I don't get why rain gets so much flack. He is actually really talented.

The fact that the last game he played in gsl was terrible. (up/down matches vs. inca)
You are only as good as your last match.


His careless play when he thought he had the game won directly caused the worst GSL finals ever... I think he's a solid player, but that's due enough cause to hate Rain.


Worst GSL finals ever? Have you seen NesTea vs InCa?


just to refresh your memory: rain lost to inca causing inca to advance and to play a PvP witch is his best match... then nada then the final... against nestea, that's right you spoke too soon without thinking.

How is that directly causing it? Direct cause is inca, indirect cause is Nestea, even indirecter(as in: who cares) are incas opponents

Well thats it for Rain then. A bunch of cyber-warriors on TL saying he sucks. HF with whatever you do in your life Rain, and say hellow to SanZenith while you're at it.

I hope he finds a nice Team and we get to see him in some european/american tournements. This is a risky move and i respect that, not like all the hate in the thread. Oo

Atleast he has balls to do this kind of decision unlike the most of the Koreans. Not a fan or hater, but gl and i hope Rain get some reasonable foreign team to join in.

no top team would take Rain.

at least that is my look on it. He is skilled, making it to the finals wasn't all luck... a lot of it was but not all. Its hard to say if anyone will sign him, or if he will be worth signing in the end only time will tell.

I think its cool a korean player wants to a join a non-korean team to enter tournaments outside korea.

It also must be hard being a sc2 gamer in korea considering they proberly considered 2nd rated compared to there bw players.

And with all the stuff happend in the western scene i think its a good choise.

Hope you find a team Rain

he's a top player in every team. look at all the best teams, there are for sure 3-4 players way worse than him in all of them. more than likely, even more.

I see no reason a team wouldn't sign Rain. He is a GSL finalist. He is a very good player.

It would also be good publicity to be the first foreign team to sign a Korean pro to their roster.

The people who are saying he is bad/wont make it into a team are stupid and just blindly hate him because he cheesed some games. He is actually good and is still code S, just because he cheesed some games ( a tragedy i know) does not mean he is bad. Making a finals, and getting code S twice is no small feat, he easily could take on what many people believe to be "top foreigners", and could probably hang with any of the big korean teams.

I wouldn't call Rain a top tier player mainly because his play relies alot on gimmicky 2-base timings/aggression. That being said, his success is due to many players unable to handle the pressure he puts on them. In addition, he's a reasonably solid player as well. He'll be a good addition to any team since they can practice against this kind of style.

A pretty sure "a bad player in code S" still equates to pretty awesome in the foreign scene. Moon (code B), 2nd in IEM, top 8 in MLG.

Can't hang with the other koreans, so now he wants to play with other foreigners, i don't even think he'll do that well lol.


That's what a recent american who used to be in Korea did. I for one think that Rain would be perfectly able to compete and do very well in the foreigner scene.

Did he leave or got kick of ?
Because i don't see why you would leave TSL as it's the only team who give money to their players.

I don't see why a foreign team wouldn't take him, he's a GSL finalist and an overall decent player. How cool is it that a korean pro wants to become this involved in the foreign scene?
