Jaedong doesn't look like he's in a good shape. Not only skill-wise but physically too. He looks tired, sad, I don't know what else...

He only slept 2 hours. Everybody looks like shit after only sleeping 2 hours


Remember that time when Polt was sleeping 4 hours a day for months for 2 seasons of WCS AM so he could practice sc2, go to school and do a part time job. That was crazy.

I didn't know he had a part time job. what'd he do?


He never said. It was a funny interview.

Wax: So youre going to school now. When you first came over you said you started badly in HotS because you said you didn't have time to study and play Sc2. So what changed?

Polt: Oh I sleep less.

Wax: Sleep less?

Polt: Yes, I sleep only about 4 hours a day. Rest of the time it is either SC2 or school.

Wax: What do yo do for free-time and relaxing then?

Polt: Oh I go to my part-time job.

Wax: 0_0

this make me feel bad for struggling with my schedule on relatively easy classes


Polt has the weight of america on his shoulders. He can't rest

I must say, for someone who supposedly has wrist issues, Taeja's results don't seem to reflect that. I wonder if it's a case of mind over matter or whether he's found some panacea for his ails.

When his wrists hurt too much he leaves games pretty much the moment he thinks he's behind even if it's still totally winnable. Other than that it usually doesn't seem to affect him that much.


Not that I know, but my impression has been along these lines too. His wrist issues seem to effect him more on a mental than physical level.

Although, I'm sure it effects his practice. So it could be a snowball effect rather than a mental block.

Yeah, I remember how disappointed everyone was after that series when he made a normal number of them in subsequent games.

The one time in his series against Hyun that I saw an observer on the production tab, I immediately went nuts. (I had to - I had yelled out "No!" when Rotti said we had to cheer for another unit, and Qxc heard me and commented on it.)

Damn, so much negativity surrounding Jaedong He's not in form that much is clear, but he showed great consistency in 2013 and his Blizzcon run was pretty special. It's not as if he's not shown anything in SC2 and is some bum.

I'm not sure a Kespa team is the answer for him, but his slump has been pretty long. I'm not sure what his environment is at the moment, but my best guess would be that his initial freedom from Kespa restrictions and the new experiences of foreign tournaments really lifted him motivation wise, plus the freedom may have lifted some pressure so he shows some great stuff . plus EGTL had some damn good players in that house.

Now the novelty of being out of that environment may have worn off and he needs it again to get back to top shape? Hard to tell really without knowing everything.

WCS NA has the two greatest examples of players who blossom outside of team house environments in Taeja and Polt so it's not as if it's as simple as Kespa house = Return of the Dong
