He probably only plays custom games and never laddered.

haha pretty cool and they have chosen the features pretty well for the players. Flash promoting ladder anxiety will entertain everyone that knows a tiny bit about flash.

I love the lies in the video.
Flash: "Sometimes I get nervous on the ladder"
JD: "Sometimes I feel AI is playing better than me"
Those made me laugh.
Still good to see they're doing these promos. These nerds are definitely used to being in front of a camera.

(Remember Inside The Game's talk on how Koreans aren't very marketable? Stuff like this helps Koreans be more marketable, of course too bad the video was done without subs and for Korea mainly and not anywhere else. .)

Well this is a good way to do it (though IMO, they should also do an official subbed version for English viewers too).


How is it that "marketing" and "lying" became so closely intertwined? There is no way in hell that these guys care about leveling up or issuing commands to ai players. Advertising a product is one thing. Being dishonest is (or at least, should be) something else entirely.




"Lying" seems harsh, considering this is a business avenue. Three of the very best players of the franchise, endorsing the new features, and showing some humility is a great way to build a foundation for more years to come.

I don't think they were being completely genuine, but then again, I think the target audience was quite a bit younger than myself.

What, they couldn't dig up Bisu for this?


Maaaybe because of his lack of success recently? But still seems weird, yeah.


Bisu's main purpose these days is to be dug up for show matches and silly promotional stuff like this.


Didn't that happen to Savior after he started to suck? Oh delicious irony, let me taste his tears.

I would expect it more because he's an awkward communicator (according to that Boxer/Bisu interview a few years ago).. He's still the pretty boy of SKT, and that probably counts for something.

I don't know anything about korean culture, but I'm hoping the guys in this video are just using ironic humor. "AI plays better than me...Ladder makes me nervous" LOL.

You clearly don't really know or pretend not to know about "marketing" or "advertising"...

Being dishonest is quite common in advertising. Saying one thing while thinking another is very very common when you do advertisement.


Apple does that all the time, what are you talking about.

General rule is to not believe anything anybody says in promotions, take it from customer reviews

Michael Jordan still makes more in endorsements than almost everybody.

ROFL, this is just about the cheesiest thing imaginable.

Flash is too scared to play on the ladder...
...and Jaedong feels the AI is better than him...
You mean I just write stuff here and other people can see it?

People, its a promotion stunt, not a police interrogation with a lie detector.
I wonder if some of you freak out all the time you watch a commercial/promotion/advertisement.

it's a tongue in cheek poke at themselves, I thought it was awesome, they clearly don't intend this to be serious
