 funkay is pretty good aswell but I think the main reason he is going is to support his brother, his skill is not high enough yet that a korea trip is worth it imo. @grs MorroW organized his trip to korea by himself iirc and it had nothing to do with mousesports. | ||

I think he's pretty out of his depth in Code S, he'll have to work very, very hard between now and then if he doesn't want to be another Thorzain, Sase, Idra or Sen. SaSe is great and is top3 foreigner imo with NaNiwa and Stephano. He will do better and better when he get to korea again imo, and when he gets the chance again in GSL he will prove how good he is!  | ||

He'll do great if he's ready to give himself some time. On July 12 2012 00:38 plustrzy wrote: ![[image loading]](https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/315429_406578336061151_672619937_n.jpg) Draco Funkay and Mana haha, Draco = Morpheus MaNa = Neo | ||

Nerchio is serious contender for top3-top5 foreigner spot atm so nothing to be ashamed of. MaNa is already really skilled and has even more talent (remember from dreamhack his instant decision of destroying and rebuilding his own damaged gateway to eliminate the weak spot in his wall? you can't practice shit like that). Plus despite still being a teenager he has a ton of on- and off-line experience so perhaps he won't freak out in gsl booths. He's a perfect candidate for some Korean training. My only regret is that in the gomhouse he won't communicate with Korean pros and coaches. MaNa is a very friendly and hard working guy, one of very few foreigners who tries to learn some Korean. He would fit perfectly in one of pro teamhouses. | ||

Yea; i think they started inviting foreigners due to the lower popularity of sc2 in korea. Gomtv still wants to make money and will use every possibility - and it's still fair as only winners of certain cups get an invitation (?). | ||

At least there's no more draft, so if a young player decided to interrupt highschool for full time training and tournament participation, he wouldn't need to deal with that one. | ||
