Hello, This is Coach of LG-IM. - Page 13

Context: LG-IM's Head Coach gets routinely criticized in and outside of Korea for frequently using his team's lesser players, which may have contributed to his team's streak of poor results in the GSTL.

Being a mid tier korean pro player isn´t easy, I personally think it´s great that you want to give all the players a chance at success.

It's always cool to have important figures in Starcraft posting to the foreigners and explaining themselves. Sounds like an awesome coach.

I wonder of Coach Kang posted something similar on a korean message board given that he seems to get flak from pretty much everyone. I think there's always going to be people grumbling when he sends out what appears to be weaker players because to some fans it's all about who can win right now vs investing in players for the long term. I don't envy him the task of balancing out when to send out players for experience vs when he must pick a strong player/ a sniper but he seems to have it figured out as evidenced by sending True for experience and then Seed to snipe jjakji the other day. Hopefully this GSTL season goes well for IM and we get a combination of good results and the team growing stronger overall.

I did think he made some strange decisions in previous GSTL's, especially the earlier ones when it came to sending out IM's stronger field, but recently every decision he makes seems to be spot on. The criticism in Korea must be bad if he feels he needs to explain himself and defend his decisions, which is quite sad. Coach Kang fighting!!

When you have monsters like Seed, First, NesTea and fucking MVP on your team it's not even a real risk to send out the lesser experienced players first.
Starcraft 2 is funny, everybody picks the race, which he considers to be the weakest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nice of him to post on TL about stuff since most of the time we hear about crap from translations from Korean sites. I wonder should Korean teams hire people to do PR for them outside and improve their reputation. Like smaller teams have a hard time getting fans like nshoso for instance. Anyway it just seems like a missed opportunity.

He didn't need to make a lot of great decisions in today's match. I can just imagine IM coach saying "Come on YongHwa, I had a plan for when you lost!" I'm sure he's very happy about the results though.

If Hirai sent out Seed a year ago for an ace match over NesTea or MVP he would have got destroyed on TL, but now everybody knows it's usually the best choice .

Exactly. I think this is why every time a Korean progamer or team coach posts on TL we all get warm fuzzies. Korean teams reaching out to the global SC2 community is a great thing, and I hope it happens more often. (For that matter, how 'bout them Taiwan and China teams?)

It would also help the Korean teams leverage their sponsors and own brand quite well - they often times may not be able to express it well to English speaking audiences but their players are usually pretty good at representing their teams and sponsors. (KeSPA players more than eSF, but I think KeSPA focuses a little more resources on teaching players on public presentation.) I mean, look at EG - they are probably one of the best teams at making sure you know who they are, who their sponsors are, and (at least, mostly) they try to focus on presenting the game, their sponsors, and themselves in a positive light. (Except Idra... but he's gotten better.)

Okay, enough derail from me... On Topic, once more great Kudos to LG-IM's coach for reaching out to TL. Even if it's just to say "quit yer bitchin', I know what I'm doing".
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

MVP and Nestea have horrible GSTL records.
