There is a reason Jaedong and Flash are so good in GOM, while others just fail



Flash gets his ass served to him all the time....
even by GGPlay...

No-namers don't have to train for PL games while big names do. So players like Hul train solely for this game while Free has PL games and starleague qualifiers to train for.


Yeah, but flash, jaedong and bisu last season still reach the final


Starcraft is not a game where there are really natural skills in.
Practicing nets you the win. i believe that anybody can be good at it since it does not have physical requirements (train 8-10 hours a day on Iccup) and you can be pro too...

are you a troll?

fuck im tired of people saying asians are just better. koreans arent born better... im fucking asian and im saying that...


Their cultural environement gives them the opportunity to practice more than other people. A very talented foreigner with a lot of potential won't be given the same chances as an equally talented korean that gains fame withing his PC bang, then enters a good korean clan and is eventaully picked up by a proteam.

True, but all of these 3 players are natural talents.

The thing I wanted to bring up is the fact that Free is way better than Hul and shouldn't have had a hard time winning against him. Perhaps it was Hul practicing more than Free for these series or Free just being in a bad day, but my personal oppinion is that Free is better.


I fully agree that free is surely a better player than Hul.

What I meant is, this is a tournament which shows who the better players between the top level pros are. July advanced while free didn't, which makes July a better player than free imo.

"Anybody can be a progamer."
"Not a game with natural skills."

Now, the ordinary person reads this and says, "That's stupid, I'm never going to be as good as Idra/NonY/Bisu/Mondragon/whoever, even if I practice, I'm just not that good."

What you're doing is like saying anyone can be a chess master. It may be less physically demanding than (pick your favorite physical sport), but the mental element isn't something you can just overlook. You may not have realized this, but some people are smarter than other people, better at decision-making, better at reading situations, etc.

I disagree. Luck also has to do with it. After all, progamers do not win 100%.

Perhaps you are right but I don't really agree with that type of "ranking".Let's not start an unnecessary discussions on this issue.

SkyHigh vs GGplay just started about 20 seconds ago, I hope SkyHigh doesn't mech.

EDIT:Sigh, he's going mech.
