question - why are u staying in Korea? You were mediocre in NA, did not accomplish anything, how do you honestly expect to even get noticed in Korea? You probably lose to diamond koreans.

Good decision from the team.

I don't understand his decision of staying in Korea; he never got noticed in EU/NA, doesn't speak a single korean word, hangs out with foreigners all the time and all the 'practice' he gets is from ladder. I seriously don't see how somebody would expect to improve like that unless it's the air or water in Korea that makes their players so good, which I don't think is the case.

I'm staying in Korea for the rest of my career and I'm the one who decided to leave. LgN was quite surprised today.


So why did you decide to leave team LgN desRow?

i really don't understand why that matters to you. If he wants to stay in korea to practice that's his choice. besides, it's common knowledge that practicing in korea is the best way to improve.

What are you talking about?

There is a ton of evidence out there of desRow being a pro WC3/DOTA gamer for many years in the scene. In addition he has some legit SC2 accomplishments. Didn't you see when he took a game off IdrA when he got 3rd place in that online cup?

How do you not know about this?

Get your facts straight before making this kind of statement.
desRow plays on the KR servers and beats high-masters players on a daily basis.

i hope this is a troll... took a game off idra? wow big stuff... 3rd place in an online cup that prob equated to a max of $50? holy smokes! im stating the obvious and u fan boys are going nuts, relax. It's not news that Desrow is not ever going to win anything major ever, especially not in korea.

Well that makes more sense, seems like you actually want to move to Korea instead of just 'staying there for a while with a bunch of other foreigners to get better', and that's pretty darn great.

Thanks for clarifying and sorry if I sounded too harsh.

Why do you come here to only insult a nice hardworking player?

I hope your fitness regime and starcraft II career work out, Des.

Is taking a game off an established pro really an accomplishment?

What the heck? I don't know how that's a troll post. It's facts. I remember he posted his accomplishments and that was one of them. Getting 3rd place in some of these online cups can be pretty tough. IF IdrA was playing in it, then it was probably a serious cup event. He even took a game off of IdrA dude. I'm not making this up desRow himself listed it.

I saw him take a game of revival who is GM on the KR server and a legit GSL zerg. He wants to stay in Korea and has been improving significantly. And his KR account is definitely high master mmr.

Did you even consider for a moment that someone may simply enjoy Korea more than North America?

Desrow is making the decisions that will allow him to improve the most in the long run. You are just making baseless statements trying to get a rise out of desrow.

Desrow staying in Korea not because there's hope of him becoming a competent pro-gamer who can win tournaments, but because of Korea's healthier and slimmer diet...

Well he's in the GOM house till March, I believe he has been working on securing a place to stay after then in Korea. I don't know where he is in that process though.

I'm pretty sure Revival 3-0'd him in that show-match.
