Reality isn't even an S Class player. Just a tad below. :p

How would you even know how long he plays it? Playing it longer helps you understand timings better and develop a really good game sense.

So even if we assume they played EARLIER than they stated in interviews its still weird how they fucked up their games in Winner bracket and after 1 week they improved SO MUCH. So logical conclusion is they are simply talented and picking flaws in their gameplay from hour to hour while training.

No GSL, no GSTL, just WCS and if you're not in this you'd better just rest for a month than practicing. That would explain why so many games are of poor quality recently. We can't blame it on Diablo 3 like before, that's for sure.

Happy put himself behind by 40 supply without an engagement.. so I pick him On the flip side Coca gave soulkey a free third base and all the tech he could ever want. Tough choice imo.
I think Coca just messed up his gas timings a bit for what he needed to do after the opening while trying to transition into standard, whereas Happy consciously decided to do something stupid all the time xD

Or have I missed something else? (Lots of questions sorry haha)
You have to switch games every time you come out. So say bisu plays bw for skt one week, next week he has to play star 2, so yeah atleast those who play in pro league still have to practice both games. But afaik pro league is very close to playoffs.

Well Reality is obviously a BW player that transitioned really well to SC2. The thing is, we only see good Kespa players vs the whole variety of GSL players.

It's astonishing how fast they've picked up the game, because even though broodwar was harder, sc2 is still is still a hard game.
That said I think I remember an interview with the head coaches where they were talking about which teams started practicing earlier.

nice turret placement by Reality well done having his expo already established. Risky by Happy to go double expo now

Turret placements in BW is an art work.

Nice to see Kespa players picked up on the small things like correct map specific turret placement.
