The elephant was BW pros as a whole, while you were staring at just those 3 you missed the stampede of rapage elsewhere.

If you actually read the article, it said that pretty much EVERY Kespa pro would be better than the GSL players. Again, the article was written a long time ago and I think eSF players and teams have gotten a lot more serious.

I would wait more than 1 season before calling it off, still very impressed with quite a few Kespa players even after such a short period of time.


Well, it has almost been half a year since the hybrid proleague started, so they had quite the bit of time to improve. I really think some players are going to get really good (Flash, JaeDong, Bisu) and some players are already really good, but there will also be KeSPA players who will nowhere near the level of the current GSL pros.

To be fair the article does say "a few months", and it's been 5 months since the switch and they are nowhere close to dominating. In fact it's likely they never will. Kespa will just be very good, most likely better, okay I'm pretty sure they'll be much better eventually, but they won't crush everyone.

yeah but that doesnt happen to many people. i think winning first time in code S = RR. but idk if people think they need to spend only 1 season in code a, or if you can spend 4 seasons in code a, then win code s first time, that doesnt seem like royal roader to me.

Winning the tournament a.s.a.p. seems good enough to me, aka through up/down first time, then win code S

Because royal road is a term from OSL, we should use that as our standard. In OSL, only the 'main' tournament counted. So in GSL, only the main tournament (Code S) should count.

the article is exaggeration and speculation about how BW skill cap was freaking high comparing to SC2. And that is a fact. However BW and SC2 appeared to be different games. So the fact that BW pros are already serious in code A speaks for this article. Kespa's regime cannot be argued and now it is just a matter of time.

He popped up a few months ago and posted an old video of his days in IM as if he was going active again. I believe I saw a tweet of him trying to contact the IM coach as well about his return. Nothing seems to have happened since then.

Goody should stay. He is not a great T player but he has a unique gamestyle and "somehow" he made it work. I'm not a Goody fan but I have huge respect on him.
