He's a great player, but truthfully, he's left light alone too many times. Mbc always sends out a lineup like light, sea, jaehoon and hyun and light is always the lone win. Sea has been great lately, but he really is not talented enough to win a starleague. People like Skyhigh, Flash, Fantasy, Leta, Hwasin, Light etc. are just all better than him and that's only within his own race.

To be honest. I think (T)Leta fits the criteria of a new (T)Sea[Shield] quite well. He produces some incredible games, gets far in individual leagues...and then somehow manages to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Also, like (T)Sea, he was also lauded as the next great Terran and it did not end up the way Leta fans were hoping for.

However, admittingly, (T)Leta still has a chance to get rid of the "(T)Sea curse". + Show Spoiler +
He has qualified for the OSL round of 8, which is already farther then (T)Sea has ever made it. Everything will depend on how he fairs against (Z)type-b. By all accounts, he should be able to eat him alive. But if he fails, then he will only go to confirm his status as the next (T)Sea.

Leta is a big, big big favourite to advance to the finals if he get past Yarnc in the semis.

Yeah are you kidding me? Leta is hugely skilled, it's just his lack of a decent tvp that is keeping him back. Even in his TvT losses, he looks like he is in tip top shape and he makes 2port wraiths look unbeatable (although upmagic and baby, among others, have been showing how fragile it really is).

He's a totally different player from Sea, in a different era and different team. Just by the number of hite players in individual leagues, you can tell that he is able to get practice against a larger variety of gosus than most other pros, except maybe someone on stx or sktt1.

Did Sea ever get past the osl ro 16? Serious question. I thought he had some sort of curse like canata where he always qualified and dropped out at the same point.


if you read the article you wouldn't ask that question

I haven't read it in like a year, just read the new bumps.

I remember when boxer went to the army and was asked what player from each race he thought was going to the best in coming years. He said Sea for terran and I wondered if he was going to be this amazing terran prodigy. Now at this point would Sea be considered a veteran?
