Hm, well, I guess you might be right IN A WAY.

The semi-pro license still exists (he's listed as a semi-pro), but he's not officially on hanbit (he used to be a 연습생 - translates best to practice partner right? - on there so I just assumed they picked him up officially as soon as he got his license, but I guess they have to do that at the draft?).

I still don't see how what I said was retarded tho ;p

this is sooo off topic... it went from draco/suncow brackts in the Courate tournament to Assem being a flower waiting to bloom, to Jathin loving fat chicks..

i was trying to be mean

but, if u have semi pro license and play on a team in proleague or whatever, im positive you're recognized as a full pro

also, 1 year ago they randomly decided to make all jun-pros into full progamers

I would give SunCow 0.1% of winning his group -.-
Anyway, i guess Rekrul is right about becoming pro only if you have team. So semi-pro actually becomes pro when he is registered in some team and plays in OGN/MBC trials. So that means that winning Courage only gives you semi-pro licenze.

And Dove is no more on Hanbit. He used to be their practice partner, but after some Courage failures they dropped him. And they picked SpEciAL[S.G] for pro, what a blow.

Yeah, I think I understand how it works/what you meant now;
Win courage get semi-pro, but before you can play for a team you have to be drafted, when you get drafted, you get your pro-license. So in effect, you can't play for a proteam without being full-pro I guess?

According to BlackJack, he abused at the last minute and pushed him out of the top 8.

Damnit I hope that he makes WCG this year. I wish USA was sending 3 again because a USA team of Day/Assem and a third would be great.

Just impossible for Suncow right now imho, his ZvT is too far away from top amateur level, i think his ZvP / ZvZ is kinda nice though.

Suncow is probably overrating himself a bit, but he's very underrated by tl.net. TL.neters judge him by how he was 6 months to a year ago or even longer back still. He's been training REALLY hard.

I'm really curious how Crystal will fare. I know nothing about he is doing right now, but he was really good back in the day.

USA is only sending 1 player to WCG. Maybe I'm wrong, but it strikes me that Assem is not in the form he needs to be in right now to take it, so he probably won't.
