Hello, This is Coach of LG-IM. - Page 8

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.

Sending unestablished players is a great way to build depth on top of preparing them for the pressure of individual leagues. With three star players and a top sponsor LG-IM isn't going anywhere so I think the coach is smart, personally.

NESTEAA AND IM GOGO
I play 1v1 SC2 because I've heard there are people who are currently better than I - and that pisses me off.

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


Basically it seems they dont really have much stock in the prize money and they throw people out there who need stage experience, trial by fire. The actual competition itself is irrelevant. To him anyway.

~.~ I wish he'd think of the people (ahem us NA) who stay up to watch GSTL only to see IM fall because DreamerTT was the ace player

not to say trial by fire is bad, but using MVP is good too right??

Any coach who helps create the players that IM has is a genius no matter what.

GL, hope you guys take it all!

I don't think this thread was necessary, In my opinion LG-IM consist so many amazing players, a caliber of Code S champions so there is no need for the coach to worry about anything but keep doing what he has been doing so far because it has definitely worked. Just because there is no results doesn't mean it's a bad thing.

Koreans have been doing this thing where they cut the hair to like a razors edge, really perfect hairline. And then they treat the hair with gel in such a way where it actually kind looks dirty and oily rather than clean. Not a fan, sometimes the women get it too.

The one with the best hair here is definitely front and right, I forget what his name is.

Huge respect to the staff at LG-IM. At the end of the day, it's this team that has more championship trophies than any other. I watch the GSTL to see newer/less known players have their chance on the stage, and one thing I can always rely on LG-IM for is this opportunity to see players that aren't necessarily GSL stars.

I had my favourite team badge as ZeNEX because I love supporting underdogs (same reason I enjoy seeing LG-IM's lesser-knowns play in GSTL) and switched it to StarTale when they absorbed ZeNEX. Now, I'm changing it to LG-IM to show support to coach DongHoon Kang.

I actually support coach Kang's philosophy when it comes to GSTL matches.

Sure, sending out players like MC, MVP and Nestea will make games much easier for him, but

why not give chances to up and coming players?? A lot of you might say a good player should be

able to qualify for code A, which is utter bullshit cuz Code A prelim is one of the hardest prelims , even

great players like DRG struggled to get past prelims. Gaining an experience in broadcasted matches gives players

confidence. In a word, coach kang is making a long term investment here. Lets just wait and see.

i do also like his thinking about this. This would definitely make his other players obtain more exposure and motivation to become better. I like to do this with UC Irvine's CSL matches as well =]
