Maybe it's overconfidence. He just assumes he will win against average players and doesn't really prepare mentally or play his best. I don't know I'm just taking a guess, but I'm certainly happy that he's doing as bad as he is. He deserves it for what he did to Savior.

Bisu still have his mechanics and everything. But his decision making and game sense have been down by SO much. He needs to be more 'ballsy' like the game of his vs Yarnc, he need to harass like crazy instead of playing standard. And this:

I can't say I'm glad that Bisu has fallen to mediocre... I really hate seeing anyone go from good to bad...but I'm too sympathetic, I guess.



but man, all those BISU OMG <333<3<3 threads were so annoying back when he was dominating...at least they're gone >>



go Stork!

Guys, predictability or not, he's just been playing sloppy and effortless. That's basically all, he's in a slump, maybe he just gave up or doesn't feel like playing. SKT1 need a really strong zerg and protoss player now, or they will be sh it deep soon.
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

Simply put: Bisu has been figured out. No longer does he win the extra 10% of his games just because of build orders. He also isn't in top shape anymore, therefor is no longer a starcraft-god with 70%+ but a mere mortal with ~60%.

How is it that someone can dominate pro-sports around the world for 15-20 years (ala, Cal Ripken, Michael Jordan, Dan Marino, etc.), yet, the top players in SC only last for a few years at most.

In the former cases, their sport is far more demanding. The difference is the training and lifestyle regiments. SC players have little to no freedom. Anyone doing the same thing 14-16 hours a day 6-7 days a week for years will get burnt out. It's sort of sad, really. There is literally no need to play that much. If the player wants to, then they'll play on their off-time, much like many pro-players today train year round. However mandating that strict regiment to everyone is debilitating.

I doubt this will change in Korea, hence why I am hopeful that SC II will be picked up in NA and EU and become as major a sport as it is in S.Korea.

Is this what has happened to Bisu? Most likely. Can anyone honestly tell me that it is harder to play SC than it is to play professional Soccer, Football, Baseball, Hockey?

I hope Korea changes the way they treat their players ;/

I am baffled by the people claiming to know about Bisu's mindset. "Oh, it's his mindset!" or "He's struggling to find motivation!". Seriously? None of you guys have a clue as to what he is thinking or going through, because you don't KNOW HIM. I do not following the Korean SCBW scene, but I know for a fact that everyone who has posted comments like the ones I referred to... have never even spoken with the guy. You're basing your comments off an interview every 6 months and watching him play.

The people actually commenting on his play and what IN GAME is causing him to lose are spot on. The people commenting about his mindset entering games... you are just using a filler excuse to explain something you lack information about.

Somehow I don't think Bisu's slump is due to being overworked. Probably the opposite actually.

I'm pretty sure Bisu was a dominating player because he was one of the hardest working ones

If you watch his recent games, they truly show standard, safe and robotic play, nothing like how Bisu truly played during his peak. PLaying super-safe against go.go was his doom. In game 1, he could have gone for a DT drop, reavers. All of this would have punished the super-greedy build go.go used (was it 1 fact double expand?). He needs to show more ballsy play; harassing in multiple fronts like he did vs Yarnc.

Humm, always seemed the opposite to me.
