wrooooooooooong.


it's because he lost to stork but didn't get to experience jvz


wrong, he played jaedong in group stage.

But he did say that ZvP is his worst matchup.

I don't want to imagine what Bogus and Flash would do to kolll.. Seriously Flash is fucking insane. He is demolishing Korean progamers left and right (not right now, but not too far in the past, he's still amazing though). What do you think he'd do to kolll? Not to mention he already won a starleague etc..

Kolll has great potential. I referred to Flash Bogus and baby cause they are considered the wunderkinds of starcraft. Kolll has no chance at this point but who know if this kid gets a proper korean training...

Playing for only 2 years shows that he is really gifted for strategy games.

Let's not forget that he used to play WC3. It still adds to his experience.

I really said it lots of times now, but too make sure no one misunderstands: I do like kolll, he has shown great and impressive things YET
It has nothing to do with talent. Back in the days, you started on battle.net with less good practice partners. Today you can start on iccup and bam, you will only face better players when you start and your skill will boost insanely fast.

He played at least 8000 Games in his 2 years, if not more and started at a high level of gaming (compared to battle.net). Thats why he's already that good. Ofcourse you still need a bit of talent, but if you think his potential is so great, it makes no sense that he's still stuck with A-/ low A maybe. I know that the skill difference is insane from holding an A- rank and holding an A rank, but still, that would define the word talent for me.

even if you are completely right that kolll has a good environment to increase his level of play, you cant deny the fact that the kid has something. you speak of 8000 games - thats really a great dedication, and like the progamers say time and time again the key is to practice 24/7. If it looks so easy to like start playing like mad and climb up the ICCup rank, why kolll was that one kid who became 4th in the WCG?

There is always something more than pure skill and talent, but still the accomplishment of Kolll is amazing

This is like the worst argument in the world. If things are so damn easy now, why aren't there more players like kolll. Oh wait, because hes a prodigy.

I feel a burn to ret in this interview. "Players that go to Korea are too old" He is probably envious.

I admire the dedication and the hard work he puts into his play. The results come with his immense effort and the 4th place (WCG) finish shows through his hard work.

GW Kolll keep it up!!
