I think this is completely incorrect. The time on the clock is irrelevant to Life. His body is lagged and exposed to being awake at hours in which his Circadian rhythms don't want him to be, and that's the problem.

That's making a massive assumption that none of these guys make an effort to adjust. Every athlete has a program they do in order to deal with this. Unless he just got off the plane the very same day then I guess this does not apply. But more than physically, he's disciplined to sleep are a particular time.

Life, who can't play past midnight or whatever in Korea, changing his sleep schedule for a foreign tournament? I find that unlikely.

Well, I can't explain how of all the various sports that I've watched, not one constantly brings up players being jetlagged.


Its brought up all the time in the NFL when West coast teams travel to the East coast...

and its also very rare a team flys across the world to play a game.

Of course, was that ever in question?

roro and symbol might disagree

Symbol is great in prepared matches, but I feel like Life can out-muscle him. RorO just seems like a weaker opponent than Life. Soulkey should stop meeting Life in the Ro16 so we can see Life ascend.


It's roro who eliminated life in ro16 of recent GSL.


Technically, he was eliminated by Parting, but yes - KeSPA Zergs have been Life's weakness for some time now.

It was parting actually who eliminated life.

Life lost 2 very close 2-1 matches.

He is always been in question when his oppoenet is also a zerg. And that's why he is not always the best zerg player.


Eh, I'd say it's the other way around. Roro and Symbol are two of the best ZvZ players in the world. I think Life is better than them both at the other two matchups and a better player overall.

Do you honestly believe that these underaged progamers don't play SC2 past midnight in Korea?
Its just a matter of using an adult's account. You think they can't find someone above the minimum age to register a game for them to practice at night? When progaming is their job?


Its not Life's job. He specifically stated before his GSL win that he couldn't practice much because of high school... so I don't think its terribly unreasonable to expect for a person of his age that it wouldn't possible...

So Life and his days on Zenex are a more accurate representation?

Besides Leenock and Life, are there any Zerg players that would have been expected to really win even in WoL in this tournament?

Why are we acting like he's been playing through the open bracket all day? He beat Minigun in like ten minutes. He might be sleepy, but it's not like he is playing below his regular level.

Wish Polt would stop doing the proxy reaper build now.


You're crazy if you think this is life's regular play. He would never drop a game to polt under normal conditions. Polt isn't even close to life's league, yet managed to take a game already. Kid is jetlagged like crazy and it shows in his face and play.

Not that he's mentally exhausted, just not fully awake.

Ah.. right. Sorry, my bad. Still, in vP and vT RorO doesn't seem as great. And the CK game that set was boring roach hydra. The chaos in HotS should be better the next time they meet.

Symbol has always been shaky in ZvZ. I was surprised when he defeated Curious tbh.
