What are the chances that Kespa will sack the coach and bring in someone else? If they did, even though for the better, it'll still cause some turmoil and further instability with the team. I just don't see it happening. They also lack the funds to hire other coaches and players, you'd have to have people volunteering to be practice partners/coach. As for sending out the rookies, that's something that can be done, but I feel like Coach Ju is a little stubborn. He might be basing everything all on the in house ranking, which is why I think he keeps sending Sea to play against a protoss (he might be doing very well against P inside the team), or maybe he's just bad and other coaches are exploiting him, I don't know. This is the only thing I feel (sending out rookies) that can be remedied immediately. As for not having a sponsor, there's definitely mounting pressure there, but that's going to remain until they start doing better, it's like a horrible cycle. I'm running out of optimism. So I can't help but feel like nothing is going to change and that they'll continue their downfall :/ On January 11 2012 00:12 figq wrote: Lack of spirit, if you ask me. There's no real sense of comradeship in these players from what I can gather. I can't imagine how their practice sessions are like, but probably not going as well as is normal for a major team. From the tidbits of info we get and the twitter pictures, I get the feeling that the players meld together nicely, but maybe that's not the same as comradeship. | ||

Losing. It's a shame that they do have so few heads to talk and work strategy though. I'll give you that. Their team is incredibly small and they're hard-pressed (that is my word of the day apparently). | ||

even in other professional sports, players tend to need some time to adapt to their team (look at football. torres hasnt adapted to chelsea after 1 year). team 8 is a whole new team, so every single player has to adapt. i hope thats pretty much the reason, as it would mean that they will start performing well soon. but who knows | ||

Park's outburst and protests and bind FBB, Hyuk, Flash, Zero, and FBH to chairs with signs planted at the front entrance that say "IN THE NAME OF BROOD WAR" and practice with every single one of Team 8 until they are all resuscitated in a massive fulmination of BW inspiritment and invigoration. No STX was harmed in the making of this post. | ||

The games that Jaedong has dropped has all been to different timings - especially the two games against terran. Maybe he needs a coaching staff to help him with keeping up with the metagame? | ||

BW is what they know. Here's the thing guys. We have an incredibly small sample size. Bo5's leave very and I mean very small margin of error. Sure, you can say guys focus on one map and prepare for certain match-ups all you want. That hasn't changed, but Team 8 is spread incredibly thin. With regards to Jaedong, He really hasn't impressed me at all this season even with his win against Mind as he's playing incredibly risky and other players really can take advantage of that. There are a lot of holes that need to be patched up. That is for sure. | ||
