Anyone know how good the guys in PL are? Are they all GM on korean server?

Just curious because sometimes the play looks mediocre.


Bogus/Innovations is top GM. Soulkey is said to be one.



what about guys like stork/jangbi/fantasy?

Im just curious if these guys are actually representative of the best players in korea or if they are playing based on Kespa connections (obviously they have huge potential, but it kinda surprises me that they are in the lineups already if they arent GM in korea or something)

Kespa pros didn't ladder much in bw



I obviously know this I just am wondering how good these guys are because some of the games I watch look like my ladder games and there have to be players in korea better than this.

BO1 can get pretty cheesy. Makes this format very interesting.

Well, this is PL so only Kespa teams and players (besides EGTL) play here. So the players played here are the best Kespa players. In terms of skill, the range is quite big. There are some players who are Code S level, some Code A and some not very good. But this is the case for some eSF teams as well.

These guys were first class players. They just need a few months to get all of the subtleties down.

??????? it isn't but if you played the game at all you would imagine things like skyhigh making a critical composition mistake and this last game wouldn't happen. Its not indicative of the best players obviously but it would be indicative of a general/minimum level.


Now that I realize it is basically KESPA only teams this makes sense. I'm still curious as to the skill level of the lowest players. The worst pros in BW who were only practice partners were still godly and would rape face vs just about anyone when you ran into them on iccup/pgt etc. They only looked bad by comparison to the top players. Some of these guys make mistakes that make you wonder how good they really are.

It's not. I think he means he believes the play that some of the kespa players show wouldn't be good enough to get into GM or high masters on korea, not that being in GM shows you're better than other progamers who aren't.

Wait what why how?


I just have to agree that this format is way better than TeamTaeja format.
Here it needs a real team.


I'm also a bit worried about the fpl experience. Sure you could strike mad gold but all-in-all I don't really see it work out that well. Also my coffee is cold. Grumpy.

The fact that we're used to ladder makes skill seem more static than it actually is.
The relative skill of pros varies even day to day, based on many things.
