omg, i was thinking about Coca this morning..this has to be six sense lol.

well, i don't think they can make a big impact. the choice they made after all the slayers drama is not quite pro. anyway, still happy to see these guys coming back.

The grass is not always greener on the other side huh.

With so many people playing LoL i can't imagine it's easy to get to become a pro player and make a living. (even though any one who does not like LoL say's the game is easy ofc)

I do hope CoCa comes back, always found him a talented zerg player.

With a game being very easy, it just makes it harder to stand out from the rest of the players, because even if you're good, there is tons of other players, which are just as good as you.

At one point when Puzzle won Code A I thought he's gonna be the new MC. Then I felt that they are really "weak" so to say, because switched without trying too hard to compete with KeSPA.

Hopefully they'll try harder now.

I kind of wish that they don't come back. Or rather, I'm scared of what will happen if they come back. Unless someone here knows how they're doing at this point in time in SC2 - I'm just worried they'll be really shit and skill-less at SC2, because they went full-time on LoL. I have good memories of both Coca and Puzzle in SC2, I don't want that tarnished!

that's definietly not the case. the argument is so overplayed and stupid. if you are very good, people will take notice as long as you are at a top of some kind of ladder or constantly play with really good players.

it's the same in sc2. if you are actually good, people will give you some attention. humans overall have a very good eye for talent and know trash when they see it, which is why some top ladder players are pretty much ignored.

Miya said in an interview during wcs that puzzle was complaining that he can't keep up with kespa I'm concerned about that but maybe a new team will give him a new work ethic.

Coca had an absolutely ridiculous zvp record at one point right?

Yeah he was known as a ZvP expert at one time.


He started his GSL career with something like a 10 game ZvP win streak. He also had a losing streak just as long in ZvZ...

He never really has the same magic when he came back from his suspension and I feel that the time off really created this huge myth of what might have been. But honestly outside of ZvP (which he was amazing at) he was an above average player, and a possible contender if the stars aligned (but no way he would have come close to beating Jjakji that season).

Edit: the Code S group with Nada Keen Alicia Coca was probably one the most fun I've seen though with all the ceremonies and grudge matches (not just keen Nada, but practically every combination of players was a rematch too).

Not quite, sorry to burst your bubble. You have pretty much no way of showing people how good you are, unless you are able to show yourself to the public and with just streaming, it really is not possible for most of the players. If you want recognition, you need to do something extraordinary, something people will notice and if everybody is on the same level as you are and considered good, then why should people be interested in you and not the X other players, who are just as good as you.

People don't even remember the 2nd places of big tournaments, some even don't remember one time winners.

I wonder how many god Koreans, better than 90% of all players from Europe are out there, trying to slay each other for the GSL, but cannot quite make it because they are not alone competing. And we have not heard about any of them.

Yup, he was fantastic until that awful awful awful awful awful awful decision by SlayerS/GSL to kick him out of Code S. Would love to have him back


slayers 100% ruined arguably the top zerg at the time. Atleast top zvp iirc.


Oh please not this again.
