Killer and GGaemo play Starcraft 2?

GGaemo heard they removed spider mines and began practicing immediately. Nobody has told him about HotS yet.

His facial expression on that was pretty hilarious!

[quote]

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


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

Many players only pracitce by playing ladder. I mean yea they'll study their replays if they can, but in this they dont know who theyre going to play anyway so thats actually a terrible excuse. The "they don't have time" is complete BS


Well, I don't know about that. It may seem like they have plenty of time but if their main priority is training for a whole team of players (Pro League) then they wouldn't really have that much time if you think about it. Whereas the ESF players only has to focus on one group and that's their GSL group.

If players only practice by playing on ladder (i know for a fact thats all DRG does for example) then none of that is relevant. When you just practice ladder, youre just focusing on yourself and not your opponent so thats irrelevant.


The map pool buddy. Kespa players have to practice for an almost completely different map pool.

Yea, but how many other tournaments do top eSF players play in that have differnet map pools, plus kespa maps are being used in GSL this season. Its nothing about map pools, preparation or anything. Right now, overall eSF players are better than KeSPA.



Of cause it matters, how do you explain most of ACE players in KESPA beat by their trainee or bench? it's about preparation.

this happens in eSF teams too (DRG lost to Noblesse in Code A last season. When you are playing teammates, weird things seem to happen.)


No, not from the same team except for Bisu. Overall, KESPA bench are doing much better than their ACE players.


A couple of them making it through doesn't mean that overall they're doing much better, particularly when you take into account that players like Flash, Fantasy, Bogus, Baby and Soulkey are already in code A/S.

why are you all arguing about map pool? stephano himself said he only needs 4 days (or 4 games?) to get used to the maps
Kespa pro certainly train in those maps specifically yea, but they also have to play ladder to face off other opponents to not fall behind in the metagame

Why listen to Stephano about practice? Given his comments on practice regime, he's either the laziest progamer out there or a liar.


He's probably lying to make it look like he has some incredibly ability or something.

Lifephano Zone, man. They can not practice and make the other player look like a scrub, apparently.


Life practices a ton. He said the increased and enforced practice on ST was why he became so successful so fast on ST.

In your interview for Ro8, you said you couldn't practise as much as you wanted because of school

I wasn't lying. I don't get to practise at all. Laddering occasionally is all I get to do.

He practices when he can, which is not all the time. I'm not saying he's lazy, but that's from his Ro4 GSL interview. ST provides him with an environment that's more structured and allows him to use the time he does have more efficiently, but he clearly has pretty hefty time constraints placed on him when he's in school.

Thank you for sharing your opinion.
Now respect other's peoples opinion as well.
From my perspective; eSF and Kespa are equal in skill level from the bottom to the top. except Kespa teams seems to cultivate academies better than eSF teams, while eSF has the best player in sc2: Life.

The only opinion ive shared was when I said eSF players overall which based on GSL results between KeSPA and eSF players and the quality of games PL is producing compared to Code S, I dont see how you can argue (note some KeSPA players can compete with everybody) I think everything else i said was a fact.

I've made this argument at least 3 different times on other threads and I cant believe I'm bringing it up for the 4th time.
but you CANT compare Code S to SPL
Comparing the two is retardation at its finest.
Code S is a individual league for the top tier players. SPL is a team league composed of b teams, a-teamers and hell even trainees..


This is excuses, and more excuses. Code S is top 32 players. SPL plays 4 players for the winners round so it should be 8x4 (32 players top players). So the 'level' of players shouldn't be that different.
