Shouldn't it... take longer for him to get good? It's not as though LoL just came out last year, he's seriously behind people who have been doing it professionally for years.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that MKP's back, but isn't it too early to have expected results from him?

well we never even saw him play in real official matches too in LoL because according to article, he was a back up member for team Prime. he must be real bad in LoL to be Prime's Back up team

If it does happen, Prime would have a halfway decent lineup with Creator, MKP, KassiA and Jila. Still would be weakest Proleague team but would have more of a shot. So I hope it does happen just for competitiveness reasons. But I wouldn't read too much into MKP's ladder ranking, he's always been better online than off.

Now imagine if Maru had never left Prime, and if they find Byun in their basement. The team would be kinda decent


They'd certainly be better, though you have to think back to GSTL 2013 S1 and recall that a MKP/Maru/ByuN/Creator lineup got stomped by practically every team (including NSH). Though to be fair, this is before Maru had his huge breakout during OSL, and Creator looked kind of helpless around the start of HotS; much worse than he does now in SPL.

What always confuses me is why did Prime never sign any players to replace Maru when he left? There's no shortage of strong teamless players out there, from KangHo to Oz/aLive/Revival... any one of those players would instantly be #1 or #2 on Prime. I guess the obvious answer is no money but if you don't have the money to afford anything better than Creator and a bunch of rookies... I don't know.

It does seem like Prime's always preferred to develop talent internally than to sign established players. ByuN is pretty much the only signing of an already-established player I can think of in Prime's history.

Bad timing. Terran not doing good.

Good news tho

If you look at the top tier terran players, there was only Innovation and Flash ("top tier") in code A. Maru didn't need to qualify and everyone else seems to be in wcs AM (lol). People complaining about code S need to realize that. I'm not happy with that many zerg and protoss players. In fact, my favorite matchup to watch is PvT. But Innovation often times loses to unexpected players (e.g. duckdeok) and Flash has been inconsistent for quite a while. Then, you have Daedalus in the map pool, which I assume is awful for terran, though probably not as awful as it is for protoss. So yeah, many of the terran players who would almost certainly be in code S aren't playing in GSL. So besides the obvious, I believe that's not a terran problem, but mostly lack of top tier terrans around along with a string of bad luck among lower leve terrans. The metagame seems unfavorable at the moment imo, though I think that's only when it come non-top terrans, but I don't think that alone is responsible for the current terran results

Fuck me, I don't even know how I made that mistake. Well I guess that's a hint that I need to go to sleep. Hope someone else write a better translation/summary soon.

He did a televised game. It was a fun event with some other famous LoL players and broadcasters.

But no official pro game in LoL

If there was a MarineKing vs Mvp finals, we'd all be winners!

The king already resides in Proleague, thanks.

Great to have another legend back. With his blind greed it could have been only PL or Wall Street.
