You'll have your essay by the end of the day. Please calm down. It's easier to ask questions and make accusations than it is to answer them.

Already, I can feel my chest clenching up. Bare in mind as I write this essay, that there is a very high chance, that I've thought more about this than you.

Don't be ridiculous, you can't tell me that you consider Korean coaches would influence whether people would like a player or not, and ex-players would add more competition and knowledge. I am not talking about importing 1000 Koreans to play, any that happened to get involved in the foreign scene would contribute valuabl knowledge and provide legitimate competition and while they'd have strong fans they'd still be targets for scalping by foreign players. Koreans playing for others' countries certainly would still demand the same support as home-grown players would.

Maybe I didn't make it clear, but the Korean players and coaches would be playing for/coaching another country that they may reside in - otherwise they may be special invites as Koreans, I guess.

Again, you've misread what I wrote. YOU IDRA are the original LastShadow.

I've dealt with you before in the past is what I was saying. I was attempting to share with you that you've caused me grief/duress in the past, very similarly to how LastShadow has caused me recently.

Maybe you're right, as we may infer from your recent amazing gaming results.

Again you're trolling - you answered yourself in your above response to the messenger. Quality over quantity is what I am getting at with the coaching and peer experience to be shared in this situation.

Let us approach it this way. If we assume you are wrong, then that's a pretty cynical mind you have to believe a person could be that cruel.

I can assure you vehemently, that you are wrong. I am not LastShadow.

dont use words when you dont know what they mean

the reason foreigners arent as good as koreans is they dont practice half as much. anything that can be learned from koreans isnt gonna be learned through the language barrier. and all of that is entirely irrelevant seeing as letting koreans play in a tournament has nothing to do with some kind of esports exchange program.

Artosis said no such thing. Artosis knows my identity. He's pulling your chain.

And I'm beginning to think you're pulling mine.

Or, he just wants you not to compete in the tournament. ;-p

And what word is that, perchance?

I don't believe you for a second, what you are claiming is counter-intuitive and in all likelihood bullshit so you can try and win your weekly TL argument. Obviously, OBVIOUSLY, the number of practice hours has a huge impact but you can't make me believe that a nation where this game is played as a sport, broadcast, analysed to this degree, and has huge prizepools cannot offer anything to the foreign scene through coaching. Why would teams have coaches and seek advice from peers if this was the case? Sure they practice a lot as a sporting team will do to get a set play perfect but that alone is never the whole story and you are just being stubborn in saying this is not the case.

Like I said, the language barrierwill thin. Additionally, unless you yourself speak fluent Korean (the answer to which I am not sure of) you can not know for a fact that there is nothing the Koreans can present to foreign players to improve their play. The whole idea of practice is knowing what you are doing before you actually proceed to engrain it in your repertoire.
