The love may come, it's something that keeping you
I've seen you battle MMA, you didn't give up
I've seen you battle MKP, you still didn't give up and had it in your hands
Don't give up, stay put and keep pushing
You'll make it to goodness
