So baby and rest of team 8 is a bit more ahead that KT and SKT, and presumably the other playoff teams.
Not to mention that all the Team 8 players are eliminated from OSL, so they will be in full gear preparing for Proleague this year.

Wow when did this happen? Have a link for the VOD?

It's interesting to me that the worst BW teams actually had the most time (and incentive) to start practicing SC2. It will certainly make for some interesting developments in this hybrid Proleague.

Stuff like fac port cc or other fast starport variants has existed in BW for ages, way before SC2.
Just watch Oov vods for example.

As someone who doesn't follow BW that closely... I thought this was about a toddler prodigy. ><

So... that was it? People thought they were doing a 1/1/1?
Man, I was kinda expecting something crazy

If there was a like button on TL, i would push it for this post.
It's going to be interesting to see who comes out on the top for SC2. This is pretty much a hard reset on all BW players. Of course, ppl with rigorous training regimen will perform well as they usually have (the harshest training regimen i've heard of was Savior's back when he was playing: supposedly he only got 4 hours of sleep each night).

Oh, you mean someone with the ID Baby....

|

I think it's obvious that the best SC2 players from the Kespa teams in the near term will be the ones who "inexplicably" slumped during last season's proleague. We're going to soon be able to answer why so-and-so sucked last season.
|
Is the rule against Fomos content (like photos) still in effect?
It'll be interesting to see how the KeSPA players will play in the hybrid Proleague next week, especially considering how few are in GM and most are hanging around in upper Master league. And though they do command respectable win rates, I still wonder if a few can compete with the ladder monsters like MKP and ForGG.

Need some CSI in that picture. Where's the dude that CSIed the Flash picture before?
|
Baby is such a monster now, one of my favorite terrans. he's gonna kick some ass
|
the guy to the left looks like yum bo sung. the old dude standing is probably the ceo of kespa if im not wrong.

That's closer to the truth than you realize. He was 13 when he played his first televised games but I swear he looked like he was 9 or 10 year old.
|
I am relieved to see the chosen race is not something ungodly.
|
Rank 3 Masters shouldn't be too big of a deal to be honest. A casual player can get Rank 50 or so Masters and if you're practicing 12 hours a day, Rank 3 shouldn't be too hard.
