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.

well, this one + blizzcup + maybe season 1 GSL next year and OSL spring = 4 more
plus plenty of foreign tourneys to win

not impossible, just really really really hard haha

I shouldn't say impossible, I should say It's not going to happen.

The other players anywhere close to matching his records are all slumping.

Nestea - Code B, MC - Code A, MMA - Code A

no one else is anywhere close.

really doubt there will be another WoL OSL also.

And even if someone does manage to do this, they will be missing 2 silver medals in a starleague/ 2 semi finals appearances, and their record will be over a few month/half a year instead of consistent for 2 + years.

marineking could match that, if he wins the next 4 major korean starleagues or something lol. he's been decent over the whole of sc2

and DRG is about as far away as marineking, i think. 3 more titles + 2/3 foreign tourneys

in theory yes, he's been around long enough. he would have to win 2 foreign tournaments and at least + 4 starleagues in like less than 6 months though, so good luck.

I haven't been particularly excited by MLGs this year, but man am I excited for this one. I've been rationing the amount of starcraft I watch lately (for the sake of school, work, family, and my own personal enjoyment) and I'm really looking forward to spending a good portion of the weekend at a barcraft or parked in front of my TV watching MLG. It's going to be awesome!

Well, right now Rain is the unofficial world champion. Imagine if he win his code S group and then lose to some nobody in the open bracket. We'll have a totally unexpected new champion )

And this tournament's excitement just skyrocketed! Not saying it wasn't exciting before - I was really pumped for this, but with Rain being there it's so much better! Grubby, Rain, Nani, pretty much all my favourite players are there, only Parting missing!
