oh nani, as a huge fan of you, i don't get it. You're amazing at this game without taking these huge risks, but you have to have some respect for someone that is daring enough to do this.

In no way should he get a seed without any results, but it is a good enough read to at least root for him


perhaps i was too blunt, i simply mean that he shouldnt get a spot out of pity, there are 10000 koreans training their hearts out aswell for a spot in code a.

but hey, thats just what i think ;p

im pretty sure the korean teams are packed with players. Based on the tour videos from csn and artosis, the houses look full. There are players that dont even live in the houses. Also, there's the language barrier, and as far as I know only slayers and ogs have competent english speakers.

edit: I wish carn the best of luck and hope he gets back in the foreigner house.

Agreed, but sick creds to cArn for laying it on the line just to do what he truly wants. Sometimes, I wish I'd have the guts to do the same.

I would assume fou does as well, given their closeness to FXO

It seems weird, people always mention how there are probably more opportunities for the average pro outside of Korea, but that's the metric GOM is using to bring foreigners in. Whereas cArn who only had his sights on Korea from the beginning loses his spot despite a loyalty to the Korean system.

I don't think it would be right to give him something he didn't earn. To get into Code A you have to meet the criteria, and cArn simply doesn't.

Didn't he join a team recently? That should make things easier for him in and outside of Korea.

Well, props for him trying to hold out on his own without any team or anything to support.

I really think that he should come back and place at some foreigner tournaments, and him getting that far in qualifiers means that he would do really well back home.

Still, hopefully he gets the spot. It would be nice to see a newish face.

I hope the best for him. At least when he returns he should be tearing up the foreigns tourneys This will be a good preview of what an intense training can do (and without having the best practice partners)
I remember him from an artosis video in the very first (or 2nd ?) GSL open qualifiers, he was so shy

No I'm pretty sure this is a different one, even if their ID looks exactly the same lol

Being away only one Bo3 from qualifiying for Code A is a result that many other foreigners cant achieve.
You have to be good to come that far.


And the ones that can are HuK(before he got his invite)/Incontrol/Select/Kiwikaki(?)


If I remember correctly, none of those players qualified for Code A.

GOM just can't give away code A spots though. Hopefully he'll get picked up by a team.

i hope fxo recruits the guy.

he's obviously pretty good considering how he was 1 bo3 away for Code A.

the guy sounds fucking amazing to be able to achieve that without any prior rts experience before SC2.

That is the thing, they already have just given away Code A spots.
