I don't get it why doesn't he just take a break, he's still young and 3-4 months of proper rest/ treatment might actually have him back in his old condition. I know it took forever for them to figure out exactly why he couldn't put pressure on his wrists ( not standard carpal tunnel) but damnit he's going to wreck his body this way. If anyone could walk away from code s and requalify without much trouble it'd be a reinvigorated MVP. At this rate I worry he's going to permanaently damage his body and be screwed as a progamer and in general life.

It's unfortunate that the way GSL is structured means there are no off-season breaks. Obviously the best thing for him would be a solid few months of rehabilitation Flash-style but I don't know if its feasible.

Not carpal tunnel. He said on GSL Off The Record that he's got some neck/spine injury that is causing the wrist problems. CTS is completely different.

It's an awkward position, if he takes a couple of seasons off does he ever manage to recapture what he's still capable of doing given how much people are still improving across the board? Also an awkward time with the Kespa switch on the horizon since who knows how much the KR SC2 scenes landscape will shift in the coming future.
If he was to take time off I'd hope GOM would offer him a seeded spot when he gets back, sort of like you can get a protected ranking in Tennis if you're out with an injury for a while. Would at least mean getting proper rehab wouldn't set him right back to the very bottom of the tournament.

Because they will be casted soon. So they won't spoil the matches.

Oh wow, that push by seed was sexy as hell vs TLO... and immaculate forcefields too.

I so wish for TL to somehow get negotiations done with Kespa . At this point in time they have already aknowledged that a foreign scene exists and it would be epic if their players could participate in the tournament . After all TL was created with the aim of following the korean BW e-sports scene or so i know . TL helped Kespa expose themselves to the world so the least they could do is take part in TSL .

BW pros will not enter a SC2 tournament where they risk getting beaten by foreigners for probably half a year.

I don't think they are that pride consumed . They have lost in the past to foreigners no big deal . I think they will participate in the next MLG's bracket even if they are not invincible against foreigners by that time .

Rooting for Squirtle (for going from noname to awesome in such a short time), Sting (for being the only Terran left), and Coca (for being Slayers), but I think TSL has a good chance of landing Hyun or Revival in the top
Also. MKP. STOP DYING SO SOON

I think Revival's decision to not take a third was bad considering his opponent's speed is nonexistent. However, it would have been a risk without confirming that DRG had no gas.

Than I hope for him they will find an answer to this. Sounds like he has the same problem as me, and so far no one has found a soloution.
