I really have no idea why the general tone of this thread is "lol eh so bad he escapes from Korea in shame". Maybe a bro just wants to get out of Korea, see the whole wide world, pick up some white chicks... why you gotta be hating?

ROFL people can never let go THAT ONE GAME. Unless you suddenly make a big splash like San then these perceptions get stuck. San was never that bad either. All the "omg he's improved so much" is facepalm worthy.

People underestimate how far ahead of the foreign scene the Koreans are. Rain may not be on the level of the top Koreans but then neither is anyone outside of Korea. I'm sure Rain could compete just fine against the foreign elite.

Rain could join most foreign teams and instantly become their ace player (at worst, second best player). All the hate is laughable.

The best part is, if Boxer had done the exact same builds and made it to the gsl finals everyone would be praising how creative of a player he is.

Rain does it and he is the scum of the earth. The guy is a solid player, he cheesed out nestea sure...Nestea should have defended it better. It was months ago, get over it.

yay rampant fanboyism and bias.

As a complete sidenote, WGWAG generally works with AG is asian girl and generally doesn't work when AG is asian guy.

Back on topic: it seems to make sense for him to want to travel outside Korea with a team that's not already in Korea if he wants to participate in the foreign scene. Also, I have to imagine that he's got something lined up already - it seems unnecessarily risky otherwise.

Ya I agree. Artosis can hype anyone and shut down anyone else down that he wants.

For example, Clide is way overrated. He's not terrible, but he is not that good either...

Nah, he was doing the same scv all ins that all terrans were doing at the time, there was nothing creative about it.

First impressions are the hardest to break, so we all got to know him from this style of play. Even if hes not the same anymore (and he's not), it takes a long time to break preconceived notions. Just look at Polt and his latest run

I'm pretty convinced Rain is better than Clide and Tester at this point.

I'm pretty sure Polt would kick all their asses without breaking a sweat but he still receives a ton load of hate. I don't think anyone will ever forgive him regardless of skill.

I figured everyone in this thread would be hating on Rain, given his past cheesing of NesTea, and his colossal self-destruction at the hands of InCa. But he's a decent (but not great) player, and seems like some people are able to see that. Impressive!

He's a young player that has shown a lot of potential, he would definitely work well on a team like FXO. The guy is already in Code S, which is a huge accomplishment.

I hope he does well in the Western scene. I've always liked Rain for some reason, and I don't think he deserves all the disrespect that he gets. He's been losing in the first couple rounds in his recent games, but I feel he's been showing some improvement in his play also.

Rain hwaiting!

Well your "complete sidenote" is offensive at best and blatantly racist at worst.

All the hate in this thread is disgusting. Rain is a good player and can do well in foreign events. All those guys hating now will probably be his fan boys when he wrecks havoc.
I want to be with those who share secret things or else alone.
