If Rain spend a couple of days in US where will he stay? I don't think SKT T1 have a team house in US or have a partnership with a foreign clan.

Most likely a hotel like most koreans. Even those on foreign teams/partner teams mostly stay in hotels since the team houses are usually not in the same city as the tournament.

Considering Rain will only stay at a hotel in the early morning and late night, I don't think he will be practicing much at those times.

Not sure he is used to play 5 hours a day in a tournament in front of lots of people, it must be tiring at the end, I don't think open bracket was the best, group seed would be better, that's what deserves the new OSL champion !

He probably practices 12h a day so I'm sure he'll be just as fine as any other korean zerging their way through the open bracket. The only reason I could see Rain losing earlier than the grand finals is if jetlag will affect his play a lot.

Why? Bring a laptop and your mouse/keyboard, it's not ideal but it's not like he needs to practice 10 hours the day before Dallas with how well he has been playing.

So if CombatEX and gaulzi cheese Rain out of the open bracket, what will happen to the Universe?

From what I've seen he can cannon rush almost as well as top EU tosses but he can't really do anything else.

Late games are overrated anyways.

In Gaulzi's case early midgame is too late^^

NesTea will just make a new one where it didn't happen so don't worry.

I figured I'd be watching Halo 4 at MLG this weekend....


But if its a Rain vs Flash final, I'd lose it.

Feel like MLG tried everything to make him come so the event feel more prestigious but in these conditions I doubt he will play his best


Huh?

SK t1 contacted us, Rain wants to win Dallas and asked to attend.


Rain doesn't give a fuck about jet lag.

He wants ALL the titles.

Obviously a Bonjwa is immune to fatigue.

Though, more seriously, if Rain wins MLG, GSL and WCG this year, surely there will be a case for him being the best WoL player once that chapter wraps up.


No, no way.

The only way there is going to be a better WoL player than Mvp is if someone wins more than 4 GSL's/OSL's and at least matches his 4 foreign tournament gold medals.

With the time left before HOTS It's impossible.

I think that Rain can surely dominate the last few months of WoL. But TaeJa's recent losses have shown how little the margin between "he's owning everybody" and "he's beginning to slump" really is. Rain has been very consistent until now, reaching the group stages should be no problem for him.

Mvp definitely is the player, who will always be remembered as WoL's strongest force, even Rain winning everything from now on won't change that.
first we make expand, then we defense it.
