I *love* that quote about motivation. It says so much about what it means to be a KeSPA progamer.

Really cool, didn't even know EGTL had a coach, I thought Hwanni did it.

Shiro: A lot has been talked about how motivation to practice harder is the biggest limiting factor to success. How do you motivate your players to work harder, or cheer them up after a loss?

Sung Jin: I always tell my players this: Don’t just look at the small tree in front of you. Look at the big forest. The players need to do well in Proleague to win honor and fan support, so the motivation is of course necessary. If a professional is having problems finding motivation, then would he not be an amateur instead?

This guy does not mess around lol. He has a point though.

The coach seems to have the right attitude.
Let's hope the players (especially foreigners) can follow up.

Well, EG-TL is currently doing really well in the Proleague for a first timer. So if he thinks that the rounds where they have an advantage on are still to come... oh boy...

Someone must have failed at photoshopping.

Dodging the language barrier question as usual. Well, Thorzain already has the Slayers experience and Stephano is a standalone player anyway, so it should work out.

I've been waiting for this type of coach for a very long time, as I've come to the realization that the foreign scene just doesn't have any one that can fill in as a full time coach like the KESPA coaches.

This will really improve both EG and TL and hopefully the other guys who aren't in Korea now have a chance to participate in PL under this coach and structure.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

I could be mistaken but I don't think TL players are living in the same house as the EG players. Again I could be wrong but I believe liquid players have a different house and thus won't have the coach there as I am assuming he is only in the EG house.

Again correct me if I am wrong.

Nice interview I am super jealous that foreign players will get to live and play with jaedong. God that would be such an immense honor to just play jaedong once in my life time.

My goal in hots is to face jaedong on the korean server
When I think of something else, something will go here

I thought they said in the initial announcement that they have a joint team house? If they were in 2 different houses, the coach wouldn't mention how Zenio is in the team house probably?

Having them in two houses would just cause trouble arranging travel to PL matches too imo. That's my 2 cents.

Enjoyed the interview though. Thanks!

Yeah, some of the TL guys are, if not living, then at least spending time/practicing in The Lab. Yesterday as JYP was streaming we saw HerO there, for example.
