To those who aren't familiar with sports, team captain and team best player have nothing to do with each other. They could be the same person, but the criteria's completely different for both.

I thought Killer would have been made captain.

Yeah, there's no way that would be happening with JD on the team.

Jaehoon seems like the logical choice, probably the worst player out of the 6 reserved ones and the oldest as well. No idea about his personality though but I'll take coach's word for it.


When it comes to non-televised games, Jaehoon's very good. He knows his stuff as well as anyone. He sweats buckets in the booth and have lots of trouble dealing with pressure. But that doesn't take away from the fact that in a team setting, he can bring a lot to the table.

And we definitely need to see more Jaehoon's arbiter play. He's already recalled his army two spaces to the right. He's also recalled one single observer. He's already lots gazillion arbiters to turrets. He needs to invent more ways to fail recalls.
Meh

In the past, because of his lack of confidence, he tried things like dyeing his hair, ear studs, spectacles etc. He doesn't need those now.

I don't know what you're talking about. Clearly our Captain, the mighty Hyuk, was chosen because he's the best player on SKT.

I almost managed to finish typing that sentence with a straight face.


Anyway, congrats to Jaehoon! Be a good leader and hyung, okay?

Don't think so. They've been friends for many years. Besides which Jaehoon is a few months older.

They were clanmates in n.die_ I believe, so there probably already is a bromance...

Jaehoon is captain because he's the oldest plain and simple. Best choice imo.

Im an avid SC2 player, but to see a team like this unfold this late into BW's life is heartwarming. Keep it up BW folks.
