Hello, This is Coach of LG-IM. - Page 7

Forum Index > SC2 General

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.

The coach responds to the constant slating, he obvious reads the LR? lol
Glad he answers his critics though but surely he must know that winning the GSTL is the least expecting from his team? They are the Barcelona of SC2 in korean teams after all (escpecially with MC being on their team too)

The reputation won't go away by making a thread saying that the picks are alright, though. No matter the reasoning behind it, one cannot deny that a lot of the picks from LG-IM are questionable, and some from the previous seasons might just have been plain wrong. If the fans on teamliquid and in korea can see it, then certainly the progamers and coaches are more than aware. Until something changes, every match LG-IM plays will be a match where I sit and wait for something to go terribly wrong, and it does take away a lot of the excitement I feel from other teams that nearly always have well thought-out picks, such as FXO or TSL.

On a positive note I like that you take the time to address the fans like this, it shows you care about the teams reputation and how you as a coach are perceived amongst your fans. I hope it doesn't make you too defensive about the situation, but rather make you and your team have a discussion about strategy and improving on it.

Every coach makes a questionable pick , but i am sure that there are good reasons or strategy behind them . January makes questionable picks all the time , but she is one of the best coaches out there .

I find that rather insulting. I have a FC Barcelona Football with the signature of every player along with the cert of authenticity thank you very much!

I think it's awesome that the LG-IM coach is responding to all the hate. Maybe snowbird or jon said something to him? We all know they read the LRs.

Can anyone explain why he sounds so defensive here? I admit I don't follow the team scene super-hardcore, but Seed won GSL and LG-IM just beat TL in the IGN TAC3 (even if it got a little overshadowed by Taeja's all-kill.) What's to be defensive about? Sounds like they're doing amazing.


they haven't done well in the GSTL since May last year

Just by chance, I have trouble picking out all of the faces here. Anyone willing to go through and name them in left to right order starting from the top left?

I know it's a lot to ask, but if someone could do this I would greatly appreciate it.
A man does what he must — in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers, and pressures — and that is the basis of all human morality.

people can criticize this dude all they want but look how great all his players turn out. Maybe the time given to them in GSTL really does help them improve and get better at playing on the bigger stage.

honestly with LG-IM's results in the GSTL, fans have all the right to criticize his coaching decisions, and in turn he has all the right to defend himself

Basically this. I don't see any party in the wrong here.

Also that picture in the OP is really, really awesome.

People bash on IM for trying to send players in weird situations, but we dont know how they do in practice, and if they need stage experience, it's really easy to sit on a chair and bash such high skill sc2 teams battling, but I'm pretty sure IM will dominate in the future, they play the long game, when you see guys like MVP (even Yoda this GSL), Nestea, guys that will very rarely cheese even if that means taking a risk versus really high level opponents, you know they are for real and try to be as stable as a macro god can be, keep it up IM, and yeah the coach seems to be really present for his team and always supportive, keep up the good work!

(Left to right)

Top: Nestea, True, YongHwa, Happy, YoDa
Middle: First, dreamertt, Mvp, LosirA
Bottom: Seed, horror, Ready

I wouldn't call it accurate, though. I was just comparing to Liquipedia images and to be honest I don't think I'm very good at this type of stuff.
