I don't think anyone ever denied that some Kespa players would end up being as good as the GOM players.
The theory of the elephant was they would be head and shoulders above the top GSL code S players in a very limited time.


Nah, the 'theory' was that they would dominate JUST like MC, MVP, and Nestea.

We'll find out in a few GSL seasons.

Also.. DRG did he play poorly?


Not especially, but it certainly wasn't his usual form circa two months ago.

wtf the theory is self evident in the damn name. Elepehant in the room. Skill gap. The best in GOM are far less skilled than those in bw and the results will show it; there was no claim that x player would dominate, or in x time, just that the bw scene players would effectively wipe out the vast majority of sc2 professional players in a "not-long" time frame. And if this sort of thing continues, they clearly will do so.

Effort vs. DRG Game 3
+ Show Spoiler +

OMFG that was one of the finest ZvZ ling bling vs. ling/bling brawls I've ever seen. Effort willed himself to victory that game. I can't wait until the latest Proleague is done and KeSPA players can commit themselves 100% to SC2.

I was also very impressed by Jaedong's creep spread and general mechanics. I don't think anybody is surprised that KeSPA players have excellent micro/mechanics. Once they can really commit themselves to the game I think we're going to see some really amazing stuff.


On second thought, I should rephrase that. I would much prefer that BW would continue (much more entertaining IMO). I'm just sad for BW players who have to practice both games, and then getting compared to full-time SC2 pros and crapped on for slower development. They don't deserve that. I suppose they will have the last laugh.

JAEDONG HWAITING!!!

I think it's clear that the strict practice regimes from Kespa teams is clearly the way to being the best. Why western teams are postponing their structure is because the scene is still relaxed. Soon, Kespa players will be able to compete in MLG, Dreamhack, IEM, IPL, etc. It'll be BW all over again. The teams will have to adopt the korean team's style. Practice houses, rigorous practice regime, and dedicated coaches. Coaches are the hardest one to grasp because it's hard to determine what is a good sc2 coach. The kespa teams know the role of coaches. That's why KT grabbed Clide.

Effort, hero[join] AND Jaedong won!?? Incredible. And here I was hoping against hope that one of them would manage to pull out a victory.

Just wanted to let you guys know that OGN is now showing all games of WCS Korea on their channel every night from Monday to Friday (replays). I personally think this is a big step forward in GOM and OGN partnership. Now, if only OGN upgrades their channel to HD...

this is.. incredible!!!
after only a couple of months train (in total) and still ahving to paly sc:bw on the side, they tsep up and beat long-term sc2 players, not only just once or twice, but quite often now!

jaedong beats sC, effort beats DRG(!), Roro beats leenock and hack dafuq ! O_O

give these guys 6 months to 1 year more and they will dominate current GSL players. 2-3 years to reach their true potential
