Great interview, and am a huge fan of how Thorzain is like 6 inches taller than everyone else.

Not sure how the all-kill format is going to be their ace card though, as none of those players have been really streaky lately. Maybe hoping to bring Taeja back to his outrageous summer form.


LOL! The koreans are almost all the same height and the the thin white dude towering all over them haha!

very nice!

Love EG-TL hope you guys keep rocking!

Zenio tweeted that he chose to live and practice at the new EG team house. I think it is actually paying off for him.

TaeJa still lives at home, and Huk as well as HerO have their own place (with SuperNova and Jinro, it's not a Liquid team house). That does not mean they won't go to the new team house and practice there with their teammates.

I like Coach Park (who has a much better hairstyle now, too, than on that picture, haha!). He seemed really friendly with Thorzain on the Proleague stream recently. I don't think the language barrier is a big problem. Hwanni has really good English, and Coach Park as well as the other Korean players speak at least some English.

And yet another great picture of the team that day, and in this one HerO is actually looking bad-ass as well.

Sung Jin: Personally, I have high expectations from two of our foreign players, Stephano and ThorZaIN. It’s not easy at all for foreign players to achieve good results in Korea, but they are very hardworking and earnest, so I think that we can expect good things from these two players while they are in Korea.


Haha he thinks Stephano is hard working... He has a surprise coming.

Nah, you gotta keep the color rows. And the lighter blue one has the more bad-ass looks, especially Zenio. <3

Jaedong's look is okay, but JYP, Puma, and Thorzain really have to work on that.

The reason it is where they will be successful is because it relies on raw skill, which is advantageous for the egtl players because they have played more sc2. The kespa players have been playing proleague for years and they know how to prepare for their matches while the egtl players don't understand yet how to prepare for proleague.

People really believe into the Stephano 4 hours of practice stuff still? He may have practiced 4 hours a day a year and a half ago, but most of that is just Stephano playing a character. I have a feeling every time he visits Korea he'll put in plenty of practice.

Sung Jin: Proleague is different from other events. Long time KeSPA teams have every aspect of their schedule set up to match the Proleague schedule. This means that Proleague is their Number 1 priority by far, but that is a little different for us. We also have many foreign events as well as streaming to think about, so we are at a small disadvantage in Proleague here. I think it is important to consider Proleague and other events as one thing in order to do well. I don’t think that our players are lacking in experience compared to KeSPA players to do well individually. The difference is practice method. We can be lacking in this area, but Round 2 and 5 are all-kill format, where our players have a lot of experience in. We consider those two rounds as our trump card.


Most obvious thing ever. Tell us something we don't know. Sorry, cannot do that. Okay then.
