Heart and determination are huge in top competitive sports. But jaedong is also mega talented. | ||

In fact look at korea sc1, scheduled practice time for 200 hundreds (or more) proffesional gamers pretty much training for EQUAL amount of time each day for years (which is determented by kespa and their team), and what do we got? bad b-teamers not getting any televised matches, and guys like jaedong with 75% win/loss in zvz. And multi osl/msl champions. And flash owning it up in the age of 14. In fact it is ALL about talent and personality, and training is just a requirement. Plz stop kidding youself. you watched to many hollywood movies i think. yup. we are in a modern culture, where people breed this type of thought to make themselves feel better. its ridiculous | ||

Jaedong had the best ZvT (better than Savior and GGplay) almost since the beginning of becoming a progamer. That takes an insane amount of talent and wisdom that comes to few people even after playing at the pro level for far longer than Jaedong did. | ||

Yeah, let's look at korea sc1, where bad b-teamers don't get televised matches, while guys like jaedong get ridiculous win rates in professional matches. Now let's compare it to the rest of the world sc1, how did those "bad" b-teamers stack up against the combined talent pool of the rest of the world? | ||

I just kept going, because it seems there are people out there who believe talent doesn't exist, which is ridiculous. But I do believe Axslav/incontrol are very limited in their talents compared to top pros. I dont think no one has said talend doesnt exist at all but seriously anyone can get to top 20 in sc2 with 12h training a day with a great coach. I think talent is what determines whos top 1 and whos top 10 player.. And some people can get up there faster than others.. | ||

Then you say elfi lost to Edge, and then go on to crucify him.. wtf? why are you so quick to judge before even watching the games? I agree with you in regards to the players... but your logic is downright awful. First you say as per rules, he's a proven Code A player WITHOUT seeing those AWFUL games and then you say you can't judge without seeing the games... That said and my sensibilities somewhat pleased. Code A doesn't really have a skill cap and you can be considered Code A and still suck because I got a lucky bracket. And yes, elfi is a good player. | ||

They are not saying that you can't get really good with really good practicing. They are saying that at the highest level of play Talent + hard-work > hard-work. | ||

IN korea there is a huge selection process, where talented people get picked. These bad b teamers are of course talented. They just aren't as talented as Jaedong. Its like the NFL. The benchwarmers for normal people standards are mega talented, but compared to Calvin Johnson, they are not talented enough. | ||
