So he's still better than 95% of the foreigners at least | ||

A lot of people are judging him based on his earlier performances, but anyone who has seen him recently (his TvT's vs MvP were realllyyyy solid) wouldn't be jumping on the 'lolololrainisbad' bandwagon. His ZvT sucks, sure, but he'd probably be a good addition to any team in the West. Calling it now, if he plays in the West he will crush faces and all the naysayers on TL will have to shut up. A mediocre Korean player crushing the Western scene (doubtful it'll happen) would say more about the Western scene than the player that we know is mediocre. If anything, rather than shut people up, it'll only fuel more arguments about the skill gap between Korea and the West if this actually happens. | ||

He cheesed a lot in GSL Open Season 3 where he made it to the finals and lost to MC. I have to admit I haven´t seen too much from him since then but he stayed in Code S so he probably isn´t terrible and able to play longer games. The real questions ,if he is serious about joining a foreign team, is if he has decent english otherwhise it would be pretty stupid imo because it sucks if you can´t even communicate with your team mates. | ||

(joke.. cause in wc3 the #1 teamleague was WC3L which is why koreans were joining other teams to compete; in SC2, obviously GSTL is the place to be.. but potentially Rain is noticing he wont be on the TSL roster and thinking he can join a foreign team like FXO and be their ace player??) | ||

You can think about this guy what you want, but we all know the korean success in ''foreign'' events, aka they won every event they entered except the TSL. Best of luck too Rain | ||

Have any of you haters actually seen his latest games? Rain is not bad at all. No, he's no MMA/Bomber/Mvp, but he's not some terrible cheesy scrub like some of you are suggesting. This is AWESOME news, and I can't believe you guys are flaming him because he wants to get involved in the foreigner scene. | ||

But see that's thing, he's a good korean but not a great one. He would definitely not win every tourney he's in, and he wouldn't be a favorite for most. He's good, not great. | ||
