also bo1 is more volatile and map preparation/nerves; some players need a game or two to really get in their groove. sc2 has some more predominant racial imbalances as well. but this was true to bw as well, where people go in streaks/slumps or sometimes do well in 1 but fail at the other. | ||

receive incentives from winning a match (As far as I know STX players get like $500 per win) on the top of their salary. Thats why they work their asses off to prepare for proleague. | ||

Code S isn't really the best measurement of skill . You can't tell if a player is doing well or is in a slump until he actually plays his games . If everyone started from the offline preliminaries i would bet that the whole Code - S would look completely different . I think some players get lucky + practise solely for the maps to get in to Code - S in that one series on that one day they play . After that they get crushed in the RO32 in Code S by an equally prepared superior player . After the RO32 you can see who the real Code S players are . Proleague can tell you more how a player is doing overall , because he will play at least twice every week ( if he is any good) , and after a certain period of time , for example the end of round 3 before HOTS starts you can get an overall picture of who is exactly were in the rankings in WOL playing in Proleague . There are always players who would be good at one format and be bad at the other . For example Sea was the epitome of this. Dominated Proleague for years , but in individual leagues he made Ro8 once or so in BW . I think the biggest difference though are the maps if they were the same there would be no excuse why a player did bad , because they both practise equally on the same settings . | ||

Makes sence why they are doing worse in PL and better in individual leagues . | ||

For $20/month, all of the KeSPA teams can get an extensive catalog of almost every professional game the ESF players have played, and lots of the players being used in Proleague have almost no exposure outside of those weird BO1 games that get played a couple of times per week. Lol and for free you can get every pro league game since the players started lol | ||

They have been doing this for years in BW as well . There is enough sample size for both cases to get an overall feel for a player . | ||

 Oh? Did I take things out of context? Compared apples to oranges? Two different tournaments, two different results. MVP and Nestea never did that well in GSTL and they only really played during their early reign--they don't do that we'll in team league. JYP? He barely holds on to the middling sections of a tournament, never the favorite. Put him in team league and suddenly he's a consistent work horse. Nerves are much less of an issue unless you're at the ace match. | ||

No one comparing kespa players and ESF players but you.This is a thread about PROLEAGUE PLAYERS with/without code S badges. | ||
