What's ret going to do? I don't think hoping for lucky draws is going to cut it, if he wants to make it he should be so good he can win a bo3 against anyone entering. If his opponents are good, he has to be better. Get better and show them you deserve the courage license, ret.

LOL great advice. I guess ret will have to change his plan of staying in a foreign conutry, not practicing, and hoping to run into 7 newbies every month. Great advice.

At least nobody lagged this time.

Seriously though, Ret's growing stronger with his every attempt at the pro license. If he doesn't give up I'm sure it'll show in his results. Altough I doubt he'll win courage any time soon, it's nowhere near as easy as some people make it seem. Ret might be considered THE top foreigner (along with Idra), but in Korea, skillwise, there are hundreds of Rets

he took a game in his worst matchup off of a "semi-pro"(?) south korean zerg...
i'd like to see him get a ZvP next time (if there is one) to boost his confidence before he has to zvz

Ya.

I knew something was wrong with estro when nony bounced so bloody quickly.... and idra the most monitone gamer of all time was giddy about leaving and not just playing on iccup everyday.

Ya... and i bet it's even worse for ret because of the initial misunderstanding about replays.

the fuck?

Ret should go and talk with the management about this imo. its not like eSTRO is offering him food and a place to live for him to just play on iccup..

God damn Ret don't be another NonY please, go the IdrA way. =]
That means no women and thus no happiness, just constant practice and hopefully making it big.. god the progamer life sounds so harsh. :/

Yeah I must say, hate him or love him, IdrA I'm sure has had to endure a lot of stupid shit while living in Korea.

I really hope ret is able to pull through in the same way IdrA has. There are simply not enough 'white guys' tearing it up in Korea, and while this may be a rocky start for ret, I really hope he powers through and keeps his head held high.

I honestly hope he doesnt read what igotmyown wrote. Stuff like that can really get to you when he is probably playing SC countless hours every day.

Keep it up buddy, we're all rooting for you.

After seeing ret watching Dexter during practice hours, imo this will soon be over. Hope I'm wrong though.
