So, we've seen all the other bad team's get threads with people trying to hype them up because theyve all actually got no chance in hell of winning. This thread is for people who are not delusional and know whatsup. I present to you :
The winning team. Now, i know all of the other threads are long winded and TLDR, and thats ok, because the reason they are ridiculously long and need a team of people to sit down and write an article for a bad team is because if those people arnt paid to write those artciles, no one will =( its sad. But thats ok. This one will be kept short.
Now for the part of the thread that explains to you why IM is going to win:
You seriously expect a written explanation after seeing the 2 best pornographic images on the internet? Nope.
But seriously, you want to know the real reason why IM will win? Its simply because even the current god of starcraft himself cant avoid talking about an IM player....
Do any other sc2 players get any form of recognition from Flash? So there's your answer. IM will win GSTL.
P.S - Team IM apparently also consists of: IMyoda, IMdreamertt, IMhappy, IMlosira, IMyongwha, IMseed, IMtrue, IMhorror
you could try to write more....I mean mine and Sawa's why KT will win proleague was vast, but I could have just written one line that said "because we have Flash".
but its a teamleague and everyone on the team is damn important.
plus you are using fomos content for images.
aaaand you are using the Flash meme outside its specified thread.

Really crappy OP. The last picture is amusing, but at least make some content.
And if the IM Coach keeps doing things the way he has, IM will definitely lose. I did a spit take when they gave him the best coach award at the Blizzard Cup.

Probably should mention that Happy, or that Losira guy too, I guess. Y'know they usually play more than the big dogs and actually don't have a losing record in the GSTL >.>

Haha, I was about to say that this would be funnier if it was just two pics of MVP and Nestea, but then I saw your post.
was thinking of doing that.. but its something thats been done to death by now and isnt really that funny to a lot of people anymore, its pretty tasteless. without artosis =(

As a huge fanboy of MVP, the Flash meme is all that's needed for me. Who cares about the trite platitudes that people usually write for these kinds of threads, when a picture says more than a thousand words?
On a more serious note, I suppose that a mention of Losira, Happy, and perhaps Yoda/Yonghwa wouldn't hurt.

I think Seed is the best protoss IM has, he's been stepping it up recently. Unlike Yonghwa, he finally broke into code A and frankly looks a tad more solid.
As for True, he got into code A with Seed as well this season, and managed to make an impressive run through the KSL Grand Opening before falling to MKP 2-4 in the finals. Probably won't make code S, but might be another decent to good zerg in the future and certainly an asset in the team league.

This.
You really need to add Losira at least. He got a ALL-KILL iirc one time and thats when he was beginning his break out. I'd suggest using one of his cute pictures, like the baneling losira or meowmeow losira, with permission of course

yup, but ive noticed that a massive problem sc2 players seem to have, korean or nonkorean, is nerves. whether its nerves of playing against someone that the community respects and knows about, or the nerves you get when playing in a booth, or infront of a large audience, or being intimidated by an opponent. sc2 players dont have nerves of steel.
i notice it a lot when i watch players stream games on twitch or own3d, they play so well, on ladder, and against friends or people theyve arranged practice with, and then when it comes to tournaments, they end up flopping and playing completely differently compared to how they played during practice or on stream.

ah cool, has losira also won 3 gs........ ohhwaiiit.......... >.> ^^
though youre right. can you imagine losira + mkp on the same team? theyd have to renamed the team to team CUTE, would just be too obvious.

I liked the flash reference, the thread was going nicely, and then it just.... ended. T.T and i was hoping to be swayed to the IM-side of these threads.
Why IM will win? Because they got both 2 most accomplished players in their line up. This is so evident I dont bother thinking about it, or saying it, or posting a thread lol.
IM line-up is still relatively deep. Just because MVP and Nestea are two of the best players ever doesn't mean the others need to be completely ignored ^^
It depends how much they want it. I'd say they have the strongest line up but SlayerS seem to have an edge in preparing for games and other team seem to have more desire to win the team league so i think it's still up in the air who will win eventually.
While Nestea and MVP are oh so good, I think the IM coach isn't very good at deciding who to send out. They barely used Nestea last season, much to the dismay of my fantasy GSTL team.
I was wondering where the IM thread was... Good writeup, short, concise and to the point. People don't know about IM outside of MVP, NesTea and Losira but they have a bunch of really strong players. Yoda and Happy are both really strong terrans and Seed is beastly protoss.
U made a thread with 2 tiny pictures next to each other with no statements.
This guy on the other hand added 2 regular sized pictures a BALLER Flash meme and the IM team logo. He also (while it may not have been the best descriptions) added descriptions about each player (Mvp and NesTea) and the team itself. He put in details explaining why team IM would win the GSTL.
And although he did 0 write ups for the other IM players, he still included them in the bottom part of the OP.
All in all, while this thread may not be the greatest hype thread, a thread with 2 pics and 0 content is ALWAYS going to get closed as opposed to a thread where content has actually been delivered.

Explain? If you mean not sending out his best players because they have a code s match coming up, well that's a smart idea. Code S is much more important than the Team League.

I don't think it's quite that either. I think the IM coach is trying to give his lesser players more exposure/experience and show that IM isn't just MVTea. I mean as fans we all want to see MVP and Nestea thrown out asap, because they've established themselves as great players and are the safe bets. On the flip side though, there's always the possibility that one of these nobodies actually becomes a somebody through the GSTL as numerous players have before such as:
the majority of slayers, Curious, Losira, Bomber, Sage, and perhaps most of all Dongraegu (his debut was magical :D)
Losira is actually one of the best zergs out there (top 4 for sure maybe even 3rd ahead of leenock imo) he is just really unlucky and seems to hit nestea and lose to the zvz master every season. Unfortunately hes down in code a where I think he will mop the floor.
The top dogs of IM are Mvp, Nestea, Losira, and Happy. Asides from that, the rest of the team are average players. I definitely could see them winning though because of just combined 6(?) GSL titles.
This is my favorite thread like this. I've read the other threads and they basically just dedicate a paragraph to why each player on the team is really good. A player on a pro Korean team is really good? No kidding. Coincidentally I also follow the sc2 scene. This thread was a very nice way to support IM while also be humerous. Very good read.
I agree that IM will be one of the stronger contender for the win but good teams will prepare special build/practice to snipe the star players. seems to work for most part from previous GSTLs. do not remember mvp or nestea going on crazy streaks or all kills so far(I am not sure tho).
def nice thread tho. when you are the shit there is little explaining to do.

No offence but this seems a little troll to me, you are bashing on other's threads and what they write about. First of all MvP isn't always consistent and neither is Nestea, There could be upsets.
This could have been a lot better made:/ instead of just showing a couple people, a picture, saying "oh yeah, they're good!" and calling it a day, you could have gone into depth about what makes each player good
On January 27 2012 11:02 MichaelDonovan wrote: Too bad MMA has both NesTea's and MVP's numbers. I have to wonder what IM's plan will be for playing against SlayerS..
Nestea and MVP rarely play in team league and when they do they play poorly. I also feel IM will win but its because if Losira, Happy, Yonghwa, True, and Ready.
edit: on the list you left out Fenix (who may or may not return to Korea), Ready(who is in the gsl finally) and team captains Junwi and BBi.

GSTL is winner's league format . Having MVP and Nestea is also more like having Flash and Jaedong (or Hydra or w/e) than just having Flash. Stop being a spoil sport!
When IM uses their big 4 the worst they have ever done was lose 4-5. In other words their A team is this close to being unbeatable. Unfortunately expecting MVP and Nestea to take the GSTL seriously or the IM coach to make smart lineup choices is probably too much to ask for.

Hmm.. MVP DOESNT FRIKIN LOSE PEOPLE!!! IM has got this in the bag. Nno need to even play this team league out. =] No but seriously, no one is on the level of MVP- except MMA.

Both MVP and Nestea have losing records in the GSTL if I'm not mistaken. Losira is the real star of the show in the team league
edit: actually scratch that, MVP did do well in the second GSTL (the one slayers won). Losira did good in the most recent season.

No, this might be the strongest... He's basically saying "Incredible Miracle has two 3xGSL champions. They will all-kill everybody in their path. You don't need backup if you have two of the best players in the world on the same team."

But in all seriousness, outside of MVP and Nestea (who I feel is on a slight decline), who else do they have? IMHappy?
Happy and Losira are both high code a/low code s skill level, also they have IMSeed who is a really underrated protoss who finally made code a this season. Also thanks to the GSTL format you don't even need a deep roster to win.
