they really should have picked at least 1 terran. Would have been much better for training, if you have players of each reace around

I'll never understand why no names (no offense!) make a barcode account. I can understand korean pro's or pro's in general like illusion/idra/etc but will never understand why you would. If anything that hurts your exposure as a player (let's say you are a really good up and comer nobodies going to know until you do well in a big tournament, illusion was seen as an up and comber even before he did very well at IPL4 for example).
When I think of something else, something will go here

I'm really glad to see Ret there. He's mentioned in the past he has lacked commitment on improving his game, I see him already as a dominate player just lacking the full commitment.

Good to see desrow there, he might not be a mannerbear but he's indeed taking his pro career very seriously. I can respect that.

Why do people hate other people that have barcode accounts? Everybody I play on ladder seems to hate me, even before they lose, because I play on a barcode account. Lets just put it this way, if I did become a known player in the community, I would hate to know that everyone knows how I play. I dont play "standard" because it seems like "standard" play is no rush 10 minute games. So yeah, thats my excuse for having a hated barcode account.

Actually MoW will have 6 well established players and 6 less known players. AWESOME! Although it would be nice to have more Terrans in the house, so they can train better.

MoW, fighting!

Ret is already great, he just needs that tiny boost to get on top. Desrow needs a team, so this should work out for him. Even if these guys aren't a team, this house will definitely be a team-like environment.

Indeed, i dont know the number of applications they had but choosing Ret, Desrow and Titan ?? They are Pro players and Ret is in one of the best teams in SC2. ( my favorite player is Ret but honestly i dont think he needs it) same case as desrow.
Sorry but this House of ministry of win, they were too greedy.
There are very unkown players with capabilities to improve in all Servers.
Poor decision by ministry of win and honestly i dont think they gonna make that kind of cash that cover the costs of the house at least. :|


How are Desrow and Ret's situations the same at all? Ret is on one of the best teams in NA, and goes to all the major tournaments and places well in them. Desrow is not on a team and hardly travels to tournaments at all. They're completely different.


TL is a NA team? That's news to me.



Okay, thats kind of beside the point. Hes on one of the best teams.

As happy as I am to see that they picked great players for the house, I feel like they falsely advertised. They said anyone could apply and get selected. But they went for three big named players over lesser known or unknown players. Business-wise this is the best choice for sure but why not pick just one up and coming player for the free three months? I don't know. Thats my two cents.
NA protoss.

Agreed, MOW should have carefully looked for some up and comers, I love Ret but come on, they should have maybe offered Ret another role as he would be valuable dude to have around but him taking the spot of an up and comer is just wrong imo, unless I'm mistaken and this whole thing wasn't about giving an opportunity to a new players . . .

That is the point I'm getting at with what I wrote is that they could have given chances to "up and comers" but they clearly only saw dollar signs, is the only thing that annoys me,but Im certain That the chosen ones will grab the opportunity and train intensely.
But this is only my opinion.

I'm surprised that they invited Titan after you could see that he was too busy playing 4 tables of poker than to devote his full attention to his video application.
They seem to be recruiting the biggest names possible in order to get the most hype possible for their house. Maybe in this way, they will be able to attract sponsors and become more self-sustaining, so it's not a bad idea.
Desrow isn't a good player, but he's controversial, and he ignites more discussions than Major does, so that's probably why he was picked.

I'm a little disappointed that the slots went to players who are already very established, but I do love me some Ret. Will be great publicity for the house. I'll be interested to see if this helps them actually improve, since Ret and desRow already have experience in Korea.


Well desrows korea experience didnt seem to be any good since it seems he was mostly laddering on its own. Its good to be in an enviroment where people are helpful which was not the case at the gom house it seemed.

while you say stuff like that on forums Kas practices. theres a reason why champions remain silent until they finally break into the scene.
