Congrats State! The guy has sick potential, and being in a Korean training environment again could do wonders.

Good luck man!

does the Korean environment really even help?? honest question

It does when done well aka with a dedicated coach and more then a couple weeks.


Couple weeks is an understatement. I think in the first year players usually see no improvement at all, then if they keep at it they see an explosion of results. Happened with Idra (in BW), Huk, and Naniwa.

No, it's the mixture between having a maid doing all the housework so you can focus on starcraft, having a coach who supervises the training and being constantly surrounded by people who breathe and live starcraft. It's nothing the more wealthy western teams cannot do as well and has nothing to do with being in Korea.

You seem to have forgotten that those people who live and breath Starcraft are also generally better than all but 2 non-Koreans. The quality of opponents and the extent of the knowledge one has access to in a Korean teamhouse and on the (now latency-free) Korean ladder easily surpasses that of anything the foreign scene could create, outside of some kind of dream-team thing where all the foreign teams pool their players and money to create a teamhouse populated by the hand-picked best foreigners.
