W T F I haven't heard anything that ridicilous. Top progamers would use their freetime practising then (if not, top10 would switch all the time becouse other players would practise more than them, that would lead to a point where gamers would have difficulties gaining fans-> progaming would be history). | ||

And older doesnt mean you suck more. Age has nothing to do with it. And practice is the reason Jaedong and Flash are where they are. The only reason Idra sux is cuz he's a foreigner. no its because hes an arrogant nerd, grrr was a foreigner and you cant compare him to idra bc HE ACCOMPLISHED THINGS. | ||

The way they get around this is "optional" practices. They're really not optional, they just look that way. You're also supposed to lift weights on your own and do other physical-fitness stuff "on your own time". I suspect pro-teams would do something similar. | ||

Idra is face raping man. He is finally beating pretty much everybody outside of korea which imo is a good sign that his level is rising .. | ||

These poor koreans are ruining their life and all that for what? a freaking video game? if KESPA limits practice time to say 5 hours, I doubt nothing would change much for progamers. Bisu Jaedong Flash would still dominate. But now everyone have more free time to do something else with their life instead of PLAY all day. this would also reward some of the old players like boxer who obviously cant play for 10+ hours a day everyday anymore. Foreigners should also benefit from this as well. Nony probably left korea because he doesnt want to play for 10+ hours a day. Progamers = Job. So basically you're telling them to limit practice time... but it's their JOB. | ||

It's a sport. Sure, its unhealthy in the long run. So is many other sports. If you want to be the best, get the cash and the fame you need to work for it. | ||

And they spent years playing all day long a game that will be obsolete in a few years , while not studying anything . I'm wondering what will they become later , I can see here TV shows like " Once I was a progamer , now I'm sleeping in the street" . I hontesly thing they're wasting their lives , even for all the love I've got for this game , and all the hours I did spend on it or watching these guys' vods. | ||

Go ahead, limit Bisu's practise time to 5-hours a day, while others can play twice as much. Let's see how long Bisu stays on top. And come on, Boxer has NEVER been as great on multitasking than the top players of these days. Actually Boxer is better than he was on his #1 times. | ||

All their expenses are paid for by the team sponsor and most of the money they make is probably getting saved up. And lots of the retired progamers end up casting or coaching, so its not like they don't get anything out of it. | ||
