How the hell is this kid so good with these ridiculous kind of restrictions?

Also, what exactly is this forced shut down law, I'm not exactly familar with korean laws, but it sounds like if you're under 16 you can't be online between after a certain time?


lol how is it ridiculous?
He can't play from 0:00 - 6:00. thats 6 hours in the night.
He still has 18 hours per day to practice. You think its not enough?

He can just sleep during that time instead of sleeping 3:00-10:00 or so.


Remember he has to spend hours in school everyday too.

It's ridiculous that one of the best zergs in the world is going to elementary school in the same time. That alone is ridiculous.

Haha, as many others I also thought he couldn't attend the actual finals, because of the sidebar text cutoff!

Regarding Life's skill, it should be noted that up till his games against MarineKing he had summer break and could focus 100%. I think it is too soon to see whether school affects his performance and overall I think the major factor of how impactful school is, is how much Startale players and coaches help him analyse holes in Mvp's play. Also zerg OP :-D.

I don't exactly have first hand experience of Korean schools but something like 7-8 hours of school with 1-2 hours of traveling there doesn't sound unimaginable.

Then couple hours of doing other stuff like eating and maybe ideally sleeping for more than 6 hours and there's not that much time left.

I don't think the 0.00 - 6.00 alone should hurt anyone really.

Not yet my friend. Not yet. We all know how Mvp is fond of making kongs.

And I would say Mvp's injuries pretty much put them in even terms for practice.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong but i remember when i was playing Aion beta (a korean social security card was needed to create an account), people said the game just shutdown by itself if your account was linked to a card whose owner was a teen under 16 yo. It's just a forced shutdown, you can't do shit about it.

Flash... Who also played his fingers till they bled. I never refuted someone who is young could be great, Flash was best becasue he practiced more than anyone else but a kid who gets a bit of practice in before he's kicked off being one of the better players? -.- Skilled.

Do we really know about life's training regimen? Perhaps he trains a lot besides all these obligations / complications.

Do you live next to Life then or something since you know how much he practices?
You are making assumption after assumption about stuff you don't know about it.

Flash won an OSL under similar conditions. Do you think he never slept or something?

This resembles a law in Germany, where "kids" under 16 are not allowed to "work" after 10PM. This caused some funny problems for a football team, that couldn't use their 15 year old prospect for the really important games, as those were played at night. xD

Although it is a pity for Life, as a general rule this is more helpful to the general populace than harmful to the one in a million pro gamer, for whom this is a real handicap to his job.
