Could this have something to do with Samsung slumping lately? Coaching spending too much time with her fiance and neglecting her players? Or maybe the boys found out and all lost motivation. It wouldn't be surprising if he told her team quite a while before telling the general public, right?

Most of these coachs can only really do 1 thing for the players and thats tell them to play more.

Tbh getting to that level you don't need any coaching as you already know the in's and out fo the game and its only dealing with pressure that is a problem for any of these players. I would like to see any coach tell Bisu or Jaedong to go and practice xyz strat or technique; not gonna happen ever.

Admitedly the very new players 'might' not know counters to xyz strat but all they need to do is practice & talk with their teamm8's and thats about it, any half decent player wouldn't need to be told they'd find out themselves what they need to do just by watching there own replays and others.

Imo coachs=overrated as this is a 1v1 game not football or something.
You have no idea how important coaches are in SC. As an MBC fan, I know first hand how important they are. The current SKT Coach use to be the assistant coach of MBC when they won the proleague. Him and Coach Ha created a wonderful training environment and turned POS from a "piece of shit" team into MBCGame Hero coasting Starleague Champion July, Pusan, Sea, Light, Bisu, Shark etc... They were easily the deepest team in the tournament and they thoroughly deserved their win. They went on to nurture Bisu into 2 MSL wins and a Silver (and an OSL bronze). They had their shit down.

Now what? In 2008 SKT was at the bottom of the rankings (literally 9th place). They fired their coaching staff and hired Coach Park to be the lead coach (and oov/kingdom to be assistants) and they also bought Bisu off MBC. Coach Park has literally turned the team around and created an excellent practice environment for the team and SKT1 is now in first place. The players haven't changed (that much) but the coaching staff did - and thats why SKT is now much better off.

MBC's practice has turned to shit since Ha left and the new guy took over. The team is a wreck and the players do not like the practice atmosphere - and it painfully shows in their games. MBC is a joke of a team now.

There are other examples; Coach Cho of CJ is one (master at all kill format), and January is another.


I kind of think this proves both points coachs are good and coachs are bad for players. The coachs forcing bad practice practices are bad for player, coachs which allow for the best practice practices are good.

But I don't see how these players where not capable of this already, other then enforcing a schedule on players appropriately to what there upcoming games are I don't see what 1v1 players in general lack if they where good enough to get themselves good enough to be accepted into a pro team.

No player ever says anything other then praise for there coachs as they can't say anything else regardless so I don't see why ppl think so highly of coachs for a 1v1 sport other then taking some of the research/arrangement burdens away from a player.

I just think its all about the individual players regardless of which coach they have. A good player of a 1v1 game knows everything about the game and their own game and can only use summaries about opponents to save themselves having to watch replays of there opponents from coachs though I guess that in it self is quite a valuable function.

Both my posts sound like i'm just h8'ing on coachs when I don't feel that is my intention i'm just curious what a coach brings to a player who is playing a 1v1 game beyond what traits they should already have.

Not so much in Eastern cultures. Maybe a little long, but we easily spend 2-3 years in a close relationship before deciding to marry.

Maybe that's why we don't divorce as much

Yeah, Koreans are a lot different then Americans in the dating department. Americans would date for about probably 2 months, get married, then probably get divorced. That's why there are so many divorced parents, but you would rarely find any divorced Korean parents because they would date for a long time, 2 years or even 5 years. That's probably because Koreans are always looking for serious relationships instead of dates that some Americans would get just to fuck the girlfriends and then break up with them the next day.

No offense to Americans.

Length of dating usually has nothing to do with country(unless you're in an arranged-marriage culture) and everything to do with age. Older people like to take it slow, while younger ones rush into marriages.

The replies of these "3 years is really long" people reflect the age group of TL.net more so than where people are from.

Westerners date for 2-3 years before marriage as well...if not longer because theres major commitment issues ingrained in western consciousness...

Exactly. My mom and dad when they got married were 18 and 20, and got married within a year of dating. My sister has been dating her boyfriend for two years and marriage is only recently begun bubbling in the back of her mind, and shes turning 30 in February. If anything getting married young is drastically less common now a days than ever before, and getting married mid to late twenties after a long relationship is the norm.

Alright, here's my 2 cents. Coach aren't only important to just provide mental support etc etc (like the previous before me said) They are also to perform the management duties in relation to the various aspects of the team (Shelter management, Cost planning, Transportation to and fro their destinations, representative of the team to their sponsors, dealing with a tourney's registration, procedures, in other words administrative duties which would tax a player <- which would definitely be given if there was no coach, THUS reducing practice time, increase stress levels and overall reduce performance.

A coach don't only tell them to play more but when to stop (When close to overwork stage) and also guides the players to learn and understand how to perform in interviews, public relations and various other elements not within the actual game. Coaches also become the morale bank during a match. If their players start to lose, the coach must bring up a confident front in order to boost morale and thus reduce any damage done mentally (<Not physical mental but u get the gist) before the rest of the upcoming matches.

PS: Of course they always say praise because the coach HELPs them with daily management (Unless its really horrible and they are forced to xD)

Btw congrats January =D.
