Life has to step up his proleague game imo, he should be the herO/Maru of KT, but he isn't


Nahhh. As others have stated Life just isn't a teamleague player. His playstyle doesn't really fit into Bo1s. It's Bo5+ where he really shines.

Zest needs to step it up. He has been underperforming for months (with IEM being the sole exception)


But Zest never was a super monster in PL either (in RR format). Imo the one who has to step it up is the coach. Zest is an ace caliber player but you can't send him every single time, it's too predictable. Why can't we mix it up with Flash and occasionally Stats, like last year?


because that's how KT staff works.
There was once a time in BW PL where the coach kept sending out Flash in ace match and the round ended with 6-7 with I think all seven losses coming from ace match losses.

Once KT are fixed on an ace player they just keep sending him out and out till the season ends.

Last year KT sent Flash 5 times, Zest 3 and Stats 1. Not so fixed. This year tho all 7 ace matches were played by Zest, and lost 5 of them
I know nothing about coaching, but maybe it was Hoejja persuading HOT to make weird ace decisions? it certainly worked better than this year.

But Life never was a great team league player, was he? It's unreal to put those expectations on him.

People on team liquid are so quick to forget about his zenex days

I wasn't around by that time I'm just parroting others (that's why I phrased it as a question) and looked up to his 5-5 record last year on IM, a team that I think needed him more than KT this year.

I don't buy this "he just isn't a team league player" tbh.
Life is a world class sc2 player, so he should be doing well in any format you can throw at him imo.
Maybe the coaching staff is responsible too, but i would expect a way better proleague performance from "the best player in the world"

At this point zest should just straight up refuse to play ace matches. He already has lost a bunch of those. They don't send Flash for ace because he doesn't "feel ready". What about Life? What about TY or Stats?

Chose Life to be fielded because that seemed more logical, but my gut feeling that they'd send Zest and lose right. Huh.

Totally. He lost a few ZvZ lately. Has to be a super hard slump.

You can go with super duper. He's reaching INnoVation-level of slump soon.

Had such a good feeling after the first two games. Shame about Life losing his game. Maru beating Protoss is almost a given by now, so I can't understand why the coaches keep fielding Zest in the ace. Life next time, damn it.
