Hello, This is Coach of LG-IM. - Page 14

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.

I would argue he has done a really good job as a coach. Look at how many good players IM has. IM isn't a one man team like MVP in the third GSTL. IM.MVP can only play so much with his wrist conditions, so all the other IM players have to pick up the slack, and they have. + Show Spoiler +

If I ever ran a pro-team, I would likely model it after the LG-IM style, every team has really good players, LG-IM has great practice rutines, but more importantly, he gives his underexperienced players time in the booths playing, which is huge.

Oh, and didn't they just win the last IPL Team League Season 3? The one that gave as much money to 1st place as the GSTL? I don't think they're doing that poorly in team leagues...

Every time i see a picture of an entire korean team i feel bad for 70% of the people on the picture because they work HARD and they aren't recognized at all outside korea. The big names got too big shadows for the sun to shine everywhere.

IM coach just wants the other players to have TV experience to boost their confidence and start winning games both individual and team. Good job coach IM

After two nights in a row of hearing even the GSTL's own caster(s) trash talking him on the matter it's easy to understand that he might want to defend himself despite the absurdity of the attacks. I do not think he "had to" respond though. A team coach should not concern himself with the opinions of those who do not understand his sport no matter how many of them want to play armchair general on the topic.

I'm fan of LG-IM. Lesser players should be allowed to play obviously.

You guys have the best team in StarCraft 2. No one can deny this. So if anybody ever talks smack about you, just ignore them.

How can you think that there's nothing more to a coach than deciding what players to put out. IM has 3 GSL Champions, of all races on top of that. No other team has anything like that and you can be damn sure that the Coach has a part in this.

He clearly isn't a bad coach, considering the individual talent he has helped raise. With winning IPL TAC and showing an excellent performance in this GSTL prelim round, everyone on the team seems very eager to get rid of that "can't perform in the team league" stigma. Best of luck to IM.

It ain't about winning every team league game every time, It's all about building up and bringing out players.

The fact that the head coach of IM decided to make this post makes me like IM more than for just the players they have on the roster.

8 GSL championships from 3 different players, plus two second places, as well as a sponsorship from one of Korea's biggest companies. He must be doing something right.

This.

On the plus side, I do love my LG monitors, so it makes it feel like I support SC2 now :D

Ignore the haters and critics, how can people who don't spend the majority of their waking day living with and coaching their players know what's best for a team? The overall results speak for themselves.

Keep up the good work and win more championships!
