It's likely he will do well but expecting him to win code S soon is a bit too much imo. I think he can definitely make it if he finds the motivation he made it into such a good player on scbw, yet there are other players with the potential to be monsters that didn't make it as far into their previous games for reasons they might overcome on SC2.

Why would him win Code S be to soon? He has been playing sc2 since season 1 so he isn't lacking experience. Nerves and no proper practice will probably not get to him either since he is a legit progamer. With a good Code A season and a good run in Code S he could very well be in the finlas next season no doubt.

I tend to agree. He has no shortage of practice at all with 3 accounts in the top 50 of the KR ladder. Nerves won't be a factor, and with his experience in major SC1 tournaments he knows how to prepare for a match which will be quite suited in the GSL format.

OMG this A teamer BW pro who was about to be demoted into the KT B team made it past code A!

Also another terrible assumption is that people think BW players will give a fuck about Code A/S when they swap over to SC2

did u guys see ForGG in the korean weekly?
he is undeniably a good player but he is nowhere near the top terrans right now. (watch him vs BbongBbong if you want to know what im talking about)
at the rate he is improving he will probably get to that level sooner than most other players but the learning curve tends to flatten out the better you get.
i wouldnt be surprised to see him go far in code a but i doubt he even is a favorite to get to code s this season. maybe especially since he is facing fucking sage in round 1.

we should give him some time before we hype the shit out of him..

it will be like the great flood sweeping away all the blasphemous meatbags so that the chosen ones can descend from the ark and create a luscious, new world of purity and greatness.


True'er words were never spoken. The people who we worship now for their SC2 play were mediocre at best in BW. Can't wait to see someone in their prime like JD, Bisu, Flash, just imagine what they could do in SC2.

With a good Code A season and a good run in Code S he could very well be in the finlas next season no doubt.

He's been playing since January, and in the lifespan of sc2 that's a pretty big disadvantage considering the game was released in July. That's 5 months. Do you even know how much people can improve over the course of a single month? And even then he hasn't been on a pro team since just recently.

If you've seen him play you'd realize he won't be in the finals of code S, but he does have a *shot* at making code S. There's so many people making blind predictions when they haven't seen him play a SINGLE game but only know of his history and that he's made it into code A. There actually do happen to be games available for you to watch, but for some reason people don't bother and just want to spew random predictions on the off chance they're right.

Just for fun:

MVP and NesTea vs Fantasy. 2v1 can MVP and NesTea defeat Fantasy?

+ Show Spoiler +




Outmatched, MVP and NesTea must think of a way to defeat Fantasy!

MVP holds Fantasy back while NesTea charges his Scourge + Baneling energy beam taking out both MVP (who will be later revived by Dragon Balls of course) and Fantasy.

Fantasy loses but warns MVP and Nestea that Flash and Jaedong are coming!

Will MVP and Nestea have what it takes to train and prevent Flash and Jaedong from dominating?

To answer your last question, no. Too much raw talent with those two.

But he probably hasn't practised with the intensity most other currently top player has practised.
and in his past performance in the esv korean weekly, his play showed promise, but definitely wasn't top s class.
