ForGG is easily a code S level terran, so I'm not sure any regression happened. Moreover, the circumstances are very different too. Now the entire proteams are switching with the coaches and support and everything. I do think this is the new beginning, but I am not saying GSL guys will become irrelevant in the next month or two at all. | ||

Yeah but the exact same thing happened in BW as well. He had a meteoric rise into winning an MSL final, then never quite looked the same. At least these guys know how to be consistently good. | ||

ForGG is far from Code S he's Code A an honestly thats likely where he'll remain for some time maybe get though up an downs but he'll drop down in the first round or two an thats it. There was a definite regression though no doubt about that so I must agree that the same will likely occur though thats only my opinion I guess. | ||

They need to practice being pushed in the manner you outlined there. It's also for this reason that I don't see Kespa players dominating the scene unless they pretty much hide away and only play amongst themselves except for tournaments. If Kespa players play against GOM players on a regular basis, and if they are more mechanically/multitasking focused, the motivated GOM players will become accustomed to this level of play and will improve themselves. it's also possible that they'd lose repeatedly, get de-motivated, and just die out. | ||

I think it's in reverse order, so I'll translate bottom-up: With the rise in skill level of Kespa players and the recent losses from current SC2 pros [he calls them 'alliance' players... what's the deal with that?], the bickering between the two communities has only been exacerbated. Whose fault is this? Is it the fault of the alliance players who lost? Or is it of the Kespa players who have the talent? It's neither; the lady of luck simply smiled towards Kespa this time I think the sentiments surrounding the situation at hand can be explained using a soccer analogy: to the fans of the alliance players, it must feel like Korean soccer just lost to Japan 10 times in a row, while to the fans of Kespa players, it must feel like we just beat the likes of Argentina, Brazil, Spain or England. However I request the fans not to crap on the alliance players so much: even though as pros, it is only the results that matter in the end, I do believe all of them would have at least put in minimal effort [to prepare for the matches]... I do admit that even though I'm no longer part of the alliance, I feel upset by how fast our players lost [to Kespa players] So.. even though I had to give up on this WCS due to my circumstances, in the upcoming OSL I will show the Kespa players a rape [he didn't say rape but the sentiments are similar] they have never experienced yet. There's nothing you can do to stop it, even if you practice, because I'm on a different level from other Toss players. One more thing, I am in no way undermining the Kespa players; I am merely telling the alliance players to be on edge and try harder. Most Kespa players have a few more years of experience on us in the professional realm, meaning they are a force to be reckoned. To all those who have taken a blow to their dignity [through the recent string of losses], I shall help you regain it. It would be so embarrassing if I lost after writing all this... ㅠㅠ So.. who is this guy? I come from a BW background so I have no idea who this is, but he sounds pretty arrogant lol I hope he has the skills to back up his words | ||

Oh please ForGG retired in BW , because he wasn't doing great in it . He was good at his prime , but when he retired he was pretty bad . He also played on his own without a team for a year . You can't beat the Kespa system when it comes to practise efficiency . The only regression will see is SC2 becoming the new BW . | ||

(and no, hon_sin isn't that good T_T) Before Light/Really, Stars had Piano and MVP, who comprised probably the weakest Terran lineup on any non-ACE pro team (except maybe STX, who had ... Hwasin and a bunch of rookies at the time. I'm pretty sure even Upmagic/Really on eSTRO was stronger...) MVP was possibly the 9th or 10th best Terran at his peak. lol Really had a ton of hype, especially when he beat Flash but come on he wasn't on the same level as Light. Light was a TvZ savant and has been for years. | ||
