I think they more easily submit to the authority of the coach in the team houses there, especially since those coaches often have years of experience in progaming at either coaching or playing. To be honest, I suspect a lot of coaches to not really be helpful. For instance, for the transition to Starcraft 2, what is a Brood War coach going to tell that is useful? I think most players just ladder endlessly, the only thing that coaches do is to set schedules or encourage them to practice bad match-ups. I seriously don't think that's the case at all. There's certainly more to being a coach, just as there is more to sc2 than just skills and whatnot. | ||

Players like Major and Kas probably practices 2-3 times as much as Stephano, and has much less success. The reason they don't perform better is that they need even more practice. WIth terran you really need such insane mechanics to win. With zerg its more about great decisions. We can clearly see someone like Jaedong who has fantastic mechanics but bad decision making and thus isn't perforing as well as Stephano whos mechanics are worse. | ||

And yeah you are right in the sense that terran needs a lot of mechanical practice in order to be successful, but other than Kas and Happy back then I don't think the other terrans (LucifroN and ThOrZaIN) play as much per day. At least not in ladder, maybe they do in custom games. | ||

He has the mentality to do it. He actually quit WC3 only to come back to professional gaming for SC2, which was a shock to most people. | ||
