Yeah but it's strange that their trying out at all. With Pro League being a major factor and all.

If Mini makes Code A when players like Jjakji and MMA didn't, I'll be so pissed.

Well like 3 trainees made it already.

yea but Mini is awful


He's probably had awful games. But Kespa players are getting better each day. It's not like they've peaked or anything like a lot of WOL players who started before them have.





How long have you been saying that?

Well, they are getting better each day. It's just that whether they are getting better at a rate faster than eSF players.


Obviously they are getting better at a faster rate since they had to do a lot of catching up (and still have some left)...

Actually, to be perfectly honest, KeSPA players will get better faster than the rate of eSF players. After all, if you can't beat them, buy them.

maybe the opinions of some tl netizens that they don't care about individual leagues are not so accurate

They do care about individual leagues. But in Flashes interview he made it pretty clear that he wasn't putting all his heart into GSL. I guess, I can't base every player off one's opinion though.

Well what beter could they do? Chances are that they're not going to play in proleague, may as well participate in individual leagues. It's been the same since BW days.

I feel like a lot of the kespa guys would get bored only playing proleague, esf players get lots of opportunities to travel outside korea and play in stuff like iron squid and IPL while kespa has to practice for only a team league basically. competitors want to compete, GSL is their only option until OSL returns so I figure they will try their best in most cases.

Theyve been beating them yes, but KeSPA players have been failing in GSL other than a few. Overall, eSF players are still better.

its not that they don't care, its that they don't have the time to prepare for the individual leagues like non-proleague players. coming to the qualifiers to play a few games aren't detrimental to the team but i think if the qualifiers were held on the same day as a proleague game. they wouldn't show up to the qualifiers
