Except being good at a young age is even easier than it is being good at 18-25 because you can just play all day without any real consequence (other than social life) - kids have more free time than college students. It's honestly more impressive to me to see college students who are very skilled at the game like Suppy because they have to balance school and gaming and still reach a very high level. | ||

Yeah same here. Whatever happened to that Showtime anyways? I'm pretty sure I can recall some games of his from WoL beta, I think he played Zerg. | ||

I sometimes forget about FXO because you hear so little about them :/. Good luck to them that just joined! Most Korean teams don't make announcements about roster changes unless they are extremely significant. That's why so many team movements are (seem to be) broken on twitter, often by chance. It's really, really annoying. It's also why we're not sure if quite a number of players have retired or left teams and stuff when they aren't fielded in the GSTL for example without a lot of digging. | ||

These are amatuer players, have no results, never been in a team house ect, its as if EG or ROOT made a TL post for two high masters players joining their roster. however our current sponsorship's are based on things other than your traditional e-sports "impressions" for sponsors. so it is not a priority at the moment to put it all on our site, especially when we need to revamp the site in general. However last week we did start building a new website to be launched in a month or so since we will be announcing some new sponsorship's that do run via this model. | ||

I can't announce new players for FXO.NA since an announcement thread for FXO.NA was never made to begin with. I am currently working on one but our graphics designer is always busy so it keeps getting pushed back. | ||
